BETA ANNOUNCEMENT
Remember this post?
Probably not. But, pretending you were aware of its existence in this topic with 21 posts (and now 22), there are some things I must say.
- It’s been 3 months since I posted here,
- It’s been 4 months since I’ve updated UR or Squarehead, and
- That post was a lie.
Well, what is the point in saying that? “Yeah kerga, we know, blah blah blah.” What I’d like to say is that the course of these two games will change dramatically. Oh, uh, shoot. Just ignore the fact that the title of this post is also a lie… uh…
2 BETA ANNOUNCEMENTS
That’s better.
Firstly, Untitled Roguelike will be put in a new folder called “Pending”. Shoot. I’ve always wanted to make a roguelike (or roguelite, same thing), but things just aren’t working out, due to (I believe) the way hopscotch’s cloning system is built. The game’s latest drafts (located, ironically, in my drafts) will easily crash only a few waves in; sometimes even before wave 10! I find this very discouraging, paired with the fact that my games are getting little interest. But! I do have some ideas for where the game could go, and I certainly don’t want to throw the game away. I’d also love some help and ideas from you guys, so don’t hesitate to give feedback (seriously, don’t. I’m really craving it at the moment).
Secondly, Squarehead is not going to happen the way I wanted it to. I just want to get a game out there, and I also feel like the direction I wanted the game to go in will end up being like UR. So, I’m shrinking the scope of Squarehead. I currently have 25 tasks on my to-do list, and the list is sure to grow, but it is much shorter than what it would have been. I just feel like I want to be proud of something than wait longer just to be a little prouder.
And that’s it! This is a very large announcement (in my eyes), and I can’t wait to see where my betas go from here.

I’ve just been hit with the stroke of a genius-
What do you guys think of a Roguelike similar to ur that is more heavily based on story where you run from zombies and bosses with unique attack patterns that relies heavily on unique, groundbreaking mechanics with one unique twist- you can’t fight back?!?!
Tell me what you think!
Also, I’ve been thinking of a change to make for Squarehead. I’ve been thinking, and I believe what’s best for the game is to not go in a linear path. I will still adapt the Inkwell Isles (or the Pattern Peninsulas, in this game), but unlike Cuphead, you can defeat bosses in any order you like, only have to defeat a fraction of them to progress to the next isle, and can go back to the last isle. Although this kind of game design may increase the scope of the game (which I just shrunk last post), I feel like this is the right direction to take the game.
Thoughts or constructive criticism? Say it!
FTM_GG (more than 3/4 of you guys want to be tagged according to the poll, so here it is! Either way, it was made in the first place for dev updates. Read the fine print! /j)

P.S.
If you’ve been wondering why I haven’t uploaded a game for 5 months, just know I’ve been working in the shadows (;

What if I did April fools sixteen days late? Surely I wouldn’t!
Penguin Kil.ler is a terrible game that makes me regret those things I did in the past, and what I am currently doing! Make sure the penguins get deaded, or get deaded yourself!
On a more serious note, I asked one of my friends for a game idea, and he said “make a game where you ki.ll penguins.” So here it is.
