Big news! There is now a TDTWS steam page! Feel free to head on over and check it out.
We’re still a long way off from release, but I hope this helps everyone get as excited for it as I am. And if you’re feeling so inclined, maybe even give us a wish list add if you like.
The Day the World Stopped Steam Page!
As always, thank you for all of your support!
I couldn’t fit the whole setup, but we’re here at Blue Hen Anime Con in Harrington Delaware. Stop by and say hi if you’re here too!
Too Many Games may have been the best convention I have ever done. Don’t get me wrong, they have all been great, but between the fellow devs that I met, the amazing staff, and all of the amazing attendees that stopped by to try the game, I was blown away.
I’m sad that I didn’t have time to try everyone’s games, It seemed that all of the other devs felt the same. We were all swamped. The few that I did get to try were excellent. In no particular order:
Mech Tech – a game that lives comfortably between an RTS and a moba, and brings the best from both of those genres.

Oddware – a sci-fi visual novel about android in space. I only got to play a small portion but it was intriguing and very entertaining with fun and engaging characters.

Nixie – A metroidvania style game. Good exploration and controls. And a bright and colorful look that brings all of the nostalgia of the Sega CD era with plenty of modern flair.

Deluge – A fellow RPG Maker User. Making a very unique game where you are a minion brought back to life by the big bad, and you get to choose whether to follow orders and kill the people of this world deny your master and find a path to redemption.

Pixel Nior – A turn based RPG where you play a grizzled detective. It’s got a very gorgeous detailed isometric view point and cool mechanics. The story is quite engaging as well. Plus, it’s already released!

Shred the Undead – A love letter to the Gauntlet series but you’re a rock band. A lot of fun and creative with the special moves. And its already released as well!

Hook Line and Sniper – A fun shoot everything game where you are a fish……. with a sniper rifle. Its a wonderfully ridiculous premise that is wildly entertaining. Also released!

But the best thing to happen. Someone Cosplayed Panik!!!!! Thank you Johanna! (I hope I spelled that right) You have no idea how amazing that was to see!
I hope everyone else that went had as great of a time as I did! And I hope to see you all soon!
One more time, WITH FEELIN’! About one month later and we’re back in Oaks, PA for Too Many Games! If you happen to be at this convention, stop on by and say hi!
It’s been a busy year! And as much as I’d like to have posted about it more, I’m glad I was at least working on getting other game stuff done. As of writing this, the first third of the game is completely playable. There’s a hefty chunk more that’s also at some level of completion as well, but that fact that you can play through so much of the game is a big milestone for me.
Also here’s a few little bits of stuff made recently:
It was a bit of a tricky setup for this one. But I think we managed to pull it together. Hope to see some of you this weekend!
I hope all of you can stop by and say hi!

It has been a busy month since my last post. A new area of the game is almost complete. I added a new simple but effective feature for the battle system, integrated a few quality of life features for the overall game, as well as completed a number of items on my development to do list. We are just about 40% done with the whole game. That is hefty increase in productivity over the past year. And hopefully that continues to speed up.
Also, I’ll be showing the game at two new conventions! Thy Geekdom Con on May 23-25 and Too Many Games on June 27 – 29. Both of them in Oaks, PA. I hope that I get to see some of you there!
Talk to you soon!
Hi All,
I hope everyone’s doing as well as they can this year. Sorry for the radio silence since December. I took a little time off and then had some minor health issues. But I’m back at it again!
New things going on. We have a bluesky! daytheworldstopped.bsky.social
And a convention just outside of Philly in May! Check the side bar for detail!
So that’s pretty cool! Now I’m just trying to make some headway on the next major game area. Once I have that done, technically you could play the game to AN ending. Just not thee ending. Regardless, that will be a pretty big milestone and mark the game at roughly 50% done. Hopefully I’ll be able to show off some things soon!
Holidays have been hectic, so I never announced that the demo for the game is now available on Steam! Yay! Check it out here:
