yeah, my first five games + kinda Qabara the Artist are all part of the same series. not a ton of continuity, but it's easier than having to invent new characters for each game lol

of course! game preservation is so important!

oh god, i feel like i just found a cursed secret mode in Game Boy Camera. love the art direction!

it's super monkey ball, hold the ball! A+ audio work

to be fair, I feel like humans in the music industry probably get treated the same way

glad to hear it all worked as intended! If I do a post-jam update, maybe I'll change the coloring on the scroll bar for more contrast.

Glad you enjoyed it! the invisible green screen bass was a nice touch. Sounds like we have a similar understand of musical theory for bass, lol

Hey!

After several years of mostly  releasing smaller free projects on itch, I've finally released a big one: Qabara The Artist (https://yossarianiii.itch.io/qabara-the-artist)

It's an adventure game where you play as a very anxious 9-year-old artist who wants to paint her masterpiece before she turns 10. Basically, you just explore the world and examining certain items or completing certain tasks will earn you inspiration that can help you level up to the next artistic plateau. 

The game is short — you could finish it in one sitting — but it's also dense, with multiple solutions to puzzles and hidden storylines.

To celebrate the main character's fear of turning 10, the game is 10% off for the first two weeks after launch.

Trailer here: 

Thanks to everyone here who has helped support my previous stuff!

Sincerely,

Yoss

Thanks for playing! It's always fun seeing people randomly stumble onto old games. Also, wow, can't believe this game is over 7 years old. If it was a kid, it'd be learning multiplication by now.

Thanks for playing! Yeah, it's a tough balance. I do think a rougher art style absolutely works better for some types of writing and would never want to discourage someone from trying a rougher style for themselves. And there are actually a handful games with extremely janky art styles that blew up (Cruelty Squad and Goat Simulator are two that come to mind, lol). It does seem, though, like most current game discovery platforms put the most emphasis on screenshots and gifs, where glossier art tends to have the advantage.

Thanks for playing!! Sorry the pen doesn't allow you to write, haha!

Thanks for playing! I always like watching people discover that last ending you found, haha

Sure, no problem!

My guess is you're missing one of the broken foot endings. First you have to break it by kicking the fridge too much. If you immediately try to run away, you'll get one broken foot ending, and if you hit the fridge with a hammer 6 or 7 times (while the foot is already broken), you'll get a different one. 

Awesome! Thanks for taking the time to review it!

Thanks for playing!

Thanks for downloading!! Yeah, I’m also originally from PA and have spent a lot of time in all those places.  Thought they’d be an interesting and unexpected setting for something like this. Best of luck with your YouTube channel!

Thanks!!

Sorry for the problems! I just emailed a free download key to the email address associated with your PayPal. You could try to send the payment directly (it's konolgames at gmail), but honestly if it doesn't work, it's no big deal! 

cool! Just let me know if you have any problems 

Hi Metaparadox! I checked my paypal account, and it says your payment did go through but was then refunded. Itch isn’t showing the purchase of the game on my end either.  If you did get refunded, maybe just try again? If not, let me know, and I’ll see if there’s anything I can do.

thanks for playing!! Loved the stop-motion bits in the middle. 

Thanks for playing! Glad you enjoyed it!!

Thanks for playing!!

Thanks for playing!

Thanks! Working on a fix...

Thanks for playing!! Also, congrats on being I think the first streamer to reach the end. The speed run time to beat is now 11:47!

Ahaha, sorry, the game definitely glitched on you. (You're supposed to be able to press all the buttons, not just that one.) My bad. 

Thanks for playing, though! Can I ask what you played it on (Windows, Mac, etc.)?

Thanks for playing! 

❤️

Thanks for playing it!

Glad you enjoyed it! Yes, I’ve been hearing from a lot of people that the same thing has happened to them at some point. Food is just too loud!!

Thanks for playing!! Loved the parts of the video when it cut to a dramatic close-up!

oh shit, I guess a literal million people have now seen this game. Thanks for letting me know about the video!

Sorry, wish I could help, but if what I mentioned in the previous post doesn't work, I'm not sure what else to try... I've had the same issue with other games when I'm trying to download them on spotty internet. Usually deleting the file and re-downloading will fix it.

:-)

Sorry, not sure what the problem would be... have you tried deleting the file and downloading it again? Sometimes that works. Or it might be your computer’s security settings: sometimes you can get around that by right-clicking and choosing Open. Hope this helps!

Thanks for playing!! Yeah, anyone who plays after watching this video is definitely in for a surprise!

Thanks so much! I'm glad you enjoyed playing it!!

Thanks for playing!! I always enjoy seeing how people react to the mudslide part!

Are you on Mac or PC?

Sometimes if it doesn't open, you can download a new copy and it will.

Or depending on your computer's security settings, you might have to right-click and choose open.
