Still working on Cosmic Jam. Can't really effectively show off the stuff I've actually been working on, so here's some footage of debris and bailing for fun.

A solid list of films full of people who have lost their minds

An unintentionally funny fact about Johnnie To's "Election" movies is that they all center around the Hung Society and their Hung Brethren

Testing out a feature for things "on screen" to react to things the player does. Got these little grey boxes which briefly change to an expression of worry upon bailing. Follow me to see more shit I implement to avoid making a video game, thanks.

Working on checkpoints in Cosmic Jam. Right now, my plan is for them to be these mausoleums that open portals when activated. Might add some more bells and whistles as I go, but they seem to be working! #ScreenshotSaturday #GameDev #MonoGame #IndieGames

I didn't know about this strategy of asking them about games that don't exist, but the results immediately did what you said lol:

It rules that Sudden Death (a good time) is exactly -10% on both scores from Hard Target lol

Been working out some issues with the camera in Cosmic Jam and made a little helper entity that renders the physical bounds of the camera. The player can move up to the edges. Upon reaching full speed, the camera will lead the character to show more in front of them.

Pipistrello and the Cursed Yoyo is a great game. Definitely check it out if you're into 2D Zelda games.

The Studio is so good lol

I'm trying to make Cosmic Jam accessible in a few ways. One of those ways is allowing players to adjust colors for important objects in the environment that may be hard to spot when going full speed.
