Welcome to another development update. This time we have been working hard in having a pretty stable game and showcasing at events. Let me show you what we have been doing in a bit more of detail!

Game over screen

We have implemented a dynamic Game Over screen. If you get killed and you don’t have any lives left you will see this screen:

Monsters will change depending on the world you were killed at. There will be a continue option there in the future as well.

Purple wheel warning sound

We have noticed that the purple wheel is funny but you usually don’t see it coming…

Time to showcase the game in events around Europe!

It really has been a long long time without any updates. This is because I’ve been extremely busy with a lot of business-related things and events going on.

The development is still going on but this time has been a bit slower due to those. Most of the improvements have been quality of life aditions or bug fixes.

So what have we been doing in all this time then?

In between worlds animation

We have been working hard to have the first world completely finished. And now that it is, it is time to implement…

Polishing the first world with bugfixes and animations!

Hi everyone! It again took long to write an update, sorry for this. I am very very busy working in the game as well as doing business stuff and it’s getting difficult to update as often as I used to. But of course the game development continues! Here is what we’ve been working on since the last update.

Death animations

One of the things that was confusing for a lot of people were that there was no death animation. For the normal monsters this was not a big issue since you could see that…

We keep going with the development of the game: new power ups implemented, hi-score table, new tutorial screen and more!

Power ups in action

I talked about the new power ups in the last development update. By then there was only design but now we finally have them in place.

Here is the diamond item:

As you can see the diamond will appear if you do match 3 with the pink blocks. The diamond will help you achieve hi-score since it gives you a lot of points! …

Pushy, Pully and all of us at Resistance Studio would like to wish you a Merry Christmas 🎄

We are going to take a deserved rest and we’ll continue with the updates after this holiday.

Have a great time with your loved ones!

We continue with the second world of the game. We have also new power ups and animations to show.

New Ice World

As I mentioned before, the game will have five different themed worlds. So far I’ve only showed the first one but we have recently started designing the second world. For this second one the theme is Ice. It will have specific monsters that match that theme and several details that I’ll be revealing when we have them ready.

But I can show you a nice Icy background with one of the old stages to see how it looks

This is just…

My journey as an entrepreneur began a year ago. In this time I have learned some lessons that I’d like to share with you.

When you read stories about indie developers you usually see:

• Postmortems of games: What went wrong, what went right, and some lessons learned on the way.
• Disaster stories: people that tried and fail miserably, run out of money after 6 months, etc.
• Very successful stories: Minecraft, Stardew Valley, etc.

But usually not so many people tell the story from the point of view of the business. After a year running my indie studio I’ve also noticed…
