Peep this brand new(-ish) October Trailer of Warding Witches. Despite its early prototype state, I'm really proud of how it currently looks and plays already. Apart from that, very happy to announce that 🗿Headup Games will be publishing the game! On to new heights ✨

Hey! I'm Sonorode - I make noise and code witchy bullets. I make ⚡EDM and 🎮VGM, but here on bluesky, you'll predominantly see posts and dev insights about my bullet hell shoot 'em up Warding Witches ✨🧹 Come join the discord if you're interested in either!

Highscores for POLARIS convention 2025! TONS of players 😍 If you see yourself or a friend in the scores, feel free to tag! #wardingwitches #polarisconvention #shmup

I think my composer mixed up the tracks for the main menu theme... (SOUND ON 🎶) #BattleWrinceOfBelAir #SteamNextFest #indiedev #solodev #indiegames #Battlewrights

Awesome thread by a great and loyal player who came to my booth to play Warding Witches every day at POLARIS! ✨🧹 We met in Bavaria, that's on the other side of the country! Warms my heart to see that people enjoy my silly little project this much Thanks for the support Nico 🫶

Bla bla Next Fest If you find yourself with your friends on a couch anytime soon, I suggest you try this fun little Couch PVP game with music by yours truly! 🎶 Think Towerfall 🏹 x The Axe from God of War. Big fun, simple yet deep, shmove on your friends. free Demo! #nextfest #steamnextfest

Dieses Wochenende durfte ich ein wirklich super vielversprechendes Spiel auf der Polaris ausprobieren: WARDING WITCHES vom lieben Paul (@sonorode.com). Wenn euch actiongeladene vertikale Shmups mit einem gut durchschaubaren Skilltree Spaß machen: Wishlisten! store.steampowered.com/app/3536520/...

Exhibiting at POLARIS in Hamburg, Germany this weekend. Look at this beautiful cabinet ✨💅 #indie #indiedev #gamedev #shmup #stgshmup

At GG Bavaria 2025, Paul Nguyen, a solo developer and game music composer, presented his current hobby project in an impromptu performance. Headup discovered the project there and signed it up. It's a local Munich indie success story. @headup.bsky.social www.gamesmarket.global/business/hea...

Umitober day 10! A Cruel Eagle's Thesis #Umitober2025 #Umitober

what I do when I'm not programming bullet hell games or playing bullet hell video games? play tabletop bullet hell games of course #bullet

By now, you know the drill. Hamburg's gonna be warded up. Catch #wardingwitches at POLARIS convention (@polarisconvention.bsky.social) and try out stage 1 in the brand new CURSED difficulty, as well as 2-Player coop! Come by and say hi ✨🧹

75% of 2025 is about to be over, and looking back I've had some amazing opportunities to exhibit #wardingwitches. One of them was LEVEL UP Salzburg, truly unforgettable and such a great event, Austria got game ngl Seeing people react positively to playing a #shmup always puts a smile on my face 🥰

times sure have changed. Riding the train to the German shmup event. Overhearing two soldiers (German military), one is explaining honkai star rail to the other. 😄 The other says "this guy looks like Kirito"

Proud to announce that The Murder Hotel is out on Steam! If "ace attorney x Danganronpa x umineko" piques your interest, check out the demo✂️ OST by yours truly, with additional tracks by other talented musicians! Loved working on this one, what a journey with @wegenbartho.bsky.social ✌️

Today's a big day.

Kid was playing Mushihimesama Futari (one of the GOAT shmups and an inspiration to mine), then saw Warding Witches and said to his friend "Look, this one is newer!" - played it - "this is way better!!" 🥹🥰

Courtesy of the arcade gamesroom at Connichi (thanks @prinnytonic.munichfgc.de 🙏 ) #wardingwitches is going to be part of the arcade games lineup among shmups, rhythm & fighting games! If you happen to be at Connichi, come check out the brand new 2-player coop mode with a friend (or a stranger).

8 more days until he can no longer refuse ... #Indiegamedev

what are they guarding

I present to you - the third playable character for #Battlewrights - the COOK! #Battlewrights #indiegame #indiegamedev #gamedev #localmultiplayer #pixelart #Godot #Steam

Wir haben ein Date auf der @connichi.de! Freitag um 19:45 Uhr nehme ich euch mit auf eine Reise durch die Bar- und Drinking-Welt von Japan. Verkostet wird nichts. Aber als Experte im Feld des "Lecker Bierchens" verspreche ich euch feucht-fröhliches Edu-Tainment. www.connichi.de/workshops/oi...

game genres are so fuzzy and confusing...what's an Action Adventure game?? what do you actually do in an RPG?? to fix this, i got together with loads of my lovely friends to create a much more descriptive classification system. all games can be neatly placed into the New Genres

Went to the local Pizza Playtest again yesterday to validate a new feature. Local Co-op lives! ✨🧹 #gamedev #indiedev #shmup #wardingwitches #couchcoop #multiplayer

Shoutout to my buddy @sonorode.com (check out his game Warding Witches!) who is expertly demonstrating this level of the singleplayer time trial mode ♥️ (inspired by Smash's target practice) #indiegame #indiegamedev #speedrunning #gamedev #pixelart #Battlewrights #GodotEngine

DIY > AI

LEVEL UP Salzburg's indie area had a cool mini game where visitors would get a token, which they can give to the game they liked most out of all. So heartwarming to see so many people come by and give me their coin 🥹 Also, it was kind of reminiscent of arcades

Thanks to everyone who stopped by the booth at LEVEL UP Salzburg! First time #WardingWitches was on tour abroad and it was a bullet hell blast :) The most rewarding aspect about these conventions is the emotions of the players, especially when they manage to beat the demo. Blessed 🫶✨🧹

Kids are brutal Sits down to play warding witches I'm like you need instructions? he says no, skips the tutorial and plays Dies three times in 15 seconds, gets up and leaves without a word

Starting off strong on the first day! met tons of lovely people as always

If anyone's near or in Salzburg this weekend - come play #WardingWitches in the indie games area of LEVEL UP Gaming Festival in Austria! Proud to be exhibiting there. Possibly the last chance to earn a stylish tote bag, and the first time you can cop Talia stickers!

Found 1€ on the street. Will buy ice cream with that later 😊

Make sure your RPG battle transitions, scene composition, and attack animations are at least as cool as this Taiwanese DOS RPG from 1995

Took the time to draw a new #oc of mine, since the old one is oretty depressing haha
