I finally published my #gmtk #gamejam entry: Xorbitz!

Play it in your browser: xbattlestation.itch.io/xorbitz

I may have stuffed up the indexing of this game by initially choosing not to show it in search results :(

I keep blowing hot & cold on my #gmtk #gamejam entry. Each time I think it isn't worth the effort, I add a constraint and it seems fun again. Still not sure. Nice planets, a scoop mechanism, and you must orbit every planet to progress.

Day 1 done on my #gmtk #gamejam entry. Theme is loops, so I went for orbital mechanics. Got quite a bit done, need to make some nice puzzles and then make it look good :D #monogame #screenshotsaturday #gamedev #indiedev #indiegame

Time for the finishing touches, and then adding as much content as possible in the time left in the #atari #jeffminter #gamejam. Here is the title screen. #screenshotsaturday #gamedev #indiedev #indiegame #monogame

Had a busy couple of days - adding my programmer art, funky backgrounds, sound, kinda-sorta-proper control around levels & scoring. It looks a lot better when its moving. #screenshotsaturday #gamedev #indiedev #indiegame #monogame #gamejam

Here is the weird feature to fit the Jeff Minter #gamejam theme (The Perfect Beast). May I introduce the BeastBuilder. #screenshotsaturday #gamedev #indiedev #indiegame #monogame

First day of Jeff Minter game jam - theme: The Perfect Beast. Got a basic gameloop going, with temporary main sprite pinched from a minter game. Next to add a weird feature that fits the theme. #screenshotsaturday #gamedev #indiedev #indiegame #monogame #gamejam
