#StarSpark is a roguelite, turn-based fighting game heavily inspired by DBZ: Legendary Super Warriors.

It has a short web demo up on itch and I'd love to get your feedback on what I have so far.

It really is. I actually only played through Control years ago because I heard it had Alan Wake based DLC 😂 I’m glad AW2 delivered (especially with its own DLC).

Alan Wake goes hard and you’re correct.

I’ve been fortunate enough to not see them anymore since writing in twice about it, but I hate that they’re still showing them at all, even after Hangman and others expressed their thoughts on it :/

Oooh nice. They have good bread.

An ongoing phishing campaign is targeting LastPass and Bitwarden users with fake emails claiming that the companies were hacked, urging them to download a supposedly more secure desktop version of the password manager.

Yeah, the lead up to the Avengers was neat, but the continued fracturing of it all just made it that much harder to follow and DC really didn't need to go that route.

While I liked this season of Peacemaker overall (it wasn't awful), I felt like I was just waiting for something that never happened.

Jeremy // Making Star Spark @jeremyjackson.bsky.social · 1d

Despite being such a stressful situation, you all handled that really well. Great work!

You’re doing great, keep it up!

Jeremy // Making Star Spark @jeremyjackson.bsky.social · 2d

Thanks, yours also looks nice and polished! 🙇‍♂️

I wasn’t close to ready then either, maybe for the next one though.

I'm in the same spot, but I'll wait for a bit -- I don't have a demo and I'm not gonna be featured in Next Fest. Are you participating in Next Fest this week?

My first thought was “what, already?” The ps5 did launch 5 years ago but between the pandemic, shortages, and pricing it sure doesn’t feel like it. I know it’ll be 7 years at that point, but yeesh, still won’t feel like it, eh?

Both PS6 and the next Xbox are planned for a 2027 release, according to separate reports.

Yeah, I’m gonna wait. Sucks a bit, but I’d rather it didn’t get drowned out immediately.

Jeremy // Making Star Spark @jeremyjackson.bsky.social · 2d

I submitted Star Spark’s Steam page for approval Friday. Given that Next Fest is this week, I should probably wait until sometime next week before launching the page, eh?

There’ll be tons of games with demos vying for attention this week, probably best to wait 😅

She mentions her complexion, is it a joke about acne? Then again, she also doesn’t know :)

This week I...

- got the Thug sprite in game
- finished announcement trailer for Steam
- submitted the Steam page for review

There's still more to do, but it's nice to finally be at this point.

While providing tech support for my FIL:

FIL: What's that screen?

ME: The terminal. You should never use it.

FIL: Never?

ME: So you know how I'm allowed to watch you open the electrical panel and swap out breakers, but I'm not allowed to ever open up it myself?

FIL: Ah! I understand, thank you.
