Smart loading, zero immersion break. In Lobo: The Howl Within, I’m using narrow passage mechanics to stream levels seamlessly in and out—no loading screens, just smooth exploration.

Heavy attacks come at a cost.

In Lobo, using brute force puts enemies into aggro mode — drawing their full attention and making the fight harder. Sometimes charging in isn't the best move… or is it?

Not every door in Lobo: The Howl Within is meant to be opened… Some require keys, quests, or ancient light-fueled lore. Others? They’re not keeping you out—they’re keeping something in.

Here’s a look at the new door interaction system.

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.

🎮 Sneak, strike, survive. Just added synced animations for stealth kills, finishers, and perfect counters in Lobo: The Howl Within ⚔️

Each move adapts to your timing and positioning—making every encounter feel brutal and satisfying.

Game Jolt Colors is back!

Draw your OC (or favorite character) in the Game Jolt color palette and post them in the Art realm with the tag #GameJoltColors25.

At the end of the event, we'll pick a winner & add their design to the GJ Colors sticker pack!

I refined the combat in Lobo: The Howl Within—smoother transitions, better animation blends, and improved camera work!

As a solo dev, I stitched together 4 animation packs from 3 creators to make it feel like one cohesive system.

Need a break from the madness? 🔥🪑 Now in Lobo: The Howl Within, you can rest at campfires, chairs, or cozy beds to recover your vitals faster. Resting places are in—and they’re essential for survival.

Dive into the cozy post-apocalyptic open world of Critter Cove!

Gentleman Rat Studios (@GR-Rob ) describe it as “a little bit Animal Crossing, a little bit Stardew Valley. Maybe even a little bit Windwaker, too."

Random death animations + ragdoll chaos = satisfying variety ⚔️💀 In Lobo: The Howl Within, no two enemy deaths feel the same—thanks to randomized anim montages and ragdoll physics. It’s messy. It’s fun. It’s game dev.
