Sklime is now available on PlayStation®5 consoles! To celebrate I made a new video for my youtube channel: www.youtube.com/watch?v=IhDW...

I'm adding smash brothers style pvp to my foddian game.. I put together some highlights from the latest private test! Should I add another attack? #screenshotsaturday #gamedev

Zanthous @zanthous.bsky.social · 19/04/2025

More or less, but it's based around my game's unique character controller where you individually control the arms. I'll be adding visual effects to make things more sense soon

I made a super hard level for Sklime, watched people try to beat it over time, then made a Summoning Salt style video about it #screenshotsaturday www.youtube.com/watch?v=D329...

This is the HARDEST level ever made

Working on getting full replay support together lately, which of course will let you race a replay. Want to get this done fast so I can do multiplayer too #gamedev #screenshotsaturday

Sklime was recently added to cedb (Challenge Enthusiasts), an awesome site/community for tracking and ranking you based on achieving difficult challenges in games. If that sounds interesting to you, definitely check it out!

out of zones I can show (the last one is secret), so here is me playing the basketball minigame 2?! days to release?? #indiedev #gamedev

Zanthous @zanthous.bsky.social · 15/11/2024

The seventh zone in Sklime - The space themed area. This area has the most mechanics of all and is also the longest! 4 days to release! #indiedev #gamedev

091

Zanthous @zanthous.bsky.social · 15/11/2024

The sixth zone in Sklime - The icy region. This is my favorite part where you climb up a giant waterfall 5 days to release! (I'm not ready..) #indiedev #gamedev

080

Zanthous @zanthous.bsky.social · 13/11/2024

The fifth zone in Sklime - The floating islands region. Here is the first area with grabbable backgrounds, one of my favorite mechanics 6 days to release! #indiedev #gamedev

060

Zanthous @zanthous.bsky.social · 12/11/2024

The fourth zone in Sklime - a magical tower. Here you learn to wall jump, and there are platforms that flip if you stay on them too long 7 days to release! #indiedev #gamedev

0112

Zanthous @zanthous.bsky.social · 11/11/2024

The third zone in Sklime - the ruins area. The player has to coordinate both arms carefully to avoid falling off of spinning wheels with different behaviors 8 days to release! #indiedev #gamedev

070

Zanthous @zanthous.bsky.social · 10/11/2024

The second zone in Sklime - the caves area. It's a relatively plain area that lets the player acclimate to having two arms, and there are minigames to play. I picked decorations like glowing flowers, crystals, and fairies to make it feel more magical 9 days to release! #indiedev #screenshotsaturday

Zanthous @zanthous.bsky.social · 08/11/2024

Sklime is releasing in just a couple more weeks so I'll be showing off areas from the game - here's the first area where you only have one arm still #indiedev #gamedev

Zanthous @zanthous.bsky.social · 03/11/2024

If that day ever comes I would be so happy

Zanthous @zanthous.bsky.social · 02/11/2024

I'm still better at playing games than making them to be honest

Zanthous @zanthous.bsky.social · 02/11/2024

just realize bluesky cuts the fps of your video from 60 to 30, kind of lame but I might as well up the quality then

000

Zanthous @zanthous.bsky.social · 01/11/2024

I did a speedrun of Sklime's latest demo build, only lost a few seconds - release in just a few more weeks! #gamedev #indiedev

Zanthous @zanthous.bsky.social · 27/10/2024

thanks! it'll be releasing next month

Zanthous @zanthous.bsky.social · 27/10/2024

actually it's made to make you feel twice as miserable :D

120

Zanthous @zanthous.bsky.social · 27/10/2024

thank you. I tried adding alternative controls a few times but nothing worked out. I'm looking to get it on consoles too which will make a lot more sense, think super monkey ball or something where you need a controller to play

100

Zanthous @zanthous.bsky.social · 27/10/2024

It is controller only and I won't be adding alternate controls, they don't work for this game

100

Zanthous @zanthous.bsky.social · 27/10/2024

It's like getting over it, but I'm considering adding separate levels at some point since that might be fun. It's a really hard game though so you have to learn things slowly
