Nobody escapes the disco floor.

"Your game looks too much like hot garbage" The game, which is 100% hot garbage:

Trampolines now bounce you proportional to your velocity.

In our wizard game, you can use the basic spell for all sorts of important wizard hijinks, including pushing students over (gently, of course), moving items around, opening containers, and much more!

We've made advances in spy tech.

Bit of gamedev magic. The page flipping in Exiled is actually just a bunch of models that I turn on and off quickly to LOOK like a page flipping. It's possible to get a similar effect with plugins but this was the easier option.

I've been working on spider enemies and oh my goodness their ragdolls are making me sick to my stomach.

I've been redoing the Wizard Boy AI and at some point corpses started moving around and attacking on their own and it's really unsettling.

Wizard Boy early access is coming next month! We've redone the whole castle (with new areas), added spells, expanded on mechanics, and most importantly, you can now use students as potion ingredients. Wishlist to get notified when it releases!

I swear I can't add anything into this game without it just exploding.

Beta testing feedback for Wizard Boy has led to some very interesting discoveries. Wishlist below!

Wizard Boy 1.1 is RELEASED!!! We've got upgrades, missions, an inventory, lots of visual updates, the Spy Lair, and more! TIME TO GET WIZARD. (Full writeup posted below.)

The Secret Agent Wizard Boy demo is RELEASED! Enjoy being a wizard nuisance. (Demo also has multiplayer btw) Link below!

Surprise free game! I took ten games made for the game jam I co-ran with Jacksepticeye and put them into a collection together. Go take a look and let the developers know what your favorite games are! It means a lot to them. :) Link below. Again, totally free!

Surprise! The Wizard Boy "Spring Cleaning Update" is now LIVE! Prop collecting, prop possessing, broom flying, head spinning, new missions, new gadgets, and lots more. If you're on the public testing branch, there's even an in-progress version of our new big castle to explore.

This isn't really my normal Twitter content, but I'm going to start posting stuff on shortform video places and I put a lot of work into this first one so I thought I'd post here too. :) Development updates coming soon!

Another one of the shortform vids I made! If you have good Dopelo clips, post them below.

This is a video about fixing a DIRE issue in Wizard Boy that is actually just a way to convince you to purchase Wizard Boy while it is discounted for the Steam Spring sale.

I am releasing this game in a day and a half. Please be kind in the reviews.

Early Access for Secret Agent Wizard Boy IS RELEASED! Wizard sandbox mayhem for singleplayer or coop (?) multiplayer. Full of secrets, exploration, and mystery. And a lot of stupidness. For sale for $7.99 for launch! :) Link below! GO GET UNDERCOVER!

ANYWAY, here's the new mechanic. I've added a system that detects if it's possible to create a stack on top of another object, making it a lot easier (read: possible) to make tall stacks of random objects.

After a long time coming, I have finally added prop possession into Wizard Boy! It's also implemented in a super duper janky way that I thought would make a good video. (I really need to find someone to do engine work for me.)

In response to GOTY contender Expedition 33 coming out, here's footage of MY game being played. (Sound on)

Experimenting with some "floor is lava" sort of stuff.

My Friendly Neighborhood 2 YEAR ANNIVERSARY ANNOUNCEMENTS! FIRSTLY, MFN is released on Xbox One, Xbox Series, and Gamepass RIGHT NOW! Available either with Gamepass Ultimate or directly from the store. (More announcements below!)

SPIN SPIN SPIN!

Some of the best streaming clips from the first week of Wizard Boy.
