Speer Preview Released

Posted November 22, 2017

A new preview build of [Speer] is now up for you to play on itch.io!

This one is in beta status, meaning it almost reflects the final game design-wise. Note however that this preview only contains 20 stages, while the final game will have 100. Also, the final game will of course have even more puzzles, gimmicks and hazards! This downloadable build is only meant to whet your appetite a bit and to get me feedback so I can make some final adjustments before the game goes on sale.

Want to help out?

There is something simple you can do to help me out if you feel like it. When you play [Speer], a file called stats.log will be created in the same folder as the executable. This file contains info on your playtime which will help me fine-tune the game. (I’ve kept it in plain text by the way, so that you can see what you’re sending me. I would of course ask you not to change any of the data…) So if you could send me this file after you’re done playing you would really help me out a lot! You can either send it via email to ando@ohsat.com or post it to a site like pastebin.

I know it’s a bit guerrilla-style, but I really didn’t want to stick any online analytics stuff in the game.

Anyway, you can download the build right here. Please try it out, spread the word and let me know your thoughts!

Back when I got my Mega Drive in 1991 I got two games along with it: Sonic the Hedgehog and Castle of Illusion. Not only did these excellent titles provide hours of fun for me and my dad, they also left a huge impression on me. Through their sheer quality, these games became my taste in games. I loved the platforming, the colors, the charm, the easy to grasp mechanics and how they were simply fun.

However, one person had trouble getting through a certain stage and it turns out that was my fault. The level in question was 2-9: TeleDelivery: Incidentally I’m going to spoil the solution now, so if you want to give it a try yourself first stop reading now and download the build right here!
