A solo developer from Finland. I am currently making a modern arcade-style shooter called Marras. https://oksi.games
Demo Day 64 is here. I'm sharing an early development preview of MARRAS. The demo link is in the first reply to this post. It may have bugs and incomplete features and could change. I'd appreciate your feedback to help improve it. Please spread the word!

Implemented a simple shadow system for game entities. It scales better in this project than the approach with more realistic results. William Faulkner's wise words, “In writing, you must kill all your darlings“apply in game development too.

I've just launched my game development blog on oksi.games/blog. The first post sets the tone for what's to come. Next Post: I'm aiming to publish the second post about the MARRAS development status and next steps later this week.

Presenting one of the Marras's co-pilots. If you choose to pilot D-4 KAIHO, she will take the second seat and assist you in your mission. You might find her in this picture with an iconic pose. It could be a hint about her personality.

I cleaned up the enemy code and added more enemy types to the game. When I was editing this clip I noticed a visual bug in a player. Can you find the bug?

Since the last post, I have worked with enemy effects. I added features for muzzle flashes and advanced enemy damage feedback. Also, several explosion sprites were improved. Next, I will clean up enemy code and then I can add more enemies to the game.
