For whatever reason this sale didn't let people claim the games. I extended it a few hours and that seems to have fixed it, I guess the servers got possessed for Halloween.

Screw my dignity.

"Captain Poweryarn: The Juegazo" is now released on Itch, and 100% for the #halloween sale.

apehardware.itch.io/flesh-shark-...

A messy Unreal game that takes mascot horror and turns it into a surreal, unrecognizable thing.

#october #spooktober #gamesale #indiedev #horrorgame

Yeah, it's finished.

I've been unsure of what to do with it. I'm personally not the biggest fan of it, but compared to the usual mascot horror it's an OK game.

I'm considering making it available on Itch for 1$ and discounting it 100% for the Itch Halloween Sale, just to see how it goes.

After all the issues I had with Odiumfloreo post-release, I've been thinking all of the constant gameplay switch-ups I put on my larger games aren't worth the effort.
So I made this small point-and-click thing to test out a simpler approach:
apehardware.itch.io/the-noisiest...
#spooktober #horror

I was working with one translator for this, but it has been stuck for a few months due to life screwing shit up for the translator.

"Odiumfloreo": a physics-based sit-n-survive.
It began with the incredibly dumb idea of mixing FNaF with Enviro-bear 2000, and spiraled into a abstract body horror nightmare that takes physics-based mechanics and does all sort of weird shit with them.

Releasing NOW.

Great chance to give it a chance.

"Solve riddles, puzzles and platforming challenges as you descend the cryptic pathways of a distorted microcosm reality fueled by a symbolic landscape of faith and erotic nightmares."

Fun fact: Odiumfloreo originally was a scrapped concept for a fangame that mixed FNaF and Enviro-bear 2000 of all things.

Here's a post explaining everything I could recall about it: gamejolt.com/p/the-never-...

#indiegame #gamedev #horrorgame #godot #solodev

Forgot to post it here, but Odiumfloreo got a few upgrades before release in the form of minigames. 3 of them, 5 levels each, all centered around physics-based nonsense.

Releasing soon.

A friend is making this little game, a silly co-op golf 2D platformer. I tested it out in its early stages and it was quite funny. #Indiegame

The final decision has been made: screw Next Fest, release it earlier because it's done (Except testing. Testing is never truly done).
store.steampowered.com/news/app/395...

#steam #steamgame #indiegame #indedev #indiehorror #horrorgame #godot

There's a good chance it's going to release earlier than October 31, but I'm undecided if I should wait until Next Fest 2025 is over or don't hold the game and release it on early October.

Aiming for a Halloween release. The new version will have brand new mechanics and a new "point-and-click" section to expand the jam version's almost non-existent plot.

Sayonara Sigil Sentry might get some company in the "jam game updated and posted to Steam" in the near future...

Took part on the #GMTK game jam.

The theme was "loop" so I made "IMMORTAL JELLYFISH WITH GUNS", a bullet hell shooter in which the character loops through different forms with an unique attack each.

An engine made by a million-dolar company and it decides to not fucking load menu buttons on the exported build.

I needed a break so I reworked an old game I was disappointed with, Terminal Veil. New mechanics, new plot, new levels.

And I'm finally happy with it.

Forget cutscenes, we have doodles.

(It's obvious Unreal really tires me, isn't it?)

(2/2)

I'm reaching the end of this project and I need some feedback.

I'm thinking of telling the instructions and plot using diagrams, sorta like SCP-2521. ¿What game mechanics do you think these pictures are trying to explain?

The Apehardware activist arc is real.
Behold, the "fuck algorithmic social media" jam game:
apehardware.itch.io/literal-doom...

It's basically playable doomscrolling, plus eldritch horror.

Trying to get back at doing pre-rendered visuals so I don't have to rely on stock images for everything.

This was done entirely with Blender (and some GIMP filters), no photo textures. Haven't touched this kind of style since my FNaF fangame era (...vietnam flashbacks...).

Courage the Cowardly Dog and TMNT 2012 did things to my neurons.
Also I want to make horror games that actually do something interesting with the gameplay instead of being "Slender clone nº 194459".

Lately I've been moving my stuff (email, file hosting...) to EU/Open source providers to avoid US Big Tech (Steam and Itch are fine, they stay).

Today I've something few dare to.

I have deleted my Google account.

My game trailers are now on Peertube: videos.abnormalbeings.space/c/apehardwar...

To be more specific, the game is about the Altri pulp's company to build a *massive* pulp factory in Galicia (northwest Spain, the bit above Portugal) despite massive negative impacts for both the environment and the nearby rural areas.

There's even a protest movement currently accepting donations:
