Hey everyone, fun story.

---------------------------

TL;DR - Released a game that I had a dream about 2 weeks ago and it's available for $1!
---------------------------

You know how sometimes you have a dream that fixes a bug in your game?

I had a dream about a full game that I prototyped, coded, polished, and released in two weeks time. It felt surreal, it felt interesting, but most of all, it felt attainable!

So two weeks ago, I started a new Unity project. A 2D isometric puzzle game! I've never made a puzzle game before and its turns out that it's not an easy task.

The kicker for this game was that I had already done everything once, all the art felt like I was remaking it. All of the code felt like it was being typed again, as if I already went through the motions for this game. It was literally straight deja vu for the last 14 days.

This past Friday, we launched the game! "stopDrop." is a 30-level 2D isometric minimalistic survival-puzzle game where you have to reach the exit and outlive all of your opponents. Every move you make requires 1 health and also makes everyone else move (and takes 1 health from them too).

It's available on Game Jolt for PC/Linux with a super high price of $1 here -> https://gamejolt.com/games/stopdrop/514965

We actually just released a release day hotfix patch as well, addressing some key concerns in the game. We're also planning on adding free DLC worlds to the game too!

Thanks for reading guys!

this gentle old man asked for help. How could i say no 🌸

at the comments add (dialogue's not quite ready yet, it will all be in place by the demo, promise🤞)

So

i may or may not make an full art of some person or i may just leave this like that-

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.
