In honor of a year and a half working on Flightless Fighters, I've compiled a few of my favorite version control comments.
I'd love to see the comments fellow indie devs have left on their own work... 👀

#indiedev #gamedev #indiegames
Text in a version control program reading: "1/13/2025: Idle state bug is fixed. I am both relieved and angry, but not surprised. Text in a version control program reading: "2/8/2025: Disrespectful peck should be fixed, BUT ALAS, we programmers and playtesters hath been ambushed! By a new and dangerous enemy... his name be... THE SHADOW ATTACK!!! He be the most fearsome bug in all the land! We may never hope to defeat such a foe..." Text in a version control program reading: "4/14/2025: Fixed animation cancelling (yay!) fixed the disrespectful peck (yippee!) the shadow attack has returned (dear god)" Text in a version control program reading: "6/10/2025: I think I have solved the issue with Disrespectful Peck/ Shadow Attack, animation cancelling still exists, but it does not allow for steamrolling without attacking, fingers are crossed, I am burning incense and nailing horseshoes to my computer"

Finished up the ranged attacks in Flightless Fighters! I'm really happy with the animations, and programming went surprisingly smoothly! Blocking is the next mechanic on the list, and I'll probably start working on it today.

I fixed up a few small things in Flightless Fighters!
I added a stage selector along with 2 new stages, I made a simple health bar, and I (hopefully) fixed a huge attack bug I've been struggling with. My itch page should be updated with the new build tonight!

A file in a pixel art program displaying a few squiggles. The lines are in the vague shape of 2 stick figures attacking one another. A file in a pixel art program displaying a finished drawing. It is of 2 penguins battling one another, surrounded by fog.

Took a bit of a break over the holidays to spend time with loved ones and recover from a busy semester, but now I'm ready to get back into the development of my game. Here's some concept art for 2 characters in Flightless Fighters (Little and Emperor) to start off the new year!

This is the initial concept art for Gentoo and Macaroni, two of the fighters in the game I'm developing. These were also the characters that appeared on the thumbnail of my first Flightless Fighters devlog.
