[ 2025-02-19 17:30:46 CET ] [ Original post ]
That's right!! 500 sales!! Can you imagine that?! And that's not counting Itch.io players, review codes or playtesters - 500!!! I can't believe it!!
I'm eternally lucky and thankful for every single person who helped me get this far - friends, family, web mutuals, and work acquaintances, everyone who gave the game a shot in its infancy, everyone who ever tweeted about it or made a YouTube video, anyone who ever told a friend they thought it was cool - you guys are all rockstars.

Since SomnaBuster's launch, I've been working on another game - a boss rush called 'Disaster Arms - Impact Project B.A.H.N.'. Conceptually, it's a game in the spirit of Treasure's Alien Soldier, though the core gameplay combines elements I've used in both Cycle Chaser H-5 and SomnaBuster. I don't have a lot to share about it at the moment, but I can promise development is rolling smoothly. With luck, it should be the first of many SomnaBuster follow-ups to come.
Lastly, I've created a survey for SomnaBuster players. It should take 3 minutes to fill out, I'd really appreciate if everyone could take a moment out of their day to record their responses.

Here's to another 500!

IF THE DREAM IS REAL TO YOU, IT IS WORTH FIGHTING FOR!
Accounting student Macy is down on her luck and out of her mind. But, her life of hum-drum meets an abrupt interruption at the visit of a mysterious firefly. In her place, a witch-like spirit bearing her likeness wakes up in Esperanto, a strange world manifested from the hearts and dreams of all. With an explosive broom in tow, our hero sets out to discover the mysteries of Esperanto and find her home - wherever it may be.
SomnaBuster is a 2D platformer set across Esperanto, the vibrant dreamworld. Use your powers to chase the sky and mend the breeze.
