POPAPOM on Steam
A fast-paced action platformer roguelite with frantic combat, hundreds of modifying items, and dangerously charismatic monsters in the best arcade arena style. It’s time to make a POPAPOM!

General gamedev update: I want to challenge myself to feel more comfortable using 3D tools! I've been working on this kindergarten game thing and I'm quickly finding the limits of the 2.D system I've currently got set up. I decided it's time to stop avoiding Blender so much. 😆

Io and Arkane under cuts, that's so freakin' sad, I actually have no words on that. These we're two of the studios that I always dreamt to be a part of. This industry is literally a machine that kills passion.

Corporate Greed is not only destroying the world, Is destorying our Passion, our Art, our Dreams. I dread the vision of a future on a climatic unstable planet unable to engage in art or create... There are solutions, but for that we need to organize. And we are getting late for that too.
