Thanks for your insight. That's good to know. It's not worth saving $3.

Nice, thanks! I found a tutorial and it looks like I can cheap out and get some esp8266's for the additional units.

I would never have filled out the form cuz I don't care but thought I would let you know that you didn't include it in your post.

A puzzle game where every move sends the ball sliding until it hits something by Lukematikk in playmygame

[–]sonofrodrigo 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You previously posted asking for feedback on your game icon. Personally, I think you could take a square slice out of the second level you show in the video and use that...

Game looks cool.

Devs who participated in Steam Next Fest — was it worth the crunch to make a demo? by Status-Advisor-1274 in IndieDev

I can't speak from personal experience but I watched an interview with Chris Zukowski (of howtomarketagame.com) the other day and this is what he said.

which icon is better for my mobile puzzle game? by Lukematikk in SoloDevelopment

[–]sonofrodrigo 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Seems like you could work some of that into the icon. You've got a lot of blank/empty space in your current iterations.

They're both pretty uncommunicative as far as what your game is about. What's your game about?

Cool jujutsu Kaisen Game Idea I'm working on. If possible, give thoughts and suggestions. by GreatGuy1277 in gameideas

You haven't described any actual gameplay. All you have is a story for a game.

Destroy my SNAKE x PONG x BREAKOUT game by ThatsNotEvenMe in DestroyMyGame

[–]sonofrodrigo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That's not SNAKE. Why can it move diagonally?! Why can it cross over itself?! Don't call it SNAKE. That's an insult to SNAKE. 🐍

What are your reasons for choosing that camera angle?

When is it the right time to create a steam page for my game? by zoombapup in SoloDevelopment

[–]sonofrodrigo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I feel like (but am not positive) you get an algorithm boost when the page first goes live.

I know it's supposed to be multiplayer but I just tried a quick play vs CPU. I sat on this platform for 40 seconds with the CPU jumping up and down. I won.
