Random person who plays indie games, you are the most important cog in an indie game's success.
Most gamers don't know or care that indies exist.... unless a friend tells them.
Our games succeed because you tell other people you liked our game. Word of mouth is the best marketing there is.

Every week, Seattle neighbors gather to make "whistle kits" — small tools to alert the community when ICE is nearby. The idea: Turn silence into solidarity.

Heatwave's last major update, will be available on NOVEMBER 12!!! It will also be releasing on steam then as well. Most notably, it will contain a ~100k word visual novel story mode, and 4 new "secret" characters, along with balance changes, and bug fixes. ❤️

Heatwave was the very first game featured on Niche Fighter Monday. This chunky pixel airdasher seems tailor made for my tastes. And it helped kickstart my community.
I feel connected to it in some fundamental way.

Crazy to release crossplay and not even notify players it needs to be turned on. (Also push up your delay to 3-4 instead of 1-2)
Important PSA for Virtua Fighter 5 REVO World Stage players:
Crossplay for netplay is not enabled by default!
It needs to be turned on in the GAME SETTINGS menu!
Turn this on if you want to play against players using different consoles online. Not sure why it's off by default.

sorry, I also just got reminded of the time a brand that sells themselves as being "pro-LGBT" sent me press-ons and they only came in the smallest sizes
when I told the brand they didn't fit so I couldn't show them off in a post, they cut me off entirely and kept posting abt supporting trans people

HOW IT WORKS:
Most characters have a 12-frame high jab (P) and low jab (2P). If two attacks collide on the same frame, the one that does more damage wins. So at +2, you can use a 14f attack. At +5, a 17f attack, and so on.
The +7 can be deadly. (2/2)

Backdash can avoid pokes like P/6P/2P even from disadvantage, but you will be Counter Hit if they hit you. Plus, every character has a move (often 3K) that enables a huge combo if it hits a backdash. Use wisely, moving can be dangerous! (2/2)

VF has four universal dashes: 66/44/33/11. Most can cancel into each other and into Evades (sidesteps). You can attack while dashing, but can only guard during 66 and 33. This tends to bring the players into close range over time. (1/2)

THROW ESCAPES:
Each time you guard, press and hold G then P. You now have a Throw Escape ready. In VF, you don't react to throws, you just need P+G held while guarding. This technique is called Lazy Throw Escape (LTE for short). (1/2)

Throw inputs end in forward or back, or are neutral. 6P+G escapes forward, 4P+G escapes back, P+G escapes neutral. No visual tells; it's a 1-of-3 guess. If you don't want to guess escapes, crouch or attack to avoid throws. (2/2)

二択 (Nitaku - "two choice")
+6 to +9 gives a strong mixup. Pressing any strike might be met with a Counter Hit into a 30% combo or more. But if they choose throw, there is no movement option to avoid it... except, strike! ANY strike! (1/2)

Going for a rewarding mid/throw mix in +6 to +9 situations is key to improving your offense. But your opponent can still defend with guard and throw escape! Plus, strikes beat throws by definition! Watch for the defensive launcher! (2/2)
