No Sleep Till Beta


We’ve been wrapping up Alpha for the month of September with just a few additions. Several more are to come, but here is what’s been implemented in convenient bullet-point fashion!

  • New art for Platform 5, with some new level design changes.

  • Trains on Platform 5 will collide with players and deal damage.

  • Main platforms will flash brighter when landed on, and bounce a little bit too.

  • Additional FX added to explosions, making explosions more explosiony.

  • Level thumbnails updated.

  • Moon Base Bravo art updated.

  • Tweaks to bomb physics done for the meantime.

  • Pause menu updated

  • Camera zooms in to victorious player at the end of a round.

As you can see, most of these are just aesthetic polish, which is good! That means that we’re done with major mechanical adjustments to Bombasm. Next month we’ll be adding parallax camera, auto-patching for Beta, minor design and technical tweaks, and possibly dynamic 2D lighting (maybe).

The new Beta version will be on sale at a discount by the end of October on the gamejolt marketplace and itch.io.

Cheers governor,

EDIT: Artist Joshua Gong whipped up some feisty new art for Beta. Real cool, but hidden to your eyes for now ;)

We are under attack!

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

Here's a peaceful little forest scene for this #screenshotsaturday, from the beginning of the game.

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

Finished work on the emotions of a new character for the tank universe

Spaaaace~

These are background sprites I've created for a game I'm working on at school ^w^ Click on the post to see how the sprites connect. You won't regret it! (personally, I think it's pretty heheh)

Drawn in Piskel using my mouse. Whaddya think?

I mostly build 3D First Person Shooter game mechanics in Unity, and in this I'm just showing C4 mechanics I made for a little side project I am working on! :)
