So stoked to hear that! First time seeing our game?

Team Lazerbeam @teamlazerbeam.bsky.social · 10h

Best reaction! We're very much hoping this'll also appeal to folks who don't usually pick these kinda games up!

Team Lazerbeam @teamlazerbeam.bsky.social · 12h

Guess we should have spent a few more seconds showing off exploration gameplay. Oops!

Coming up on year of making my indie game and I’m feeling so anxious and proud at how far we’ve come and how much we still have to do 🥹 #indiedev #devlog #gamedev

Haha! Good question!

When you enter into a new tunnel, the door will slam behind you, meaning you can only backtrack within the tunnel you're currently in. 🚪

Incredibly rare that there'd be any gameplay reason you'd ever want to do this, but yes, you can walk backwards in our game.

Two very awesome games right there!

Team Lazerbeam @teamlazerbeam.bsky.social · 2d

Oh cool! Yeah, we really rushed to get the prototype in front of people as fast as we could in the early days, so there was minimal optomization. The demo is running sooooo much better now!

Team Lazerbeam @teamlazerbeam.bsky.social · 2d

Absolutely love to hear it! Loads more on the way!

Team Lazerbeam @teamlazerbeam.bsky.social · 2d

Haha, best description of a struggling lappy! Out of interest, how long ago were you playing the game? Recent updates have landed some pretty major performance wins!

Can't tell you how much we appreciate this kind of thing - thank you for following our quest to make this game!

Team Lazerbeam @teamlazerbeam.bsky.social · 3d

Haha! Living for these kind of reactions! Is it your first time seeing our game?

People have said we're crazy for making a game like this, but we love it.

Ever level of Shroom and Gloom is created with 1000s of layers of illustrations. Don't think folks understand how fun it is to building a world this way!

For what it's worth, we have already added some accessibility tools to help prevent motion sickness. You can dial down (or remove) screenshake and head bob when walking, or lock the camera during combat.

Thanks for sharing the game with your friends!

Thanks so much for the share!

Why do you say you can't do first person games? Motion sickness?
