It's a great time to be a Metroid fan, but I'm not ready to buy a Switch 2 yet 💸

Since I now have a different biverted (what a time consuming mod!) Game Boy that serves my retro gaming needs, I’m using my original non-biverted one as a lofi-chiptune music player lol. I needed to add an audio amp tho. Featuring music by Beatscribe.

Going fine! Been updating the same game for a few years now and had some trouble getting a new project going… but I think it’s finally coming together!

Finally got my hands on my own copy of Metroid 2. Played this on my uncle's Gameboy when I was a wee lad. The creepy title screen was etched into my brain ever since.

In case you missed it, v1.44 is live! I've added a new background, and a few more puzzle-style achievements (one of my favourite features). #gamedev

The new enemy type can now chase the player while actively avoiding each other to prevent overlapping. They also run away when you're powered up. I think I'm gonna make them run away faster for comedic effect. #gamedev #gamemaker

hmmm I think there're some stability issues on some android devices. May have something to do with updating the engine. I'll be looking into it!

Basic movement test of the new enemy type. Added 2 additional still frames at each step so the character would hold the pose per step. #gamedev

Ehhh, new achievements for Sawblades somehow went live on GameCenter... but the app update is slated for release in 2 weeks. They'll be unattainable until then, sorry about that! (and especially sorry to the mate who spent 45mins trying to figure them out) 🙏

I'm making a game about avoiding humans and eating cakes. It's called Avoid Humans. Eat Cake. Been working on the visual feedback necessary to communicate the character's powered-up state to players. #screenshotsaturday #gamedev #gamemaker

ICYMI, v1.42 of A Slight Chance of Sawblades is live! I had fun rendering a raycasted sphere as the background. Reminds me very much of my schooling days learning computer graphics.
