A few months ago I was playing "Cool Beans," a shooting game prototype by Chad Chisholm, which you can still download using the wayback machine on the yoyogames sandbox. I've played the demo several times over the years. It's just fun to shoot different weapons at different kinds of beans. Unfortunately the game is very short and leaves you wanting more after clearing out all the enemies in the first & only level.
I realized that as a game developer I have the power to take the idea behind this Cool Beans prototype and create a full fledged game. So I drew some beans, and gave them walking animations, guns, and sunglasses. I've been working on the game on and off for about 4 months, and now it's almost done! I present to you, McBean:
The final game has 5 levels, 7 different weapons, and a few secrets. I plan to release the game commercially on my itch.io page, but I haven't decided on the price yet. There is already an old demo with 2 levels on it that you can give a try for free.
McBean will be ready for release either sometime later this week, or possibly next week if there are any unforeseen difficulties.
In other news, for some reason I forgot to post on here about my 2 latest game releases. I released Bounce Buds, a 2 player volleyball game, last year in July. I also released a game called Voltage last year in October, a single player game with a zapping mechanic. I made voltage in 2 days.
Stay tuned for the McBean release!

latest game project: gebub's adventure
Announcing my latest game project, Gebub's Adventure!
If you follow me on twitter you may have seen a few gifs or screenshots of the game already. It's been in development for just over a month, and progress has been quite rapid.
I'm planning to release a work-in-progress demo of the game on the 10th(of this month), which is just over one week away. You can check out the game's devlog on TIGSource for more screenshots/gifs and a further description of the game.
Make sure to keep your eyes peeled for the demo, I can't wait to hear your feedback!
