Getting closer to store listing lock. If Electric Crust is on your radar at all, wishlisting now is the easiest way to make sure you don't miss launch.

Ace flies a ship that's seen better decades. she's not attached to it. she's attached to getting paid.

spent today on audio polish. SFX and music preload timing, mostly invisible work that only matters when it's wrong.

boss tier two. this one taught me a lot about respecting bullet patterns i designed myself.

the CRT scanline look isn't a filter slapped on at the end, it's baked into the cinematics. took a while to get it right without tanking performance.

If you like retro arcade shooters with more personality than they need, this one's for you. Wishlist on Steam today!

the outposts went dark one by one. Ace found out the same way everyone else did, the delivery orders just stopped coming in.

chained multi-shot into rapid fire into a shield today and cleared a stage i usually die on. that combo's staying in my head.

combo counter climbing, health bar not. every boss fight is a negotiation.

touch controls took longer to get right than the shooting did. turns out 'feels good under a thumb' is its own entire discipline.

October is going to be a big month for Electric Crust behind the scenes. If you haven't wishlisted yet, now's a good time to get in early.

#indiegame #shmup #shootemup #pizza #electriccrust

the Federation keeps offering Ace a rank. she keeps turning it down. it's not a redemption arc if you say no.

fifteen stages, four boss tiers, and i'm still finding new ways for tier four to make me scratch my head during testing.

warp mode engaged. this is the part of the run where the screen stops being polite.

#indiegame #pixelart #shmup #pizza #electriccrust

tested on real iOS hardware for the first time this week. iPad mini and iPhone both running the full campaign now, start to finish.

Still building toward launch. If Electric Crust looks like your kind of retro shooter, a wishlist genuinely helps. Costs nothing, takes five seconds.

Chef Rex never stops radioing in during a delivery. somehow that's more stressful than the actual enemy fleet.

#indiegame #shmup #retrogaming #pizza #electriccrust

small fix this week: the fire button and joystick finally sit at the same visual height on iPhone. tiny detail, bugged me for days.

#indiedev #indiegame #shmup #pizza #electriccrust

stage 3, asteroid belt. this is usually where people learn to respect the debris.
