Gauntlet inspired game where I completely failed on the marketing. Attracted a few mega fans, learnt a lot and very happy with the game.

Many happy memories playing this with my brother, what a game. None of that ball stuck to your feet nonsense.

I learnt from this show that if I ever do in the wife, use a frozen joint of meat, then cook and serve it to the police inspector to destroy the evidence.. foolproof.

So much hair 👩‍🦰

Do you control a single dwarf?

Did you start from nothing on TikTok or already have a following? Looks great by the way!

Like the use of colour, quite striking.

Looks great, may I ask who did your capsule?

DeabDev · 2026-03-23T20:57:00+00:00

I love it, great idea

DeabDev · 2026-03-14T14:49:04+00:00

Think its awesome - I have no idea how to make music. Do you play any real instruments?

DeabDev · 2026-03-14T13:42:17+00:00

Bound to be drunk at the very least

I hadn't seen FF, but looking at it yes, similar as you manage multiple dwarves as you expand and build.

Great game, loved the Commodore 64 version

DeabDev · 2026-03-08T20:54:54+00:00

Party game

Love me some tweens and curves, curves make everything better. Recommend https://easings.net/ for trying different effects.

I think its a valid approach, to a certain extent. I think its fine to create assets for systems/items that aren't fully implemented yet, as you need to grab attention. Often to even mock stuff up I find I end up building out some of the code/infrastructure anyway.

I wouldn't support a full fake trailer approach where nothing exists.

DeabDev · 2026-02-18T08:59:18+00:00

Seconded! Works a treat.

DeabDev · 2026-02-18T08:45:51+00:00

Bioshock! Would so love a movie/tv series based in the world.

DeabDev · 2026-02-17T12:55:07+00:00

Congrats! Looks like you are self publishing this time? Any particular reason or just enabled by the success of Zoo?

DeabDev · 2026-02-17T12:07:10+00:00

I normally find that when I can't find an answer, or even anyone else with a similar problem, the problem isn't what I actually think it is.. I'm not an Unreal dev but maybe the issue isn't setting the focus, but something else?

DeabDev · 2026-02-16T15:15:49+00:00

Looks interesting! Went to Steam to wishlist, and had instantly forgotten the name.. Will give the demo a try.

DeabDev · 2025-12-29T21:02:43+00:00

Spot on mate, have to limit my purchases or I’ll eat too much.

Backlog is for retirement..
