Gunlocked 1.55: One Last Hurrah
Developing Gunlocked was a life-changing event that saw me go from a 15 year career as a freelance illustrator to a full time game developer. It was both scary and fun to come back to this project for one last little update.
Playing it again had me fall in love with it all over. I'd love to make a proper sequel some day, but this game developer life is still a tenuous one, so we'll have to see how things shake out with my current project, Boons & Burdens!
Thanks for everything, and enjoy this last little patch for the 2nd Gunning DLC! And if you still don't have it, grab a copy of the 2nd Gunning DLC here

I was waiting to hear back from some interested publishers on a much larger project, so I thought I'd take some prototypes I'd worked on and smash them together into something new. The result, after just 6 weeks, was the first Early Access build of Gunlocked. Now, many years later, that quick little game's big brother…New Game: Super Shootin Star4 years ago I released a little mobile game that combined Doodle Jump with rocket jumping. People called it "Reverse Downwell", Apple called it a "New Game We Love." But alas, I don't have enough hours in the day to maintain mobile and PC games. So with my modern focus on PC first, I decided to resurrect an old favorite, remaster the art, rebalance the gameplay, rebuild the controls, and finall…
