Love seeing all the posts for the "Just make it exist first" trend because it really highlights the timescale of game dev!

From older character designs, static cameras and unrefined game design to our current demo, we've come so far since our first in-engine version in January!

Hey #PitchYaGame!

Phasmopass is a Turn-Based Roguelite set in a supernatural Reality Show, where teams compete in Volleyball matches to be the last ones standing!

The winner of the show is promised anything they can imagine!

…or so the marketing says…

We had a great time showing off Phasmopass at the latest Talk and Play!

We got a lot of good Feedback and hope to implement all of it soon! Looking forward to future events!

Phasmopass will feature deep Character customization with strange items and ghosts to bond with, as well as a unique Reality-Show-inspired roguelite structure!

However, we're still working on perfecting our core loop beforehand, so we're looking forward to playtesting our combat a lot soon!

The second twist?

Reefsong was developed as university project where we had to make a unique input device!

We built the a staff to resemble the mermaids weapon out of a cardboard tube, a Blue Snowball and a Joycon for movement (we tried motion controls first but they were too buggy🥲)

The core loop is very simple;

1) Find polluting ships dropped by the mothership!
2) Capsize them with powerful waves!
3) Purify them into a reef that local wildlife can use as a habitat!

The twist?

You have to SING to do so. High notes purify your surroundings and low notes create waves!

We were super honored to be allowed to exhibit Bug Off! at last year's @godotcon.bsky.social Berlin 2024!

It was a super memorable experience, and we met so many new #godot developers there.

Really happy to be working in this engine and excited for all the new updates coming out for it!

You can dance with 5 different partners and grow closer to them over the course of three difficulty levels, and maybe even go out on a date...? 😳👉👈
