So, if #GJAsks… we’ll answer!

Question: our favorite #mobilegame

Mobile games and their ads were a big inspiration for SuperWEIRD, especially Whiteout Survival. The current browser version, which we'll show soon, still carries traces of that inspiration.

We tried not to overcomplicate the game, even using mobile games as a reference to keep it simple…

But here’s what a normal game situation looks like now… it’s #automation, baby!

A #survival game where single-use #robots turn out to be surprisingly useful... or at least try their bast to be.

Happy #WIPWednesday! Are you working on a game? Making some art? Practicing a song? Something else? Tell us in the comments!

We decided to change how robots look in our game, which… die from lack of work.

Most robots are disposable—they do a single task and die… but sometimes there’s no task.

We wanted to make this event a bit sweeter for the player. Hope we succeeded.

Your worst nightmare is alive ... Coming soon !

And here we’re testing upgrades. The idea is that different NPCs will help the player upgrade different systems in the game… but we haven’t drawn that part yet, so for now it looks like this.
