Today I'm e-mailing all my wishlisters about the demo. The option is available for 14 days after demo release, and I've spent the time making sure everything is running smoothly. Really anxious, because these are the people I really want to have a good experience 😅 Wish me luck! #indiegame #gamedev

Spent two hours on a stream yesterday watching a demo playthrough and discussing the game design and development. Had a lot of fun, and the slow pace also revealed some minor bugs and improvements. Today I get to code 🤩 #indiegame #gamedev

Screenshot form my task board showing 4 new bugs and 3 improvement features.

Folks, I need more reviews. So far, the demo reception has been positive and 3 people have reviewed already ❤️ It takes ~1h to complete the demo, so if you've got one and would like to help a fellow indie dev out: Go play. It's free! store.steampowered.com/app/4442650/... #indiegame #gamedev

Ok, I got some initial data from the demo. I'm so glad I spend time setting up the Steam Stats to track this stuff. The 🟩 line shows the % of players that reached certain milestones. The 🟥 line shows the average playtime at each milstone. What do you see? #indiegame #gamedev

Doing some last minute tweaks. It's a bit more risky changing stuff this close to demo release, since I can't really have anyone playtest it before release. Self-testing like crazy and hope it's enough. Build 0.3.022 coming up. Will probably be the actual release build #indiegame #gamedev

I officially started work on the full game™ today. Sure, I'm just fixing a few bugs, but they're bug that wont actually affect demo playthroughs. That's because while they occur in a demo-available interface, the defective scenario is strictly full-game. Yay! #indiegame #gamedev

Releasing a demo of a game you've been working on for 2 years is incredibly nerve wracking. I'm afraid it's gonna completely break. That people will find it boring. That people will hate it. That it's not enough. Luckily, I'm so busy that I have no time to stop and think it. #gamedev #indiegame

I’ve realised that my game stands out among similar games by a feature it intentionally doesn’t have: undo. In Mindbreak decisions are permanent and you’ll have to live with your choices or find a way to undo them yourself. #screenshotsaturday #gamedev #indiegame

I really miss actual gamedev. It’s been months of marketing and Steam stuff. Whenever I get to open Unity or write some code it’s for some small fix or tweak. I want to implement a really bad mechanic and remove it again. Make something wierd and throw it out. You know, gamedev #indiegame #gamedev

I discovered a rather annoying bug in my currently live (to testers only) build. I fixed it quickly, but I can’t deploy, since I don’t want to interfere with the ongoing Steam review. Come on, Valve. Let’s get it done 🤞🏻 #indiegame #gamedev

I actually have a specific date in mind for demo release now. I need to get Mindbreak through Steam review before it can be set in stone though. Stay tuned. Can't believe I'm here 😳 #indiegame #gamedev #indiegame

Over the summer I gradually felt my focus shifting more and more from the demo towards the full game. With the demo now out for Valve review, it's time to start the work. Exciting and scary at the same time #indiegame #indiegamedev #gamedev #solodev

Completed a bucket list item by cycling up one of the most legendary climbs in the world: the Alpe d’Huez and its 21 hairpin bends. Been dreaming of this for years. I almost died from the effort 😅, but it was worth all the sweat.

If anyone needs me I’ll spend the next three weeks with the family, relaxing, drinking wine and cycling in the French alps 🇫🇷🍷🚴⛰️. Fully recharging my #gamedev batteries before the Mindbreak demo release coming up when I get back. Have a great summer everyone ☀️

I've been tinkering with the cinematic intro for months. Time to show it here. This is the first thing the player sees when starting a new game. I'm trying to start the story and give the player a "why". Let's me know what you think. Sound: On 🔊 #indiegame #gamedev #sologamedev s.team/a/3470490

I'm at build 19, and I can now say: THE DEMO IS DONE! Sure, there'll be more fixes and improvements, but it's in a state now that I could actually release. It'll go live sometime after summer. #indiegame #gamedev #sologamedev

I'm implementing CloudSave today, syncing save/preferences data between devices. The setup in Steam is simple enough, so it's mostly setting up the file structure and making sure that my SaveLoadManager is up to the task. Sounds boring, but I'm actually having fun with this one 🤩 #indiegame #gamedev
