Melkhior’s Tower is a game I’m currently developing exclusively for Playdate using the C SDK, and is a spin-off of my PC/Linux/Mac game Melkhior’s Mansion which was released back in January 2022. It’s not a straight conversion, it’s a different game.

I’ve recently started a dev log, so I’ve created this thread to post news of any updates. The dev log is hosted on Itch at: https://bitglint.itch.io/melkhiors-tower-playdate

Here’s a link to the YouTube playlist of videos that I’ve uploaded so far: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLfcGeKZDeV5tNq4fNkl96Dh64jtLi11Vt

If you’re interested in seeing how the project progresses then please watch this space. :slightly_smiling_face:

That looks amazing! Thanks for sharing it with us! You mentioned that the game was developed in C? That’s cool and maybe you could try using Golang language instead of C next time. I think it might make managing everything a bit simpler :slight_smile:

Heimdall was so great. “Here, have a keg of ale, now throw this axe at that person, try not to hit ‘em!” :joy:

It looks fantastic, right up my street, but it’s one of those games that passed me by for some reason.
