Hey,
Welcome to the first announcement for CrabbleUp!
You will be able to find CrabbleUp on the upcoming Endless Replayability Fest (starting on 13th May), and the Steam Next Fest (starting on 10th June). If you can't wait till then, you can try out the Demo version today!
Demo
The Demo is a modified version of the first chapter of the full game, with more content and more challenges than usual. The pacing was increased to give you a better view on what can you expect from the full game, but in a limited time. If you find it too hard, don't worry, the full game lets you learn the skills and tricks in a more relaxed manner.
Current release
This release also brings you the v0.10.0 version (the first one published on Steam), which added:
- New enemies (some of them are part of the demo).
- Color variations, and better shadows for all enemies.
- Hardware-accelerated drawing using OpenGL.
- Translation and font fixes.
- Lots of crash fixes, and stability improvements.
You can check out the "What is the current state of the Early Access version?" section under the Early Access block on the store page to learn about all the already implemented features.
What's next?
The following releases will incrementally add a lot of new content, like more enemy types and new bosses. There will be also difficulty options, achievements, extra game modes, and more. You can check out the store page for a detailed roadmap.
I am planning to release v1.0.0 in 2024, but being a solo dev doesn't guarantee I will have enough time to finish all of my ideas, while I can promise to try my best.
