Holiday sales may be over, but if you already have Anodyne 1 or 2, you can still get Angeline Era at a discount!!
Miss the launch sale? You're in luck, because if you own Anodyne or Anodyne 2, you can get Angeline Era for 15% off with one of the Analgesic Adventure bundles!!

Multiple players have cleared the challenges in Angeline Era even I wasn't sure were possible! (Level 1 Melos Trick Boss Rush and All Scales on max difficulty). I have concluded that the action design of the game is A Success.

I am lightly searching for work : )
I finished up on Big Hops at the end of November and planned to take all of December to work full time on Order Automatica.
I'll probably make a more thorough post later, but if you have need for a programmer/designer I'd be happy to talk!

The Pokemon Advanced Battle theme sounds Christian to me. The kind of "oooohh ohh" and lyrics about nature/cosmos. Could easily be rewritten for your church's next Vacation Bible School

The feeling of leaping thru levels, flipping your "health" between both dangerous extremes is incredible
Even the Ocean (2016, also on consoles) has a storybook atmosphere that is off the charts though, and how the 2-way health bar has you consider the environment is pretty cool and I wish another game would use it!

Sephonie (2022, also on consoles) is part 3D-visual-novel, part unique 3D platformer, part unique puzzle-like system. Hard to describe succinctly, but it's a 3D platformer that certainly goes places!! Unconventional along a lot of fronts - mechanically, narratively, etc.

Did you know? Marina and I have made story-focused platformers! You can now get them in a new Steam bundle:
They're more divisive than AE and the Anodynes, but the players who love Even the Ocean and/or Sephonie REALLY like them. Give 'em a try!
