Announcing: Electrosphere2d, Spheroid's Spiritual Successor

Jul 13, 2020

Hello, everyone. It has been a while, and I- the developer of Spheroid- have some exciting news about Spheroid's future- but, more specifically, the future of its new spiritual successor, Electrosphere2d.

[gamejolt.com]According to the store page on Game Jolt:

in the 2D platforming spiritual successor to Fennecai Fox Creative's "Spheroid,"; you play as a robotic blue sphere equipped with a powerful electrical field, but no ability to jump. Collect data bytes, defeat patrolling enemies, and build up speed to roll through a variety of uniquely stylized environments at breakneck speeds! Journey to find out what happened to all the data that was recently stolen from the Blissful Hills datacenter!

Electrosphere2d is in a very much incomplete, pre-alpha status currently. The game is not ready to play, and development is now in the conceptual phase mostly.

I cannot announce a release date or open beta at this time, but I would like to announce this new game project for all of you who have supported Spheroid for this whole time.

The game will not release on steam.

If you would like to be notified about further development progress on Electrosphere2d and be notified when- and IF- it eventually releases on Game Jolt, you may click on the above image. The above image will take you to Gamejolt.com, where you can follow the game's development progress as soon as I have something worth sharing.

That's all I have to say for now; thank you for reading this surprising update- I look forward to hearing from you on the Game Jolt page soon!

This Game Is Dead (not a prank, sorry)

Apr 1, 2019

This is unironically not an April fools day joke.

I'm not going to go into detail. All I will say is that things didn't work out for Spheroid and I am deleting the store page soon, if not today.

If anyone who has bought the game in hopes of getting a future version for free is disappointed at all by this, please contact me as soon as possible: 1995aek@gmail.com

thank you. I will tie up loose ends (refunds, etc.) as necessary, requested, and possible.

Potential Issues Due to steamworks fiddling

Mar 6, 2019

Hello everyone, just a quick update:

You may experience issues launching the game due to recent fiddling with the steam-works settings on my end.

These settings have moved the game's files from "steamapps/Spheroid" into "steamapps/spheroid/Spheroid_public" and as such may cause the game to simply not launch.

To resolve this issue, please uninstall and then re-install the game via your steam library by right-clicking the game and choosing "uninstall", then installing as normal afterwords.

for the same reasons; I also have had to temporarily remove the "Classic" beta branch from spheroid.

For the time being, i am not planning on adding it back until the game's current major overhaul has been finished or close-to-finished, at which point i will add back the classic branch, and add the current version of the game to that branch.

that said, it will have one less copyright-infringing song in it...you probably know the one. y'know, the one an entire level is based on. im working on that; but the old version of the project is going to be a painful mess to work with on my end if im not extremely careful, so the song isnt going to be removed from that until i know how to do so without crippling the entire unity project. If the song's copyright holders are reading this- thank you for your understanding.
