Japanese Indie Dev / #Öoo / #ElecHead 『Öoo』 is Out Now:
Before full development of Öoo, I built a prototype to test whether bombs could push each other, stack on top of one another, and interact correctly. It looks simple, but implementing these kinds of "obvious" behaviors without using a physics engine was actually much harder than it seems.
Öoo × Cat Squeeze Collaboration Bundle is now available! To celebrate the launch of the adorable Sokoban puzzle game Cat Squeeze, we've put together a special bundle! If you love cute puzzle games, check it out! store.steampowered.com/bundle/79775
SuperSudokoid It genuinely feels like a Metroid game. ・New upgrades don't immediately tell you where to go ・The bosses are genuinely terrifying ・Tiny oddities get paid off later in the game ・In the worst case, you can brute-force things with hypothesis testing sudokupad.app/68ek598lr7
This is one of my favorite sections in the Order of the Sinking Star demo.
#dittori Without all the “this game is wild” comments, I probably would have judged it as just a really solid Sokoban puzzle game. It puts an incredible amount of trust in the player.
#minathehollower was amazing! With this much content and quality, how is it this affordable?!
Cerebral Puzzle Showcase is now live! Both Öoo and ElecHead are currently on sale! store.steampowered.com/app/2721890/...
I had a great time at BitSummit! My English still needs a lot of work, but I really enjoyed meeting and talking with everyone. Time to study more English!
Öoo will be playable at both the GameMaker booth and the Nintendo booth at BitSummit! I’ll be wandering around on the 22nd and 23rd wearing a gorilla hoodie 🦍 Also… I actually can’t speak English very well 😭 I’m doing my best with translation apps and translated posts lol
My favorite game of the year so far might be Flip 7. It really made me realize how fun a luck-based game can be. Honestly, I could totally see it becoming a classic card game like UNO.
Heart room (BEFORE). Hachinos said it looked like “kin〇ma,” so it was later changed to a heart. Anything considered crude is usually stopped by Hachinos.
Öoo has been nominated as a finalist for Best Gameplay at the BIG Festival, part of gamescom latam in Brazil! I’m really happy to see the game reaching Brazil!
GDC was awesome! My English is still terrible so it was a bit chaotic haha. But it really lit a fire in me to make more games. Thanks to everyone who met up with me! I’ll come back someday for that super crispy bacon.
