Key Gunner is an arcade action typing game where you defend yourself from hordes of enemies by typing the letters above their heads. It features three difficulties, and you can customize how often the enemies have real words vs random letters. Check out it! zad-man.itch.io/key-gunner

I think of this line so often. No other pun has quite lived up to it.

Struck gold at the thrift store today! Did not expect to see Myst of all things!

Anyone looking to adopt a dog, or know someone who is? My mother-in-law has two adorable dogs who need good homes!

A list of enemies, like with Dragon Warrior II. Though honestly I don't know how frequently a list was used. Final Fantasy 1 did use an arrow over the enemies, for example.

I have performed a Cardinal Internet Sin and insufficiently shared pictures of my cat, so here's some recent ones to start the repentance process!

Here's a video of me playing Hard Mode in Key Gunner! Think you can beat my score?

This one was rather big!

Oh heck yeah, I'd love to be part of it if you're still adding! Meet Tabby! (My most recent picture of him :D)

Well heck, I didn't know that gifs won't play on Bluesky yet. I'll have to put together a new video, but here's a video I posted a while back in the meantime!

Hello followers, new and old! My name is Zach Durtschi, and I'm a solo indie dev currently working on Key Gunner, a game where you fight off hordes of enemies by typing their associated letters. The game is 95% complete as originally planned, but I'm now seeking funding to try to expand it more!

Bonus #ScreenshotSaturday clip! Here is a longer play session than I've posted before, on Hard difficulty. Included are the other two enemy types, with one and two letters. (Also, there's a graphical bug that I've now fixed, so ignore that if you spot it! ;) )

Key Gunner is at last ready for publication! The last work I had was fleshing out the menu into a properly functional menu, which you can see in this clip:

Also have an options menu now, though I haven't actually hooked it up yet

Finally took the time to make a clip of Key Gunner's finalized Game Over screen!

I haven't had as much time to work on Key Gunner recently, but I spent some time learning how to save/load data, so I now have high scores! The actual display is very much still a Work In Progress, but here's a little #ScreenshotSaturday image!

Bluesky now has over 10 million users, and I was #1,137,725!

Here's some gameplay! Only two enemies show up in the clip, but there are four of them total. The other two have fewer letters and move more quickly!

I'm currently working on Key Gunner, a game about shooting enemies by typing! I just finished the v1 of the main menu (layout will change once I add options, high scores, achievements, etc.).

Gameplay in the replies!
