ZAD-Man (ZAD Games)

So excited to announce that Key Gunner IS OUT!!! Here's the link to its page on @itchio! zad-man.itch.io/key-gunner Please check it out! And please spread the word if you're at all able! #GameDev #IndieDev #VideoGames #KeyGunner

I had a couple months where I couldn't responsibly put time into gamedev, but I should theoretically be able to continue to get a few hours of work on this and another project now that things have settled down a bit. :) So more to show soon, I hope!

A few months ago, Cocophany released an asset pack called Bloomseed. I fell in love immediately and knew I needed to make a game with it. I set about getting it all set up in Gamemaker (auto-tiling, animations, etc.) and now have the beginnings of a game going!

@chris_bigk ?

@ShimazuSystems @retro_rusty That's so neat!

@retro_rusty Custom making! I'm more aiming for a PDA like experience

I have added the keypad, & added hardware input (again, finally). Small things like wiring those LEDs up & screwing the I/O shield back in aee about all that remains. It is 3:15am, I must sleep

The time to return to Planet 4546B has come! @Subnautica Below Zero is now available on mobile! Discover new biomes, creatures and challenges in a new story! 🍎 bit.ly/BelowZero-iOS 🤖 bit.ly/BelowZero-Andr…

@KenneyNL @godotengine Definitely interest from me!

Had a few hours to spare so I made a match-3 game in @godotengine. Any interest to release this as a new Starter Kit, open source? I'll add some more juice, sounds and improve the visuals!

@MarioBrothBlog @PoeGhost1 Don't worry, I've seen it plenty

@PoeGhost1 I am terribly sorry if this is not a widely used term, but I was merely going off the Wikipedia description of the phone. I have heard both "flip phone" and "clamshell phone" used and in such cases of ambiguity, defer to Wikipedia for my wording. I hope this is acceptable!

Certain models of the 2003 Motorola MPx200 clamshell phone contained a ringtone that was blatantly just the "Fever" theme from Dr. Mario with different notes.

@Playdigious I still go back every once in a while 🙂

What a day it was...

@Playdigious Probably die before I can think of anything 😭

Quick thinking! You're in this situation in Subnautica #BelowZero... What do you do?

@JamesStanard @zachtronics Yeah!! x.com/zachtronics/st…

@zachtronics Did you say new DLC?!

Surprise! Opus Magnum (and its new DLC) are also coming to Nintendo Switch. Available on March 17th! nintendo.com/us/store/produ…

Holy freaking crap. Opus Magnum is one of my favorite games of all time, and I never thought we'd see any more official content!

@xthree F. A. Double N, Double E, D. Double O, L, Double E!

Sometimes my brain will randomly go, "02134, send it to zoom!"

@TimothyD51155 @Coffeeshock_S @SpillTheMemes This is true! At least to start, before they made more radio dramas to finish out the story based off the books. And heck, now seems like a good time to mention that the text adventure is a great time too! 😁

@ZADMan @Coffeeshock_S @SpillTheMemes Well, the books are the adaptations of the Radio dramas.

😂

@Coffeeshock_S @SpillTheMemes Agreed! Also, listen to the radio dramas. They're even better than I expected. Afterwards, the movie and the show can be enjoyed as novelties, but certainly best if they aren't the primary interaction.

@SpillTheMemes Why watching the movie, when you can read the books? I definitively recommend to read the "trilogy in five parts" of the Hitchhikers Guide and skip the movie. For real.

@NaT_A_fugue I'll have to keep that in mind! 🙂

@ZADMan It seems mods are quite popular for this game.

今更Starboundクリア。不毛な惑星で掘り過ぎて全ロストした時は投げそうになったが、何とかなったぜ。 なんか宇宙版Terrariaかと思ってたが独特なゲームだったな。

@joethephish Oh, yeah, that works well for that!

@ZADMan Thanks! Think I’ve reached a compromise that retains the fun while being a little less confusing (hopefully!)

Turns out too many people got confused by my paywall in Hour by Hour so I'm going to have to redesign it 😭 Sharing it here so it doesn't disappear for all eternity, I really enjoyed building it.

@joethephish Aw, that's too bad, I thought it was fun 🙂

Maybe I'll try to keep a small part of the joke but make it less confusing. Some testers thought it was an actual price picker or that it was genuinely down to luck or something 😔

@KenneyNL Extension to Desert Shooter :)

What's some #gameassets you'd like to see from me?

@KenneyNL Ohhh, I love this! I've felt the same way for a long time!

I was so incredibly tired of all those sound generators that can only create retro sounds... so I created my own! It's a work in progress and it'll be part of a new project but enjoy some sounds I've made. Each of these took a minute tops! ✨
