Most of my new followers the past few months are bots. Is this platform working for anyone?

[Hardie Softworks | DevDave here! @HardieSoftworks]

big ups to @sixoneindie, who just put out their Fall 2024 showcase. There are some awesome looking games! Let me just check out their Steam sale page and...wait, is that Kiopioke from the Spring 2024 showcase?

I was talking to a 20-something year old and he told me he likes to play an old obscure game. Then he asked me if I ever heard of Counter Strike.

@TomVsEverything Summer was busy for me as well. I released a game!

Thank you to everyone for their kind words. Kiopioke just reached the threshold for a Steam rating. What's even better is that it's currently at 100%!
Come see why, Steam link below.

This fav straightforward and the hook is subtle. It gives the player the freedom to attack the level at their own pace with their own style. The berries reset stamina so the elevation gain can be higher. Here's how I progress through the level.

Another favourite! These walls move quick when they get poked, so timing and execution are vital. It feels a little like a ping pong ball combined with a slingshot!

This fan favourite also happens to be one of mine. Springs bounce Kiopioke in a sort of organized chaos. Very satisfying.

@CodeRed_dev not a lot. fewer than 1000. Thankfully the reviews have been fire, including the press/streamer crowd that are counted by Steam.

[Hardie Softworks | DevDave here! @HardieSoftworks]

@CodeRed_dev It's agonizing being so close! I'm in the same boat:

Kiopioke is really close to 10 reviews on Steam. Help out a #solodev and leave a review!

Another favourite: There's a lot going on here. The launch has to be in the right direction, character movement in the air has to be precise, and aim has to be quick. When you nail it, it feels so fluid and rhythmic.

Now that Kiopioke is out, I wanted to share some of my personal favourite levels
The dash moves the synchro-platforms out of the way, but they return and the player needs to hold on and dodge them. Feels great!
