Hope you like the new Mistpaw Ravine demo I made for the Steam Next Fest.
This is my most ambitious game ever. It's taken over a year of really hard, constant work to get here and I just hope you like it 🥰

After a much-deserved rest (and celebratory pizza)... I then spent the following day designing the full version of the game 😅
Will The Sun Keeps Exploding be my next game after I finish Mistpaw Ravine?
I don't know. But I know it'd be a blast to make.

And so, even with taking my time committing to the jam and starting late, I submitted my completed game 4 hours before the deadline.
I did it :)
My first game jam, my 5th game ever, made in about 4 days.

For those who don't know, the theme of the jam wasn't revealed until it started on the first day.
I was actually fully intending on not participating unless the theme really sparked a great idea. I have so much on my plate right now! But "Death is an Opportunity" really got me

The jam is over and my game The Sun Keeps Exploding got into the top 100 of #jamsepticeye. Out of over 1000 other entries!
I've never done a game jam before so I thought it'd be fun to write a thread breaking down the whole process 🧵

My game has little cats who collect mist and turn it into water but sometimes you don't want to do that. Sometimes you want little wizard cats to blow it up with lightning instead
