I did it. I took the decision to split my #Pentis main file ~1000 lines of code into different files with utils files. I am scared. If I don't come back. Tell my wife that I love her

A few days ago I discovered by accident that I forgot the mirrored "red t" pentominoe. Yesterday, aptiz streamed his #pentis games when (at 1:43:00) he is waiting for the very same mirrored "red t" pentominoe 😅

I pop in at 2:49:00 and had a lot of fun with you guys. Tytris also played (1st time). Thanks so much to you guys for playing and contributing 🙏🤗
Btw: Aptiz plays the #PentisLu Version which is really hard to play imo. To starters I consider the std version 😉

That was the very first time a coded on an ICE. I made a little algorithm for the randomly fallen pentominoes in #pentis. It felt so cool to #code on a fast train😊

and aptiz just broke the #pentis record - first time 40 K🙃 🏆
now with preview, 3 rotations, smash drop, and a new pentominoe big L. Download it for free, compete on the online scoreboard with pentis players around the globe.

#Pentis 0.6.9.4 TNM is now free on
https://grapefruit256.itch.io/pentis

Compete with your friends online 👾👽👻
in the first @fun_gineers #PentisTOURNAMENT

Inspired from #Tetris, but instead of tetrominoes(4), pentominoes(5) are falling from the top of the screen. Those five-block shapes offer a more complex and advanced level of gameplay🙃

Here is the first play through video 16x faster

Like 20 minutes ago Maria.M was on 8K or so. Now she is on 21K. Would not be the first time that she is good for a surprise.
She might win the 60$ game of #PentisTOURNAMENT. Maybe for her kids ?🤔

At approximatly 2.15 am UTC +1 "some German dude" has skyrocketed the #Pentis scoreboard with 33137 points🦅. The new #PentisRankings champion🥇 after his record game: „Here... ShadowGames was there“.
In fact, it IS not the first record ShadowGames has set up. You can find his remarkable 3144 achievements at Level 40 on #Steam 🏆
https://steamcommunity.com/id/MrShadowGames
He "loves challenges in #games and like to get to know people from all around the world🌏
A Pentis Steam version is planned.

Who would have thought that #gamedev is such a pleasant, informative fascinating, fulfilling and exhausting way to spend an infinite amount of time.🙃
Here is what I reached so far(4x fast).
What do you think?
#honestgamedev #indiegame #pentis

I'm exhausted.
Wanted to publish #pentis Ver. 0.7 yesterday but decided not to publish a game that contains a private key😅 So now I'm checking on JWT to make function highscore list secure. 📃🔐
But I'm pretty sure that this is all a big coincidence and happening to me for the very last time as a #gamedev 😅🤓🤭
Any suggestions on how to make this process less.... exhausting?
#honestgamedev #indiegame

In #pentis Ver. 0.6.8.4 four lines score 1600 points. Five lines score 2400 points.
I don't have a screenshot of a (just before) five line score so far. Such an presantable screenshot would be used on itch.io and the screenshotter named in the description. If desired 😅 wanna try?
Here is a screenshot of a (just before) four-liner🙂

If you wanna play, please ask.

Ver 0.7 will be on itch.io today or tommorrow 🤗
#gamedev #indiegame #game #honestgamedev

Completely new and motivating feeling for me to have a break from #gamedev - going back to your #game and seeing that another someone played #Pentis because of the new entry in the online highscore list. Up on itch.io this week for free🙂
Of course, someone forgot to enter his username(I knew it😅)
Created a little workaround with the default username "Willem Default" but I will popup the input username screen before the write function. 🧐💻
#honestgamedev

This was one of my first bugs in #pentis. I started the game out of a Tetris Tutorial and the rotate function had to be adapted, of course.
Every picture represents one stage of rotation😅 It was way before Version 0.5
Last Version 0.6.7 ist available.
https://grapefruit256.itch.io/pentis
After a few more tests Version 0.7 will be uploaded on itch.io this week. With usernames and a online highscore list !

Hey, gamer, nerds and coders! Maybe you wanna try #Pentis. It uses the five-block pentonimoes instead of tetronimoes, which provides a more advanced and complex gameplay😉
It is in developement, but playable and fun. and free🙂

Give it a try :)
