I just published an updated build of my couch co-op tower defense game about building mazes. It's been a really productive 4 months since the last build, and the quality of the tower art has shot way up.
You can download it here: https://briimawler.itch.io/labyrinths-of-elfhame
It's also made in godot, so you don't have to worry about bankrupting me by trying it out.

Books I've read in 2021
Because why not + comments
36/21 (updated to: /30)
The Cruel Prince ★★★★ (I read this just a year ago? Damn, a reread is definitely needed)
The Lost Sisters ★★★ (Still trying to understand the point of this)
The Wicked King ★★★★ (That time I understood TikTok fed me lies about the romance in this series)
The Queen of Nothing ★★★★ (I didn't understand a thing back then and I still don't do it now)
How the King of Elfhame Learned to Hate Stories ★★★★ (Cardan. Thank you for coming to my TedTalk)
A Court of Silver Flames ★★★★★ (Rating based on the main characters and the headcanons, not the plot because I can't rate what doesn't exist)
Six of Crows ★★★★ (Do I really need to elaborate?)
Shadow and Bone ★★★ (I still can't remember how the book actually ended because I watched the tv adaptation before finishing it so now I have no idea which is which. And btw Archie Renaux thank you for existing, my life and Mal's is better because of you <3 )
Realm Breaker ★★★.5 (Why the 15 pages per chapter, V? Just tell me why. Sorasa Sarn made up pretty well for it, bUT STILL-)
Kingdom of the Wicked ★★★★★ (We could've been so good together)
The Atlas Six ★★★★ (Flexing hard having read this before it became TikTok famous, but flexing harder having Olivie Blake commenting on my live-reading thread)
Red, White & Royal Blue ★★★★ (I wanted the gays and this gave me the gays, that's all I have to say)
The Sea of Monsters ★★★ (How it started kind of, I read the first one in summer 2020)
The Titan's Curse ★★★
The Battle of the Labyrinth ★★★★
The Last Olympian ★★★★★ (How it ended, and it hit harder than I expected)
These Violent Delight ★★★★★ (tHE LOVE THE PAIn)
The Seven Husbands of Evelyn Hugo ★★★★ (No fruit love felt in here, but that ending? Can we talk about it? A full star more just for that)
Gild ★★★.5 (It's the journey trope for me)
Kingdom of the Cursed ★★★★ (The ending saved a lot but Kerri? What happened? I was confused, but you were confused even more than me apparently)
Crescent City: House of Earth and Blood ★★★★★ (Go kiss Bryce Quinlan's ass. Now. Also can I just flex the fact and Bryce and I share the same middle name? I MEAN that's queen material, I won't be embarrassed by it ever again)
To Kill A Kingdom ★★★★ (Started in May; it's definitely the journey trope for me)
The Shadow Between Us ★★ (Slytherin romance mY ASS)
The Raven Boys ★★★★★ (THIS BOOK GODDAMNIT I still dream of it at night)
Dream Thieves ★★★★ (Umh... Kerah?)
Blue Lily, Lily Blue ★★★★.5 (The Beginnings, if you know what I mean)
The Raven King ★★★★★ (Fucked up my brain real bad ngl)
Opal ★★★ (Basically useless but the few Pynch scenes were just *chef's kiss*)
Call Down the Hawk ★★★ (I didn't read TRC in a week only to waste a full month on this damn book)
Our Violent Ends ★★★★★ (it was a one-way ticket to (S)pain, no refund)
Mister Impossible ★★★ (I wish I could hate this book but I don't but I hate that I can't love it either I'm like aocjsox)
The math doesn't add up because I also read three boring books for school and the first two manga volumes of My Hero Academia, hopefully one day I'll catch up with the rest as well or I'll just buy all the volumes and start from where the anime ended

I released a demo of my couch co-op tower defense game! It takes heavy inspiration from growing up with Warcraft 3 custom maps, and some of my frustrations as an adult trying to get LAN parties going.
Hexagons are the bestagons, and make superior game boards. Also happy pride! Every character in this game is queer, however development of the core game mechanics hasn't left much time for introducing all of those story elements.
Aside from the last remaining assets downloaded from https://kenney.nl and the music, everything else was made with an open source creation pipeline using a combination of Blender, Krita, and Inkscape.

Adding color choices to my game.
Yesterday I streamed for about 4 hours adding some quality of life features to my game (such as the UI element that shows which tower is currently selected by the player to build). I also added the ability on the character select screen for players to choose their color, instead of just having it assigned to them. It changes both the crystal next to the amount of essence they have, and the color of the base around their towers. By default the first 4 colors are colorblind safe on the character select screen, with options for even more.

I'm very proud of this graph
Tumblr media
My game (and itch.io page) have a link to a google form where players can provide feedback. There's some bits of it I agree with, some bits I'm not so sure about. But this graph. Hoo boy, am I so fucking proud of this graph.
I have spent god knows how many hours debugging, testing, and refactoring my game when it doesn't work to hunt down all the weird edge cases. Solo dev can be tough, but at least the game never crashed for all the people who tried it out.
