Solo developer from Mexico working in "WELCOME TO ELA".

Hace 3 dias terminé "memorias de hielo" de steven erikson y aun lo sigo procesando.
Es casi como si el libro fuera una constante "sanderlanch" de principio a fin pero que a diferencia de jardines de la luna o puertas de casa de la muerte aquí se entiende prácticamente todo.

I created a page on Itch.io.

blosthgd.itch.io/welcome-to-ela

No idea if I did it right and the page is public btw.

Trying to design an enemy that looks like a Jojo villain.

Steam next fest really works.
I did absolutely zero marketing and still got a 5675% increase in wishlists, which is only over 200 but that's quite something for me.

I updated the steam page for the main game in preparation for the Steam Next Fest. I'll try to update the game build as well but that's going to take a few more days.

What do you think? I, II, III or IV?
I like the black and white only but I feel like adding color to special enemies could be cool.

At first, I panicked but then I thought: fair enough, I guess my game is not good enough anyway.

I received the second email a few minutes later and I was like: God Newell why are you playing with my feelings?

I saw these pictures somewhere else and now can't stop thinking about them. It's so awfully wrong and messy that I kind of like it...

In Welcome to Ela you have 4 days to explore 4 different areas. The factory area is available in the demo, the next one I want to complete is the hospital.

Finally the demo for "Welcome to Ela" has been released on steam!

If you are interested in this project, please give it a try and leave a review, any feedback is appreciated. It takes about 40 minutes.

So everything is approved but for some reason the DEMO store page cannot be released because the MAIN GAME store page is not live... but it is live, it's been for several months... Oh well, time to wait for steam support to do their magic.

Finally! After two rejections, the demo store page has been approved. I'll publish it today, the earliest release date should be 2 weeks from now.
Ironically, the main store page was approved at 1st try.

My demo was approved at the first try, nice! When I get home I'll see if I can publish it or still have to wait 2-3 weeks since approval.

Finally! I uploaded the demo for Welcome to Ela to steam. The process was annoying as hell but it's finally done. Nothing else left to do but to wait.

How it started vs how it's going.

Next week I'll do my first attempt on uploading the demo to steam, hope everything goes smooth and well.

I was not planning to add a tutorial as I think the combat system is "very straight forward" but maybe it just looks like that to me so I added some text to the first combat in the game to explain how it works.

I had to go to youtube to look it up, never heard of it before... or at least that's what I thought.
Apparently I watched a 1hr 40min essay of that game and somehow I forgot?
