In case you missed it, I made a lil game in a month! It's super cute, and FREE, so give it a try if you want! :3

Boogs 'N Beans is now available! It was created for the 2025 PixelCRAM game jam, hosted by Clickteam!

It's an arcade-inspired maze-action game where you try to fill the board with sprouts before the boogs eat them all. I hope you'll give it a try! #MadeWithFusion

Hey @polykillpodcast.bsky.social I #justbeatit Ratshaker. I don't know what the f*ck just happened. I feel like I need a hot shower. I'll just lay on the floor in the fetal position and let the water cleanse me while I have a good cry. I'm afraid to close my eyes lest I see that damn rat again.

Hey @polykillpodcast.bsky.social I #justbeatit Hollow Knight: Silksong! What can I say about this game that hasn't already been said? It is an absolute masterpiece that follows up on its predecessor admirably. Gorgeous art style. Beautiful soundtrack. Tough as nails gameplay. It is nearly perfect!

Hey @polykillpodcast.bsky.social I #justbeatit Garfield Kart: Furious Racing! I've been hearing so much about this new kart racer that came out so I had to give it a try. I don't understand all the hubbub but it's alright I guess. No real beat criteria so I cleared all 150cc Grand Prix's. Lasagna.

Hey @polykillpodcast.bsky.social I #justbeatit Sayonara Wild Hearts! This is a fun mix of auto runner and rhythm gameplay with an intense neon aesthetic. It was a pretty fun ride from start to finish and I'll be doing some score chasing for quite some time. It's only an hour long so play it!
