Its alright lol
Also, slight correction, Fanzine 1 doesnt contain those tutorials I mentioned, it was: "Game Development with PICO-8 by Dylan Bennet"
The fanzines teach stuff as well
All resources are available in the Resources Tab in Lexaloffle under PICO-8 :)
www.lexaloffle.com/pico-8.php?p...
My surname is also Munga!
You can start with the PICO ZINE #1 it has a step by step tutorial on making a Cave Diver game as well as a Lunar Lander game both with thorough explanations

Gallery Unlocks Done!

Back in December 2023, I replaced my laptop fan because it was too noisy. I placed the old one in a drawer and as of 2 weeks ago, my replacement fan became too noisy. I dont have any money so I swapped it with the old one.
It has whisper levels of noise.
Years of inactivity probably fixed it.

I'm happy to announce that both Rapid Roll DX and Astro Impact! De_Make in Defold have full controller support on Android! (Tested with a Dualshock 4)

Astro Impact! De_Make is now 3 years old. I made a post going through the history and the future as well as teasers for what's to come...
Take a gander:

After universal atlas, from 8.45MB to 8.54MB; Universal Arch APK/AAB (Armv7 and armv9)
After Universal Atlas, 4.44MB, armv7 android APK/AAB arch only
Before Universal Atlas, 8.4MB, Universal Arch APK/AAB (Armv7 and armv9)
Same game, 1 level, 5 music tracks (uncompressed) in Godot, 179MB, 84MB with uncompressed music
Did a "soft" rework of how graphics in my game are handled, from tile sources to an atlas. More than 128 sprites exported and reimported. Took me 4 days! Saved a single Draw call lol

Did a test to see a difference in size... 4.44MB!!!

Would you believe me if I told you this took around 3 weeks to fully implement?

Also, Graphic Design isn't a Hobby, It's a Lifestyle.
I played the demo of this game on the June 2025 next fest and it was really, really good!
Exactly a year ago, 31/01/25, I launched my first Defold and Commercial game, Rapid Roll DX.
Because of that game, y'all were able to give me a second chance. I am truly grateful. Thank you, again, always.
RRDX & AIDM are getting updates soon~ish
#gamedev #solodev #indiedev #indiegamedev #Defold
My games, Rapid Roll DX and Astro Impact! De_Make were featured in the Defold Game Engine 2025 Showreel!
Feels nice that I even showed the family back home 😁

I have completed Phase 1 of the credits system for Astro Impact! De_Make. I plan on making it playable!
If you'd like your name there or removed, lemme know :D

Lifted my leg to scratch my lower thigh and the cat sleeping on top of my thighs didnt move.
Yep 2026 is gonna be a good year
Happy New Year from Kenya. Look forward to my projects and I also look forward to playing y'all games and interacting with your creations <3
What the hell is going on with the solo dev discourse?
As the year ends, I can only describe it with one word: busy.
So many things to work on, so little time. Im sorry for promising updates and failing to deliver, but trust me, Im working on it.
I'd also like to thank all of you, again and always. Thank you. I can type this because of y'all
#solodev
Thanks! Its even more juicy now with the introduction of init animations!
Thanks!
Really? I thought it was the Beep8 Dev...
Forgot the init animation. That was quick and I think all Menu GUI work is done. :D
#defold #indiedev #gamedev #solodev #indiegamedev #indiegame
Level 1 is complete, for real this time.
Level 2 doesn't have bosses, but it should be a breeze now.
The underlying work for the other game modes; Boss Rush, 3 Min Caravan and Survival is in place, just need to define the enemies and logic.
Brace for Impact, Astro Impact! (Also, Rapid Roll DX!)
Lil Progress Update
(Damn, I'm so bad with promises. Im sorry)
After working on the Option system in Astro Impact! De_Make, I had to go back and redo the first level. Its in a better state now.
I also did work on the GUI. It looks and feels nice now

My brain works funny. In the midst of typing out the problem, I figured out the solution as soon as I finished typing the problem on the Defold Discord. Multiple Code Snippets provides as well as a video clip
Figuring out the solution in the midst of typing it out seeking help in the Defold Discord.
Sometimes my genius is almost frightening...

Orie is tired after the constant mousing activities and code reviewing
We're tired.

I like the lil red scorpion
Im still here. Locked in despite setbacks
Not only have I been offline for more than a week, I had no electricity since Nov 29. The local transformer blew up.
Charged my stuff and committed my changes at my friends place in the next village.
Feels like Im in the medieval times. What did I miss?
#solodev #indiedev #gamedev #Defold
In university, I upgraded to a smartphone. I didnt like the games, so I tried j2me emulation with Netmite App runner.
I could play almost all the games, but not the OG classics.
I got into game dev to make my own successors.
I have made Rapid Roll DX, Snake Dungeon Xenzia and Astro Impact! De_Make
I grew up playing mobile game on Nokia Featurephones. Rapid Roll, Snake, Bounce, Space Impact and the like.
In highschool, I bought my first Phone, the Nokia 3110 Classic. This enabled me to download lots of games.
I had a 2GB microSD with 147MB worth of Java games. around 400+ games (1/2)
Let's go Defolders!
Share what you are working on! 🧡💙
