I have given an accurate, but slightly misleading, description of my new game here: "The DROD Killer" April 1st article.

On Sunday 4/7 at 3pm PST, I will live-demo a super-early version of the game running right off the dev machine. Will take chat questions if you have them. You can use the link below to join on Sunday.

All April-foolerism aside, I think this will be an exciting game for DROD players. It has many elements in it that I wanted to put into DROD, but couldn't, because we needed a new game to do them right.

Okay, I decided it would work better to stream from Twitch than Youtube. Will preview my new game, The Godkiller, at the URL below, Sunday 4/7 3pm PST.

Not at Youtube. At Twitch. Because Twitch is showing my stream at significantly higher video quality. Not that I'm angry at Youtube. It is miraculous that these things are even possible.

Just 15 minutes ago I had an idea that I think will work pretty great for the stream today. (Or not--we'll see.)

I'll make one puzzle level in The Godkiller and let people in chat give direction on how to solve it. Will go over the game elements first so people can see how the game works.

Excited, excited, excited! I might be kind of annoying with my manic updates.

The preview stream was great! We had some high quality chat conversation with some forum regulars, and yeah, I demo'd GK. We group-solved a level, found an unintended solution, and fixed it right there on the spot.

Here's the archive, if you are keen to check it out:

The streaming events are going to continue every Sunday (link below in my sig). But unlike this first demo stream, they will be focused on live coding and other dev tasks. Will describe that over on the "Development Board" where it's more appropriate.

I wasn't able to attend live but enjoyed watching the recording. I like how the game is shaping up and how many ideas you've had in mind are now coming to fruition!

Hrm...is there something wrong with me that I can't get "godk iller" out of my mind?

It's not even a very original pun! It's basically a worse version of "gunk iller" from homestar runner.
