It's Bunlith: The Witch Upstairs 📅 EPISODE 1 NOW AVAILABLE TO WATCH ON KICKSTARTER! Watch Now!! 📺 www.kickstarter.com/projects/bun...

Coyote Time (letting the player jump a bit after they leave the ground) is huge for gamefeel. Combine with Jump Buffer (executing a jump once they land if they pressed it a bit early) to maximize. Bonus: spawn the jump particle at the last grounded position to hide the coyote time :) #gamedev

someone had asked what it looked like if you removed the lovely rigged model and animations and I can confirm it's very funny

Thank you all for the incredible support on this post! This is a project I've been wanting to make for a decade now, so seeing all the loving responses has truly been incredible. ^^ With that said, the sneak peek's now on YouTube too, if you wanna see it in 60fps! www.youtube.com/watch?v=S4Yw...

Couldn't be more proud of how well this is turning out. It's been really fun to work on this with @benjamage.bsky.social and the rest of the CaliCrew!!

easily near the top of my current most anticipated games.

IRL footage of us schmoovin

critics are calling it the dumbest thing he's ever spent ten minutes making

It's rare that I enjoy a 2D platformer as much as I did this one. Been following this project for a long time - backed on KS after their super promising demo and am stoked to see the final release coming so soon!

participated in a speedrun contest for @unsentgames.bsky.social and when a fellow runner discovered a route-shattering OOB strategy 50 minutes before the deadline the race was on and at literally 11:59pm I hit this run heart was beating out of my chest - former WR was 1m27s insanity starts at :47

I got to chat these guys' ears off for a few hours - if you wanna hear about Slime 64, my inspirations as a game designer, and all sorts of other shenanigans, come through! youtu.be/RJHM7DL_ygs?...

every day at work I curse myself from the last night for not going to bed at a reasonable time every night I finally achieve hyperfocus on one of my non-work projects and can't bear to break it before pushing it as far as I can and so the cycle repeats

we couldn't agree more

Is that who I think it is? 👀

platformerheads the world over, prepare yourself for a game that presents True, Uncompromising Gameplay: Slime 64 this Thursday, we will be interviewing the Man behind the Game @waveparadigm.com if you have forgotten what it means to enjoy playing a game, this will remind you

okay someone smarter than me help me understand I've made old games in some of these impacted versions that run locally and offline. what's the threat vector here - someone with an already compromised machine could somehow have one of these versions used to gain higher authority?

easily one of the best games I played at PAX. think VVVVVV x Celeste with a surrealist thriller vibe. super excited for this

Everyone should wish the happiest of birthdays to my one and only, @runningsomeerins.bsky.social. here's to the next 30 💙💙💙

PAX was an incredible experience. Got to meet so many amazing people, the reception to @mrsleepyman.bsky.social was exactly what we were hoping to see, got to show off some Slime 64, and finally met @myles.zone IRL after 15 years!!! Now it's time to sleep for 1000 years. 😅

PAX day 0 complete!! booth setup is looking great and super excited for the coming days now excuse me as I go collapse for 12 straight hours

chuckling about this dunking QT from Twitter at its heart I do understand the criticism that we don't follow the technical limitations of the N64, but I hope the combo of our art direction, character design, music/sound design, and overall Vibes show our love for the N64😅 Sloppy Adventures.....

🚨🚨SLIME 64 REVEAL TRAILER🚨🚨 Join us for a 3D collect-a-thon platformer starring elemental slimes who combine their powers and collect Bells & Whistles to defeat an evil robotic enterprise. Super excited to finally show a first look at the full game. More to come! Wishlist on Steam! slime64.com

in any case, the difference between "time you enjoy wasting" and "time you spend in a carefully balanced state of just enough enjoyment to not do anything else" is something we could try to examine some more

This is my biggest pet peeve in any game 😅

I see this in games all the time, and it always takes me out of whatever it is that I'm reading.

I needed to be in bed two hours ago, but this game got its hooks in DEEP.

"Öoo" the bomb caterpillar exploration puzzle platformer, is out now! 🎉 Dive into an adventure packed with discovery and clever puzzles, we hope you enjoy it! 👇 store.steampowered.com/app/2721890/...

ADHD is getting so much joy out of building and art and gardening you hyperfocus and give yourself mild carpal tunnel

okay this is rad

no cheating post your lock screen @runningsomeerins.bsky.social made this really awesome promo art for Slime 64 for a vertical banner we bring to shows and I absolutely adore it

I keep thinking about this one

Spent a bit over a week putting something very silly together for the Eridium s&box Showcase! Been very happy with the reception to it! Now back to work on Slime 😅

Aight. Figured out the cam in #DonkeyKongBananza Looks like a regular 3rd person cam with collision detection on when in an open space… [1/4] #GameDev #TechDesign #Camera #Nintendo

Last year I put together a Devlog cataloging four years of Slime 64's development. It's been over a year since then and the game has made a ton of progress, but I've had a hard time balancing "Actually Making the Game" with Content Creation. Hoping to make more videos soon! youtu.be/v3vqrvnaRjk

Playtonic learned pretty quick that they HAD a really good social media person/people that they took for granted lol the before/after of their socials has been...stark. glad they're hiring for the role but painful to see - my heart aches for their former social media manager

are there any robust Vertex Color-based workflows in modern game engines (Unity, Godot)? We "cheat" and leverage modern lighting due to doing our level building using tools in-engine and prefab'd models, and don't model/texture levels externally. I'd love to be able to just "paint over" geo...
