I Am Overburdened, two steps forward, one step back.

Hi everyone!

As the title suggests progress has been made, but I took a really bumpy road to get here. I'm done with a new update, but even though I mentioned around two weeks multiple times, it took more than a month :/

Big-ish? Or lots of small-ish?

I wanted to release some of the new goodies of the…

I Am Overburdened, a trail of broken dreams.

Hello there!

Not much news on my front, but I'm doing game development (at least some, sort-of) and I'm still alive ?

Where have you been?

I disappeared for a looong time from the online world and from I Am Overburdened development. I really wanted to continue releasing updates for the game, but I was…

I Am Overburdened, what is to come

Hi there!

Been pretty much out of touch with the online world in the last few weeks. So I guess it is time to break the silence with an I Am Overburdened update and some news about the expansion ?!

The update

Showcasing version 1.2.7. will be short as it is a refinement build. Nothi…

I Am Overburdened, looney tuning

Hello there!

Time for one last small update before I go into full promotion mode regarding the new I Am Overburdened expansion pack

Update

The new 1.2.6. version is more of a refinement over the existing stuff, but it packs a lovely change which I hope receives a warm welcome.

I Am Overburdened, optimize prime

Hi everyone!

Here comes a not so spectacular, but hopefully funny update for I Am Overburdened. As the name suggest version 1.2.5. is way more swift than the previous one, plus it is equipped with a nasty new trick to terrorize players

I Am Overburdened, cracks showing

frequentHello everyone!

This entry will be a bit more personal and full of rambling about game development in real life and how come making a tiny bug-fix update for a game takes a whole month. Stay awhile, because if you can put up with my whining, you are going to read some real advice

I Am Overburdened, experience tidbits

Hi there!

So it came to pass, that only a tiny update gets completed within two weeks while working on another way bigger project
Hopefully, the user interface enhancements in I Am Overburdened version 1.2.3. will be appreciated still.

Hello everyone,

I Am Overburdened, where have I been?

Hello everyone!

It’s been a while since my last I Am Overburdened update and I haven’t posted anything online for more than a month now. In this post I’ll showcase the changes in the latest version which went live today and I’ll go into what happened to me.

I Am Overburdened, recap and numbers

Hi everyone!

It has been more than two months since I released I Am Overburdened and since I wrote a devlog entry. Please accept my apology for this, I was super busy with the release and support of the game. But now I’m back with an in-depth analysis how the overall production and final numbers tur…

I Am Overburdened, it’s alive!

Hello there!

In the big sprint towards publishing this game I forgot to update my blog with a proper release announcement . I had to split myself in millions to actually finish the game and put it out there, but still, silly me how could I forget .

Takeaway: I have to prepare better fo…

I Am Overburdened, so close, yet so far...

Hello there!

This is going to be a painful post for me, but I got to do it ...

TLDR:
I had to postpone the release of I Am Overburdened by a little more than a week, to the 2nd of November !

That is the Steam workshop page. The build is approved, only a press of a button would…

I Am Overburdened, striving for balance

Hello there!

I'm still alive and working on the game so I jump right into what I worked on in the last month or so. Even though I was pretty silent a lot has "changed". The topic will be polishing, because it never stops , some input handling tricks and another pretty complex one: game bala…

KREEP, missed tap.

Hello everyone!

In my last post about Operation KREEP, I mentioned that for the 1.2 update of the game I made some improvements to the input handling logic and hinted a near future deep-dive into this topic. Quite a while ago, right …

KREEP, input is king!

Hi there!

I'm not going to go into a big yakking this time about the obvious again. Summarizing: still not advancing as planned and my online presence is still far from adequate, but the update I've been working on is "finished". Finished in the sense, that I've added all the features, fixes…

I Am Overburdened, light at the end of the tunnel

Hi everyone!

I took my time again to make this new post, but I was really occupied with life and stuff and took approximately two weeks off from work (got married <3 + been pretty sick for a week ). Last week was only spent on polish and adding "extra" features, so it is only a matter of…

I Am Overburdened, quality over quantity

Hi there!

Where was I for a month again and what’s up with the title?! Many friends already asked this and other difficult questions like “I planned to finish this game in 4 months and I’ve been working on it for 6 now” or “Last month you kind-of promised to have an open beta and a complete …

I am Overburdened, what takes so long?!

Hello everyone!

I've been pretty silent for a while again...
I really dislike this, because I'm usually open and post a lot about my progress, but sometimes it just slows down and I end up in a spiral of "awkwardness", when I'm not progressing too much and I really don't want to talk about that :mell…

I am overburdened, back among the living

Hi there, long time no see!

Last month was rather chaotic for me. After a lengthy Easter vacation a nasty flu forced me to spend almost a week in bed, and overall the progress on "I am overburdened" was dreadfully slow up until last week. That is why I had no energy and not much drive to write new p…

Hello everyone!

Tiny post with lot of pics this time. Last week I worked on the original sprites of the game and progressed steadily. Far from finished with every piece but a huge portion is done!

KREEP, apples and penguins.

Hi everyone!

Haven't written for months now about Operation KREEP. It is time to revisit this old buddy bud bud of mine!
Yes, as the title suggest, it is cross-platform time :wink: ...

Not official, but soon...

Nope, sadly no official release yet :( , but the Linux build is ready and tested (at least o…
