I don't typically put much thought into chain scoring or scoring in beat 'em ups at all, but this one got me hooked on trying to go higher! And it's a free browser game! From the creator of Fight'N Rage.
Really impressive PICO-8 graphics, too!

there's basically two ways to create shareholder value
1 - make good stuff people want
2 - fire everyone who knows what they're doing even if the doors fly off your airplanes and make up some wild shit about how autocorrect is going to make it all better eventually

I've been running an indie games studio for 15 years now, and it felt like a good time to boil down what I've learned into 4 pieces of advice:

Baby Steps starts as an elaborate shitpost before slowly revealing itself to be a sincere game about male insecurity. A deconstruction of the kind of idealized picture of manhood that video games helped create wrapped in a terrific slapstick comedy. My review. www.polygon.com/baby-steps-r...
