If you are at #GDQ in Pittsburgh, #HAFO is playable at the #UnityPGH booth near the @megacatstudios.bsky.social booth in the King's Garden!

I'll be there later in the week in the indie vendor room.

Year of the Horse but where is the horse?!
(It's silly I can play the game with the horse invisible)
Toying around with camera angle changes so more of the stage can be visible. I have some ideas to improve but yea. First #HAFO video of 2026!

UGH!!! I finally fixed #HAFO and the accessory / color system.
Now accessories are dynamically loaded so they all don't have to be on the prefab and can be dynamically recolored.

I sort of wanna redo the idle cause it's annoying...lol

Getting closer to liking this #HAFO stage stuff more and paying for a stock site def. made it faster than RawPixel; however, I think I may cut the 3ds max part and just use Unity's SpriteRenderers...scale is still an issue because it's a faux background though 2...

Got back to working on #HAFO again FINEIGHLLY...I want to do like "paper cutout" style backgrounds and I think I got something close, but the folding obscures too much between players; I think I want to zoom in the space more, last make things closer together. #gamedev #indiedev #indiegame

#Neighvember may have hit a snag, but for the 3rd day of this month I'll just ask: what's your favorite horse movie?
Mine's Horse Girl. Does it count? Probably not but I'll take it.

Close to getting accessories to load and unload dynamically for #HAFO using AssetBundles but still not sure I'm doing it right or like should every separate accessory be an asset bundle or should I put them into one big one? The former sounds correct but sounds like it'll be too many...

Have you ever been through the desert on a horse with no mane? For the 2nd day of #Neighvember, here's a quick look at some work I'm doing so manes and tails can be customized more easily in #HAFO.

I'm torn. Wanted to use #Patreon for allowing users to commission things for #HAFO; however, I don't like that you pay first. Like what if someone wants to commission something I can't do and pays already? Hmmm...maybe I just make it a google form? Blech...don't love that either...

On this late #Neighvember Eve, I'm enjoying a horse-themed cocktail, a Kentucky Oaks Lily - creative-culinary.com/kentucky-oak... - or at least my own twist of it (Blue Curacao instead of orange liquor)

I'll be making #HAFO related posts all month! Saddle up for Neighvember!

Ok. I am probably not doing a #HAFO #Kickstarter - bad month + too much work - but I still want to do #crowdfunding, so I think I'm going to sell features / parts of the game for supporters to design.

Accessories, attacks, stages, etc. A new thing and I'll see how it goes.

If I didn't want to work on #HAFO next month, I feel like I'd want to try and do a Prototypember where I try to do one prototype every month for a type of gameplay I've never really done before.

BUT I feel I would probably need a "base" to fit prototypes into first so they can be actually playable.

Still pretty early, but here's the #HAFO "Poster" editor idea prototyped.

I want to add different fonts, name editor (choose an adjective + a noun sort of thing) and then add an "Icon" that goes somewhere silly.

After showcasing #HAFO this weekend, I realized a few things.

1.) Moves should probably always be visible (can maybe turn off
2.) Even simple things probably need prompts like the barrier

Won't solve every problem, but a start.

Just a simple controller layout for a showcase...tbh...I built this *in* Unity and it's sort of sad I'm faster at building something like this in Unity than Photoshop...then again I still use CS4 so...yea...

Taking #HAFO to a local game showcase Saturday.

It's close to a good setup, but I need a tutorial.

Have an idea but it involves making a video.

Made a lot of progress on #HAFO.

Levels are now procedurally generated and based on how many "challenges" you want done in a race. This video showcases 1 challenge and 3 challenge (you can do up to 30...for now)

So, #HAFO is coming to steam (eventually)
But unsure if I should call it...

* H.A.F.O.
* HAFO.: Horse Around, Find Out
* Horse Around, Find Out

I feel one of the first two but unsure...thoughts?
