Little ol' Super Buff HD is one of the games in Kotaku's 'OK Boomer: These Are 10 Of The Best Boomer Shooters' feature. We're in fine company too, schmoozing sweaty shoulder rubs with the likes of ULTRAKILL, Ion Fury, and Dusk.

Here's what Kotaku says about Super Buff HD:

"This feels like the game Strong Bad would have made if he had a more powerful Lappy, a deeply weird and weirdly animated shooter that’s clearly influenced by Homestar Runner. But also by Duke Nukem 3D, which is why I believe it deserves a spot here."

They also say: "Absolutely no one played this joyful craziness" which is almost totally true, but not quite cos you beautiful buffs and guffs played it, and we thank you for that.

And you know, depending on who you ask, someone might say that boomer shooters is the best game genre of all time. And since that Kotaku article is NOT listed in any particular order, someone out there COULD say that Buff is the best game on that list.

So I guess what I'm trying to say is...

"Super Buff HD is the best game of all time" - Kotaku 2024 let's go

It's time to get my head, back into the game. I've decided to review my goals to achieve full release status. It will take a lot of time and effort to implement some of these features. So I've decided to refine my release goals and if my games get enough interest after full game release. I will go back and add the game features in the future roadmap update.

So after full game release, it'll be time to put my love letters to 80's gaming on hold. To start work on a modern no limits project.

So having said all that, I'd better go get busy...

Thank you for your time, and thank you very much for your patience.

Hey everyone! It's not Friday, but since I haven't done one of these in a while, I thought I'd share a midweek update.

Happy New Year to all of you! I wanted to thank all of you for your continued support. It makes such a difference– seriously, you probably don't even realise exactly what it means to me. It's been such a privilege for me. From the bottom of my heart, thank you, thank you, thank you!

2023 was a difficult year for a lot of us, (listening to some of the other members on the team, this isn't an exaggeration!) so may 2024 be much much better for everyone!

I'm officially over my burnout, and I've been working on Infinite Stars like crazy. (Just today we coded 10.5K words, or an entire length of Episode 1 on the live stream. That's roughly ¼ of the content that we're planning to add to the next public release.)

I've also officially added Lindi and Sonia's sprites to the game, and some new backgrounds. I still have several more backgrounds and sprites that need adding, and we're tackling them as we cruise through the script, adding them as we need them.

If you're not on the Infinite Stars Discord and would like to hang out during our live streams and other activities, come on over!

Have a fantastic rest of the week! And stay safe! <3

Currently, only one lobby can be created in multiplayer. We are aware of this problem. We will update and fix this problem as soon as possible.

It was quiet for some time, but our Restaurant Builder is alive and well. We are working hard on the game without slowing down! We'll have some important news to share with you soon, but first, let's catch up on some current events.




As you have seen Restaurant Builder was all about building, but we thought it was not enough. Restaurants always feature hungry clients and food. We have decided to add that to our game.





We have prepared something to share with you.

1. New pre-alpha gameplay



2. A few screenshots from the pre-alpha version of the game









3. We have changed Restaurant Builder Steam graphics



That's it for today, but we'll be back soon with another devlog where we show more of the key features of Restaurant Builder.

https://store.steampowered.com/app/2235490/Restaurant_Builder/

If you want to share your thoughts about the devlog or the game itself, just join our Discord and add Restaurant Builder to your wishlist on Steam!


We thank that you are with us,
FreeMind Games

PS. We have just announced one of a kind next-gen gardening simulation game "Gardener". Check it out and if you like it, add it to your wishlist.
