Inglo Games

I love seeing peoples early work, can we try on this instance?

Here's my first "real" game, made in and published to Itch in early 2019. It's a basic puzzle game but I was (am) happy with the random puzzle generator portion! I even ported it to Android and still play it occasionally on my phone.

@IngloGamesDev sounds like fun! Here's the first game I ever made - a Zelda-like top down adventure game, made in 5 weeks and inspired by the story of the ET game for Atari 2600

It's strange, and messy, and full of weird thematic choices I don't remember the reasoning behind, but it felt great to make something I could play!

@NotJam I like it! The puzzles where you have to get the ranged enemies to hit the switches feel interesting without being tedious.

@IngloGamesDev Thanks! Was a big learning experience for me, and a lot of fun to make :)

Dollar Shuffle was fantastic - some really tricky puzzles later on!

@IngloGamesDev I'm down for , I love seeing people's old stuff! This was my first game from 2009ish.
Back in Gamemaker 7/8 and published on YoYoGames. A "puzzle" platformer with a horrible scrolling background lol.
Sadly not playable anymore since the site shut down, but I saved the .gmk file for myself.

@IngloGamesDev Here is mine, from way back in 2018. A little RTS.

I'd just started using in my personal projects and found @technomancy 's great blog post on how to make games with and fennel that you can modify / design while running.
