At 2 in the morning, I updated the game onto GameJolt for the first time. The reason I waited till 2 is because I felt the need to balance audio levels, fix a level bug, two image bugs, move something to be better visible, replace the title theme with a song that had only just passed though post production, and updated the end-of-game text. While I wasn’t able to add more content to such a short game, all of the minor errors from the true jam version have been fixed and I feel more relaxed knowing less of the music is taken from Capcom. Eventually I want the entire soundtrack to be 100 percent created and owned by Otyugra Games. I do plan to add more content soon, though the game is in a completed state otherwise.

It is funny to think I wouldn’t have done any of that (uploading here, updating the game) if it wasn’t for this game being featured in a Fireside blog post! It seemed like a really great chance to introduce new people to a jam game that I poured my soul into, no pun intended.

Surprise everyone! Not only are we alive, we decided to work on this game again! I'm teaching myself to use Unity Engine by remaking Snake Pit, and this time, there'll be new content and upgraded RGB graphics.

A screenshot of the upcoming version 1.1.0 contrasted with the current version:

Shoobies leave a sticky trail of mucus in their wake, which can impede movement for any creature that steps in it.

Updated the chest in the maze, adding sound, particles and better animation. But what's in the chest?

Sometimes the suction cup get sticky. Small animation I made in Blender after doing my tutorial on picking up/dropping objects in animations. Crate model by jQueary (https://sketchfab.com/3d-models/game-ready-sci-fi-crate-d98deca6…).

In the quest for accessibility, I'm adding Resurrection Shrines for players on the 'novice' end of the platforming spectrum.

In order to unlock the power of a Shrine, you must collect 3 'Souls' from your dead corpses! (the floating blue orbs)
