Why 'How Many Dudes?' gets pre-release discovery right! Also: Roblox standouts in December, and lots of discovery news.

Our latest newsletter is on 'How Many Dudes?' and why the roguelike gets pre-release virality (and likely post-release!) right: newsletter.gamediscover.co/p/why-how-ma...

Yup! HTML5 is no bueno, but the WASM (gx) build was super easy to get up and running. Still working on YYC version, though, but this'll do for now!

HOW MANY DUDES? by Butterscotch Shenanigans How many Dudes does it take to defeat a Gorilla? Enter the Dude Ranch and find out!

"How Many Dudes" is now playable in the BROWSER! It's a little game we cooked up for the GMTK jam last weekend to answer the question, "How many dudes does it take to beat up a gorilla?"

And equally importantly, "How many toddlers does it take to bring down 75 dudes?" Turns out... about 4,000.

This Enormous ARPG Is A Constant Treat Of Progression And Laughs Crashlands 2 is a delightfully daft, eccentrically long game of battling and crafting

I've been playing @bscotch.net's Crashlands 2 every evening for weeks! It's such a cheerful and engaging and constantly rewarding game to play. (And while it could have been jam-packed with IAPs, instead it simply has an old-fashioned purchase price.)

Crashlands 2 by @bscotch.net has a ton of chill biome songs, and this one is one of my (Patrick) favs. The Husk area has some western overtones, and I wanted to pay homage to that while still keeping things a bit weird/alien.

We hit the target so these things are going to ship! One week left until you can never get this Flux + Juicebox plushy EVERY AGAIN!

Glad you're enjoying it! The final version of fishing didn't get in until 6 weeks before launch after we decided the prior version wasn't fun enough, so I'm very glad we tuned it up
