Another update to the playtest 🥰 Lot of bugs, few features, and a lot of text! Coming up next, continuation of the massive rewrite ❤️ Keys for the playtest still only on discord for now! discord.gg/GTHkMyB23g #indiegame #gamedev #playtest

Was supposed to be a little feature adding day, but I added fleeing from combat... It works! 🥰 But now I have to decide what happens when you don't stop a Cleric assaulting a crypt with the Holy Relic YOU gave him. And about a dozen more unavoidable fights you can now run from 🤣 #indiedev #gamedev

I love my dev tools ❤️ Flow Map of a case in Compromised Investigator, now with real playtest data laid on top and with previews of the events, and the arrows show how the runs split at each choice 🥰 Thicker the arrow, the more players went that way! #indiedev #gamedev #roguelite #narrativedesign

Rewriting continues! No longer just swapping a few words based on your character state. Fully custom event descriptions! Really need to sell the different world Day and Night creatures live in❤️ Taking ages, but I love writing, and it's worth the time spent 🥰 #indiedev #gamedev #narrativedesign

Massive shoutout to @support.bsky.team! 🥰 I had a minor breakdown and a rant about Bluesky's video encoding garbling my uploads. I take it all back! Filed a bug report, got extremely fast and genuinely helpful answers ❤️ And it was the fault of a Chrome update anyway😅 Celebratory un-garbled video!

Had an absolute blast watching @ulloriaqtechlei.bsky.social stream Compromised Investigator yesterday! 🥰 Very helpful for catching bugs live, and I had a lot of fun in the chat ❤️ VOD: www.twitch.tv/videos/28847... Obviously heavy spoilers, Ulloriaq almost 100%s the playtest during the 7h-stream 🤣

Compromised Investigator's first playtest is live! 🥰 Night one: 112 runs, 94 deaths, 3 survivals. As soon as the first Vampire Investigators were unlocked, David became the top cause of death (24%) 🤣 Join the Discord for the keys: discord.gg/GTHkMyB23g #screenshotsaturday #indiedev #pixelart

Had to create an alt account to test the videos to avoid spamming any more. The preview before posting shows the video working perfectly, yet after you post, bsky can turn everything imaginable to shit. Very cool. Turning the bitrate to a potato seemed to help a bit 🤣 Still far from perfect.

A rewriting day today, so nothing new to show off. Instead, here's one of the rarer transformations: this is what happens if you drink the contents of a Nectar pod of the Giant Plant.🥰 Sorry for multiple reposts. bsky is being unbelievably trash with videos😩 #gamedev #indiedev #pixelart #ドット絵

Adding telemetry to the game in preparation for the Steam playtest. Stats!!! 🥰 Obviously nothing about you or your device will be in anyway collected. And you can of course opt out even still. This is mainly to make the game better, but also for me to post NPC's K/D-ratios 🤣 #gamedev #indiedev

It was worse than that 🫠 The only previous way to become a Vampire was actually from combat with a Vampire thrall. You'd have to be attacked often enough with a Blood Drain attack to actually proc the Bitten affliction, yet you'd somehow have to survive the fight 🤣

While waiting for Steam approval, I'm adding new ways to become a Vampire 🥰 Was close to impossible to be bitten yet survive to become a full Vampire, and that was required to unlock Lucien. That's fine and all, but probably not the best for playtesting 😅 #gamedev #indiedev #pixelart #ドット絵

I've used my newly evolved pixel bending powers to build the tiniest of tutorials 🤣 No text or arrows. The things to click just shed little white pixels until you click them! Straight out of the jam game's pixel morph tech, that detour keeps paying off 🥰 #gamedev #screenshotsaturday

Compromised Anatomy got 2nd place in Judge's Choice in MicroJam!! 🥳 And now, back on the Compromised Investigator grind. The jam was a very good detour: the pixel morph system I built for it is coming to CI 🥰 #microjam #gamedev #indiedev #pixelart #ドット絵

Nothing in the engine works yet, so instead, I give more of the concepting 🥰 You touched some really bad magic and now your body is in flux and everything affects you. Get over the mountain to reach Windermere, before you become something else 😱 #microjam #gamedev #indiedev

Thanks! 🥰 Almost a love triangle. It's an Affliction you get from encountering a Vampire or a Werewolf, but earning their respect in someway and thus surviving the encounter. Tolerated Prey is still prey though... 🫠 Couldn't think of a better way to show it in an icon 🤣

CompromiseDev | Wishlist Compromised Investigator @compromisedev.bsky.social · 28/08/2026

Currently redrawing the Affliction and Ability -icons to try to unify the style. Have dreaded this for a while... 🫠 There's about a hundred of them, and drawing in 40x40px is still so damn hard 🤣 Every one of those still needs some polish... #redraw #pixelart #ドット絵

Enemy Inspection Mode Rework! 🥳 Shifting the whole screen felt cool at first but it got really distracting. And you couldn't fight with the inspection mode on. 🫠 Now it's just a smaller sidemenu that slides out to cover the combat sprite 🥰 #gamedev #indiedev #pixelart #ドット絵

Trying out adding even more movement to the #UI 🥰 The "Details Popup" now slides out next to what you clicked, instead of appearing in the middle of the screen. The Log now speeds past you, instead of just appearing in multiline chuncks 😅 #gamedev #indiedev #pixelart #ドット絵

Thanks! 🥰 The sounds are quite a bit less jarring when the music is on. I do like the buttons sounding clunky, but all of the sounds are luckily just sliders in Unity so can easily fiddle with the "tok" to make it more pleasant 😅

CompromiseDev | Wishlist Compromised Investigator @compromisedev.bsky.social · 21/08/2026

UI is now a bit more animated! 🥳 The text scrolls pixel by pixel instead of row by row. The slots actually scroll instead of the static slots just replacing their texts 🥰 Oh, and I'm having way too much fun playing with the sound design of the #UI 🤣 #indiedev #gamedev

3407

CompromiseDev | Wishlist Compromised Investigator @compromisedev.bsky.social · 21/08/2026

Absolutely fair point 👍 The only issue is that it'll want the same size of buttons in the SideMenu and that will create dead space when there's no need for scrolling if the buttons are too big 🫠 Made the buttons 1px bigger for now 😅 It's only 1px, but it's a 33% increase 🤣

Collection: now actually readable 🥳 Three columns: Endings, Events sorted by investigation, Enemies & Lore, plus your items and afflictions as actual inventory slots. "Details"-buttons included, so you can recheck what you're seen 🥰 #gamedev #indiegame #roguelike #indiedev

The Officers of the Compromise are almost Lovecraftian horrors 😅 As a completionist myself, I had to include it. There is also the "Collection"-tab in the Journal that tracks every event, ending, item, affliction and so on 🥰 I probably should build some structure into it... 🫠

CompromiseDev | Wishlist Compromised Investigator @compromisedev.bsky.social · 20/08/2026

A bit of bestiary polish 😊 It now keeps a battle record: times fought, wins, losses, damage traded. And when you've learned everything about someone, their portrait earns a checkmark 🥰 Current residents, various stages of studied 👀 #gamedev #indiedev #pixelart #ドット絵

Oops, Bad Talisman way too OP 🫠 Gives Bless and Unfortunate afflictions Bless: +1 to all stats Unfortunate: spawns events from a "MinorMishaps"-pool. Bonus stacks, so covering yourself in Talismans turns you into a beast 🤣 Will have to make MajorMishaps 🥰 #indiedev #gamedev #indiegame
