[Alex Anokhin @Anokcraft]

Hi, I'm Alex 👋 solo dev, building two things:
🎮 Climb & Punishment - pixel-art roguelite, defend a wall, every climber you drop becomes a rock for the next one
🎸 ChordSonic - learn any song: chords, key, tempo, stems and MIDI, with a play-along timeline
Sharing it all here - numbers, fails, what works. Say hi 🤝

@OddlifeAlive procedural that still feels hand-made is the hard part. are you varying body parts or how they move?

[Alex Anokhin @Anokcraft]

It's #ScreenshotSaturday - drop a screenshot of what you're making. Games, art, apps, anything.
I'll follow everyone who shares and repost a few favorites. Follow each other in the replies too.

@CXU_bvthm do the party leader effects change how exploring plays, or mostly stats?

[Alex Anokhin @Anokcraft]

@borkbytedev 0.3 ms is fine for a few hero bodies, and sleeping the insides until they're exposed sounds like the right call. curious to see the stress test

@benjamin_c15838 the trick is making the dusty tile just odd enough that people try it

[Alex Anokhin @Anokcraft]

He is not lost. He is sweeping. Walk over a dusty floor tile 4 times and a ladder opens to a secret room under the wall. #indiedev #gamedev #pixelart #roguelike

@rebootdude translating the curator invites is a smart touch, hadn't thought of that. thanks for all the tips

Steam demo diary, day 8: approved. 6 business days, no blocking issues. The release button is mine now - the demo goes live in a day or two, a few last changes first. When you got your first Steam approval, did you release right away or wait for a good day?

@Monored_Studio so staying calm is actually a skill in it. good luck with THROB

[Alex Anokhin @Anokcraft]

It's #FollowFriday - devs, artists, writers, musicians, anyone making something: say hi and drop what you're working on.
I'll follow everyone who replies. Follow each other in the replies too - let's grow together.

@maxkalashnikoff ha, same. music tools don't pay like the boring stuff, but they're way more fun to build. and I really like the idea of ear training in a fairy tale world

Mine - one rock, five climbers, x5 combo. Climb & Punishment: https://t.co/jGdJBP3lZf

@Micest3r @PigeonsMustDie loool🤣

[Alex Anokhin @Anokcraft]

@chertobook fighting your friends' builds is a good hook for an autobattler. followed

[Alex Anokhin @Anokcraft]

@UtteranceGame Lovecraftian Western plus a word deckbuilder is a combo I haven't seen before. followed, Rich

[Alex Anokhin @Anokcraft]

@Micest3r @PigeonsMustDie is in this same thread making a whole game about fighting pigeons. you two should talk

[Alex Anokhin @Anokcraft]

@Monored_Studio the more you panic the faster it gets - nasty loop. is the BPM from a real heart sensor or an in-game meter?

[Alex Anokhin @Anokcraft]

@maxkalashnikoff ear training is close to home - I make a chord finder on the side (ChordSonic). followed

[Alex Anokhin @Anokcraft]

@Kedeodev thanks - followed, good luck with the AI SaaS

[Alex Anokhin @Anokcraft]

@rebootdude curator connect timed with the demo going live is a good tip, thanks. noted for ours

[Alex Anokhin @Anokcraft]

@cartier_ko45320 good idea - dust that thins out with each pass would hint at it without a tutorial. noting that one

@Youkoulailay sorting ducks by species in first person was not on my bingo card today. followed
