#indiedev #gamedesign

Opinions wanted:
My game #accelescape is a 2D platformer with a speed running, momentum building hook.
I have a chase wall collapsing the level. But once ahead enough it is no longer a present threat.
I have other risk/reward threats ahead, but is this a problem?
Suggestions?

Think I'll do my #accelescape Dev diaries monthly for now as progress is slow, being a hobbyist.
But here is a snippet of the title screen plan, and new locomotion and level art.

I just launched 1D Pacman—give it a try in your spare moments. It’s a minimal take on the classic with precise timing.

Hit level 50? Post your snapshot and I promise to follow!

I’m working on one of those aseprite files that is like “December 2023 CURRENT FINAL VERSION” and of course there’s like six more recent versions and one of the layers is called “weapone” and Christ am I just always going through it or what the fuck is going on here #indiedev #gamedev

I'm realizing something as I build up this #indiedev skill set.

Many solo devs are often programmers, artists, animators, etc. So their games tend to that skill.

I am a current QA, with an Ergonomics background. So I am very bug squashing and UX focussed at every step.

Last month I had a demo launch/4-week ad blitz and I averaged 400+ wishlists/week, which was great.

Since the ad spend ended, it's like it never happened. I have been averaging 22 wishlists/week. Some days have even been in the negative. #gamedev

Due to the night attack of evil, we have no electricity all day. Therefore, Unreal Engine is postponed, I'm writing texts for the game. I had an idea that - I won't say, but it's a combination of this and ⤵️

Making progress on a #Accelescape test level.
Running slower and jump lower.
Plus first attempt at a parallax background setup (with some help from an asset from @craftpix.bsky.social ❤️).

One-key flier. Tap to rise, let go to fall. It’s simple and way too sticky.

Get past 200 points? Show me your score and I’ll follow you!

Not much of an artist so trialing some assets from @craftpix.bsky.social for my game #Accelescape!
Thanks guys, was great to find something close to what I envisioned, then editing to my colour pallette and style 🙏

Sharing my first Dev Diary post here.
Incredibly early prototype stuff, and sharing for my own record mostly.
But let me know any thoughts or feedback already 🙏
