hi all, I'm making a decision that I've been putting off for a while - I'm ceasing the Saturday threads.
they have been getting less and less traction over time, and it is unrealistic for me to expect devs to take time out of their day contribute to these threads without any real returns. 
this does mean, basically, there isn't anything left that Reload is doing. it pains me that we are really just ending with a whisper instead of a bang, but there's been little activity here, and I haven't been able to dedicate the time needed for this place to thrive with my own development work and full-time job. 
I'm sorry. I wanted to at least keep the Saturday threads going for the benefit of the devs, but I don't think there's any benefit to them, other than a weekly confirmation that we can't do what's needed for you folks. 
Dedicate your time to more actively run places such as Debug Magazine, Indie Games Magazine, and even Youtubers like IcarusLives, Civvie, and Ruby Ranger and curators like Dominic Tarason and Casey Explosion. They love indies, they will cover them, in much better ways than I can. 
I'll always be cheering you guys on. I love indie games, but I can't dedicate the time they deserve. I'm sorry.
love and frags,
Shannon

I released PULCRA.

It's a more frantic version of a Slenderman-style game.

Each sigil collected adds more enemies in the never-ending wave, until the number of enemies becomes almost unbearable, but you have a gun.

For this Halloween I'm making PULCRA.

It is my take on the maze horror/Slender Man type of game.
Players have a gun and there is a few easter eggs and secrets to find.

Average play time is 10 min (knowing exatly what to do and where to go).
