Mindbreak's Coming Soon-page went live on Steam yesterday. Check it out after you've watched the announcement trailer. It's been a lot of work, so I really hope you enjoy it! 😅

True. However I'm making a puzzle game, so playtesting myself is not really an option. Luckily I've got some good people, willing to play and give feedback 😍

Working really hard at the moment. Play tests on the alpha build every other day this week. I’ve also thrown myself rather recklessly into the creation of an intro cutscene video - a multiweek project of a kind I have little experience in. I really hope it all pans out 😬 #gamedev #indiegame

More play test done today. Got some great feedback and a few bugs that I'm gonna make fixes for immediately. Two more play test sessions coming up this week. Wish me luck! #indiegame #gamedev

404 Streak not found. I guess that’s why I still can’t really speak French 🤷‍♂️

Putting music aside for now, I'm starting to work on the first frames for the cutscene. I'm picturing a still frame kind of video, with some slight movement to give perspective. And lots of moving effects like rain and lights. Never done something like this before, so we'll see #gamedev #indiegame

Just gonna write a nice simple piece of music. Add some strings here. Some horns there. Nice. Uhh, and maybe a clarinet here. No tuba? Yes, of course! BRING IN THE TRUMPETS! What was supposed to be a quick and sad intro cutscene might now become the most epic moment in the game 🙃 #indiegame #gamedev

Dusted off my small composing setup this morning, to write and record some music. Working on the game’s intro cutscene, which might double as a cinematic trailer. The last few months have been nothing but coding, so it feels great to get my fingers on the midi controllers again #gamedev #indiegame

I did icons for the upgrades that will be available in the demo yesterday. So for #ScreenshotSaturday I can finally give you a glimpse of the new upgrade system.

Working on some upgrade icons this morning. They will be shown in the shop(s), in the upgrade equip panel and occasionally on an upgrade unlock screen. 3 down, 13 to go 😵 #indiegame #gamedev

I’ve found that having a board such as this is incredibly helpful. It helps me clear my mind by not having to remember stuff, and it gives me something concrete to do whenever I have time to get some work done. Even if it’s just refining a task. #gamedev #indiegame #indiedev

Rasmus Indie | Wishlist Mindbreak 🤯 @rasmusindie.bsky.social · 19d

Going into a new sprint I've re-stocked the board with new tasks. I'm left with a lot of sound effects, visual effects and qol features while waiting for the next wave of feedback. Thank God it's #motivationmonday today! #indiegame #gamedev

At the exact time the video freezes momentarily to replay on Bluesky, the background produces two hands, both flipping me the bird. 10/10 background tbh.

Update: I did indeed catch a random spark of motivation 🤩 All the proposed fixes from the first play test feedback was implemented over the last few nights. Next up is more play test and more feedback. But first: Friday! Have a great one, folks! #indiegame #gamedev

You’re right, ofc. It’s just that it’s been my routine the past month or so to use almost all of my free time gamedeving. I feel lazy not working now 😬

Feeling a bit burned out after a hard sprint to get the demo ready for play testing. I definitely need more feedback than what I got, but I’m concerned that any new play tests on the current build, will just produce duplicate feedback. Hoping that unexpected motivation hits me #indiegame #gamedev

Playtest went really well. Learned a lot. The tweaks from the latest feedback were really good. Still a few things to improve. But overall the testers had fun. Got both some laughs and some cool Aha-moments which is really all you want. Now, back to work! #gamedev #indiegame

Here's another one (and how recording helps my figuring out what is actually going on). This one was solved with a simple guard statement:

if (currentState != SwitchingState.SelectCharacter) return;

Play test coming up tomorrow and I am currently trying to break the game in every way I possibly can. Most of it is just smashing random buttons quickly in different situations. And behold... a bug! Already found a few of these. #gamedev #indiegame #indiegamedev

I did it. I made the elevator work 🎉 This involved some of the most complex coding I've ever done. Full rewrites of the level manager and saveload manager, but now elevators can correctly load levels and level data. I've been pushing this for months but it's finally done. #indiegame #gamedev
