This #ShowMeSunday I'm showing a new feature of Abysm, my atmospheric #puzzlegame: dying can leave behind a small pile of bones which stay there while you keep retrying the chamber.
Play the #SteamNextFest demo today: store.steampowered.com/app/4025180
#gamedev #indiedev #indiegame #puzzlegame
Abysm today: Some tweaks, but mainly added a small feature where if you die, you sometimes leave behind a small pile of bones, leaving the chamber looking like this after a few tries.
#SteamNextFest very soon, play the demo today already?

Hey, Thanks! That's exactly it, I played BD in the 80s, and now I'm making my own spin on the basic idea, but obviously tweaked for my grown-up sensibilities.
