It’s official, Run! Run! Don’t Die! is out now! After some time cooking on the back burner, we believe that the re—release of Run! Run! Don’t Die! (R2D2) is ready for the limelight! R2D2 is a speed runner built off of the inspiration and archetype provided by the classic platform games from the golden age of gaming.

When R2D2 was initially released, the game utilized an online high score board. This scoreboard was unfortunately lost during a backend transition of our systems.

The re-release of R2D2 fixes all of that and then some, restoring Run Run to its former fun, competitive glory! Checking the leaderboard is easy, either on the Run Run web page or in-game on the home screen. You may query for additional high scores on the Discord server as part of the new feature roll out.

That’s not all the new bells and whistles added, we’ve experimented and added some features to the Discord integration. One such integration is an alert when a new high score is submitted. Whenever a new competitive entry is published to the leaderboard, an alert will be sent to the members of The Indie Discord  which includes the player’s name and current score!

Finally, we have added the capability to expand the life of the game through seasons. At this moment, seasons will only take a snapshot of the high scores within a given time period. In the future we plan on changing up the levels for additional competitiveness!

We hope you enjoy this release of Run Run as much as we have. Please join our Discord and challenge those on the leaderboard. Besides, if you manage to dethrone the current champion, there is even a custom Discord role you can win!

• Silly physics based machine puzzles
• 4 worlds of puzzles, with dozens of machines and fruit types
  • Even more puzzles in secret levels
• Multiple side objectives in each level
• Full Razer Chroma RGB integration, including hints to locations of secret levels and custom keyboard colors/animations.

Sometimes you will be able to start from scratch and build the machine anyway you can.

…and sometimes you will need to fix an existing machine without going over budget.

Delivering the fruit and unlocking new factories is just as important as sorting it!

Mr. Gloumar, your manager, definitely has the jokes!

Fruit Factory is our biggest completed game release ever, and it was a ton of fun to work on! Thank you for checking it out!

ABOUT THIS GAME

Elette Fragments is a story based beat em up game. You play as Benviolo, the axe wielding star of the play, as he solves the mystery of not just a missing jewel but missing colors in his home town of Lotte. It features a unique storytelling experience using the stage and Elette’s distinct hand drawn paper cut out style of art while not backing down on the actual beat em up style game play.

Elette Fragments tells many of the smaller stories from the characters in Elette and their life after the return of Hermielle. With each act, begin to piece together the mysteries that plague the island nation while experiencing fun and new mechanics that bring an old time favorite genre some new and exciting twists.

ACT 1

When a strange trader comes to the drab land of Lotte, it isn’t long before the townsfolk find their day to day activities thrown upside down. With the slightest glimpse of a magnificent blue gem, the citizens of Lotte are thrown into a frenzy only to have the gem taken before their very eyes. Our heroes, Benviolo and Mathias Tillington II are paired with the eccentric trader as a deeper plot surrounding the loss of colors from the nation begins to take shape.

ACT 2

A musty journal, unfinished research, and a powerful artifact. In the chance to uncover the mysteries surrounding the loss of color from the Nation of Lotte, Juliet stumbles upon notes left by her late mother. All signs point to the mystical Monocle of Mortimer, a gift given to Hermielle, which legend states can control Spectra in untold ways. In what will become a quest that hits close to home, she must unite with an unlikely ally to uncover a hidden truth.

We expect Elette Fragments to tell many of the smaller stories from the characters in Lotte/Elette. This means the game will be updated every so often with a new story/play and new features and mechanics to go along with it. For example, we currently have 1-2 small mini games during the acting scenes (you can see one below), and we do plan to expand on that, making the acting scenes not just the way you experience the story, but their own fun and engaging mechanics. Beyond this, we will also be adding new characters, items and power-ups, and blocking/dashing to the combat engine. Our goal is to release the next story on Christmas.

We are also running a promotion, where we will create a custom character and/or art piece in the Elette style for the first 10 people to donate to the development of Elette. This is totally optional! Please see the itch.io page for more info on how to claim this prize.

As always, please let us know if you do any Lets Plays or streams so we can feature them on our sites and social media!

bs2 is a short but hectic vertical space shooter where you steal powers from your slain foes. Each enemy will have two powers, and when you defeat it you will have to quickly choose which power up you want by flying to that side of the screen. However some combinations of powers are much more exciting than others, and sometimes you have to take a big risk to be able to fly to the better power up. The power ups can also be used or expire, so this leads to ever changing “builds” to explore and use on the enemies.

bs2 was made with love and inspiration from the band Brave Saint Saturn and the anime Cowboy Bebop. It is another small experimental game made using GameMaker Studio 2. The bulk of the game was made by two people (saturnSaint and JerIn3D) over 3 days to test out some new behind the scenes Indie Accord systems. We also wanted to play with the idea of “juicing” up a game.

Let us know what you think!

BTW: Anyone who makes a let’s play of bs2 will have their video featured on the game’s page! Make sure to send it to us at our links below so we don’t miss it!
