Hey girls and boys! Hah, you thought there would be no blog post this year, didn’t you? Guess again! Yes, we’re still here. No, your favorite vaporware beat ’em up is still not dead. It’s actually more alive than ever! 😎 First, we’ve changed our game’s title to Zabu. We…

Hey guys. We’re in November, and this is the first post of the year. What a lively blog! Is Zabuyaki dead? Right now, yes, it is. But fear not, it’s not the end. Zabu will rise again, like the phoenix. Let’s have a look back at this whole mess. In…

Quick heads-up in case you’ve missed the news on Twitter or on Zabuyaki’s site: you can now play Zabuyaki from your web browser! Not on mobile, though. Maybe one day. That means you don’t need to install the game anymore if you just want to check it out quickly. That said, note that installing the game will give you the best gaming experience (better performances and stability, and fewer bugs). Try it at: https://www.zabuyaki.com/play/

Just a little heads-up: Zabuyaki has just been migrated to the newest version of LÖVE. For some context, LÖVE (or Love2D) is an open-source cross-platform engine for developing 2D video games. Back when we started Zabuyaki in 2016 (yeah, it’s been that long), we started it on LÖVE 0.10.0, the…

Hey guys! We’re not dead yet, and neither is Zabuyaki. We’re just lazy and would rather tweet from time to time than write stuff here. Besides, if we’ve got time to write blog posts, then we feel like we’d rather work on the game instead, you know? Anyway, today, I’d…

Hey guys! What’s up with our little game, Zabuyaki? We still seem to be stuck in development hell, but we’re working hard to escape it. Here’s a quick recap of what we’ve been up to over the last few months: We’re still working on the first stage graphics (including a…

Almost 3 years ago, I was telling you about our stage backgrounds (yeah, it’s been that long…). I lacked experience and a global vision, so, in the end, I just wasted my time. For a while now, we’ve been trying to find a background artist, because I already had my…

Hey guys! Hello? Is anyone still reading this?… Well, let’s pretend so. Are we still working on Zabuyaki? You bet. Is it taking forever? We can’t deny it. We’re learning along the way, making every possible mistake before ending up figuring out saner way to do things. Lately, we’ve been…

Hey guys. Obligatory memo at the beginning of each of my posts: no, Zabuyaki is not dead yet, and neither are we. Life has just been very busy for me (new house, new job, side project…). …
