BROKENCIGS - The Hilltop Funeral now in Early Access!

A HUGE new update is now live for The Hilltop Funeral!

This update addresses physics instability and a punishing learning curve, on top of redesign for the first 3 levels.

Whether you are a returning veteran or a new player, we invite you to take up the coffin once more!
#indiegamedev #gamedev

Team up with a friend to deliver the coffin in THE HILLTOP FUNERAL. Just try not to crash too much on the way there.

You can check it out at Indie Dev Night on Feb 19, 6-10 pm at @OS_NewYorkCity. Developed by @inkression.bsky.social.

Apologies for the wrong tag!!! Thanks for pointing that out

The Future of These Game Developers Rests on a Visa Application A small indie group from New York, a mixture of creatives from China and the United States, need the U.S. government to believe they should stay here.

Thanks a bunch @patrickklepek.bsky.social and
@remapradio.bsky.social for the interview and feature!
We'll keep on hustling until we find ourselves on the right path. 💪
