The #Steam page for #HAFO is done (or very close!!!): store.steampowered.com/app/4105600/... . Ugh, I hate making these pages... Even worse, when recording, the little Quantum window was displayed so I had to put the logo in the upper-right...lol #gamedev #indiedev #indiegame #fightinggame

There'll be some tedium to get all the attacks done, but this will be a lot easier to setup for future moves, and I'll probably just use thumbnails for all the attacks instead of the silhouettes... #HAFO #gamedev #indiedev #indiegame www.hafo.horse

Nearing final build the #HAFO demo, and I realized when editing colors, sometimes you need to copy-and-paste colors, so I quickly implemented that. #gamedev #indiedev #indiegame www.hafo.horse

#screenshotsaturday Not the most elegant test, BUT it worked... Though...as cute as 16 player #HAFO is, maybe 4 is enough... Yea, similar to other things, maybe start small and if people like the game, THEN look into optimizing for more players... #gamedev #indiedev #indiegame www.hafo.horse

Having a hard time w/ #HAFO 's UI. I don't like the little thumbnails; however, this w/ text feels a bit muddled / hard to read in a 1v1 setting locally so now I'm torn...I'll keep playing around but def. hurting my confidence in it a bit now... #gamedev #indiedev #indiegame #screenshotsaturday

These are now officially the worst #Oreos I have ever had. Worse than Irish Cream, worse than Sour Patch Kids. Artificial fried flavoring, bad artificial oreo chocolate creme. Disgusting fake fried chicken after taste. Deep Fried is better than Chicken & Waffles but both are vile...

Updated #HAFO 's UI a bit with the demo coming. I think making the jockey name temporary (it fades away) and having all relevant info at the top makes it way less busier. #gamedev #indiedev #indiegame www.hafo.horse

I think I'm overthinking #HAFO's... Being able to do more than 1v1 is great, but should I do spectating? Here's a preview of that; it's a 1v1 race but one player is spectating. Actually, had an idea how to deal as I typed... #gamedev #indiedev #indiegame #HAFO www.hafo.horse

Tried a multi colored icing technique. Didn't turn out great but sort of worked. I think I placed the icing on the saraj wrap in the wrong direction+ mixing booze into the icing made it a bit too soft. But still tasty!
