I've add new tutorial entries to #Archrebel, for the new mechanics, and I've grouped them by type. There's currently about 40 entries made of 120+ videos. This video showcases some of them. All of them are voiced. #gamedev #indiegamedev

Dear tactics players. I'm still fixing bugs and improving the experience on #Archrebel's upcoming Steam demo, which will be a small full mini-game (4-6h of content). I'll let you guys know the release date as soon I feel the game is solid for playing. #gamedev #indiegamedev

Hello @kriegsfront.bsky.social and thanks for hosting this week's #TurnBasedThursday! 🍻 I consider #Archrebel a reincarnation of and a follow-up to two classics: Rebelstar and Laser Squad, even though it's influenced by other Gollop titles as well. #gamedev #indiegamedev

My wife keeps testing #Archrebel's second demo, playing it on the TV through a mini PC. Thanks to her, I've nailed down more than 100 bugs over the 60 days. And, another bug was discovered in this screenie; the minimap is not being loaded correctly. Sighs... #gamedev #Indiegamedev

Thx for Hosting!🥳 One week ago I released #ruinsOfCalaworm to the public. It is based on an early 90s obscure German cult game, think "Puzzle Game with Emergent Backstabbing" (a.k.a. #roguelike DNA): no builds, no ranged combat, just You and the Dungeon, bumping into Witches and Eldritch Horrors.

Doors no longer keep you safe in #Archrebel. The AI now can tear through doors that get in their way. I'm not pleased with the SFX, and the effects of the door's destruction will be reworked. "You can run, but hiding is no longer an option..." #gamedev #indiegamedev

The most neglected feature from watching ppl playing #Archrebel is the use of the energy shields, which is also one of the most powerful defensive mechanisms you can use. The energy shield halves incoming damage and protects units from critical hits. Don't forget them! #gamedev #indiegamedev
