@everfluxgames @ArcWillow09 Ha! Can I hire you as my animator?

[DESIGNATION: Jump Trooper -Connection Game Studio @CGS_indie]

@KyleThompsonDev @ArcWillow09 That bounce Jump mechanic is slick AF!

@paper_rogue Pretty good mockup!

10 bodies. 4 checkpoints. If you run out of bodies you restart the entire game.

Who thinks they can complete my game on they're first run?

No more screwing around. I want to make a game. So I'm setting some deadlines.

1. Steam store page goes live April 20th
2. I complete my full pitch deck by June 1st
3. Kickstarter campaign launches July 6th

Let's see if I can meet some self set deadlines! #indiegame #gamedev

Decided to update my banner and display name to better represent my game rather than my studio... Anyone else debate what's the best way to portray yourself and your game here on X?

@winterapple_dev We'll get there!

Any #speedrun #streamers or #gamers out there looking for the next #indiegame to push the limits on? I want my game "DESIGNATION: Jump Trooper" to allow for fun speed running opportunities similar to ALTF4 does. Any input on what makes for a great perma-death, 3d platformer?

[DESIGNATION: Jump Trooper -Connection Game Studio @CGS_indie]

What part of #indiegame development do you prioritize first?

For my current game I did a bunch of brainstorming in a notepad and then decided to tackle the blueprinting/game mechanics first.

What did all you other #gamedev do?

@SpringDingGames Is this just an example section of the environment, or does the whole environment work as floating islands? It looks great on that blue sky backdrop

[DESIGNATION: Jump Trooper -Connection Game Studio @CGS_indie]

@IndieGameJoe Such a unique concept. Weirdly kinda reminds me games similar to tickets please

[DESIGNATION: Jump Trooper -Connection Game Studio @CGS_indie]

@sensational965 I'm very early in my project, but I think the most rewarding so far has been when I successfully create a game mechanic that works the way I was envisioning. I feel like Einstein when that clicks lol

[DESIGNATION: Jump Trooper -Connection Game Studio @CGS_indie]

@TheIndieManiac @adredev Out of curiosity. With a post like this, what's the ideal response? Are you seeking screenshots, videos, trailers, or just descriptions? (Or all the above)

[DESIGNATION: Jump Trooper -Connection Game Studio @CGS_indie]

@bufuakgames This looks like a hilarious hoot to play! Such an ambitious project! Keep going!

[DESIGNATION: Jump Trooper -Connection Game Studio @CGS_indie]

@countlessn1ghts I feel like that's just a testament to the fact that your game is a great game! What is your rating?

[DESIGNATION: Jump Trooper -Connection Game Studio @CGS_indie]

@VistaLargaGames Yeah that's definitely a long damn time to devote to a single project for sure. I told myself when I started this game that I just wanted 3-5 hours of solid gameplay for players in the hopes that I could do it in under 1 year.

[DESIGNATION: Jump Trooper -Connection Game Studio @CGS_indie]

Lately I feel like I need to scale back my game and just get it released on steam since it's my first one. What are other people's thoughts on this?
