TapNet3D - Dev Log

EDIT: Links fixed.

A long time ago, I started working on a puzzle game for iOS. I even presented it to Steven and Cabel, but alas, Panic wasn’t interested in games… so here we are all this time later doing code jams to get it running on the Playdate!

I sometimes am doing work on Twitch, if anyone is interested in watching, chatting, laughing, crying.

Have an early debug video:

a direct working link would be appreciated !

That's our fault, the spam protection system in Discourse doesn't want "New User" accounts posting links. I've bumped Cryo to "Regular" and here's that video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KVDR2AN-gNY Looks really cool!

Thanks for the bump!

what’s the game purpose?

To make me a multi-millionaire.

or power all of the pieces… but probably just pass butter.

Another dev demo… getting more polish and shine on it, but even I suck at times on it. lol.

Here’s just the demo showing off the game.. (it’s long and boring at times, but I didn’t feel like editing it, and this is still very much in progress… and if you’re a fan of the DVD bouncing logo, you can feel that when the DEMO is trying to solve the last part.

I get about 20-25 fps on the Playdate when it’s doing everything (backgrounds, shading… etc). I haven’t added music yet. There’s still some rendering glitches.

So tell me what you think!
