‼️Holy moley, thanks, all! From being part of the Made in NZ 2025 Steam sale, Straycloud received a boatload of new wishlists today. Seems like a good time to repost our most recent trailer. And again, check out all the great games from Aotearoa!

Cheating a bit this #screenshotsaturday, as this isn't an in-game asset. More like a promo piece. Here it is in a dark green and a light green colour scheme

✨Happy #screenshotsaturday! 🗺️ I've started building out the town tileset based on my old concept art for it (tileset WIP on left, concept on right). Not much progress yet, but feels good to get it going.

✨More under the hood refactoring, plus a little temp progress bar that tracks accuracy vs. what will in the future be damage to the enemy. Happy #screenshotsaturday!

🚧 WIP 🚧 update for the rhythm battle portion of Straycloud! Reconciled free player state with rhythm battle state, and added the first step to tracking defending accuracy (see lower right for % indicator). All assets are WIP. Happy #screenshotsaturday!

🎵 A very basic proof of concept for the game’s boss “battles,” which will play out as a rhythm game. Assets are placeholder. I’ve built a system for a controller to interpret an array of beat markers and create objects to hit these four shield guys in time, so that’s a start!

🕳️ Trying some new things with pits/falling. Not sure how fun platform dashing is, but the platforms over the ocean fit what I'm trying to do with worldbuilding. Def need a splash animation now 💦
