Currently mostly making games in Godot, although I did use GameMaker Studio 1.49999 and Unity in the past. Not planning to work on new game projects for now but I could consider joining in the future in case you will be still looking for programming help.

Mostly asking for curiosity but what is your team size currently? Also, are you open for programmers that have experience with earlier version of the engine or other engines? Thanks for the potential answers and wish you luck with the project there!

No problem! From what I seen on your youtube channel, you have a great art, so hope you get some clients there.

Thanks for the reply! I have one project that I am doing solo that is currently on hold, so if I would come back to it and you would be still looking for a project to work on, I would be open to cooperation, two coders is sure faster than just one. For now though, I wish you good luck out there!

Thanks a lot for the answer! Will keep that in mind in case I would be looking for services like yours. Good luck out there!

Little question - what team size do you prefer? Are you open to work with solo dev or do you rather prefer to work in a big group? Also, since you say you feel you would like to come back to writing C/C++ code, how comfortable are you with GDScript?

Just asking for curiosity - are you only looking for Visual Novels projects or are you open to other game genres?

I imagine the project has went pretty far since the time this post was made but what game genre you were actually trying to make? Like visual novel, platformer or maybe RPG?

Wanted to comment on this post since it seems every link outside your Youtube one had 403 error. Worth fixing it if you want people to have easier look at your portfolio. Cheers!

Didn't know you had struggles with making the games for results rather than enjoyment of the process but glad to hear you came to a conclusion to take things back a bit and put way less pressure on yourself on "making next big thing" and rather focusing on doing what you want to do and what you would like to.

Hope you will have lots of good time with future projects!

That actually was in works (we even had assets for that), but we didn't manage to implement all of the features programming wise.

Well, that's sure some good start

Hi there! I am, alongside with an artist, looking for team members for an upcoming Multiplayer Game Jam. Our idea is to make a co-op puzzle game with a steampunk aesthetic. Gameplay wise, players have two unique roles to fulfill – the Builder, which creates blocks with different functionality (to name a few: jump increase, sticking something up or activating a mechanism). And the Transporter, an agile character which main function is to move or throw up those blocks to a desired place. There is quite some time before the jam starts, but we’ve already started refining our idea so we have a clear vision of what we want to make. That includes some good concept art (big shout-out to the aforementioned artist, you did a great job Riko!), which you will be able to see in the examples below. If you are interested in our project and you think you could help out, please feel free to write a message with your response!

Yeah, I agree that game would need to have quite some polish to be something more than a prototype (plus some further balancing, since the reason why game ends so quick is because attacks deal quite amount of damage). In terms of W/S, I probably made some mistake in code, so thanks for the info!

Oh I see, then I missed that look sensitivity option weirdly, thanks!

Pretty good and interesting platformer! Visual wise, it's simple but really nice and later on, it gets even better. Maybe time slowing mechanic never felt necessary and it didn't had any use but I still appreciate putting it. If there was something I really would point out then it would be platform placement - sometimes, despite that definitely you could put a platform, that option was blocked. New platforms which you could use after first level also didn't have a reason to be used - base blocks were everything you needed for the whole game. In terms of enemy balance, bees were quite annoying to deal with and I think something like enemy erasement could make it more fun experience.

In the end, that was quite a good product - congrats for the team!

So I have few points. First, music is quite nice and game looks nice. I see that there were some neat ideas but sadly I didn't either managed to get into them or they weren't implemented. I would have some gameplay issues (played on Windows build btw), though I want to point out there first that while I was playing, my graphic card was used to the max (GeForce GTX 1050Ti) so they may or may not be related to that. 

So first - movement. At least in my case, it was very, very slow and spriting was only a bit faster, it still took ages to move from one location to another. This game also lacked sensitivity options for mouse - I literally needed to move my mouse across half of my desk to actually make the camera move, so I really had a need to change that but well, game didn't allow me to.

Respects for the work.

Interesting game. It didn't maybe follow main topic of the jam that much (no time related mechanic, just a timer) but I need to say that you definitely spent quite some time to make attack patterns interesting. Still, I would say not every of them were balanced correctly. Like for example following turret - since it shoots in random directions, you often get into a situation where there is no room to dodge and you lose your life. Spiky attack pattern with no turret can also make some troubles, since there is not a lot of time to move between patterns and because of that, when single spear is launched on the player, it often hits them, since they haven't moved from their last position too much. I liked much more standing turrets since even if we count the example where we have shooting in random directions, there is much more place for dodging attacks. In terms of spear throwining from the sides patterns, they could have a bit more cooldown between them or they would fly a bit slower - sometimes you may just not notice that you are in a perfect place to get killed.

That's all I would have to say about the game. It was still, quite interesting experience.

It happens to all of us, good it was only menu :v

Pretty nice puzzle game! Time moving when you are in light seems like interesting mechanic to build up after the jam. It was sometimes hard to tell if platform is already on the edge of another or not, but other than that, it was a good experience - visuals and gameplay were rather simple but very nice. Music in the background definitely add some additional fun factor and haven't seen any bug, though I couldn't get past the wall after shooting room and there was no lever to switch.

Your welcome and congrats for making quite nice game in a duo!

No problem. Still congrats for the work!

Till then!

Gameplay wise, it's rather a simple idea but I like it. It definitely could be awesome if it would get more maps and different types of enemies plus removal of the knockback from bullets - I don't really think it's needed for this game and doesn't really serve anything.

