  7. In the beginning of the game, your mother warns you not to lose your starting artifact, the Stardust Pendant.
    I'm SURE this isn't foreshadowing anything.

  12. Old school games require old school secrets.
    In Gunhawk for NES, you can continue from a Game Over by holding the A button when pressing Start.

  20. I updated the main menu of options for the Steam version of Fire And Rescue.
    My first job in games was implementing menus, so it's kind of nostalgic to jump back into this sort of work.

  21. Some caves in Even Goblins Fall In Love are quite dark. Remember to bring a torch with you just in case.

  22. While Even Goblins Fall In Love is a love-letter to old-school JRPGs like Dragon Quest, it does include some modern kindness in its design. For example, if you are defeated in battle, you can retry the battle from the beginning.

  23. A town inside a dungeon? Something strange is going on in Even Goblins Fall In Love's final dungeon.

  24. A strange creature approaches and stares at you unblinkingly. It is an Eyeful, one of the many creatures you may encounter in Even Goblins Fall In Love.

  25. You can, of course, use magical keys to open doors. But, you can also use them to instantly defeat Mimic-type enemies in Even Goblins Fall In Love.

  26. This is a reminder of all the small bits of work that go into making a game work "as expected." I just had to write a bit of code to prevent a player from constantly re-opening the confirmation dialog while the game fades out the screen to quit the game.

  27. One of Lin's signature tools is the Stardust Pendant they receive from their mother. This pendant will let them re-roll a limited number of times in combat to score critical hits or evade enemy attacks.

  28. I implemented some new UI based on my mockups to provide menus for my game that hopefully strike a balance of being attractive while not over-powering the game itself. My first inclination was to try something with an explictly 8-bit aesthetic, but it felt too on-the-nose for me.

  29. Testing out the final boss of Even Goblins Fall In Love and it totally smoked my test player.

  30. A Mimic is a classic staple of fantasy games. You open up a chest expecting to find gold coins and instead encounter malevolent eyes and a horrid, grasping tongue.

  31. In Even Goblins Fall In Love, if you need a rest and can't afford an inn, you can always go back to your mother's home to rest.
