Big teaser but I've been working on a 'boomer shooter creator'. It comes with a sprite editor, a sound creator, a map editor and even visual scripting. You can create/play games, share them on Steam Workshop or... export to Godot! ✨ More on that soon.

Interplay Entertainment circa 1985 .... And yes poor Alan catches grief for his zebra jacket to this day.

We begun to test some things on socials just to see if we can reach the audience who likes this games. I’m not so much into shorts on YouTube but I heared from many people now that they discovered games there. The trailer in portrait mode works much better than I expected youtube.com/shorts/5hYqa...

I added two new features: Undo and adding suns for long matches. And now I created a time loop paradox. I'm not sure if this is causes issues. As I'm treating my demo a bit like an early access version, I will push this the next days to see what people do with it. store.steampowered.com/app/3010870

I had an idea to connect more game systems. When you match now more than 3 plants you get sun energy. Each tool usage costs one sun. So now you have one more layer of consideration when matching. Do you need the space, the matches OR try to extend your tool usage? store.steampowered.com/app/3010870

Omg omg omg. I looking forward to this. youtu.be/hSLE5Psfs6U?...

Tomorrow the trailer for the Muppet Show gets released. I have to admit, I’m excited and hope this will become a real thing and enough people will watch the show when it comes out. I would love a new Muppet Show especially in the current times. youtu.be/jd3Qqly1eks?...

I‘m also very happy with the haptic feeling of the „button“. As all the tools where drag and drop so far, it was not feeling right having a classical button you just press. This seems to work better than expected. And it feels nice. store.steampowered.com/app/3010870/...

Or even better a compromise with a blend:

Sunday was a bit sad. But the day before was a sadder day!

The VHS effect I had for my UNDO in Match Tree before, didn't feel right. I tried another one I like much more. For people with motion sickness issues: Is this already too much? Would I need a accessibility toggle to deactivate this? How would it be called if so? #gamedev #indiedev #accessibility

After several days of work, I have finally a new tool implemented: UNDO!! Soon I will open a test branch in my Match Tree Demo to give it to some people to test. This is very exciting! store.steampowered.com/app/3010870

UNDO is the most wished feature in the Match Tree Demo. But as I havn't designed for it, it was hard to get it working. So many edge cases. The sheep hill was especially difficult. The gif might be confusing when you dont know the game. But it makes me very happy! store.steampowered.com/app/3010870

The Linux version of Match Tree runs so much better on the Steam Deck than I expected. And you can play with touch very well. This makes me so happy!!

My talk at #UnrealFest Stockholm on #ControlRig physics in #UnrealEngine has just been released: youtu.be/HennjwB6zZ8?...

Update of our little octopus who we named Rori. This became insanely fun! And thanks to the physics control in UE5 we got him on a level that's beyond the initial idea. Your brain seems to complete the gaps of missing haptic. I could nearly feel him. youtu.be/Zu0StKPAyvs

Happy little accidents. Barry and me met at an OceanX Hackathon and we kept tinkering with immersive ideas. Both of us wanted to explore a VR experience mainly for our own fun and to learn. I wanted to see how far we can push character physics on the Meta Quest in #UE5 using an octopus.

Crazy. I’m tinkering with a small screen for VR featuring octopods. And while trying to push the interactivity they became fully physicalized using Physics Control in @unrealengine.bsky.social Now I exchanged their movement also with forces and the result feels very believable. (Don’t do this IRL)

This is pretty cool if you look for a publisher, investor or any other help releasing your game: publisherpathfinder.com

Ich mach regelmäßig Werbung für gute Tools wie @codecks.bsky.social im Stream. Und das sogar multilingual! Dieser Post ist aber eigentlich nur dafür da, dass ihr das Spiel wishlisted. store.steampowered.com/app/3010870/ Und noch nen call for action: Welche tools findet ihr gut? #marketingkannich

Escape Rooms HATE the Melone Twins.

It's weird to see your game in a language you do not speak. I decided to translate Match Tree into 10 languages. Store and ingame. There are still challenges in regards of fonts and such. But @godotengine.org makes it quite easy so far! I might even try Arabic! store.steampowered.com/app/3010870

It’s a wrap 😔

I love our breakable floors.

It’s sunny somewhere.

It’s a bit cold but it’s also quite and nice.
