Original postHi!
The day has finally come, I hope you can enjoy every part of Power Solenoid.This was the result of so many memories, games, movies, books, music, food and love for everything that exist as things that make our lives so much better, giving us good times and sometimes a challenge.
It was a long trip and I'm really glad of how all came togheter, it feels like the game has a soul of its own that was being revealed as I was working on it, game development is so strange sometimes.
One of the best things to finish a game is that another one comes after, and it has already begun, I'm really happy with how ideas are taking shape and I hope you can find out more soon.
Until next game.

Original postHey!
This is me, just checking you're still there, waiting for Power Solenoid.
As you maybe or may not know, closing or finishing a game is kinda tough, so much stuff to tie into one package that needs to be everything that I wanted to be as I was working on it.
Yes, the game keeps building itself as I keep working on it and it seems like the finish line is extending.
But it isn't something to worry, it's kinda fun to keep working on something like this that it feels like Mad Men, I don't want it to end (you should watch Man Men).
I can't recall if I explained somewhere how Power Solenoid is built but here it is:
Power Solenoid has 3 worlds, each world has several gameplay levels, Bosses, Minibosses, Glidehawk and Goblin levels, minigames and secrets.
Right now, World 2 is close to be complete. All the levels are made (and if you want to know more, all of them have one pass polish state meaning: need more playtesting to make them more enjoyable).
I have so many ideas for Goblins and stuff that Rockhound and the players can discover that it would be wise to leave some of them out of the game for the sake of finishing it. Again, it's not that I'm not enjoying the process but some other games that are in development also want time from me and I want to work on them.
As a small bite, on this post you can see a screenshot of the Platinum Visa Cosmic Cash Credit Card custom made for Rockhound, an item that Rockhound must use to get stuff from Goblins and vendors.
This works as a credit card, some Goblins won't accept Gems so you must pay with your Visa. This won't consume your gems immediately but if days gone by and you don't pay your credit card who knows what can happen. What do you think?

Power Solenoid Demo on the Steam Next Fest 2023
Hi! I'm Jupitron! Nice to meet you. I've been doing games for some time but new to Steam, hopefully the first of many (don't tell anyone but there's at least 3 more games coming to Steam, made in 3D). This is a really cool moment for me, I've using Steam as a player for a long ti
Original postHi! I'm Jupitron! Nice to meet you.
I've been doing games for some time but new to Steam, hopefully the first of many (don't tell anyone but there's at least 3 more games coming to Steam, made in 3D).
This is a really cool moment for me, I've using Steam as a player for a long time and having my videogame feels surreal.
Power Solenoid is a quick action/adventure game like the ones in the old days, no skill trees, no upgrades (though Cosmic Glasses can be counted as upgrades won't be mandatory to finish the game as in real life, you use sunglasses for coolness points, hehe), NO MICROTRANSACTIONS, NO LOOT BOXES, NO BATTLEPASS, NO ONLINE, no nothing.
Just play the game for fun.
And that's kinda tough, I mean, games are really addictive these days and some of them are amazing.
But what about playing with no rush, only going through the game, enjoying every part of it, with no critic eye and no "this games needs what that other game does to be better"?
Yeah, Power Solenoid is a lot of games, but purely is the search for something fresh and the fun of making something that I love. To you.
So I really hope you can enjoy Rockhound's adventure just for the sake of having a good time.
Send me some words if you have them.
Love
J
