Making a Game You Play... WITH A CRANK???

jesus christ why all of the sudden changes in music

[@PossiblyAxolotl]

I'm trying something new with this video, it's clearly not perfect yet lol

[@kesha2293]

Just found out about your channel from a jschlatt short, wanted to say that as I somewhat coder myself I find your videos really inspiring and very well made! Your content deserves a way bigger audience, keep it up king! Love from Russia

Thank you!!

@@domedin9894 agreed

[@kesha2293]

Absolutely agreed, this shouldve gotten more views

[@WillKlein]

LOL that everyone thought they'd make a fishing game so no one made a fishing game. I really dig this devlog, great editing, I like the music credits on the bottom, and kudos for making a level editor for your game as part of the game!

[@PossiblyAxolotl]

Thank you! I'm super proud of the game and this video so I'm glad you like it

[@SquidGodDev]

Congrats on the release Axolotl!! Installing it on my Playdate right now :) Glad that there's finally some other Playdate devlogs out there - it was super fun to watch.

[@SquidGodDev]

Just played some of it - it's really fun. Probably one of the most fun games I've played on the Playdate so far. Super challenging though! The acceleration speed is crazy! The rotating spike performance hit wasn't really noticeable btw, so nice job on the optimizations.

[@PossiblyAxolotl]

Glad you enjoyed it! It’s definitely pretty tough, I am especially not good at gauging difficulty in my own games 😅. Also glad there weren’t too many performance hits with the spinners, I think it was more with the amount of sprites rather than the math

[@jaranfo_OFFICIAL]

Should've seen my face when I saw you only has 2.5k subs, you deserver way better. The editing is so well done!

[@PossiblyAxolotl]

LMAO thanks :)

[@corruptedroblox9020]

your editing is very good for a small youtuber. Hope you reach 10k subs

[@PossiblyAxolotl]

Thank you! I put a lot of work into the editing :)

[@HrabiaKaczula]

That was hilarious. I have to get your game when I finally put my hands on PlayDate in 2047

[@PossiblyAxolotl]

Thank you! That’s only.. a few.. years… away…

[@BLANKdev]

I absolutely love this thing, so jealous you got one this is awesome stuff! Cant wait to see more!

[@PossiblyAxolotl]

Thanks so much! I have many more ideas for this and some other things as well

[@patolander01]

This video is awesome, very good points! Looking forward to play the game, congratulations on the release!

[@PossiblyAxolotl]

Thank you!! I hope you enjoy

[@MightyJor]

This is epic! Looks like so much fun to make a game for this…if it wasn’t so expensive I’d probably pick one up and play around with it .)

[@PossiblyAxolotl]

It was fun! sadly the price is definitely a big problem but luckily the tools are free for anyone to use

[@admiralrex69]

Amazing video bro!Hope you gain More Subs Fast You really deserve em!

[@PossiblyAxolotl]

Hope so too. Thank you!!

[@LolaliciousSmiley]

This guy made custom wrapping paper and a SICK custom transition. The sound cuts out for me in the later levels after a few deaths or so. The level select order is all confused. Great game.

[@PossiblyAxolotl]

Yeah not sure why the music cuts but I’m working to fix it and sadly I can’t really fix the select order cause that’s a problem with the Play date SDK itself. Thanks tho!

[@redhatbonnie]

We need more from this channel

[@PossiblyAxolotl]

Don’t worry, I’m working on something cool!
