We made two new free games for Ludum Dare: Hexle and Devolved! 🧩🧠 (Patreon)

Hi punks!

Last weekend Ludum Dare was on! It's a friendly competition where everyone tries to make a video game from scratch over the weekend. There are two categories, one where you have to do it solo and make everything yourself within 48 hours, and there's a team category where you can also use external assets and you have 72 hours to finish your game. There's also a theme that you're supposed to work into the game, here it was "Limited Space"!

And this time we managed to make an entry for each category!

I made Hexle in 48 hours for the compo category, it's a small number-guessing puzzle game, a little like sudoku but with original rules I came up with during the weekend.

And Benjamin made Devolved in 72 hours, with music by Pentadrangle and I also helped with a little bit of extra code and writing! This one is a very special kind of platformer where you play as the last neuron of the last human on earth. (/!\ this one is NSFW, the last human on earth is simply not wearing pants)

Both games are a bit rough around the edges as we were pretty constrained by the time limit but they work and hopefully they are interesting and enjoyable enough as they are! Both games have a good chance of turning into full Punkcake releases in the future so we'll take any feedback you have on them!

And speaking of releases, as a result of doing Ludum Dare we have very little energy for this week, so we're going to take a very small break from our Steam release spree and postpone Pigment's Steam release to next week!

That's it for now! Thanks for the support and we hope you enjoy the games!
