too hard?
i've just added a count of lives and done an end-to-end run-through of all 16 levels and it took about 10 minutes and 22 attempts. (manic miner gave you 3 for 20 levels, and had you collecting more things, but, as noted, was more controllable. also, it's harder because the sprites are fatter so the margins are tighter)
one bug i want to squash before it's done and that's the way you can walk over a two-space gap at speed - the velocity thing means it's using fractional positions but the grid is strictly 8x8 and sometimes you're over it, by a fraction of a pixel, before it realises. (same problem means you can stand on a collapsing block and it doesn't collapse)

new itch bundle

For $5 to charity, I'll jump in, but there's so much stuff in there. Is any of it worth actually playing?
― Nhex, Saturday, 5 June 2021 22:54 (two years ago) link
i scrolled through the Linux compatible games and the things that jumped out were all repeats of things in the earlier bundle - minit, all cats are liquid, pikuniku. but minit is worth the $5 alone

Cosmic Express is really good. It's kind of like the "Tracks" pencil & paper game but with an ordering element.

cityglitch is a decently fun single-screen puzzler. bout to hit that point where i'm too dumb to solve the levels

good stuff!

thanks for the reminder that I own this bundle, need to dip into again.

not the bundle itself, but a twitter account that highlights indie games with a similar feel to a lot of things in the bundle

(mostly likns to his youtube channel)
he's recently, ahead of creator day on itch.io, done a rundown of 100 picks
― koogs, Tuesday, 30 November 2021 10:12 (two years ago) link
he seems to favour retro puzzle platformers, but i have no problem with that
― koogs, Tuesday, 30 November 2021 10:13 (two years ago) link
looks interesting. thanks.

i like that account and wish I still had the energy/drive/time to dive into that stuff

smaller games by the looks and little, if any, overlap. (i dont think i've actually downloaded anything from the ukraine bundle yet)
https://randombundlegame.com/ is already updated
― koogs, Monday, 4 July 2022 10:39 (one year ago) link
(having said there's no overlap, the first thing i clicked on i already owned and the second thing i clicked on i already owned twice!)
― koogs, Monday, 4 July 2022 11:59 (one year ago) link
There's a second abortion bundle too right?I laud the effort here but there's so much junk in these, they need to lead with the more popular titles in there so there's some attraction

VERY highly recommend checking out Hypnospace Outlaw!

Fans of Hypnospace Outlaw should check out steam right now.

Any thoughts on this one?
― Rabbity Gainsborough (Leee), Monday, 16 January 2023 18:24 (one year ago) link
Looks great. I own all but 2 of them and I still bought it. The only ones I think I've completed are the blackwell games and shivah, and they were very well done.
― adam t. (abanana), Tuesday, 17 January 2023 23:32 (one year ago) link
Similar boat; I've bought most of them in bundles, only played The Shivah though. That was good enough to give me years of faith in the developer.

Booted up Gemini Rue and I'm pretty sure I've finished that one too. I remember a late gate twist but not much else.
