My next game is a Tetris style word game called Writer's Block
Spell words one block at a time and set up combos by sandwiching words between each other
Aiming to release early 2026!

Now for the bittersweet part of any launch day as a freelance worker, with the game out, I'm out looking for work again. So, need a UI/gameplay programmer, a top-notch senior/lead QA Analyst, a technical or educational game designer?

I'm open to freelance and full-time positions, hit me up! Please!

Flail Slime
#pixelart #ドット絵

Four different pixel art sprites of a slime monster with a spike ball inside of it, one has the spike completely inside, one has it floating on top like a wave, one is reaching, and the last one is about to swing the spike ball like a flail.

if anyone has any concerns about the gore in disc room I want you to know it has one of the funniest and best accessibility features: a toggle where, instead of shattering into bloody giblets if you die, you just collapse with a gentle explosion of confetti. I wish every violent game had this

The game in which the premise is "the odds are real but gamers struggle to conceptualize or even believe them" has negative reviews from gamers who don't believe the odds are real (game: Unfair Flips)

A 'Not Recommended' Steam review with 4 hours played

Review text reads: It's a decent idea for a game where you flip a coin and depending on your percentage chances you get heads or tails. However the odds are a lie. You will flip tails 100 percent more than you will heads no matter what your percentage is. Even when you get it up to 60% you will still flip tails way more often then you will heads.

The Dev can try to defend it, but when I flip the coin 2500 times and only hit heads a third of the time even when at 60% then the odds are broken or a lie. I've also watched gameplay and seen fellow players have the same flips so I know it isn't just me having bad luck.

Still not bad for $2, but I'm saying no because the game is coded against you instead of it being fully on chance and luck.
