Thanks for checking it out! I hope to have a public alpha for what this project has turned into sometime within the next month.

Good actually! I just got back from a vacation so I'm back into working on this again. Admittedly a lot has changed from the initial idea, but I still think the end result will be in the same spirit. I've updated everything with a sprite sheet I've made and added tons of new features. The silence is mainly due to the fact that I'm pretty bad at documenting and showing off the work I do. In case you are wondering what it looks like now, here are some screenshots! Once I am satisfied enough to release a second private alpha release, I'll write another blogpost with an update on everything. Thank you for checking in!

I agree that the differences in quarry should encourage different strategies and builds, that's one of the various things I'm working on for the game. However, I am glad you like what is here now :)

Great game I loved it!

This game is a lot of fun, I like the simplicity of it and I think it works very well. It's challenging and I like that! 

This is very good. It took me a little to understand the core mechanic but I like it a lot! It's very cute and the little sound and particle effects add a lot to the game. Great work!

Thank you! It's actually two shaders, one is the dithering shader, and another is an edge detection shader. The second shader is what gives objects that solid black outline to make them pop.

I'm glad you liked it! As for the crash it wasn't actually one. That final sequence is meant to end with the game closing itself. I felt it was more impactful to have it suddenly close, so I'm sorry that the experience didn't come across like I intentioned.

Great game! I really liked this entry. I really felt like you did a good job on making each present thrown feel like it has some weight to it, great game.

I loved this! I've had my eye on this game from the discord server and it surpassed my expectations. I especially liked how the main characters face would deform more between the levels, really adds to the feeling. Overall great game!

This was a lot of fun! Reminds me of browser games I would play as a kid. I love how simple it is as well as the features for changing the palettes. Overall very short and sweet game!

This was great. Thank you for making art like this.

This was amazing. Great work.

I am very happy you enjoyed the game. First off that bug you experienced was something that kept happening when I was working on it but I didn't end up having the time to fix it, so I am sorry it impacted your gameplay. About the music though, there actually is some, its just admittedly very quiet, if you want go back and turn up your volume to have a listen. Thank you for playing I am very happy you enjoyed it!

I am happy to hear that you liked it!

I'm very happy you liked it! About the more levels, since I'm not sure what I want to work on next for a game I was thinking it could be a good start to work on thks project some more, so maybe there will more levels in the future. I wouldn't count on it though.

Thank you i'm glad you liked it. Sadly the delay is an important part of it but I agree I could have done better to work around it.

Thank you very much, I tried my best to make it clear how everything worked without saying anything so I am happy it came across well. There also was some music but I admittedly made it really quiet and because of that basically imposssible to hear, its nothing remarkable but if you want go back and turn up the volume. I am happy you enjoyed it though!

Thank you very much, I am very happy to hear you liked it.

This was an awesome game! One of my favorites ive played here. I have no complaints it was a lot of fun. Great job!

Thank you very much, I am really happy you liked how I introduced new mechanics!

Thank you! That is also a really good suggestion, I didn't really think about how comfortable it would be for your hand to press all of those buttons at once.

Thank you! I am really happy you liked it.

I liked this one quite a bit, it felt super good to jump from platform to platform though I did find it a little frustrating dying over and over on some levels. Overall I liked it.

I thought this was fun, I liked the art and the sound of it and it was fun when the rats would burst from the crates. But the lack of checkpoints and the slow unskippable dialogue made me not want to continue further after dying. Overall I liked it.

A cute game, I liked it a lot. I didn't think it was super hard but it was fun and I thought the muffled voice for the character was fun as well. Good job!

Thank you very much, I am very glad you liked it

I liked this one a lot. Mainly the atmosphere which felt creepy and alone. I was thinking the entire time about what was fake or real and it unnerved me reading a few of the messages. Felt a little slow waiting for each message but it did not feel tedious. Overall I liked it.

Thank you! I was worried that it wasn't going to be close enough for the theme so I am happy to hear that you think it does fit well.

Thank you very much!

Once I understood what the theme was by reading a little bit about complex numbers this started to make a lot more sense. You did a really good job with this, it feels super good to teleport and shoot. The music is really good and the screen effects make it feel very intense. I love the art for it, its simple but really effective. I also love how your rate of fire is just how fast you can click, it makes it feel super intense. Overall a fantastic game!

I really liked the graphics on this, it was a pretty game that felt good to control. My only real problem is the lack of some sound effects when hitting enemies. It just felt kind of hollow when hitting them, I totally get it for the fake enemies since they arent real. But seeing the slime explode with no sound was a big weird. If there was sound but for some reason I could not hear it than that could also be an issue. Over all I liked it a lot!
