Ooops #6

Mon, 04 May 2026 00:48:58 GMT

I made a spelling mistake in the dialogue, and forgot to upload one of the sound effects...

Added a story

Mon, 04 May 2026 00:40:24 GMT

There's an intro cutscene now, you can access it on the main menu. Please excuse my writing if it seems a little wooden. I'll also be updating the game's description to better fit this...

New security

Sun, 03 May 2026 22:24:15 GMT

I say security because this enemy is native to the maze. It's on the same team as the bouncers so it doesn't deliberately target them. ...I can't think of a promo image for this one, it's not somethin...

Navigation fix

Sun, 03 May 2026 21:17:53 GMT

Due to the web version (the only version you have access to at this moment in time) having a lower framerate than the local version even on high-end hardware, the delta time is quite high. Delta time...

New enemy

Sun, 03 May 2026 21:08:06 GMT

Added a new enemy, it might be annoying. But it certainly brings some new chaos to the game which is always good...

Ooops #5

Sun, 03 May 2026 15:57:10 GMT

Click to reveal spoiler bugfix about new enemy Fixed a bug where the bulldozer, upon breaking through walls, would rapidly and diagonally move to its old location without breaking walls, and without m...

Ooops #4

Sat, 02 May 2026 19:53:38 GMT

The yellow reticle which replaces the cursor during gameplay (which was added in a bugfixing update I didn't document) wasn't layered correctly and so was unaffected by the CRT filter...

Improved debug

Sat, 02 May 2026 19:33:38 GMT

Did you know there's a debug mode? I'll never tell you how to access it! ↑ ↑ ↓ ↓ ← → ← → B A...

Ooops #3

Sat, 02 May 2026 19:04:56 GMT

There were a lot of behavioural issues with the new enemy that arose at the lower average framerates on the web version. Also it didn't target other instances of itself...

New enemy

Sat, 02 May 2026 18:48:46 GMT

Added a powerful new enemy...

Attack of the clones

Sat, 02 May 2026 16:43:47 GMT

Added a new feature where the Clones can team up, if they're the same colour. This also applies to you, because the player character is a Clone too. We're on build 67 now...

Ooops #2

Sat, 02 May 2026 11:06:53 GMT

Fixed a bug where weapon audio would not update when the SFX volume was changed. Also rebalanced some weapons to make them more powerful...

More weapons

Sat, 02 May 2026 10:54:24 GMT

Added 7 more weapons, of varying types and power. The general idea is deciding if what you have is good, or what you might get from the weapon box is better. I'll have to add even more weapons for tha...

Better control

Fri, 01 May 2026 21:32:21 GMT

That is, your control over the game and the enemies' control over themselves. You can now individually set volume for music and SFX. Improved the AI of the Hunter and the Clone...

Ooops #1

Fri, 01 May 2026 21:08:39 GMT

This starts a recurring devlog topic where I immediately fix egregious mistakes. Fixed an issue where you could shoot yourself if you ran forward into your own bullets...

Better collision

Fri, 01 May 2026 21:04:16 GMT

You can no longer just walk through bullets. Sorry. Also applied another fix to pathfinding...

Pathfinding improvement?

Fri, 01 May 2026 18:02:10 GMT

Added potential fix for pathfinding at lower framerates...

Release

Fri, 01 May 2026 17:25:05 GMT

Game has been released. For now it only has two weapons, three enemies, and a kind of repetitive world...
