I want to thank the Technical university in Kosice for this playtesting opportunity.
Students have an assignment to playtest a game. We provide the game, the university provides students, everyone wins. 🤩🤩🤩

It's safe to assume this studio doesn't use any genAI. Why would we? I love writing code and making music, graphic designers love drawing, narrative designers love writing, voice actors love voice acting. There is no space for genAI.

the idea that lots of gamedevs are secretly using ai is booster bullshit
what on earth would I use genAI tools for? Coming up with ideas? Writing? It’s shit at those
making 3D models? Coding stuff? It’s shit at that too
oh but it’s faster maybe? Did I mention it’s shit at things?
seems important

I don't usually post reviews but this game blew my mind with simplicity, pacing, and how non-grindy the puzzles are. Good job, Tommy!

One More Button on Steam
You are a button. The level is your controller. Move, press, and twist buttons built into the stage itself.

When we were testing Carnage Cliff, we asked playtesters to rate the music from 1 to 10. Half of them gave 3 points, the other half gave 9 or 10. 🤔 WT??
