Iโm finally releasing a new game! Order the Block Tower is a Tetris-like where your goal is to find the correct arrangement of rows of blocks with only the information of how many blocks are correct in each row.
@VincentLivings I guess it doesn't qualify as "upcoming" but this is a game called Everlife. In each level, you have to collect a star at the other end of the maze and return to the portal to beat it. Its basically... a rip off of your game. I even used an AI trick from Nikson XD.

Everlife: Chapter 2 will be 50% until the 28th! If you have played the first chapter and enjoyed it, now is a great time to get the 2nd chapter! (Or try the first beforehand)
#indiegame#indiedev#chapter2#everlife
And one more note, when it does enter production, I'm not giving a release frame until the chapter is nearly done. Giving one was a mistake with chapter 2.
I've started my first year of college and let me just say, it's a lot! I've barely had time to work on anything personal!
An optimization update is in the works for the time I do have. Besides a level file and some soundtracks, I haven't even started on chapter 3 yet :(
I actually just realized that some of the ceiling tiles (3x3) were sometimes using 8 DRAW CALLS! I'm optimizing those rn so hopefully it gives some minor improvement :)
After completion of optimizations in Murky Mansion, my quick tests predicted about a 10% reduction in GPU usage. Going to optimize Tsundere Terror and Game Grievance too :)

Tsundere Terror didn't really get much improvement at all from what I did so far and I had to put a cute little Band-Aid over the level (it messed up some collisions with the floor)
So, after some more so far what Iโm doing doesnโt seem to be making a massive difference, but it should still help with that โflickeringโ issue :)
I just did a test with a segment of the ballroom and it worked perfectly.
All I can say is, Iโll probably be able to get a HUGE optimization update out soon, at least I hope :)
