Implementing a Dynamic Difficulty option to Soul King right now.

The game's structure lends itself to this kind of thing, and it's basically two dials.

If the wall catches you, a number ticks up, if an enemy kills you a diffeerent number ticks up.

working on polishing and set dressing for Soul King. The list of flags I'm putting in are seemingly very random

There is something so personal and anxiety inducing about having someone edit your scripts for a game.

Like co-writing is great and I love it, but then to have someone go through and find all you mistakes is a real hit to the ego.

If they can’t afford to pay writers then they can’t afford to be making movies and TV.

If you can't afford a yacht, telling the yacht dealer to simply accept less doesn't work. If you can't afford an employee, telling the employee to simply accept less doesn't work. #WGAStrong

Hello everyone trying a new sales tactic:

Please wishlist and then buy Soul King so I can buy lots of Gears of War toys off of Ebay.

Just FYI, every time someone asks "is this a gay game?" or "Is this one of those woke/SJW games?" about Soul King, another character becomes cannonically gay. Sorry I don't make the rules*

*actually I do lol

Somehow I missed the announcement that in anticipation of MS ending the UWP support, GM kinda totally killed their UWP support.

So I guess an Xbox release of Soul King is totally dead until we can partner with a publisher or make enough money to justify the costs of a real port

My favorite thing about releasing a game is that I get to close like 30% of these tabs

My favorite thing about being married the an offline person is that like, she doesn't know who Steven Crowder is.

Ben Shapiro who? Tucker Carlson? Was he the guy from that dumb horror movie you made me watch? Alex Jones? Like the detective?

Spent the last day or so putting together menus and endcards for our demo at an upcoming local Comic Con. We did a demo last year, just a few months into development and got a great response. I hope our nearly complete version of Soul King will get an even better reaction.

If i had a nickle for every time I've been tricked by my love of Dominic Purcell into seeing an Uwe Boll movie I'd have two nickles.

It's not a lot, but it's weird that it's happened twice.

I don't know if I love how Spoutible does replies? I like how BirdApp shows replies along with original Tweets, makes it feel more conversational to me.

It's a long backstory, but the decoy item in Soul King is named Skeletony.

Skeletony preparing for a nice cookout by the lake.

OK I need help.

there's an old video (maybe late 80's or 90's) of a professional wrestler looking over someone's code, and then pointing out their error and they all go 🤦‍♂️

I have no idea what to look up to find this video.

I wonder when we'll get to Xbox360/PS3 Aestetic being considered retro?

Are we going to get a spiritual successor to Gears of War and Halo from the indie space?

I finally fixed the Decoy(now called Skeletony) in Soul King! Had an issue with enemies not dropping their current target to aquire the decoy.

Of course all I was missing was one little tiny line to drop the character's current target.

If you're a #gamedev (any discipline!) or games industry/media/press on Spoutible here, reply under this with who you are and what you are, so we can all find each other!

OK so in poking around the "Normal 0-5%" on everyone's profile is basically their toxicity rating?

Neat idea- though I feel like having it show for users that are within the "Normal" or "Acceptable" range is weird.

OK, trying another one of these Twitter replacements. So. . . where all my #gamedev and #IndieGames people at?

Working on a #retrofps about dreams and outrunning a wall of death called Soul King.
