WOOO!!  :D

So, now its time to market!!

I'm going to put this game on steam as well, as a learning experience.

I don't really think it will be hugely financially successful, but it will be good to have in my portfolio and the whole experience has been a lot of fun and taught me a lot!



The full version of the game will up on Itch for free for now, however, I'm going to put a $2-$3 price on it once it is up on steam (most likely for the same price)

You can try it here!

The creation (fun) part is over, but there is still much work to be done!

My next big thing other than steam, is getting an updated trailer.  Not gonna lie, that feels like a lot of work, but it will be worth it.



Also, I'm thinking of doing a few more YouTube videos and maybe a stream.



Thanks for keeping up with my journey, and thanks for all the feedback and support! 

Have a great day!

Making progress with getting the game on steam! 

I'm a bit dopey so it's taking me a while to figure out



In the meantime... Check out my new trailer!!  :D

Congrats on finishing the game! I love the new trailer. I think it shows off the game's personality and gameplay very well. Love that music. Good luck.

   Cheers Mate!!!

Thanks for the support and the kind words!!!

I don't think I would have stayed motivated to finish it without people like yourself!

I have been making games at home just for fun using gamemaker for about 15 years.
Happy to announce that after all this time, I have finally got a game up on steam! 





This is more about a learning experience for me, I'm not expecting to make money. 

Heres a link to the store page -

If you want to play but really don't have the money, hit me up and I'll send you a key!
I really just want to get the game out there and see people play it

Hey!

I've decided to start sharing my GameDev journey for Roopit and Boopit!

I think the easiest way to do that is to record it, rather than try and type the whole thing out.

So I made a video!

Hey I have seen this game floating around on Reddit. Looks really original! It was the cinematic animations that really caught my eye - they are rather surreal. That being said, I haven't played something like this before so the concept is quite intriguing. It sound like you have learned a lot making this, it is cool how quickly the project has come together. Do you think your next game would have a similar art style? I'd love to see what it would be like if you pushed the Don't Hug Me I'm Scared vibe further.

[TheSneaK]

Hey!  Thanks so much for the kind words mate! 

I'm not 100% set on what my next game is going to be yet, but I have been practicing some sprites.


I was thinking of making the main character this alien.


I am hoping to keep the same feel in the art as Roopi and Boopit, but to improve as well.

What do you think of these character sprites so far?  Any suggestions?

Also, I love Don't Hug Me I'm Scared!  I should go see if there are any new ones I haven't seen!
