None of my gamedev this year is conducive to a demo, so I won't have a booth at sage this year. BUT, holy heck. This year's lineup looks INCREDIBLE and Raoul and GameDawg killed it with the trailer! youtu.be/2dREVQosRjI?...

I added keyboard/gamepad support to #WordScoop! You can switch between the mouse and keyboard/gamepad by pressing the "accept" button on either of them. Hopefully this makes the game easier to play on certain devices!

Screenshot of WordScoop. "READ" is selected using an ice-cream-scoop shaped icon, which is visible when in Keyboard/Gamepad mode.

Screenshot of WordScoop. A splash screen has appeared over the game's HUD with an icon of some keyboard keys and a green video game controller, saying "Keyboard/Gamepad Mode Enabled!"

Screenshot of WordScoop. There is a splash screen visible over the HUD that has a crude drawing of a computer mouse and a message saying "Mouse Mode Enabled!"

The upcoming Anniversary Update for #WordScoop adds more customization options for the scoops. You can choose between Creamy, Smooth, and Flat textures, as well as two different color schemes: Variety and Plain. If you have a favorite flavor, you can also make every scoop the same color!

Screenshot of WordScoop. The scoops are flat and unshaded. The word "DELIS" is selected.

Screenshot of WordScoop. The scoops have a neutral color scheme that gradiates from light cream to chocolate brown.

Screenshot of WordScoop. Every scoop is a unified strawberry pink color.

Screenshot of WordScoop's Options menu. Unlike previous versions, the menu is divided into sections. Two new options are available that change the "Scoop Texture" and the "Scoop Flavor."

I've been working on a new patch for #WordScoop! This update adds a few highly-requested features, such as the ability to save and load your game. #IndieGame #GameDev #PuzzleGame #WordGame

Screenshot of WordScoop showing normal gameplay. A new green "save" button is highlighted on the menu in the bottom corner, where there used to be an empty space. The scoops also look smoother than they do in typical gameplay.

Screenshot of WordScoop with Gelato the Otter. A menu with a "Save Game?" header is visible, prompting the player that "Your previous save will be overwritten and you will be returned to the main menu." The options are "No" and "Yes."

Screenshot of the slightly-redesigned "Game Setup" screen from WordScoop with Gelato the Otter. This one replaces the previous "Play!" Button with both a "New Game!" and "Continue!" button, highlighting the new save feature.

Update for Dungeon Gals and its release

A bit of an update.
Dungeon Gals is now going to be SELF-PUBLISHED. I can't go into details, but the decision to split with the publisher was amicable, and there's no foul play at work here. It was a mutual decision that self-publishing would be best
for the game.

There are still plans for potential console releases in the future, but for now Dungeon Gals will be self-published and just for PC.
There will also be an update to the Steam demo coming soon, so please look forward to that!

However, this does place a lot more pressure on me in order to make sure Dungeon Gals is able to get the publicity and QA it needs in order to do well.

Word of mouth is VERY important, and is one of the best tools we have, so please try to share my DG posts and art far and wide! It will help tremendously.

Thank you so much for your patience.

Sincerely,
DoricDream

Apologies for the relative silence! I've hit a bit of a snag with Meander Forth's Chapter 3, so I'm jumping ahead for a bit. That is, WAY ahead! I'm working on the game's final chapter early, so it doesn't keep looming over the project and stressing me out. Then, I'll finish the middle!

I played Mother 1 and 2 for the first time in high school (still need to get to 3, lost my save file.) It's hard to convey how, like, it really IS that good. (S)NES games aren't supposed to make you cry, dammit!

Development on Chapter 3 is going smoothly! This stage revolves around the wall kick move, which lets you climb up any wall in the game (so long as it's not covered in spikes.) #MeanderForth #GameDev #IndieGame #WallJump #WallSlide
