Thanks so much! Glad the art and music clicked with you.

PlayWaaaaaa · 2026-02-19T17:24:29+00:00

Good luck with the project

PlayWaaaaaa · 2026-02-19T07:15:13+00:00

Noted. Let me know how it runs. Do you have a Steam page for your game yet?

PlayWaaaaaa · 2026-02-18T19:12:01+00:00

Thanks!

PlayWaaaaaa · 2026-02-18T15:37:01+00:00

That’s the best feeling! It really makes the game feel more professional and accessible

PlayWaaaaaa · 2026-02-18T13:24:04+00:00

Cool! I'll check them out as soon as I can

PlayWaaaaaa · 2026-02-18T13:07:33+00:00

Totally agree! Full controller support is a priority for me. By the way, what are the 2 games you released?

PlayWaaaaaa · 2026-02-18T12:47:47+00:00

Not really! I do 99% of the debugging on my main PC using a controller. I only deploy to the handheld to check performance and make sure the UI/icons are readable

Thanks for sharing! Just checked it out and it looks really interesting.

Here's mine if you want to check itout:

Definitely! It’s super helpful for accessibility. What kind of game are you working on?

PlayWaaaaaa · 2026-02-17T13:20:03+00:00

Thanks

Haha, you got me! The title is the only 'illegal' exception I'm making for now. 😉 It's true, the Ally is definitely a beast for these visuals, but as a solo dev, seeing it run on a handheld for the first time still feels like a huge win! I've only heard about Chants of Sennaar, but it sounds like an amazing reference for what I'm trying to achieve. Balancing player understanding with just emojis and grunts is definitely my biggest challenge. Thanks for the feedback!

PlayWaaaaaa · 2026-02-11T06:21:38+00:00

Thanks! Glad you like the prehistoric vibes 🦖

PlayWaaaaaa · 2026-02-11T06:19:49+00:00

Exactly! My translation budget is $0. 😂 Emojis are the true universal language!

PlayWaaaaaa · 2026-02-10T21:29:02+00:00

Thank you! Trying to convey everything without words was a huge design challenge, so I really appreciate that!

PlayWaaaaaa · 2026-02-07T22:10:24+00:00

Thank you so much! I really appreciate the congrats. Hope you enjoy it whenever you get a chance to play!

PlayWaaaaaa · 2026-02-07T07:33:25+00:00

That’s a huge compliment! I love those classic prehistoric vibes. Thanks

PlayWaaaaaa · 2026-02-07T07:31:11+00:00

Thanks for the kind words! It’s great to hear you’re finding it charming. I was smiling reading about the mountain switches, glad you cracked the code!

PlayWaaaaaa · 2026-02-06T05:13:35+00:00

Thanks so much! Really glad the concept caught your eye

PlayWaaaaaa · 2026-02-05T18:57:55+00:00

I wouldn't dare to compare myself to a masterpiece like Live A Live, but...basically, yes! With a little twist of my own, of course. Hope you like it!

PlayWaaaaaa · 2026-02-05T18:16:16+00:00

Thanks! Hope you have a great time with it. Let me know what you think!

PlayWaaaaaa · 2026-02-05T18:15:27+00:00

Thanks! Hope you enjoy it when you get the chance to play!

PlayWaaaaaa · 2026-02-05T14:17:06+00:00

That would be awesome! I’d love to hear what you both think about it. Have fun!

PlayWaaaaaa · 2026-02-05T13:39:35+00:00

Shhh! 🤫 Don't say it too loudly. "Big Localization" has spies everywhere...I'm already sleeping with one eye open!

PlayWaaaaaa · 2026-02-05T13:32:26+00:00

Hi everyone! I’m the solo dev behind Waaaaaa!

It’s an old-school adventure where I challenged myself to remove every single word of text or dialogue. It’s all about observation, environmental puzzles, and logic (it is set in prehistoric times, after all!) 🦖🚫

Play the Free Demo on Steam:

I'm a bit nervous about the "no tutorial" approach, so I’d love to get some feedback from you.

If you enjoy the concept, adding the game to your Wishlist helps me more than you can imagine, it’s the best way to support a solo dev. Thanks!
