-Neat Games (A new solo indie dev)

• This game was meant to be very small, but I ended up having a lot of extra time to work on it haha.
• 100% DONE (The game was released on 2020/12/17)  - I will update if bugs are found, but other than that done!
• Made with UNITY!
• STORY:
  • This world is suddenly attacked by nano-bots that come together and take the form of electric floating jellyfish like creatures.
  • CAT's home is destroyed by these creatures.
  • The nano-jellies attack themselves to other creatures and take over their bodies like a virus.
  • CAT must leave his home and fight these creatures to find out how to stop this techno-virus from spreading any farther!
• Features:
  • 4+ hours of game time.
  • 62 Levels (Normal levels, Random Dungeons, Boss fights.)
  • 10 Steam Achievements.
  • Full Controller support.  Enjoy an 80's retro feel with a controller!

• GOAL:
  • Make a game in 1 year.
  • Be simple enough for my elementary students to play, but levels do get more challenging. (easy to learn hard to master?)
  • Upload to Steam! My first commercial game!

What do you all this of this DEVLOG video style?  I definitely need to improve my speaking abilities... haha.

• Game's tentative title is:  CAT PROTECTS THE FOREST
  • I think it might change because later levels go into caves and a volcano... perhaps just:  CAT PROTECTS or CAT PROTECTS THE WORLD
• Besides the levels I'm currently working on.  What should I talk about in the next Devlog?

Today's devlog I talk about my parallax backgrounds and tile-map decorations!

• I'm super satisfied I finally learn how to do vertical + horizontal parallax nicely.
• I love to make make some level decorations that react to the player.
• Also I'm trying to play more indie games instead of just making them.  
  • Watch my first blind play-through of Stardew Valley here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ozTtGjpQ_iY 
  • I think I gotta play more games to make better games haha.

*Please subscribe to my YouTube.   I'm trying to grow it more hehe.*
