Unmatched vibes, yessss!

Appreciate that! I ain’t giving up 💪

>2 months after launch, I’m super proud of Baseless and it’s critically reviewing well, but just not getting many sales. :/ the few folks who play it love it! Hidden gem? Cult classic? 😅

I’m hoping to find a second wind in 2026 - hit me up if you want to help a solo dev out 🥰

Posting my Baseless game trailer here so I have something nice to pin! 🧣

Out now woooo: store.steampowered.com/app/1129260/...

Shares and wishlists very appreciated! 💛

@nocapsbb.bsky.social I just wanna make sure this tinytrucks-like game is on your radar 🫡

Thanks so much! It critically reviewed well, but it was a disappointingly weak launch tbh. :/ Hoping to find a second wind soon, but for now I’m just simmering

Man the vibe of your sfx feels so Downwellian, I’m lovin it!

👀👀👀 Baseless collab when?

Little games coming out in busy December include #Baseless, a physics-platformer in which you shoot to jump. It's #ShotgunCopMan meets 2D #MarioGalaxy.

My game, Baseless, sitting at the top spot on Steam’s “popular upcoming” list.

My baby, up in lights!

Thanks for the shout! 🫶

🧣 Baseless comes out tomorrow, December 4th! Warm up those thumbs :) #indiegame #gamedev @firstbreaklabs.bsky.social

Thanks a ton, makes sense! 💛Listened to an assortment of your recent discog tonight and it’s so rad how alive and intentional everything feels.

For my stuff, getting it to that level of dynamic rearrangement is a bigger lift than I have the patience/skill for, so the intro+loop+outro route it is! 😅

@kissakolme.bsky.social teach me your ways!

I'm looking for music advice on how to convert my game-ready loops (~50sec) into fully fledged tracks for a proper Baseless OST. Anybody got ideas/resources on that?

It definitely is the main thing I need to communicate. I’ll spend more time focusing clearly on that, thanks!

About to work on my final launch trailer, but here’s my Next Fest one 👀

Have you tried Noita, Downwell, Nuclear Throne?

I agree though, I love sinking my teeth into something where my progress is gated by my own mechanical skill.

I'd say there's many different kinds of skill - take Hades for example: mechanical skill goes hand in hand with the thinky *skill* of putting together powerful synergistic builds throughout a run.
The meta progression adds another dimension to this too, but imo that's more of a soft difficulty tuner

The way the camera gently lerps back from the shake after the climax - so nice! 😍

Oolala this looks great!
