Sektori features a pretty beefy #techno soundtrack by my awesome brother Tommi. Here's a sneak preview of all the tracks. Only 4 days until release! #indiegame

Oh yeah? Bring it, Sektori can handle it! Why not stealth drop GTA6 too while at it!

I was watching a Japanese Youtuber checking out my game, and this was the autotranslated name of my game. 😂🤣

Thanks! Had to have a look at my old documents, and it seems that's pretty close to what I had written down, heh.

I used to draw more. The current project has killed all that for some reason. I still like this one a lot (2017, from Barbearian).

Story of temp assets. In 2008 I as a joke wrote 'Change your pants like you have never changed before!' to a text box, thinking someone will change it. 2025, it's still there. Maybe some day they'll change it. #gamedev

I love this weird AI generated description of my game trailer on some spam Youtube channel.

Sektori (week 205): That's a lot of diamond level music coming your way soon. I wish I could already press the release button, but it's got to wait for me to finish the game first too. 😅

Sektori (week 205): Making all kinds of store+OS assets. Many aspect ratios, many logo requirements, many art requirements, many resolutions... This is what I have so far (not to scale vs each other). Not perfectly happy with the art, but not going to redo everything.

Sektori (week 205): Trailer updated. Just swapped some footage from the old trailer. Even that took a day on this old computer. Now taking new screenshots and waiting for more localizations to arrive (2.5 languages left).

Sektori (week 204): Testing testing testing! More languages dropping in. I think Korean language is my favourite visually. It just looks so cool! I think I'll make it the only support language now, sorry. 😎

Sektori (week 204): There it is. The final "Making Of" video. Last 4+ years of my life. Game's not "done done" yet, but nothing to show left to do really.

Sektori (week 203): Originally I implemented leaderboards so you could only change pages, but Xbox requirements needed me to select per individual user (to show gamer profiles). So changed it to do that. Kludge upon kludge at this point, but it works. Ok, what's next... #screenshotsaturday #indiedev

Sektori (week 201): First console port done to the point I can. Now it shall wait before finalizing starts. Time to move to the next one and get overwhelmed by 23523 docs again. (Also let's test the new bsky video resolution, maybe videos look nice now here?)

Sektori (week 196): Very frustrating when the platform changes under you. The game is practically finished except porting, but I have to transition from Unity 2022 to 6, as 2022 LTS is out of support now. This resulted in a dozen of bugs (due to subtle Unity changes) I had to figure out and fix.
