Game Details!


“Better late than never,” said someone once.

Gamejam devs have to walk a fine line when rewarding players with content, particularly if they want their audience to say things like “didn’t see that coming”. With my entry, Ravenous, Ravenous Ravens, I opted not to explain one of the key features of the game (“Stopping the Light”), in order to reward the more skilled players with surprising spawns.

But in a jam like #IndiesVsGamers with several hundred entries, players often don’t have the time for a second playthrough. Combine this with the false impression of difficulty devs can get through rapid playtesting, and it can be a recipe for confusion, boredom, and unseen content.

Thus, I’ve added information about the Light/Reward system, which includes many of the game’s references to the “Arcade” genre (the jam’s theme). Spawnables include a ball-chomping Pac-Man character,
cameos from Asteroids and Pong, and more.

For the full list of rewards, check out the Game Description here.

Did you know that today is #InternationalJazzDay? 🎷😎

No? 😯 Well, we couldn't pass up this date!

And what better to celebrate this day than #Pecaminosa #OST? 🎷

Let us know what you think about it and have a great weekend!

Enemies can also suddenly spawn through Realm Rifts. These Rift Spawns are going to be stronger than the ones wandering around. TBD on the enemies... #screenshotsaturday #godstear #madewithunity

Finished a project I've been working on over the last few days!

Modeled and textured in Blender.

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)

One of the most critical update for Sunblaze demo. Now you are able to pet a cat! Finally!

Horror WIP A track that will be featured in a future horror game soundtrack! Stay tuned!

Animation test. Not an actaul conclusion to who wins sonic vs Mario. Just a test animation combo.

ooh yes..

It's now possible to destroy some of the obstacles and gain access to new locations or create shortcuts. #gamedev #indiegame #rpg
