Added pinning (bookmarking) moments (time based locations) to my game, allowing the user to go to important moments in time at a glance. (For example, when allying with moments or defending them from erosion.) Also added heatmaps for the different moment statistics.

Excited to be collabing with @musicvsartstuff.bsky.social in creating the music for Time Distortionists! She's created 3 pieces so far and they will be available to hear in the next Playtest this Friday in Raleigh!

New feature for my time travel strategy game - mission flavor text. Now the mission has flavor success/failure text depending on the mission type and dynamics of the moment and location in time. This was a quick win bases on playtest feedback.

Actions in my game are small things you can do like scanning moments in time to discover them, suppressing a lead so you don't have to worry about it expiring, etc.

I added an action queue visualizing where and what actions you did and allowed the user to undo the action.

"Player making decisions", Chapter 23: Behaviourism

This chapter was surprisingly good!
(spoiler alert: book gets better from here)

This chapter explains how different reward pattern affect player engagement, on a example we all love: coin pusher

Sometimes you have to take a step back and just realize how much your game can improve if you just keep working on it.

These shots are two years apart.

Keep at it.

Totally reasonable. It's as competitive as e-commerce of course!

The master course cost $400 but highly recommend it (it's a one time purchase) - earlier is better to know all the phases of marketing.
