Sektori is a neon-drenched, fast-paced twin-stick shooter where techno beats and clever upgrades create a brilliantly addictive arcade rush. @gimblll.com

Trying to cope with all the love for Sektori. Sorry for the repost spam. Next week it's time to get started on the first patch. It'll take weeks rather than days, as I have to learn the console patch processes. I have a list of things to do, but if you have anything small you want, let me know. 🙂

On this Thanksgiving eve, while t’others slept, I conquered the Experience campaign in Sektori. Look upon your golden god, for I am untouchable this day.

Also, play Sektori. All of the other cool games people talking about it are (also) right.

Shapes is the only Unity asset store plugin I use. Usually they're garbage, but @freya.bsky.social has created an invaluable asset. I can't recommend it enough. ❤️
@freya.bsky.social Spotted you in my indie GOTY, Sektori!

Word on the street is that @gimblll.com has made a banger. Let it be known I’ve been a fan since Trigonarium.

Okay, it's been a week since release. Reception has been AWESOME, much much more than I expected for such a niche thing! Thank you! ❤️ A few thoughts (thread).
This is Sektori! A twin-stick shooter I've been making (and documenting the journey) since April 2021. And it finally launched TODAY on Steam, PS5 and Xbox! Here's a fresh launch trailer, all shares highly appreciated. More game info in replies.

Last night I played Civ 6 until 3am, and I didn't want to repeat that mistake, so I decided to play a game with shorter sessions.

I then played Sektori until 3.05am

Yes, I was the nerd who brought the Second Reality soundtrack to my seventh-grade music class for ‘bring your favorite song’ day.
You see this guy and you're about to see some real shit.

One of my earliest notes on Sektori was something like "get going right from the start, no filler, punch them in the face". But it seems I'm punching a lot of people in the face now. I'm not really a violent man! Sorry!

Sektori is amazing.
If you want more Geometry Wars, play this.
It feels very familiar but also fresh.
