Alive Again - platforms and future releases


The game development is going a little slower than I planned due to varius stuff that takes my time in the afternoon, but anyway I thought I’d share a little info on what platforms the game will run.

I write it using the Löve engine, which (if you take a look at their website) runs on nearly anything including the kitchen sink, or at least GNU/Linux, Windows and Mac. There are also ways to run games written for it on a couple of mobile platforms (android) and as a website widget.

My main focus is going to be on the 3 desktop platforms, especially GNU/Linux as that is my main system (yes, really, I use OpenSUSE, it’s awesome :-) ). I will however also publish the game package as a plain “love” file that can be used on other platforms as long as the engine is installed there.

So that’s it for the supported platforms. You can take a peek at the project site, but beware of potential spoilers (in the blueprints section). There’s not much code to look at yet (ok, there is nearly none :-P ), but by the end of the month I think I’ll have something that runs, just don’t count on it to be pretty just yet :-).

I promise to bring a more or less real first version until the end of June. I hope I’ll manage to keep this promise, stay tuned.

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.

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

We made a lot of improvements on the Freezing Plains visual. Things like pine trees, tiny bushes, some rocks, and others game props!

Have a good Boi

I have added rewards for quests so that villagers can give you something in return for your hard work helping them. 🥳

I want to know - what's your favourite quest reward?

Quantum precognition is one of the most powerful cards. End game cards & equipment. Demo/alpha build boss is no match for this deck.

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

Just a Pico sprite

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)

Call it 'wrong turn'!🚫 The feeling of running into a house with only one exit🚪, and being doomed to die. #pixelart #pixelartist #pixelartwork #art #pixel #indiegame #IndieGameDev #indieartist
