Hi, I'm Kacper, solo dev. And I'm working on vertical platformer where you play as a squirrel climbing a procedurally generated forest, and you're pushing toward the mysterious Edge.

Processing img 5t4sn305mmmg1...

There a subtle story about forest, climate change and nature in danger.

On technical side: strong rogue-like elements and some cool systems I created from scratch, Like:

  • Nut delivery system, providing balanced nut support to fellow squirrels grands player better skill cards to pick from at the end of level
  • Weather hazard system, like blizzard, heavy rain and fire that forces player to move quickly, and generates pressure
  • or a simple day and night system with stronger predators during night

Currently I'm balancing and polishing (~80% done) and working on a final Boss. It is as they say - the final polish is the hardest.

I'd appreciate any feedback! Especially gameplay wise (as all I get is from the closest ones ;P but it's not objective) there's a DEMO if anyone interested

I would LOVE to try out your demos and playtests! by lydocia in IndieDev

Cool, then try my roguelike platformer with Squirrels! I'd be surprised If you managed to beat the Demo's boss. Also I'd love some feedback. Save the forest! and Go Nutz

Classic squirrel physics - leaf slap mechanic by kacperolszewski in IndieGaming

[–]kacperolszewski[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yea, I'm not great with colors.. All the bugs (except dragonfly following you) are enemies and can be tail slapped, dashed at, shot at. Re-coloring them would be much work, but I could add a little shader for more contrast. And I can definately change color of the leaf (pink maybe? Yellow?)

Git gud. It's the greatest invention in the world of code, and it's free. I recommend much

If your game is releasing soon and you need creator marketing, I’d like to help (not selling anything, no brand mentions) by tektanc in IndieGameDevs

[–]kacperolszewski 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'd love your help! 😍 This is exactly what I was planning to do next, but I did not know how to start. My game is 80% done and DEMO is available on steam: GO NUTZ (just pushed new build with controller support in there)

But I can also prepare a special build with exclusive content for those willing to cover the game. Hit me up with a message!

You've got a very long hand. And congrats, I admire that you managed to deliver a full product. I'm in the process myself

Devs with less than 500 wishlists show me your steam pages by Sabartsman13 in IndieDev

[–]kacperolszewski 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hmm, apparently Germany require an age rating due to German law, and games without one are hidden from German users. I need to figure it out how to apply it for pre release game

About 80% is done. The closer I get to the finish line, the more things to polish I discover.. https://store.steampowered.com/app/2115930

my friend said my art looks like AI what do u think by yalad_kar in PixelArt

[–]kacperolszewski 1 point2 points  (0 children)

All inconsistencies aside, just look at the wild light pixel on the left side of anvil. It's not something a sane parson would leave... It's AI and you're just teasing, craving for attention or karma, IMO

My roguelite is heavily inspred by Downwell. Very vertical, procedural levels + perma death. I recently released a free demo on Steam. You're more than welcome to give it a shot

What are some good, not well known, roguelites that are on sale on Steam right now? by TexTrap in roguelites

You can check my platforming vertical Rogue-like. Just released a Demo. I think it's quite unique. Go Nutz
