I'll be at the @retrogamingexpo.bsky.social with the @pigsquad.com! Come see me on Sunday, October 19th and be one of the first to play The Spectral Web: Yuurei! I'll showcase its Fragmented Randomizer, which stitches together a selection of over 70 zones into one big map.

Testing some mechanics with the new Beam spell.
There's still some cleanup to be done, and juice to add, but the mirrors and prisms are pretty fun!

One of the fun things about Yuurei is the variety of different spells and characters. Here's Will utilizing his flame form signature and other abilities to claim a new attack spell.

As part of making a nicer level editor, I built a list of enemies that happens to serve as a neat mini bestiary.

The Spectral Web: Yuurei's Machine Tower features four floors based on different metals. Welcome to the gold floor!

Gold is great for making machines ... right?

As a solo game developer, I'll soon be sharing all kinds of development updates, including gameplay videos and screenshots, music, art, and more!

In the mean time, here's a picture of my cat, Nori. I hear you guys like those.
