I found that adding the tag "Lovecraftian", which my game has themes of, boosts views on youtube videos as well. I think people really want to see more of that.

The old wind tunnels. Used during the great war, now a relic of the past and re-purposed for racing. Tight turns, gusts of wind from the ventilation fans, Nova pylon traps meant to delay or disable chasing enemies. #TravellingSpacer #Amiga #AtariST #Gamedev #IndieDev #Godot #16-bit #solodev #Atari

The desert world of Toril. The tracks are wide enough to favour speed over handling. Perfect for a mercenary combat pilot and a combat ship like the berserker class. Just add plasma shield or ship repair and you're golden. #TravellingSpacer #Amiga #AtariST #Gamedev #IndieDev #Godot #16-bit #solodev

Yes! Fizzle has a pet mechanic with three variables: Attention; Hunger; Tiredness. When content she will periodically bring you some rewards she finds along the way. The most significant is CDs from old earth. Our game comes with over 30 unique soundtracks, and you can listen to them in the Jukebox.

I don't know what it says about me that the first thing I add to the new track of Planet 8 is a fishing hole. Haha. Guess we can go back to that after the race is over and catch some fish for Fizzle the cat! #TravellingSpacer #Amiga #AtariST #Gamedev #IndieDev #Godot #16-bit #solodev

Meet the BSS Discovery. Not a racer or a combat vessel, but a research vessel. With four resistance slots, pair it with an engineer class, and just glide through the lava like it's no one's business. Loadout = everything #TravellingSpacer #Amiga #AtariST #Gamedev #IndieDev #Godot #16-bit #solodev

This might be one of my favourite ships if I'm being honest. It's one you get through progress, rather than buying it from the space port, but for combat pilots it's an absolute titan. #TravellingSpacer #Amiga #AtariST #Gamedev #IndieDev #Godot #16-bit #soloDev

In the process of optimising for the A51 phone (and it's ilk). But it's hard not to just stop and play a bit. This level is all about learning how to control a Newtonian-lite physics engine going at a million km an hour #TravellingSpacer #Amiga #AtariST #Gamedev #IndieDev #Godot #16-bit #solodev

I hope you're not claustrophobic, because the scrapyard droids love their tight corridors. That's okay though. Pick one of the three combat pilot classes and a combat ship and blast your way through. #ScreenshotSaturday #Amiga #AtariST #Gamedev #IndieDev #TravellingSpacer #MSX #16bit

The Space Plaza is one of my favourite levels. Attempting five laps at "Admiral" difficulty can bring you over 90k in profits. But... be careful. Without the plasma shield, those turrets will obliterate your ship's hull. #TravellingSpacer #Amiga #AtariST #Gamedev #IndieDev #Godot #16-bit
