Trying to tackle creating an indie game while working full time is hard. As interesting projects crop up during my day job that take more and more of my time, I've found it more difficult to shift gears and work on my little Indie game.

Happy There Is A Circulatory System Walking Through The Kitchen Day to all who celebrate.

Idk if it was just me, but MacOS was definitely the hardest OS to compile Godot Export Templates for and get up and running on Steam. But I'm proud to announce 5th Cataclysm will support MacOS!

I've been very absent updating #5thCataclysm. This is because I've been busy on making new content for the full game! But also my day job has been very busy. But no matter, to get back in the groove of things, I'm working on building for MacOS!

Finally got a brand new (to me) M1 Macbook Air so I can build 5th Cataclysm for MacOS and IOS!

Spent my post-July 4th hangover cutting together a new trailer! The old one was using some seriously out of date footage 😅

Microsoft has just crushed the lives of thousands of people.

My heart breaks for everyone who was caught in the Microsoft Layoffs and for all the hard work on those cancelled projects that was thrown away. I know people who have spent their whole careers at this point working on those projects.
I'm too angry to put a coherent statement together.

Years of my close friends love and passion tossed in the garbage. The smartest people I know kicked out like they are nothing.

All so some rich fuckers can get richer.

Fuck Microsoft. Fuck the game industry.

There is also a slate of new capsule art and a LOGO made by my bro Enrique Romero (www.artstation.com/enriquerdesign)

Been working on a quest system for 5th Cataclysm, so here's an example of being offered a quest in dialogue! There are also NPCs that give out randomized quests befitting of your current progress.

Having a portable method to play and test your #indiegame is so convenient! I've had some of the best playtest sessions so far by handing this over to new friends at the bar. Building 5th Cataclysm for #android and #linux for steamdeck from the start has been so helpful!

Blue Stinger on Sega Dreamcast asks the important question of would you rather play as a generic everyman named Eliot, or as the ultimate male specimen named DOGS BOWER.

Made new animations for playing cards outside of battle! Using the old ones as the animations that play when you pick up a card. Obviously the sprite is pretty small in game and the speed is a bit different than the .gif shows (plus in game you have legs!).

Definitely not a surprise to anyone that's worked on anything but damn it makes a huge difference to properly name your updates. Feeling mighty dumb after seeing how much of a difference just calling my last path The Compendium Update made!

New 5th Cataclysm Update - The Compendium Update!!!
The Compendium Screen tracks all of the cards you collect. Whenever you find a new kind of card, it is added to this screen and will give you info about it!

Working on a Compendium mechanic for the next patch for the 5th Cataclysm demo! This will ultimately allow the shops to restock based on cards that you've found and sold to them.
