Sakawochi Devlog #2 - All to waste


Version 0.2.11 is now live on Gamejolt

Changes:

  • New feature: Earn some coins by collecting plastic waste that floats through the tank.

  • Fixed a bug that prevented the activation of the fish food button when only crabs were in the tank.

  • Fixed a bug that limited the size bar of fish to about 3/4 of its full size.

  • Reduced price for decorations.

  • Reworked the localization system to make it easier to add new languages

Welcome to the first update after the release last week.

I had to push this update a little earlier as intended since the bug in the fish food button could have broken the game for those of you, who sold all their blow fish for a single crab.

I hadn’t got any time to create a tutorial for the new mini game about earning some extra cash by collecting floating plastic waste but i’m pretty sure you’ll be able to figure it out yourself. Just pick up all the waste floating through your aquarium. When the trash can is full you earn a coin.

In the version prior to the release fish food wasn’t a limited resource. Players could buy as many fish as they liked and so earn an exponentially growing amount of coins. This problem got solved with the introduction of snails so that I was able to lower the prices for decoration drastically.

Unfortunately the popularity of the game can only be described as disastrous. In the course of the week after publishing there were just 11 views of the game page and 0 downloads. The number of views is falling day by day since the game left the “Recently added” page.

If you like Sakawochi please spread the word!

With the background work done for further localisations I’ll be working on additional translations for the next update and a new little critter for you to care for:

Sakawochi Devlog #3 - Long live the community!

Been working lately on lots of 'behind-the-scenes' boring stuff that no one really cares about, so here’s a guy playing the sax for some reason.

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)

Spaaaace~

These are background sprites I've created for a game I'm working on at school ^w^ Click on the post to see how the sprites connect. You won't regret it! (personally, I think it's pretty heheh)

Drawn in Piskel using my mouse. Whaddya think?

Some time ago, we posted a screenshot of the Mexico level. A curiosity about it is that, like some other scenarios of the game, it was inspired by a real landscape, The Basaltic Prisms of Santa María Regla. It is one of the natural wonders of the country!

New Teasers!
