now you can see your partner throughout the game in #CrinchureCollector! this won't change on vibes mode (because your partner is just fine!) but you can expect some...degradation in the other modes...

FINALLY - AN UPDATE! If you've played, you know a Create-a-Crinchure screen is exactly what #CrinchureCollector needed!

next update: Showing you your partner all the time, so you can watch them doing great!

Will try to get some posts of the newer features up tomorrow!

On December 20th of last year, I decided to make a silly little game as a less-cynical response to some recent gacha games I'd played (particularly, one about cards).

After 287 days, we're only 10 days away from the demo release date!

I think Silksong is one of my favorite games ever.

Controversial take: Silksong good

This is a really genius idea!

As for a mechanic...what about a black hole that sucks things in and eats them?

Ahhh yes… the never ending polishing that barely improves anything for the end game. I guess I’m not the only #gamedev struggling with that feeling πŸ˜…. What’s your loop polishing like?

I wish I had a solution - this phase is so critical to make something good but it's suffering for me...

The best I've done is set a goal of things I'll polish before sharing a build with someone - sometimes I get stuck working on things that don't really matter!

Well there aren't overall ratings for #GMTK gamejam anymore but after averaging all our ratings we ended up in the 2000s'ish out of 9k so really happy with our progress compared to our middling showing last year!

Now back to work on Crinchure Collector for Next Fest!

This game was more life-changing than I can fit in this box but I am forever grateful for the experience! Thank you from the bottom of my heart!

It was functional in time!! It's basically impossible to lose other than getting soft-locked but hey - that's jam, baby!

It wouldn't be a #GameJam if I wasn't freaking out that the game won't be functional in time 😭

Consider working on a visual novel! Engines like RenPy are perfect for this and a 2d artist/writer should be able to make a complete experience there!

It's been about a year since I did a game jam and I'm having the best time!
