After "winning" the biggest game jam ever, our game 🕛11:59🕛 has been added to dozens of people's #gmtk #gamejam 2026 itch collections! We were so honored by this that we made our own favorites collection: itch.io/c/8014318 (Max definitely played the most games out of the 3 of us) #indiegame #gamedev

Thanks for 7th in Creativity! We never imagined we'd get this far! Thank you to Mark and everyone who rated us! Somehow, several games by people I look up to on this website did worse than ours, so I gotta repost those now, check 'em out! max-waldman.itch.io/1159 #indiegame #gamedev #gmtk #gamejam

Before the final results drop, I wanna say that I'm very proud of how far our team has come and thankful to everyone who's played our game and enjoyed it! I'm honored that we could make you "feel seen" and that we "triggered your ptsd"! ❤️

Not all 70 games were posted online publicly and some were released on other sites, but most of them can be played on my itch page at coolbobgames.itch.io. I hope the four years were worth it and that it shows how much I've improved!

2026 marks the end of a challenge I started in 2022! 🎉 To get good at gamedev, I challenged myself to release one game every week of 2022, month of 2023, season of 2024, and to make one year-long project for 2025. I fell a bit behind mid-2023 so I'm still making that last game! #indiegame #gamedev

I was reusing the code for the switches in the Frog Escape games today and noticed that something was being called weirdly... Then I remembered that was the first Unity script I ever wrote! Maybe you'll see those switches again soon... #indiegame #gamedev #fortygames

If I don't feel like posting updates on here, it's because development is going poorly. However, if I haven't had time to post updates on here, it's because development is going well. #indiegame #gamedev #fortygames

I just released my game Fall Away for free on itch! It's a 2D platformer where you climb up a single tall level. It has unique abilities for you to master that I haven't seen in other platformers, like a silk trampoline and a teleporting kite. coolbobgames.itch.io/fall-away #indiegame #gamedev

Thank you! I think I had fun doing the level design for this game. I mostly drew a bunch of platforming on little post-its and then ordered them and remade them in-game. I combined certain platforms on different post-its to make them all seamlessly connect.

For gameplay reasons, the game is presented in a 4:3 aspect ratio. To fill the empty space on your computer, there are 10 beautiful collectable borders designed by @melody-sy.bsky.social! Try and find them all! #indiegame #gamedev

Here's one last video of my game Fall Away, releasing soon! This is layer 7 of 8, where you have every key ability in the game! The abilities are all very unique and powerful but tricky to wrap your mind around. The rest of the game acts as practice for this final gauntlet... #indiegame #gamedev

I've been working on some TV screens for the fourth "layer" of Fall Away! There are eight layers in total. This layer has a new teleporting kite ability and a digital friend who helps you learn to use it! #gamedev #indiegame

My last post showed the second ability in my new game, Fall Away, and here's the third! It's a grappling hook sticky hand! It's really hard to use at first, but once you master the aiming, you can do crazy things with it! #indiegame #gamedev

All that was left to do in the end was make the promotional art, and also to decide which of the 4 potential names to use. Thanks for reading these retrospective devlogs! I hope they were interesting to you. -CoolBobGames coolbobgames.itch.io #indiegame
I added this sign for Copodile.I started making a logo for the game.The game's name kept changing until the last minute. "Private Playground" made it all the way to the main menu!An old version of the thumbnail on Itch. It has the sun in the corner and weird colors.
