Introducing: MATH CLIMBER ! ! ! !

Precision platforming mixed with MATH.

I dug up this old VHS tape that explains the game, but I think it might be a little broken and glitchy...

Coming 2025, wishlist on Steam nowwwww

I love how everyone just agrees that menus are the most painful and tedious process lmao

gamedev be like:
simple task to improve pause menu styling that spirals into 2 week long optimizing and re-writing half the systems in your game

My favorite thing in the world. My FAVORITE THING in the world is seeing a streamer end their 1st Cardaire video with no Card Shards, and right at the start of video 2 they have an unexplained stack of Card Shards.

I see you streamer. I know you were fishing it up off stream.

Making games is brutally slow process, and every bit of progress is hard-won. But sometimes all those tiny pieces finally click, and you see it all working together in beautiful harmony.

Today was one of those days and it feels so good. Man, I freaking love making video games.

The WORST thing about getting published by Devolver is that we had to get rid of this

Hi! Hello! How are you? I've been enjoying a little break from social media since Math Climber’s launch, but I’ve been toiling away on my next project nonstop. Really really excited to show it off more. Hoping for a full reveal in late November, but here’s a tiny first teaser :)

Now that the launch week Math Climber bugs have been squashed, this weekend I get to dive into dev for my next project.

Very excited to get working now that I know a little Godot. Got something really sweet I wanna build. :)

Climbing a mountain is hard. Solving math problems while climbing a mountain is even harder.

Tiny update notes:

Cardaire - v2.1.02 - Steam News

- Decreased the requirement for the "Fin-tastic!" achievement from 75lb to 30lb (If your highscore was 30lb or higher, you can unlock the achievement by examining the highscore board on Thym...

In retrospect using a rng distribution algorithm because I "found it hilarious" might have been the wrong choice for tournament fishing in Cardaire. I've decreased the required score from 75 to 30 for the achievement.

The alg:
Math.round(95 / (Math.random() * 95 + 1)) + 5
