    Can you share nerdy technical details about how you made it? Custom engine? Something like unity? Solo project or big team?

    When I was a kid I thought a lot about making games, but now that I’ve worked in software and spent hours being like “why the fuck does the font get bigger when I open the date picker?” I have a greater appreciation for how hard it can be.

      Absolutely!

      • Godot was amazing, such a perfect fit for a first game with moderate dev experience
      • I worked on this solo for about 3 years while working a full time job
      • lmao yes there many fiddly issues with the gui for sure

    $10.00! That’s far too much for this.

    Now, something reasonable, like $9.99…

    Just kidding, I just noticed you were one of the very rare people not playing the .99 game.

    This looks rad and I’m about to buy it.

      but isn’t that a bad idea? Steam has a “under 10 bucks” category. Doesn’t that mean that it won’t show up there?

    Looks great! What kinda difficulty would you say it is comparable to? I’ll try to play it after I’m done with black myth.

      Thanks so much! I went a bit softer than something like dark souls but still should still be a decent challenge <33
