I think there's a lot more that this game _could_ be, more powerups, more *types* of upgrades. But for now... this is it!

I made a Solitaire Roguelike for Ludum Dare!

It's basically "what if Klondike had powerups that made the game more winnable?"

This was mostly and excuse to learn Godot (which I did by the end of this) but the silly Solitaire game is a nice bonus.

I believe their referring to this game:
lizryerson.itch.io/problem-attic

(it took me a minute to realize that Problem Attic, Space Funeral, and Slave of God are literal titles of actual games and not oblique references)

Problem Attic by lizryerson

a game about prisons, both real and imaginary

⚔️ The indie studio I work at dropped a silly lil' pirate game! ⚔️
It's a turn-based strategy game about pirates who keep backstabbing each other.

There's treasure and several playable characters and it features my art. Find it on Steam, and fair winds to ye! ⛵

Cover art for This Be Mutiny. Below the title, two people are fighting on the deck of a ship. A grinning woman in an oversized pirate's coat and hat is leaping with rapier in hand towards her opponent, a scarred man in a jinbei robe. He defends against her with dual daggers, scowling.

Some day Nintendo fans will understand that Nintendo treats its universes as piles of beloved music and iconography to be remixed and recontextualized into fun new games and not an interconnected linear narrative linked by causality

But it is not this day

A dialog box from Microsoft Visual Studio. The text is black on a black background; all that is legible is an alert emoji (black exclamation mark in a yellow triangle) and a grey button saying No.

Is the LD on October 3rd still on? The blog post from earlier this year seems to say no but the schedule/timer seems to say yes?

That exists! I think it's called zero hour jam or something like that? (Because it starts and ends at the "same" time)

I'm pretty forgetful so that does happen sometimes. But the intended case is tea temperature

"#hellsite" from the most recent GMTK Game Jam was a really fun take on this genre that I would love to see expanded if the devs ever want to take it beyond the jam!

Hinge is After My Time but I've heard good things. Idk if it's still good but it seems like a significant improvement over Tinder
