Eye of Entropy

If you're on Windows, I recommend the programs 'OBS Studio' for screen recording and 'Shotcut' for basic video editing. Both are free and open source. The model looks great btw!

I just played it just this month and had a great time 😀

Babel of Ystilia on Steam Turn-based roguelike with minimalistic, fast-paced combat that focuses on learning enemy patterns and making powerful synergies with your items.

Steam store page: store.steampowered.com/app/2056180/...

Another one finished! It's a brand new turn-based roguelike called 'Babel of Ystilia'. Extremely similar gameplay to 'Crypt of the Necrodancer', but it brought its own ideas to the table and kept me hooked the whole time. Highly recommended.
This makes 160 total perfect games on Steam now :)

Excited to try out the new mode! I think I probably lost most of my muscle memory for the base game by now, but going down will be easier than going up 😅

Got a new personal best (and WR?) yesterday in 'Smack Monkey'! Almost certainly my final #speedrun unless I manage to stumble across any more skips.
More people need to try this game!

got the clear on 12-x 1.2x speed today! #adofai #pngtuber

glad to get it out of the way a little early this time

Been grinding out faster runs of 'Smack Monkey' this weekend. I presumably have the world record at the moment, at least until an accomplished speedrunner discovers it 😅

I tried to use a little chip tune I made some years back for a custom level in 'A Dance of Fire and Ice'. It was pretty satisfying to learn how to use the level editor even though there's not much incentive to map the 2nd half of the song ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

thanks for sharing, I'm crying with laughter

A Dance of Fire and Ice on Steam A Dance of Fire and Ice is a strict rhythm game. Keep your focus as you guide two orbiting planets along a winding path without breaking their perfect equilibrium.

I started playing the 2019 rhythm game 'A Dance of Fire and Ice' yesterday. It's a lot of fun so far but the levels are really escalating in difficulty. 🫠

Slimper on Steam Help Watermelon to climb up to the cable car! Slimper is a hand-drawn precision platform adventure, where your precision and patience will be measured, as one mistake can be a big fall.

Been a while since my last post, but this is what I've been up to:
- Finished 'Cook, Serve, Delicious!' (2013) as my 145th perfect game on #Steam.
- Got a new PB #speedrun time of 7:19 in Smack Monkey.
- Examined the project files of the #GodotEngine game 'Slimper' to help the dev fix a few bugs.

I'm not affiliated with the project by the way, just a fan of the game.

Just finished a #speedrun of the new #indiegame precision platformer by @drdrub.bsky.social. It's called 'Smack Monkey', and was made using #GodotEngine!
Of course I suggest not watching a speedrun video if you want to discover the game for yourself. 😅
Get it on #Steam while the sales are still on!

It will likely be a long while before I focus on the art direction and visuals, but that's a great suggestion for the final product 😀

#EntropyDev log 7
I initially programmed the character movement with only flat walls in mind, but recently wondered how it would handle rounded corners as-is. As shown, it functions better than expected, but it's clear the animation state code needs further refinement.
#GodotEngine #gamedev #solodev

Just updated Godot to version 4.4 without issue. 😀
Lots of little tweaks on the to-do list this weekend for my game dev project.

Haven't done much with my game dev project since the last log. Was busy playing a game instead (A Fugu's Dive).
Got back into the mindset today though by learning the basics of how Git works; definitely want to have a backup of my project since I've heard some scary anecdotes of file corruption

Gonna bother you one more time with my latest record 😁
I thought I would be content after the 25m run, but it still had too many mistakes for my satisfaction. Now, I'm finally done playing for real unless more content comes out, but I hope more people play AFD because it's been a great experience!

I see, sorry to hear that. 😓 Housing costs are absurd enough these days, but it should be outright illegal to hire someone full time without providing benefits. I hope you're eventually able to find some remote work or move to a better area someday

You're a mail carrier, right? Are the pay & benefits really good enough to be worth staying in that role over finding something that requires less hours?
Granted, the job searching process can be its own nightmare.

I'm glad to have stumbled upon the game here on bluesky. Even with the achievements done, it has been addicting to keep doing runs to see how much I can improve; I ended up with this after a couple days, but I'm not sure I have any willpower left to practice more since the last jump is so tricky 😅

It's so it can scrape all the bacteria off on the way down

Another game completed 😎
This one is a recently released #solodev "Foddian" climbing platformer by @kimisproject.bsky.social

This technically makes #157 perfect games on #Steam, but like a lot of smaller #indiegames, it doesn't count toward the official profile tracker until it gets more reviews 😔

There's still time left in the week, I hope it turns around for you 😌

Wow, usually rage game devs tend to be masters of their own games 😄
I actually did my 3rd run today too, and made it up to the diving zone in only 33 minutes!
...but then I got stuck on those last few jumps for an embarrassingly long time 😓
Must have gotten lucky on the prior runs then lol

another one 😎
