Been working a lot on Retreat from Darkness writing lately. Getting that lovecraftian sweet spot on a roguelike structure is such a delightful challenge (one I dare say I`m conquering really well)
Loved to see @ruesafer.bsky.social playing Retreat From Darkness. It was a great to see the game design working and also gave me lots of ideas to improve upon.
You should check it out too!

⁉️What is pre-alpha?
It's an early stage in development where basics are tested, with art and features not finished yet, a key step to adjust the feel of the game before going all in with the design.

Placeholder animation was way to intense, so I started working on the game feel side of it. What a lovely Saturday it has been so far

Just had a Retreat From Darkness test run. My heart is pounding, but I beat the game. There is still a lot of work to be done, but I'm super happy with how good it has become since I started.

Thanks!
How about some Retreat From Darkness pre-alpha gameplay?
#indiegame #indiegames #gamedev #lovecraftian #cosmichorror
Is it worth working on that 10% of the game if only 2% of the players will ever experience it? Yes it is. That is the kind of thing that gave Silent Hill 2 it`s depth and that is the kind of thing Retreat From Darkness will have. The 2% deserves it.
