| Coco Block Demo Now Available 🥥🐒 | 2025-12-17 | Hi everybody! 🐵 I’ve just launched the Steam store page for Coco Block, and the demo is available to play right now! This was a small side project I made about 10 years ago. Coco Block is a very simple, arcade-style game where coconuts fall from above and you need to block them before they hit your monkeys — while letting the monkeys eat the bananas for points, combos, and higher scores. 🥥 The game will be completely free, and the demo gives you the full experience (including some quick and easy achievements, if that’s your thing, which will carry over to the full release). I mainly wanted to get the page and demo out there so people can tr |
| Announcing new free game! Run Bird Run! | 2024-11-12 | https://clan.cloudflare.steamstatic.com/images/28825135/ced9186fbaeb242d02b3cf7b56b842fb9bf04366.gif Hi everybody! ːPhhelperː I plan to release some of my past unreleased projects for free. The first one out will be Run Bird Run, and it is now available to wishlist. You can then add it to your library when it is released! I need to adjust some things and add Steam Achievements, etc., before release. Hopefully, this is just the first of many of my past unreleased projects I can put out, and I hope to do it for my previous unreleased titles as well!ːPfishː https://store.steampowered.com/app/3312100/Run_Bird_Run/ You can also follow my Steam Dev |
| New Teaser Trailer for No Life | 2024-10-28 | https://clan.fastly.steamstatic.com/images/28825135/1d70c5c2a59e6b9e49a0f652006c283e62f48115.gif Hi everybody! ːPhhelperː As stated in my previous post, No Life is still in development, perhaps too early to be shown properly, but I still wanted to put out a short teaser trailer with some small action from the game. You can now see the teaser on the No Life Steam store page! Currently, the teaser only shows one weapon (the pistol) and one zombie type (the normal slow one), but I actually have four weapons and about eight different zombie types in the game currently. However, I need to create proper graphics and polish them up before I can show |

I just recently updated the store page for my next game "No Life" which will be a survival roguelite with zombies and will be a departure in terms of being a bit (lot) more gruesome than my other games.. (though the zombies are still quite cute in their own way). You will also be able to have a dog companion in the game! ːPdogː Keep in mind that what is shown so far is still very early and unfini |

| Status Update on Plantera 2 | 2022-02-16 | Hi everybody. ːPhelperː I just wanted to make a quick status update since I know that it was a long time since the last announcement on the progress of Plantera 2. The reason for not having a new announcement in a long time is that the game is feature complete so there have not really been anything "new and exciting" to report :) Right now I am basically doing runs of the game to see that everything is as I want it to be and as polished as I can make it before sending it out for bug testing. The last "run" I did I did find some things that I wanted to change so that is basically what I am doing now. One of the thing was implementing a "Tool T |
| Water Decorations in Plantera 2 | 2021-07-09 | ⠀⠀⠀⠀ Was focusing on trying to do the important but boring and time consuming work of ironing out bugs and balancing for Plantera 2 release and noticed the water looked kind of bare even with the fish and dolphins in it so could not resist going on one of my regular less important tangent to add some water decorations. As with other decorations in the game they give Deco Points which is more important than regular Coins in the later game stage. And yes I know it is taking its time, but it is coming! ;) ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Add Plantera 2: Golden Acorn to your Wishlist to get notified when it is released! ːPhelperːːPpigːːPhenːːPsheepːːPcowːːPdogːː |

| Deco Points in Plantera 2 | 2021-02-23 | ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Deco Points are now fully integrated in Plantera 2! In the early game it is as usual important to focus on gathering Coins. But in the later game it will become more and more important to focus on making the garden as varied and beautiful as possible as that will increase the gardens Deco Points which transfers into Golden Acorns. Golden Acorns will also grow from the big Magic Tree and an active lively garden will also speed up the production of Golden Acorns, this includes all passive and active actions, every frog that catches a butterfly or dolphin that punches a fish contributes to the production! :) ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Add P |
