Poochie Survivors!
Can you survive to 11:00 minutes in the new 'Help me Balance' update?
- 4 new Poochies
- 2 new weapons
- 2 new items
- Old weapons have been buffed (maybe too much?)
- Fetch Stick now targets enemies
- New results screen
- Stuff to do at home
- Make the clock faster
- Faster performance
- Bangin' music
- 1 secret character
- Take a snooze
- Bark for fun!
I'd love some feedback on how easy or difficult you think it is. Balancing the attack powers and enemies has been quite the challenge. <3
Old Updates
- Wash's Game Jelly Submission -
I just finished my very first game jam where I did the coding. This is also my very first complete game!
It took me two weeks to finish.
The balancing didn't get finished so it's a little on the hard side but I'd like to follos with game dev experiment with a bug fix experiment as well.
How it's going.
How it started.

Wash's Game - 2024 Game Jelly
I'm participating in the 2024 Game Jelly and needed a place to stash my project so folks can play it.
v0.4 - Final Day!
We're all done! This was a lot of fun to make and I'm super proud of how it came out.
I will say, I didn't get to balance it much so it's currently very hard, but I plan to do some bug fixes so make sure to post about them here. :)
v0.3 - Day 6
There is now a core game loop though it isn't very flashy at this point and needs more variety.
- Added lots of sprites for future enemies and attacks
- Map now moves!
- Wag attack fades out
- Added sfx for damage, enemies, and picking up bones
- Pick up bones for EXP!
- Added EXP and LV system
- Level ups refill health
- Level ups decrease time between wag attacks
- In the future they will give the option for different weapons
- Added sprites for another dog (co-op?)
v0.1 - Day 1
Boy, figuring out how to get the enemies to follow you was hard, but it works now!
- Changed BG to black
- Cleaned up sprites to show better on black BG
- Added tail wag attack (collision is buggy)
- Added cats as placeholder enemies
- Cats can be tail wagged at
- Cats follow you (so hard to figure out!)
- Barking is still just for funzies
v0.0 - Midnight Start
Put in two solid hours tonight and got a lot accomplished. The current idea is to make a vampire survivors style game.
- Got my basic project set up
- Plugged in my game intro
- Hooked up my dog sprites
- Got movement working and a basic animation system in place
- Added "press O to bark" for funzies
Jebediah Peppermint - The Gun Wizard
~WORK IN PROGRESS~
Hi I'm Wash, 👋
I'm making small games based on every player character in the actual play D&D podcast, The Winged Badger Tavern that I play in.
In this game you play as my first character, Jebediah Peppermint, the molefolk gun-wizard who spits fire and fires spit. You'll fly through the sky atop your trusty blunderbuss 'Big Boy' and shoot down the evil forces of The Brightworld Company.
Watch live Monday's at 8:00pm EST
The gameplay is based on Lazy Dev's Academy shmup tutorial
Shoot baddies to fill your ammo. Use your ammo to fire BIG BULLETS and get a high score!
O - Shoot Bullets
X - Change Weapon
Big Bullets take shells. Regain shells by killing blue enemies.
Shooting Temp Baddies
New Weapon: Lightning Bolt!
~WORK IN PROGRESS~
FP-62's Burrito Stand
Hi I'm Wash 👋
This is my first attempt to make a game. It's based on the actual play D&D podcast The Winged Badger Tavern that I play in.
I love my characters so much that I decided I needed to make games featuring each of them.
In this game you play as fan favorite, newly sentient robot looking for a life, FP-62 as he mans the Four Guys Adventures & Vibes Magical Bean Burrito stand! Serve burritos to your customers but watch out for 'The Dead Eyes' gang trying to steal from your stock.
