Okay fair play this review just made me laugh out loud!
If you need any convincing that you should come and try Upfall (and dozens of other awesome games) tomorrow night at #ECGx / CodeBase, might I present you with the latest review it's received on Steam?
Really quite good/10

A poster for ECGx. It shows 3 screenshots of student projects and an image of a young person with blue hair and a checked shirt playing a puzzle game on what looks like an old CRT. (The game is CRT7, by Amicable Animal.) The screenshots contain images such as cute blob characters in a colourful pixel art environments, and what looks like a glowing robot or warrior in a dark eerie space. At the bottom are the words "Let's play some games!" and details of the event, including the date (5th June) and the URL https://dub.sh/ecgx2025 where you can find more info.

Screenshot of "Epic Wizard Game". Purple platforms are set against a lilac sky with pink clouds, with stylised sprites of wizards and cute monsters on them.
Screenshot of "Htraes Trail". An epic, flat-shaded landscape, with a lo-poly mountain standing against a bright moonlit sky. In the distance a huge snake-like monster is rearing its head.
A screenshot of "Come Bye". A sheepdog is surrounded by sheep in a bright and sunny meadow. The on-screen UI mentions that there are 33 sheep today, and that total sheep saved and lost is 25 and 4.

That new level for #ECGx is coming together -- I've added the obligatory rescue-the-merchant-from-insects aside, a small Exon tomb with a fancy sword you can rob, turrets whose bulets you can deflect back at them... and more! Phew. Just under 3 weeks to make sure it all actually _works_. 😅

Into the Restless Ruins
(a Scottish dungeon deckbuilder with IMPECCABLE vibes, by Ant Workshop)
is out!
You should buy it today!
But if you don't, you should wishlist it, then come to #ECGx 👈 on 5th June, try it out in person, *then* buy it.
Or both!

The theme for the student projects at this year's #ECGx was "Lifeforms", btw. They've come up with amazing concepts based off of that. Can't wait to see them and let folks at them!

Since it's #ECGx season, I figured that, rather than panicking and trying to get Exon's existing levels back in working order for public exhibition, it might be better to make a brand new -- SMALL -- demo level using all the new props. One that, you know, passers-by might be able to beat.

I'll be posting some teasers of the games made by our awesome students, and our indie guests, over the next few weeks.
And if you're a dev or studio of any size and you'd like to demo your game at #ECGx, we'll be very happy to have you, no costs, PCs provided. Get in touch!

zomg not long now until #ECGx! Over 30 projects to play and enjoy! Tuesday evening at Codebase!
Looks like I will be across from the snack/chat area with Exon... so we'll see if this juices my player count or just my calorific intake.
