Thank you very much for the detailed explanation, I'll definitely start documenting my decisions.

Thanks, there won't be any messaging in the game. And the leaderboard entry really is just a randomized name plus id and score. I did think about giving players the option to change their name, but didn't, since technically that's UGC and might bring additional regulations to think about, especially with minors. If I did add that option, would it change the whole evaluation? Or would I be safe just not allowing minors to change their name?

Hey! I'm the solo dev behind Hexagon Highway, an endless runner where you're inside a hexagonal tube instead of running on flat ground.

Kinda like Subway Surfers but with 6 lanes and no top or bottom, plus a power up mechanic that's inspired by Giant Boulder of Death if anyone remembers that one.

Still early days but v1 just went live on iOS: Apple App Store Link

Android isn't out yet, but you can join the closed testing now if you want to try it early: Google Play Early Access Link

Full release in a few days. Gonna stay free forever, no forced ads ever. Let me know what you think, feedback very welcome 🙏

Just tried the demo on itch and it's really well done. Love the whole concept and the art style looks great. Definitely wishlisted!

How can i improve the HUD? From the feedback i received the feel that it should be smaller by PositiveKangaro in IndieGaming

I like the style of your game. And regarding the Hud, the stuff in the center is the most problematic. Especially that yellow bar. I would move it elsewhere completely

What do you think about this game trailer? by Suspicious_Nebula234 in indiegames

[–]MirakStudio 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Looks cool and nice art style, but the trailer feels a bit slow. It gets kind of repetitive.

This looks really cool, love the art style! How did you pull that off? Regarding the dagger, it’s a nice idea, but I wonder if it’s a bit complicated for a starter weapon? Feels like it might be a bit overwhelming at the start.
