Essssam - Bit ESC Out Now!

I keep sneaking small (and kinda pointless) stuff in Bit ESC updates. Like Bit here going all 😍 when they see the cat.

Anyway... a big Bit ESC update should go live later today!

📚 I HATE tutorials so I tried to make Bit ESC's tutorial interesting by making you jump into a mascot-platformer world to learn the ropes.

Gonna bring back some of the features I had to cut to make Bit ESC's launch over the course of the week. Including challenges, boss fights, music and most importantly a few silly interactions.

There were a lot of little wins while developing Bit ESC. I keep needing to remind myself to celebrate those.

Bit ESC is inspired by work culture so if you idle for a while, Bit might get a temp boost when resuming play because we all need a break sometimes.

This mechanic though might be confusing players so I'm thinking of disabling it. What do you think?

Bit ESC's roadmap going forward is up on Steam (applies to the Xbox version as well) for players to know what's to come:

Well... They weren't kidding when they said pixel-art platformers don't do well on Steam.

Super appreciative of everyone who's reached out to report a bug in Bit ESC. You didn't need to do that but thanks to you, Bit ESC is in a much better state for all players.

If you've enjoyed Bit ESC, please leave a review on Xbox or Steam. It helps out a ton. Thank you ❤️

Another couple of days of bug-fixing 🪲 and the severity of bugs has decreased considerably. Still a few more to fix but we're almost there.

It's been a stressful couple of days of bug-fixing but a lot has been fixed and there are still more fixes/improvements to come. Sorry if you've hit a bug or crash.

You fight ninjas in Bit ESC. What do ninjas have to do with the theme? Well... I made them red, green and blue... RGB.?.

A patch fixing and improving a bunch of stuff in Bit ESC should go live later today.

If you've checked out the game (thank you ❤️) and encountered any bugs or weird behavior, please let me know here or on the Steam forums.

They say don't make a feature you'll use only once. Well Bit ESC is full of those one offs against my better judgement 😵

Launching Bit ESC this Friday!!

#SteamNextFest just started! Here's a fun fact: I botched Bit ESC's Next Fest by forgetting to include a critical DLL file with the game 😖

Made this little game a year ago to test Bit ESC's engine. The engine has become much more stable since so it needs updating but it's available for free on Steam if you'd like to check it out. While there, why not wishlist Bit ESC too 😊

‼️Bit ESC is NOT a precision platformer. The game is designed to be an adventure you go on with surprises and some variety sprinkled throughout rather than a challenge you need to overcome. Think more Mario than Celeste.

Anyways... 6 DAYS LEFT! 👀
