Cadence is out now! Make music by solving circuits. It took 13 years to figure how to do this well! Beyond the puzzles: 🐈‍⬛ Pet Ren, the cat! 📜 Enjoy Ren's life philosophy (all text is skippable) 🎹 Use the sandbox to make music 🧮 Or explore turing complete contraptions

Say you've been working on a game for 13 years without saying you've been working on a game for 13 years...

It's been a bit bizarre and frustrating securing coverage for Cadence, but then you discover that small creator has made an absolute gem of a review and it puts a smile on your face! youtube.com/watch?v=Z1tj7d…

What a pleasant surprise to see this launch out of nowhere. Remember the Kickstarter from over a decade ago and was so sad when it didn’t get funded. But this looks fantastic and I can’t wait to give it a go, awesome work @thefuntastic 🥳

@Revolt3r Ah, it was literally asking me to interact with the timeline to prove I'm a human still... good to know some bits still work :)

Localising Cadence made me understand I was influenced by the East more than I consciously realised... But also it's getting real close now!

This is the most conceptually challenging tile in Cadence. Have been musing for years if I should even build it, and how on earth to telegraph it to users. Fitting the last piece of content is my best work to date - really happy with the polish here.

An e.g. of how mad gamedev in 2025 is: Great, look at this niche games festival full of my prospective audience... ...with 477 niche games. That's more than the entire number of games that launched on Steam in the 2013, the year I started working on Cadence. 🪦

Producing promotional material is my anathema, but seeing Cadence taking its final form is slightly thrilling...

Surprised things I've forgotten about are still making ripples: 10 years ago I participated in a game jam for, of all things, the Swedish traffic department. Someone recently got in touch with me because they are still using the game for youth outreach and they want to update it
