I contributed an article to this! I did a writeup on the Y O U demo.

The other week I had a booth at an expo in Melbourne called Gamespond, showed off David Get Keen in person! Might share some pics from the event. This here is footage I captured from the big screen, which rotated between footage from all the games at the event.

I did a piece for this contest!! Was a good excuse to fire up the Paint Dot Net hehe Had quite a lot of fun with this one, these characters lend themselves well to exaggerated posing

There's a design problem I wanna try tackle before the full version of David Get Keen releases: For a time, I changed the way using the homing attack affected the player's momentum. In all public releases using the attack drops the player's speed to 0, but I changed it so the player *gains* speed

Have kinda been going in circles with the NPC dialogue in Keen for a while now. It's actually pretty tricky to manage. I've now resorted to using spreadsheets, and am making a lot more progress now haha

imo, the thing preventing adoption of Linux isn't software compatibility or anti-cheat or anything like that. It's having to install an operating system. People don't like installing operating systems. I think for Linux to take off, it has to be easily available pre-installed in off the shelf PCs.

We must be cautious to not let these corporations turn us into efficiency machines. The unexpected events and opportunities that occur while taking the long route are what make life worth living.

For context, that isn't a fake trailer its a STOLEN trailer. These scammers follow a template. They find a small indi game (released or not) steal the assets and video, edited it to remove logos & such. Then upload the videos unlisted on youtube on new or stolen accounts. bsky.app/profile/bmas...

Just played through this! It turned out pretty great, there's quite a lot of levels and got good variety. Hehe also got a bit of cameo art hidden in there if you can manage to find it 👀

I'll say, part of the reason Keen is taking so long is that the levels take forever to make. Each level is wholey unique, and it takes a while to come up with all the ideas and mechanics to get the most out of each location

In case you didn't see it, i dropped this image into the SAGE demo (it pops up if you quit the game from the menu) Basically, I'm not 100% sure if I can make it, but I'm going to see if I can finish Keen in 2026. Depends on how much life gets in the way #indiegame #indiedev #art #mspaint

Ah yea I wanted to thank all those folk who checked out my demo during SAGE, especially those who have been around since the early days. Honestly feels pretty weird and surreal seeing people enjoying this thing I've slapped together, especially after months of doubting and secondguessing.

This is the raw thumbnail I've currently got up on Steam for David Get Keen. I rolled it out very quietly, as I was incresingly growing unsatisfied with the old one. I think I did this around May. The art was from November 2023, a few months after SAGE of that year.

Here's the current David Get Keen trailer thats been up on Steam since the page launched last year. It's quite outdated now, but I figured it'd be good to get it available to view here for the time being.

I'm gonna start actually posting on this site!! !! ! I'll try post at least two things a week. I've been working on David Get Keen pretty non-stop since I last showed off the game back in 2023. I think I'm gonna try be a bit more transparent from here on out.
