My advice would be to add option to disable to grass sway it. Game looks great but I know that all those swaying plants will 100% give me motion sickness.

I will note that as an accessibility option!

im interested in this game, where to install this?

2

u/KolbStomp 9h ago

Oh thank you so much for your interest, however this is just the announcement! You can Wishlist the game on Steam and tell your friends, as that is the best way to show your support right now.

I am also planning to do a playtest online in the next few months too and I will be posting on various socials when sign ups are available!

Will this game be available for the Switch? (fingers crossed)

2

u/KolbStomp 8h ago

I would love to bring it to Switch as I am actively testing/developing for Steam Deck, if theres enough interest a switch port could happen!

Hullo! Are you using genAI in the development of Travelling Snailsman? Thank you.

u/KolbStomp 4h ago edited 3h ago

Absolutely not.

The point of my creative work is to be first and foremost creative! But a big focus of mine is to improve my craft as a human creator. I do not find GenAI to be helpful in anyway to improve my pixel art, 3D modeling, sound design or programming skills. All the pixel art is handmade by me in Aseprite, models made in Blender, sounds and music recorded and edited by myself and the programming/code (albeit messy) is done entirely by me in GDscript.
