Devlog: Introducing Way Down We Go

Jai Shri Ram,

Hey Everyone,

Pleasure to introduce you to the game Way Down We Go. This idea basically seeded in my head while playing the game A Way Out by Hazelight. My co-op partner kept singing the famous song "Way Down We Go" by KALEO, to the point where it started to irritate me (cool song though, BTW).

I realized that in many platformer games, when players are stuck solving puzzles, they are also stuck listening to the same music. It can get quite irritating if the music is short or the pitch isn't right. So, I wanted players to be able to create their own music as they play.

Regarding the visuals, I didn't want to use any assets that didn't belong in the world or seemed out of place (like a train floating in the sky). Instead, I aimed to create something basic yet mesmerizingly beautiful, complementing the music players would be creating. I kept the design as minimal as possible to enhance this experience.

Thanks for bearing with me. Here's to adding another milestone in creating games.

Love you all,

SuperDam
