Match Shot Chimera will now launch Sept 24

The game was ready for Sept 9, but the release button is missing today. We miss you, release button 💔

But this means more time to polish, promote... and wishlist ;)

See you on Sept 24, better than ever! store.steampowered.com/app/3552220/...

Two new characters for my match-3 shmup: Wally and Perry!

They're more defensive. It's in the names.

This was supposed to be footage for the release trailer but I left the music on 💀

A bunch of enemies, animations, and attack design later...
King Killion Billions is really coming along!

it's still #screenshotsaturday here! This is King Killion Billions so far. This sneaky fella took a lot of work. He'll be the final boss... for now.

Making good progress on these "beam network" enemies. They look for new connections whenever one of them gets destroyed. #gamedev #screenshotsaturday

It's been complicated to make a more ambitious/complicated space background that keeps the foreground readable in such a flat style, but I'm really into this look so far! #gamedev

I'm beginning to regret all of the models I've made that *didn't* have a transform-to-mouths animation...

New boss incoming for Match Shot Chimera!

is King Killion Billions a good name?

Thanks for the #SteamNextFest feedback and wishlists for Match Shot Chimera!

DID YOU KNOW that you can review demos on Steam, and that can really help the game? The form only shows up after you install the demo, so it's easy to miss!

If you enjoyed the demo, please consider leaving a review❤️

#screenshotsaturday I've been working on this new character and his shield for my match-3 shmup! His name is Wally.

Shielding will eventually break the block you're holding, but that will also drop a fresh shield wall for you.

This is Perry!

I reworked my player prefab structure so that I can drop in a child prefab of "character bits" for things like character model, unique skills, etc.

Time to have fun with new character models! #gamedev

This excellent #ClairObscur boss music has been stuck in my head all morning

I actually do need help deciding on this new capsule art. Does this make enough of a difference in readability/clarity? The subject of the art is certainly a bit odd! I can see it being too messy now. #gamedev #steam

Hats by grandma because kid wanted to stream with me... didn't tell me I had a magikarp whisker up my nose. Well played.

Improved game-feel and effects and tons of tweaks and fixes!

Wishlists and reviews are hugely helpful.

It looks like Cloudbase Prime’s dynamic res and shadow quality code works on Nintendo Switch 2, resulting in full 1080, higher fps and nicer shadows!

It’s nice to see this #gamedev pay off years later :).

I wish it magically ran at 4k too, but it’s just running as a switch 1 game!

I've been fiddling with post-processing to improve the feel of match explosions in my match-3 shmup, but I ALSO used it to improve the outline renderer to the point I'm tempted to make it the default... what do you think? #gamedev
