Howdy! Today I'm coming at you with a patch build of Cosmogelica. A lot of what I've been doing with the game this past week has been related to preparing for (and eventually revealing) its presence on Steam. Yea, if you didn't know, Cosmogelica has...

2023-09-12 23:00:31 +0000 UTC View PostHowdy! Coming at you today with a new patch for Cosmogelica that fixes some of the bugs people found, as well as makes improvements and adds stuff that I couldn't add in time for SAGE 2023.
Before that though, I'd like to take this moment to thank everyone who's been supporting me on Patreon, as well as the ...

It's out now! Blast off into space in this arcade-inspired shmup where you don't have to dodge bullets! Fight off waves of enemies and blast away the cosmic gel!

2023-09-01 17:41:56 +0000 UTC View PostEDIT: A couple bugs were immediately found due to some last minute changes I didn't fully test out. If you've played the game and you see your save file says something like "Fish Scales: 300/0" you've got the bad version, so please restart your Steam client (if you're on steam) to fetch the latest version. Sorry for the inconvenience! This one a...
2023-08-25 22:02:22 +0000 UTC View PostHere it is! This is (hopefully) the final build I'm doing for Cosmogelica for the SAGE 2023 demo. Unless some weird and wacky bugs are found, this is what's being sent to SAGE.
To expand the testing pool prior to the demo, I've temporarily opened up downloads to ALL patrons. 2023-08-17 01:36:14 +0000 UTC View Post
We're getting close! I think the last thing I need to do is add foreground graphics to one of the stages, and then barring any weird bugs, that's it? This patch mainly focuses on adding polish and cleaning up some rough edges, as well as rewriting some code to be more efficient (Cosmogelica is already pretty fast, but now it's FASTER >:] ) 2023-08-15 01:47:23 +0000 UTC View Post
I didn't want to go here but I said "if I get 3 invites I'll do it" so, here I am lol I'm on the cursed Bluesky site, if you like curses, blue skies, or me on other sites https://bsky.app/profile/roxy.cyansorcery.com
Also, Cosmogelica's demo is near...
2023-08-12 22:30:15 +0000 UTC View PostWowza! Another one!
The good news though, is that this one is more or less it. I'm gonna be adding some tweaks and polishes depending on what feedback or bug reports I get from this, but otherwise, all the big things and most of the small things are in! There will be one more build with whatever this build brings + the small polishes, and ...
2023-08-08 20:11:29 +0000 UTC View PostWoah! Another patch!
This one mainly focuses on graphical enhancements, but I also changed the gel generation (which is the main reason for this patch, since I wanna get feedback on it.)
Here are the notes:
I know, another one?? Right now I'm fine tuning the difficulty balancing, so it takes a few builds to get it juuuust right.
If you're not in the beta testing for the game and you're not in the server, hit me up and I'll let you check it out (but you have to tell me what you think!!)
Here's the patch notes:
Here's a little patch to yesterday's build! I got a good amount of feedback from testers that wasn't too difficult to implement real quickly, so this patch is the result of that! Here's the notes:
First, if you didn't hear, Cosmogelica will be coming to SAGE 2023 on September 1st, 2023! Everyone will be able to download the demo then and check it out. I hope you look forward to it!
Today I come to testers with a new build. This one completely overhauls how backgrounds are loaded in, making them a lot more complex and detailed. It al...
2023-07-26 22:37:46 +0000 UTC View PostHowdy! Coming at you today with a new build of Cosmogelica, for demo testers and patrons. The highlight of this build is that the boss is finished! With that + some other stuff I did in this build, it's *almost* ready for the demo. Now it's just time for small adjustments and tweaks (as well as adjustments to boss difficulty I'm sure 😂) ...
2023-07-13 23:37:53 +0000 UTC View PostI've finally written the blog post I didn't want to write, which talks about the difficulties I'm facing as a self-employed creator, some immediate financial issues I'm facing, and what's been going on this past year and a half. I don't know what will happen by talking about it, but the time is now or never
Surprise! I've released the Shield Cat Demo EP! It is a collection of songs from the demo, as well as several beta and unused songs from the development of the game. Please check it out over on Bandcamp, thank you!
Howdy! Coming at you with another Cosmogelica build, if you can believe it! This one focuses mainly on more balance tweaking, as well as a bunch of improved graphics and QoL stuff to make the game easier to understand and more fun to play. Please see the patch notes for details!
Before that though, I wanna put it out there: I've gotten tes...

2023-06-23 22:10:37 +0000 UTC View Postaka "Game balance is hard lol"
I figured I could put the build I did yesterday and then go work on some art, but after watching someone play until they got 999 fuel and 999 missiles, it was clear I needed to do some balance changes LOL I wrote the formation generator and did a few other things and, I guess, neglected to check how that affe...
2023-06-20 23:22:53 +0000 UTC View PostBoy howdy, I'm really putting these out there huh? I've been tweaking a bunch of stuff and improving it based on feedback, as well as taking some time to fix up bugs. My goal is to come out with a demo, so yea, that's what I'm working towards now. I'm still looking for prototype testers if anyone is interested! I've gotten plenty of feedback alr...

2023-06-15 07:47:15 +0000 UTC View PostHowdy! Coming at you today with a new prototype build of Cosmogelica! This one makes gameplay changes as suggested by players, as well as has a complete overhaul of the gameplay UI. The changelog is short, but the changes themselves are pretty big I think.
