Pulstario Update #2Gosh, hey all! It's been a while! I wanted to push a tiny update for the game that should hopefully help future-proof it.
Pulstario was developed in Game Maker 2 in 2018-2019, and as such it uses a pretty old version of SteamWorks and the code is pretty outdated, so in an effort to update all of my games, I've rebuilt Pulstario on Game Maker LTS, which will allow me to make small updates to the game if/when necessary.
Menus: Now pressing up will take you to the last option, pressing down will take you to the first option.
Screen Size: Now there's no limit to how big the screen can be. If you want to play in windowed mode but take up the most space possible on your 8K display, go nuts.
Prefetching: Sounds and sprites are automatically loaded at the beginning of the game, making it less likely to run into any hitches when playing the game.
General: Moving to Game Maker LTS may make the game more smooth on displays running higher than 60hz, despite being capped at 60fps.
While I don't have any future updates planned for Pulstario, I am working on new games that you might consider checking out:
LOVE 3, out now!
Mort's Dream Jump, in early access as a free demo!
Deltarune (Chapters 1 & 2 out now!)
Thanks so much for playing my little space game. Take care!
[ 2023-06-15 23:16:18 CET ] [ Original post ] Pulstario is a small game in which you pilot a ship through the void and collect missing souls. It has challenging moments and hopefully the gameplay is a rewarding experience. From the creator of LOVE and kuso.
Pulstario is a short game that will likely take a player
30 minutes to complete the main game. There are also achievements, secret levels, and unlockable ship skins for the player to earn and collect.
The gameplay for Pulstario has been described as:
- "Wobbly Free Range Pac-Man"
- "Lunar Lander - Without the landing"
- "Asteroids with gravity"
- "Luftrausers for Pacifists"
Features:
- 11 Levels
- 5 Secret Levels
- 14 Achievements
- 14 Unlockable Ship Skins
- Steam Trading Cards and Emotes
- Steam Leaderboards for frame-perfect speedruns as well as individual level speedruns
- Native Xinput Controller Support
The game will feature a the following modes:
- Unlimited Mode: Play through the game's ten levels with unlimited lives, the ability to slow down time, and enjoy the game with no punishments.
- Arcade Mode: Play through the game with a limited number of lives and the ability to slow down time.
- Challenge Mode: Play through the game with a very limited number of lives.
- Speedrun Mode: Play through the game or individual levels to try and achieve the fastest time.
- One Life Mode: Challenge each level without dying
The soundtrack for the game is the Green EP from Retfoniq.