I would say that idea behind the game is pretty nice. I liked how you would gather clues and could write your own notes, plus the dialogue was actually on quite good level. Graphics wise, I liked the idea that outside dialogue sprites had that paper feel to them, though I would say that the sketchiness of dialogue portraits doesn't fit that much to them, though it's not that big of a deal. Thing that sadly didn't let me finish the game and enjoy fully, was well-known by you bug, where game gets softlocked and you cannot do anything with it. I stumbled on it many, too many times (mostly when going to the room with light control) and the worst that I often stumbled on it when I had gathered the most of evidence and I practically lost all my progress just to start again, which was sad really, since I wanted to finish it. Depsite that, it was still enjoyable experience.

Okay, let's talk a bit about this game. So I definitely like it for creativity, but main mechanic kinda isn't explained during the game by any tutorial, so I ended up stuck at 7th level since the so far knowledge I had about it didn't let me complete it at all (you supposed to go on the other side by jumping on it in correct moment, but the jump itself is to small and there are no boxes to jump on). I feel if I would been given a proper tutorial, I would be able to understand it. So yeah, the biggest flaw I would point out is lack of the explanation of the main mechanic. Other than that, blurry menu fonts kinda break the good look of the game, something probably went wrong with scaling.

Anyway, even if I didn't complete it fully, I would say you still did a good game.

Respects for using engineless Java, though to be honest, I had no idea what I could do in the game, other than move left and right and speed up/slow down time, unless that's the whole thing you have, then well, hopefully your project will grow bigger.

Not a lot to play with but idea itself seems promising, so if you are thinking if you should explore that idea futher, I would say to go with it. Alas, it would be also a good idea to switch menu from french to english, though it's not thaaaaat problematic.

This prologue was quite outstanding on its own - while the gameplay itself was very simple (no choices or complicated mechanics yet) the game really made the experience worthwhile thanks to its art and music. Artwise, it combines two completely different styles, both of which are exceptionally well done  (I particularly enjoyed looking at the backgrounds), although it's a bit hard to tell whether they clash or not - the difference in resolutions (between the sprites and the background) can be offputting. Now when it comes to music it's hard to tell anything else but good words - it was very climatic and pleasant to listen to, I was genuinely surprised by it. These two elements work quite well for the story, which may feel like it has been done before (framed for murder, going back in time to solve a mystery etc.) but it leaves many open possibilities to surprise and entertain the player. Overall, it's a very promising start to the full game.

Overall a good game. Story was simple, but you can tell the team put effort into it. Background art was very pleasant but the main characters were a bit too quiet in comparison to some of the background ones or the music. Really liked David's appearance (and his voice) though. Also props to the merchant. In terms of technicality, the only thing I spotted was this line of Lena's missing a voiceover (attached screenshot). 

Yeah, the biggest flaw of this project is lack of animation for attacks (didn't make assets for that in time), that would definitely make this more readable. Thanks for the input!

Oh yes, definitely. A lot of polishing will need to be done, especially with battle, lack of animations kinda makes this feel chaotic. Thanks for your input!

It's a pretty nice platformer game but weird physics make this game a bit glitchier than it should be. The problem there is that character sticks to the surface, rather than land on it (when character jumps forward, surface, like a magnet, tries to pull on him and that results in a weird glitches like getting stuck in air, depsite not even touching the celling in more tight spaces). Even despite those weird physics, game was really enjoyable and respects for making gathering skills like in Metroid, nice reference.

Awesome puzzle adventure. Very creative approach to the topic of jam (manipulating with system clock is mostly used only once but here we have the whole game based on that idea and I love it). While I got the ending, I still have no clue about a puzzle with "odd and then even" hour, so if there is a secret there, I probably missed it but I am satisfied with what I have seen.

Very smooth and fleshy hack and slash. While technicality wise it needs some work (sometimes key doesn't drop from enemy, level generation screw up and doesn't make exit), it really does amazing with gameplay - the only thing that I would probably criticise there would be bullets appearing from nowhere (sometimes when creating a new level, the bullet is already leaning towards player and if they don't stop time, they are dead on start) and that those bullets don't necessary come from one type of enemy and appear randomly from all enemies (even wall can start shooting at you, though I don't know if it isn't a bug). But yeah, gameplay wise, you done awesome job and that was so far the best action game I might have played so far on this jam.

Good prototype. Cannot judge too much of a gameplay here (it's rather a showcase) but the mechanic itself seems pretty interesting to meddle with, if that ever turns into fleshed game, I think it would be pretty awesome.

Great platformer! Maybe I didn't complete that one level most didn't complete, but I enjoyed the platforming and the way you handled your mechanics. It was a good experience.

Promising game! While there isn't much of an use of game mechanics yet, they are done well (though there is a bug that time rewind can result in your character moving to previous level or outside map, resulting completely black screen). Controls are simple and great for platformer game. Hope you will continue the project after the jam. Good luck!

Creative metroidvania game! Kinda lacked jump control (I don't want to always want to jump so high and boy, the protagonist jumps higher than any bug or bunny) but was a nice experience. Dunno why no matter what I did, I always got the supposedly bad ending, no matter how many abilities and if I get the secret item or not. But anyway, I think the game in the end was pretty solid - great job!

Awesome game! Creative approach to main topic of the jam - didn't expect anyone to use it a horror game. Plus congrats for getting your game noticed outside the jam!
