we tweaked both in the same round. but we upped the waves and enemies more and more to meet the expectations of playtesters

we increased the enemy wave frequency and removed some of the gates that slowed progress. also adding resource drops to defeated enemies sped up the build loop. So we opted for a bit of both

We actually found that because Dieselwake is combat focused that moving more towards roguelite mechanics and speeding up the build loop made it more fun. For us the power fantasy was more compelling than the management systems

I think it was because I used a new account. But my colleagues uploaded jams on new accounts no problem. The lack of transparency is the roughest part for devs (Not knowing why)

What's the verdict on our new water shader? Still need to add buoyancy to ships and forts #GameDev #IndieDev #MadeInUnity #Roguelike #Citybuilder

The towers in Dieselwake just went mobile! They have their own ships now which makes enemies way more threatening and interesting to fight! What should we add next? #gamedev #roguelite #indiedev #indiegame #madewithunity

Experimenting with little tug boats pulling around the enemy towers. What types of towers do you think we should add? #IndieDev #GameDev #CityBuilder #Roguelite

We made a game about building and battling floating fortresses in a flooded post apocalyptic world (big water world fans over here👀) It's available to download on Itch: cmtda.itch.io/dieselwake #indiedev #gamedev #indiegames #pitchyagame

Dropped our new prototype for DIESELWAKE on Itch. Your floating fortress lies in ruin, once a great behemoth of battle reduced to a raft held together by sheer desperation now floating adrift on the great endless ocean. Prototype link: cmtda.itch.io/dieselwake #indiegame #indiedev

In theory, birds eat worms, but not here. Pecking Order is a party game for up to 16 players where worms outsmart birds, birds hunt & the caught become hunters. Our new trailer launched today at @galaxiesshow.com and we're super proud of it! Wishlist on Steam. #PeckingOrder #partygame #indiegame

Hey👋 Making a game about building a floating fortress. Trying to decide on an art direction, which concept excites you the most and why? #IndieDev #gamedev #games #gameart #pitchyagame

Back in 2017 I composed some relaxing music for Orbu, an ARKit puzzler that projects a tiny zen garden into the world. The art direction and audio came together really nicely. Are you looking to add music and sound to your game? Get in touch: hello@chrismurrayaudio.com #gamedev #gameaudio
