Unexpected outdoor time 😆

I welcome the short break and chance for a bit of sunlight, maybe we should do this every year 😜

Unfortunately one of these changes makes the first secret pickup inaccessible... but there are still four more throughout the demo, only one of which has so far been found 😄

Memory's Reach @100stones.bsky.social · 2d

Made some subtle (and not so subtle) changes to the PAX demo this morning to improve the flow of the first few rooms. Should make getting through the tutorial section much quicker and easier, leaving more time for the more difficult puzzles in the second half.

It has been a long time since I felt compelled to make changes to my demo mid-show but here I am at 7am doing just that.

New demo is going great! If you like puzzle games come find me in the Indie Showcase section to give it a go 😄

Smashing together several trailers and a bunch of new demo footage to create a looping sizzle reel for PAX. Hoping there is enough variety in the 7-minute loop that it doesn't drive me insane by the end of the show 😅

Memory's Reach will be back at PAX Aus this year. Find us in the Indie Showcase section and give the new demo a try! This one has some rather more challenging puzzles than previous demos, I'm eager to see how many people can solve them 😜

Recently added these carriable dodecahedron shaped objects to the game. They can roll like a ball or sit steady like a cube, cast interesting shadows, and interact with different player powers. Lots of fun things you can do with them!

No one found any of the secrets though... I think I hid them too well 😆

Took the new upcoming PAX demo along to the monthly game dev meetup last night for a public playtest. It went really well... but I also came back with two pages of notes of bugs, issues, and other improvements 😄 But hey, that's what I took it along for! I'm feeling really good about PAX this year 🎉

Interesting, I can totally see where you're coming from! Though TBH the main influence was probably the 300-odd hours I put into Cyberpunk 😄

Memory's Reach is a first-person puzzled focused metroidvania. Someone in the stream comments called it a "Prime-like" - which as a huge Metroid fan, I'll take that 😀
