A heartfelt thanks to all of you who took the time to try my messy little demo during this past weekend! I’ve got an absolutely massive amount of feedback to work through and implement for future builds and I’m super excited to make MELON the best game it can be! Even though the demo was full of issues this meant a lot to me! THANK YOU!
hi, i tried your MELON demo, and i want to give some feedback. First of all the artwork is beautiful, and the style is lovely. The characters and the animations are nice. There are some problems (i know it is a demo): the UI is a bit unintuitive, i was seriously lost in the menu until i found out the keymap(to look up the keymap was hard). traveling through doors was also frustrating to find out (interact does not work, only move up), after that i got stuck while swimming. I hope this helps.
Thank you, I’ve gotten a lot of similar feedback, but I appreciate it none the less :) (Holding directional button + jump button makes you swim, the swimming is very VERY work in progress) :P
DEMO (finally)
So I FINALLY finished this little demo of MELON and I would really appreciate if you tried it out and gave me feedback! <3 Likes, reblogs, comments HIGHLY appreciated! https://fruitdev.itch.io/melon
Thank you!!
Did a small update to make a few things easier in the very beginning and solved a bug where pressing Z in the intro would break the game (because of a stupid debug feature.) If you downloaded the old version I’d recommend redownloading :)

Ya’ll cuties better have a great 2020! Happy New Years and don’t do anything I wouldn’t do :3
Goddamn it, why does time speed up the older you get?
Wrote 4 lines of dialogue for the ending of Melon yesterday (which is really far off still.) I cried like a child. Maybe it’s just me being very attached to the game (probably) but if I can pull off the narrative I’m going for it’s gonna be sick.
Please be excited.
Above is Melon doing unrelated shit.

Heyooo have some gameplay! This represents some of the moveset Melon will have available early-midgame. Still lacks a lot of Juice™ but the gameplay comes across :)
Also here’s a WIP concept of Night Time Coziness I forgot to post, colors not final.
Hope you’re all having a great weekend! <3
“My friend Mint lives here. She’s not home right now, I wonder where she went?”
The relationship between Melon and Mint is one of the fundamental cornerstones of the game’s narrative. Can’t wait to invite you all on the journey with them! :3
Hello? Yes? Hi! Some jerk put Melon in jail. Please let her out. お願いします！！！

Toying with this idea for a weapon. It would probably come unlocked from the start if playing on Assist Mode. Sometimes it’s just fun to tear through the world exploding enemies with a single press of a button (and also it’s great for testing) :)

What is being stored in the silos?
I feel like every time I blink several months have passed by since I last posted anything. Progress is really good though, working towards a super early demo in the coming months. Love ya’ll <3
I like this place, but if any of you are fleeing the burning wreckage of tumblr, come follow me over on https://twitter.com/melongamedev
I post hell of a lot more often there, with the caveat that it’s also a lot more shitposting. I guess you win some and lose some, huh?
