Explosive barrels, also I finally clocked how fucked up enemy sizes are. I've been rescaling a lot of them. #indiegame #indiedev #Metroidvania #Boomershooter

Rewatched this one cause fuck it. My opinion sure haven't changed that it's a fascinating mess with pieces of a interesting film. Should prolly watch the work print that's on my copy of this.

Tapeface (2024) Pretty effective little movie. If a slasher movie in the found footage style sound appealing to you, give it a shot, it's on YouTube.

It's not October if I don't play some Blood.

Dash is gonna be purely for traversal and not something for the core combat loop(if that make any sense). Kinda wanted to scrap it for like a hover or something but I just wanna keep pushing forward man. #indiedev #indiegame #Metroidvania #Boomershooter

Marathoned these with friends. Spookies is infamously a mess but a entertaining one. Hauntedween is endearing schlock that mix slashers and frat boy comedy and is surprisingly earnest about it. The Child (1997) is a pretty odd Halloween movie with zombies wearing costumes.

Changed the weapon switch code to be more like Doom than Half-Life so that things are more instant instead of cycling through guns that you may have not unlocked yet. Such a "Dude trust me" but dude trust me. #indiegame #indiedev #Metroidvania #Boomershooter #MadeWithGodot

The weapons so far. Gonna keep the "BFG" a secret. Also gonna redesign the rocket launcher since I added lore to bio missiles.

October time so time for my yearly thread of horror movies that I watched during the month. Kicked things off with Bakterion(1983) and I liked it. First half is a giallo and the second half is a monster movie, neat.

Added crust to it to keep it consistent with my stanky art style of course.

Played and reviewed BRAZILIAN DRUG DEALER BEFORE 4: DEMONS FROM THE PORTAL TO HELL I OPENED ARE STILL IN THE FAVELA AND NOW I HAVE TO SAVE MAMADAS FROM RONALDO. Honestly, half the appeal is seeing Joeveno improving as a level designer overtime. Pretty humbling to experience.

While I'm at it, I love how there's no enemies other than the last few Metroids during the final stretch of the game, implying that they wiped out the fauna around that area. Adds more stakes to their extermination. IMO, it makes the bit when you spared the baby Metroid even more impactful.

Since newgens are discovering that Metroid 2 is a perfectly playable game actually, it reminds me how much I like this piece of environmental storytelling. Did the Metroids recognized the ice beams is their weakness so they tried to destroy it? How intelligent are they? So many questions...
