This one is a bit different, it's a metroidvania, but it's inspired by NES platformer favs. If a wholesome, newcomer-friendly metroidvania sounds up your alley definitely give it a go! ๐
Oh no! Sorry to hear it crashed, I created a #bug-reports channel in our Discord if you wanna share any details! discord.com/invite/9Nymg...
Thank you! ๐
tysm! ๐๐
Little Nemo and the Guardians of Slumberland is SO GOOD Y'ALL! This might be the best platformer I've seen this year. Beautiful art style, great music, solid challenge, and a fun take on familiar characters. Y'all gotta check it out. It has an ALF. #indiegame #indiegames #indiedev @diesoft.games
tbf, you're actually not far off from how long ago I actually started (I worked on it for about 7 years) but I kept mostly radio silent until I was ready for the Kickstarter ๐
Haha, it hasn't quite been THAT long, but it is wild that the Kickstarter was over three and half years ago ๐ตโ๐ซ

Starts 7pm ET on www.twitch.tv/calamitynolan
Thank you! ๐ Please make sure to ping in #share-your-stuff if you end up streaming it, I'd love to watch!
I just released my first ever game on Steam! If a hand-animated love-letter to your favorite NES platformers all packaged up into a modern metroidvania sounds like your thing, it's only $17.99 rn with the launch discount!
Thank you! I modeled her after Cyndi Lauper because I thought she was very cool when I was a little kid (I mean I still do, but I did then too).
๐๐ Very excited!
Yeah, it's based on the same comic strip from 1905: Winsor McCay's Little Nemo in Dreamland ๐
Oh thank you! ๐
Launching my first ever game tomorrow @ 11am EDT ๐ฎ After years of hard work, it's finally here ๐
If you love metroidvanias or games that capture that classic NES platformer magic, this one's for you. Please RT to help spread the word! ๐๐ฉท
Awww thanks, Sl0nk0 ๐ I hope you'll be streaming because I would love to watch you play the full game ๐
Oh thank you! And yes, more Nemo is always good ๐
It's the last #wishlistwednesday before Little Nemo releases! It's a hand-animated love-letter to the NES platformers you know and love. If you've been curious about metroidvanias, this is the one to try!

I'm gonna be at GDC next week! I've been heads down in work just making this game for so many years, it will be cool to get out and meet other game dev folks. Shoot me a DM if you'll be there and wanna meet up!
Little Nemo and the Guardians of Slumberland by @diesoft.games. I'm old enough to remember the NES Little Nemo game, so this was a colorful, candy-filled blast from the past. Delightful 2D platforming in a lovingly hand-drawn dreamscape. (13/x) store.steampowered.com/app/2074630/...
But of course, if you wanna play it yourself and/or wishlist the game, you can find it here on Steam: store.steampowered.com/app/2074630/...
Excited reaction to all of the fun details found in Nemo's bedroom
If you don't get a chance to play the Little Nemo demo before #SteamNextFest ends, I hope you'll at least watch
@johnnyboombotz.bsky.social's playthrough. It's so rewarding after years of hard work, to watch someone really enjoying everything about it ๐

I think Vampire Crawlers might have been my number 1, but absolutely LOVED Little Nemo & the Guardian of Slumberland. Such a colorful and upbeat feeling for a metroidvania
