The audience for VR games is still pretty small and it's had a reputation as an expensive hobby, so I see the economics of it - since the audience is small, you have to charge more and/or spend less on development to break even. Game dev is financially touch-and-go at the best of times.

It works best if you can sustain it while steadily rising in pitch the whole time

Every VR set has a microphone. You could make it so that you power up more if you go like "HUUAAAAAAAAAAAAHHH!!!"

A VR game or Dragonball Z feels like a no-brainer... I would love to zip around in the sky and do elaborate hand motions to fire a beam

Wahaha I'm so glad you like it! Petal 1 feels like a dinosaur to me now. I'm really glad for the opportunity to refine it.

The vs. CPU is still in an early state in this demo - rest assured it will be fully capable of killing any living thing by the time we get to Early Access!

In Construct you've got Layouts, which are your screens and levels, and then you've got Objects, the stuff that goes in those levels. Why on earth are they the same thing in Godot

I need to actually learn Godot but it's so hard for me to wrap my head around. Why is every object a Scene. Where even do the scripts go. How do you make a scene that's a distinct screen and go from one to another. Someone make a Godot frontend that makes it work like Fusion or Construct please

Any times that we are topical are pure circumstance.

Anyway, it’s Petal Crash’s 5th anniversary and we’re running Trash Attack, a more volatile mode where garbage is instantaneous. Petal Crash Online is free, so we hope you’ll join us this week
