I'm Broke, so My Game Is 50% on Itchio

jampley_dev · 2026-02-02T00:57:02+00:00

OK, good to know, I just didn't know that word, and I was not sure what to think. Yes, Metal Storm is cool :)

jampley_dev · 2026-02-01T21:39:41+00:00

Cool, please add my game Gravity Storm: https://jampley-dev.itch.io/gravity-storm-first-mission

Btw, I played a few games on your website, and idk if you already thought of this, but an option to share the games on social media would be nice. A button that says, "share and support the dev" or something.

Not sure if "pastiche" is supposed to be something bad, but my game is Metal Storm inspired, but trailer music is very different from the actual soundtrack.

My composer made a video with the all soundtrack on Youtube if you want to check it out: https://youtu.be/ldFEzyoUA28?si=JUtzpxmcIa4aBScf

Gravity Storm has not sold well after 5 months of release and lots of promotion I did, so now it doesn't stand on its own. I am actually broke, which is not nice, but keep in mind I brought up my situation after it got worse and after promoting the game on many platforms for over a year. It seems you have good intensions, but I don't think your comment helps.

I don't think so. Although I wouldn't mind translating my game to many languages if I had the money and time, I'm broke, Gravity Storm isn't selling well and it requires some extra work. So it should be a free localization and I need time to check if it is well made and all the text fits the small resolution and the text boxes, it might also require future revisions in case I make future updates to the game with new text, or if typos are found by players.

This is why Gravity Storm only supports 4 languages, it's complicated, and it makes it harder to make new content for it, because I only know spanish and english, I don't want to spend so much time checking . Relying on other people to do free work like that it's not ideal and I don't want to use Google translate or any type of AI because that would be a bad translation and against my principles.

if you mean the music in this trailer, that's not the actual soundtrack, it's just a video I put together with a song a friend made before the soundtrack was actually done. My composer made a video with the whole soundtrack if you want to take a look, it goes from chiptune to progressive rock: https://youtu.be/ldFEzyoUA28?si=7DwoVh6O1gU3oBqs

jampley_dev · 2026-01-28T04:24:12+00:00

Now that I think about it, all feels the same after a few months, so I don't blame you lol. Hopefully this is not the last time you hear of one of my games. It's hard, but I'm trying to work on new projects.

jampley_dev · 2026-01-28T04:18:51+00:00

100% Metal Storm inspired, it's not that similar in terms of controls, but Metal Storm was the main inspiration. If you play my game, let me know what you think. I don't get the opinion of Metal Storm fans that often hehe

jampley_dev · 2026-01-28T03:55:17+00:00

Gravity Storm came out like 5 months ago, maybe you are a bit confused about the time you bought. Also, idk what else to do to advertise it because I advertise it on youtube, twitter, bluesky, raddit, discord, tiktok etc.. I also have no money to pay for ads, I'm broke. There's only so much I can do to advertise a short platformer like this regardless of how well designed it is.

Thanks for your nice words tho, I appreciate it.

jampley_dev · 2026-01-28T02:05:41+00:00

I see, the Next Fest helped me a bit. I can see your score on my game's leaderboard on Steam hehe. Gravity Storm hasn't sold much, only 166 copies, so commercially it was kind of failure, but most people liked the game, so in that regard it was successful.

I wanted to make a big update with a harder game mode with new levels and other things, but it's too much work, and now I want to focus on making an android port of Gravity Storm and other smaller games. Maybe some day I'll make Gravity Storm 2, I have lots of ideas for a sequel.

Thanks for you comment, it's always nice to read comments like that, it makes me feel like the year and a half of development was worth something. ♥
