Who needs more juice?

Pre-alpha playtesting for GadgetSmack was a huge success!

Next stop: a December beta with story, gadgets, scoring, boss fights & more polish across the board.

It’s happening…

I’m disappointed I can no longer support my Indie dev friends on bsky, but what does this mean for us as a nation?

“Upset” and “disappointment” really don’t cut it. We need to come together and work toward a better solution.

@ArcWillow09 Love these style of games, I’m a big Nier Automata fan myself. My game is GadgetSmack! No demo out yet but checkout the pinned post on my profile :)

@soulsgamedev @TheIndieManiac Is it just me or does this character look like he came out of wizard101 but with a major graphics upgrade?

[Ethan Marcello @ethanjmarcello]

@GameUnionTV @StayAtHomeDev Submissions are open until September 3rd, plenty of time to build something cool and submit!

[Ethan Marcello @ethanjmarcello]

@bewolbastudios Which animals do you get to farm? Goats would be cool

[Nimso | Shallow Pond @nimsodev]

Should little combos like this matter in the game? Would you reward them - or just let them feel smooth and satisfying?

Anything else you'd love to experience as a player?

@raphus_gamedev This is honestly🔥 surprised more people aren’t finding this!

[Ethan Marcello @ethanjmarcello]

@raphus_gamedev Artstyle is classy, top notch. One of the things I don’t like about deckbuilders is the high currency cost to remove cards from your deck. How is this addressed in your game?

[Ethan Marcello @ethanjmarcello]

@ContiGames @clemmygames No demo page out yet, but here’s a short clip they have on their YouTube page where they post devlog updates: https://t.co/mqr9982T8r

@EccoModeGames @DreamMixGames Very cool, looking forward to seeing more!

[Ethan Marcello @ethanjmarcello]

@AlboranStudios @clemmygames Ah ok makes sense!

[Ethan Marcello @ethanjmarcello]

@AlboranStudios I would die a lot lol I like the mechanic how you can switch thru the wall

[Ethan Marcello @ethanjmarcello]

@ContiGames @clemmygames Looks fun! I actually have a friend making a very similar game to this. 2D also in space with dinosaurs

[Ethan Marcello @ethanjmarcello]

@AlboranStudios @clemmygames Is this a rhythm game? Nice track, and the mechanics look tight. Good looks!

[Ethan Marcello @ethanjmarcello]

@upscale_with_us @clemmygames Graphics looking good, but I especially like the UI icons and mini-map, well crafted and nice colors. Looking forward to the upcoming release!

[Ethan Marcello @ethanjmarcello]

@AstraBestiary Can you ride the beasts? Thought I saw a quick clip that might suggest it in one of your videos

[Ethan Marcello @ethanjmarcello]

@AstraBestiary @clemmygames What sorts of beasts are these? They look very dinosaur and bug-like. Looks like a fun game!
