Hello! I'm DarkFluo, and I make games, but also whatever else I feel like creating!
I'm currently working on old projects!
I'm back on the saddle and will post about them here, so you can follow me if you're interested!

I finally took the time to get my VR headset working, so I might randomly livestream in the following couple of days or weeks, finally playing #POOLS in VR
I tested it shortly yesterday, and I really think it's gonna be something. The vibe is calm but tense, so it'll feel like more than just walking

#KirbyAirRiders
I made V1 from #ULTRAKILL and Jimbo from #Balatro as custom machines, the editor is really powerful, and while the 20 decals limit it quite small, it makes for some great puzzle solving to optimize it all! I feel like I'm playing a Zachtronics game when making these

I played a lot of it over the weekend, and I just CANNOT wait for the full release!
The game is amazing and it's just the demo!
I had some much fun on both online City Trial and offline races, this is going to be amazing!

Our game was released on this day 5 years ago- Wild to think so much time has already passed, but I'm very proud of what I've managed to accomplish with Zid and Zniw! Thanks for being a part of this Adventure too! ^_^

Marballin's soon entering its beta phase of development since I started work on it 3 years ago (to be fair, the game has honestly been in beta-like state since I started getting people to play test it on twitch)

The "Balatro-like" genre of Roguelikes is definitely where the best indie games are at atm
Balatro, Cloverpit and now this banger
I'm really hyped for the release of Dice a Million and can't wait for what devs will think of next

What I like a lot about #DiceAMillion is that it's pretty easy to build a run focused on any mechanic you want, like extra values, zones, having a lot of die...
It's a gripe I have with other roguelikes regarding how I like to play them, and this game nails it for me

Really good stuff, I'd recommend checking it out !
I manage to get quite a powerful run and had a lot of fun with it ! It looks like it could get quite crazy, there's a lot of dices with insane effects !
The visuals are great and the music is one of these tunes I could listen to on loop

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...
