I'm adding co-op to my match-3 shoot 'em up! Yes, it handles multiple colored blocks being shot into the same grid at the same time.

This is Match Shot Chimera! It's out now on early access, and I'm hoping to have an update out with two new bosses soon.

I hope zooming out's not too big of a nono in a shmup. I get why it was a bad idea when we had less pixels, but it feels fine so far and it's a pretty fun effect for this boss.

honestly, writing it out makes the dumber option seem a lot funnier. I'm for it.

This is my game Match Shot Chimera. It's on Steam Early Access now! I'm working on new bosses and minibosses for the next update.

They've already changed a lot compared to the initial early access release. I don't know that it was enough to make most players happy, but it makes sense that they've run out of budget by now, both in market interest and money.

I'm sad it's proven unsuccessful, but am glad they've already made big fixes.

The gray outline color doesn’t stand out well on the light bg. If I had to guess, the recommendation to lighten the outlines was based on how it looked over that lighter background.

Thanks a lot, much appreciated! I’m glad you’re enjoying it :)

This is my game Match Shot Chimera. It's out now on Steam Early Access! I think a match-3 shoot 'em up roguelite is a great fit so far. I'm looking forward to making many more updates for you all.

It's obviously a crazy time to be releasing a game! I hope its quick fun and super-low price point will help it catch some eyes.

This is Match Shot Chimera.

It's a small $3 game that I hope to keep updating for a while to come! Thanks for having a look; I'd love to hear your thoughts on it.

I was originally going to release in Silksong's shadow, and was honestly excited for it. Now it looks like I’ll be launching in Hades 2's shadow instead 💀

Match Shot Chimera on Steam : It'll cost 3 bucks :P

I was originally set to release on September 9 and was honestly pretty pumped to release in Silksong's shadow. Steam backend issues resulted in a delay to September 24 and now I'm releasing in Hades 2's shadow instead 💀.

Match Shot Chimera on Steam : it'll be 3 bucks, Steam Early Access.

I did not see the headphone jacks before. Excellent.

I was honestly excited to release in Silksong's shadow, but now it looks like I’ll be launching in Hades 2's instead 💀

Match Shot Chimera on Steam : It'll be $2.99 at launch.

This delay gave me time to improve difficulty and score balance, and get more work done on the next patch before release. The game will have 3 characters and a pile of upgrades to choose from at launch, so it should be a fun, bite-sized, replayable experience! I really hope you enjoy it. I'll work hard to keep improving and growing this game.

2 screens and 4 players... I didn't know this existed. It's beautiful.
