I can't stop gushing over this every time I see it. Even though I hastily put it together in one day, it came out so good 🥹

I was SO happy about getting 30 more wishlists from organic meetups... only to discover today that 7,000 would be considered a good number for an indie game.
I knew that I was making a game with a niche genre, but finding out how far I am from a standard metric of success terrifies me...

They have so much HP and attack so quickly, it's almost unfair! But if you block their attacks, they become dizzy for a moment.

We made a Practice Mode so you can test your typing speed and words-per-minute! Longer words = More points! 😆
Try it out in our upcoming demo! We're just about done cleaning up the bugs, it'll be up in a few hours to a day or so!

I'm in that kinda mood where the moment I watched the first ep of Takopi, the precaution message at the start said "This is a story about not giving up" I fucking cried man
The anime hasn't started yet and I fucking cried. Something about the words "a story about not giving up" just stabbed me rn

After I did this, a merge in git erased all the files before I could push it to the cloud. 😱
Luckily, I had Unity still open and all the rock and plant placements were still right there in an otherwise blank scene.
I just had to recreate the terrain. Thank goodness.

Every other game is advertising itself as something "combined with Balatro" but don't have anything to do with cards... Why?
It's not like... stacking synergising mechanics is unique to Balatro...
It's a common roguelike mechanic...

Omgg... I can't believe I've only now realised why the frame rate is so bad. These trees have tens of thousands of tris?? I thought SyntyStudios assets were optimised because they make so much low poly stuff and I took it at face value...
Man, I need to replace all these trees...

Assembling some Reptile Kingdom scenes! They're pretty lizard-brained, so they're not very big on... decorum.
To them, shedding is a part of life. The ☠️remains of their prehistoric ancestors are kept and revered for generations.
