Is anyone hungry for a food-themed, retro-inspired action RPG? 😋

Off on an adventure! ⚔️

Made some stuff using pictures I took IRL and turned them into textures :)

A bit of a cave I've been working on too! Trying to go for PS2 era graphics in 4:3

🎮 Didn't do multi platform launch!

Many Kickstarter backers wanted a Switch key, but I couldn't meet the same release date as I was spread too thin and did the porting by myself. It took half a year and eventually launched on the eShop, but didn't show up for a few days in EU..

🐛A key feature was broken at launch!

Even though I had massive help from a few particular beta testers, the "pop up translations" broke right before launch; I was literally uploading test builds every few minutes before launch, but it had to be disabled until fixed 2 days later

📺 Launched without a trailer!

I prioritized getting the game as ready as I could, and this meant that I actually didn't have a full, polished build to record the gameplay with until it was release day. I created the trailer hastily over the next few days and put it on YT.

It's really difficult being an indie game developer.

Shashingo was my first own game launch and I messed up in many ways.

Here's how I failed: 🧵

It's come to my attention that some people still haven't heard about Shashingo..?! 😱

You literally learn Japanese by taking photographs in a condensed Tokyo-inspired city! Out on PC & Switch!

Would you play a game with these graphics? ☺️
