It appears that my game was removed from the competition.

I am extremely disappointed as both me and my brother worked pretty hard on it and i don' t feel like we did anything wrong.

But thanks to those who played it aniway.

#blood&flames is pretty light on environnemental hazards, but i try to give each level at least one.

The highland has powderpuffs that can fall from the trees and do frost damage.

wait for the end to see kookoos

Irredeamable is the story of Lady, once a living weapon of mass destruction, now released after hundreds of years of imprisonment and forgotten by all.

I don't consider myself a very witty person, so my games tend to be light on jokes, but i do really enjoy this one conversation where Lady tries to get along with the game's main antagonist.

Might be a bit of a hot take on deltarune, but my favorite chapter is 3, because its got a great main story, as well as the best secret boss route and the best egg secret.

chapter 4 is great when it comes to the main story, probably the best even, but it sacrifice a lot of secret stuff for it.

I' ve been receiving some criticism on #thelegallydistinct where the rope jump was said to be pretty unintuitive to use.

It' s a bit tricky to fix as you are meant to be able to jump and drop easily but i' ve been changing it so that jumping uses a double press instead of the up key.

terrible idea, instead of electrum being worth 5 silver, they are a constantly fluctuating currency that almost nobody use but a few weird people are constantly trying to convince you that they will be worth a fortune one day and that you should buy into them.

AKA, Electrum are crypto.

Here is my current progress on the ashen highland and some new ennemies.

As you can see, my workflow tend to consist in starting with a pre-existing mob and slowly edit them into the new one.

since ive been reworking the prologue, ive also made some tweaks to its boss fight, the Chieftain.

Its a fairly complex fight for the early game but Jupe is quite overpowered in the prologue

I worked with my brother on this gamejam game some time ago, where you gotta defend your home from the governement using mutant plants. Its pretty simple and short so you should give it a shot.

Just uploaded a new demo for #thelegallydistinct, featuring a new stage, new bosses, and a bunch of small improvements to the experience.

Almost done with Mumfair fight, only got the ending to do.

His second phase trigger at 40% health rather than 60 like other bosses since he becomes so much harder to hit with the clones.

Okay, currently working on the second secret boss for the knight campaign.

hes the father of Dunmo Dufric, the campaign main antagonist and is locked up in the basement of the mansion.

I' m done with stage 5 on #thelegallydistinct so now im seeing what i can do to improve the credit museum.

I wanted something a bit more dynamic than just a scroll at the end of the game, but this still need a lot of work.

Couldn't help but think about this one gag from Ribbit during the whole stream

Almost done with sweet cream. Just got some balancing left.

Mouse issues didnt get fixed with another mouse, so it might be a game maker issue. Not sure what to do from here

It can be hard to talk to other gamedevs, so to get to know each other, let's talk about our monsters, races, and other blorbos.

and if you don't know what to say, just post a gouda
