George can now throw his bombs beyond ledges he could previously jump from!

I've seen multiple people trying to do this before, so I felt like I had to implement this feature. Makes this enemy way easier to take down as well!

#1Gamein3Months - Day 7, ep.10

One week already since I started this project! Really happy with how everything is going so far.

Lots of brainstorming today. Spent most of my time writing down new ideas, improving game feels, and adding new animations.

The blue cricket shown in earlier clips will accompany May for a while! If you look closely at the start, you can see him perched on May's head. ^^

He is TIIIIINY. May can send him into cricket-sized tunnel mazes to help unlock new areas.

Now this one made me laugh: this is Sky Rail's hard mission, my first time playing it and doing exploratory trials (hence the slow time and the 1 ring), I restarted at the last checkpoint with 0 point and somehow got it. Despite finding the 1st mission of Sky Rail quite hard to A-rank!

170/180.

12 to 15 hours in, I just managed to win my first run! This game got me hooked, really as fantastic as the first one for me. Can't wait to put on some difficulty modifiers and try to win a second run!

Remember your favorite creator possibly might be struggling with imposter syndrome and doubt and this timeline sucks.. so if you find yourself thinking “wow I really relate to this persons work” or that persons work gives you joy, you should probably tell them. It’s a hard time to be a creative.

i take frenzy damage every time i see someone go "well i just use it for the boring stuff". what are you TALKING about? if it's boring or unimportant, why are you putting it in? NPC dialogue is fertile ground for worldbuilding, creating verisimilitude, conveying important information, and hijinks!!
Buy a solo indie dev's game because I want to support them.

Find out it uses OpenAI to write "non-important NPC dialogue".

We got a Steam review today that reads "there's no French localization. Unbelievable in this day and age when AI can do that in seconds."

1. We will never use AI.

2. Leaving a bad review because the game isn't available in your language is incredibly lame. 😔
