Love seeing all the posts for the "Just make it exist first" trend because it really highlights the timescale of game dev!

From older character designs, static cameras and unrefined game design to our current demo, we've come so far since our first in-engine version in January!

We're still deep in development so a lot of this stuff is very rough or still in planning, but if you'd like to follow our progress more closely, we recently created a discord server where we'll start posting soon!

Phasmopass is a Turn-Based Roguelite set in a supernatural Reality Show, where teams compete in Volleyball matches to be the last ones standing!

Itโ€™s definitely an inspiration for one of our upcoming UI reworks but otherwise the visuals are 100% the vision of our lovely artist @dirn.bsky.social !

Gameplay wise the game is one part Beastieball, one part Darkest Dungeon and one part Paper Mario :)

Phasmopass will feature deep Character customization with strange items and ghosts to bond with, as well as a unique Reality-Show-inspired roguelite structure!

However, we're still working on perfecting our core loop beforehand, so we're looking forward to playtesting our combat a lot soon!

A concept for the player controller. A Blue Snowball Microphone is taped to the end of a long cardboard tube into which a nintendo switch joycon is inserted, which helps the player move with the joystick.

The final version of the input device. A Blue Snowball Microphone is taped to the end of a long cardboard tube, now wrapped in gold tape. At the bottom into, a nintendo switch joycon is inserted, which helps the player move with the joystick.

The second twist?

Reefsong was developed as university project where we had to make a unique input device!

We built the a staff to resemble the mermaids weapon out of a cardboard tube, a Blue Snowball and a Joycon for movement (we tried motion controls first but they were too buggy๐Ÿฅฒ)

The core loop is very simple;

1) Find polluting ships dropped by the mothership!
2) Capsize them with powerful waves!
3) Purify them into a reef that local wildlife can use as a habitat!

The twist?

You have to SING to do so. High notes purify your surroundings and low notes create waves!

It's really welcoming :D

Speaking as a programmer who worked in Unity for four years, I had a small adjustment period of two weeks and then I was vastly preferring the experience. It just feels a lot more approachable to look at

We were super honored to be allowed to exhibit Bug Off! at last year's @godotcon.bsky.social Berlin 2024!

It was a super memorable experience, and we met so many new #godot developers there.

Really happy to be working in this engine and excited for all the new updates coming out for it!

You can dance with 5 different partners and grow closer to them over the course of three difficulty levels, and maybe even go out on a date...? ๐Ÿ˜ณ๐Ÿ‘‰๐Ÿ‘ˆ

Hi Bluesky!

We are a small Indie Dev Studio based in Hamburg.

We're excited to connect with other developers on this platform, so we'll be sharing a little bit about us and our previous games in the coming days!
