Blob Person's development has progressed a fair bit since our last demo update, so I'll go over the biggest changes here.
HATS
Blob Person likes hats, and there are hats hidden throughout each level. They are equipped through the pause menu. Exploration is encouraged
BATS (or lack thereof)
Blob Person's bat has been cut from the game. This decision was made because the bat wasn't adding anything fun to the game, and removing this mechanic meant certain things needed to be re-worked for the better. for example, you can now aim your slingshot with the right mouse button (or left trigger for controller players)
Throwing
Throwing has been overhauled to work better with the puzzles in later levels. Now you can aim where you throw items more precisely by holding the right mouse button with an item in your hand.
Other changes
- Gliders have been removed from level 2. This is the start of a larger re-work of the level.
- Replacing the gilders, are grind rails. these will appear throughout the game
- Visual improvements. Our art has been updated with more complex shaders and geometry. Most notably on the rocks
- Story teasers. There are now a few hints of Blob Person's story throughout the game.

in 2019 Inverted Games made Lazer Lynx for the Epic Mega Jam, and it got an honourable mention from Epic Games! It's a puzzle game about getting tied to a chair by your co-workers at the space station, and only having a laser pointer and a cat to save you
Why climb up a mountain when you can jump into a volcanic vent and launch yourself up the mountain instead?
Blob Person loves hats, and there's a surprising amount of free hats lying around these blob corpses. Probably nothing to worry about...
Madeline is the main protagonist of the mountain climbing platformer, Celeste. The game has been praised for its visuals, gameplay, and introspective narrative. The game's creator Maddy Thorson confirmed that Madeline is trans in 2020.
Been messing about with the time travel mechanic to see what kind of puzzles we can make.
Happy Video Game Day!
July 8 is Video Game Day, a holiday that's obviously close to our hearts at Game Jolt.

Wow. Apotheosis is now the most downloaded game I've ever made. Between here and itch. io, it's received over 800 downloads
I completely broke my game while speed running it
Spent the past few days refining Blob Person's mechanics. Now Blob Person's got skillz
