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!

I was bored, so... ManutKat.

Back in my art school days I used to ride the 710 COPSA line from Parque Del Plata to Montevideo almost everyday. This is the Marcopolo Viaggio G4 Mercedes Benz model from the late 80s, one of the older bus models that was running on the line.
