Hello everyone,

I am so happy that a lot of people managed to replay the demo or play it again :) I hope that everyone enjoyed themselves :) As we all know, Hollow Floor is out (August 27, 2024) on Steam and itch.io for the price of $3 and to celebrate the release, I offered 3 keys to the top three highscore on Newgrounds.


The winners are

I have sent the keys to your private messages :) I hope that you will enjoy the full game as much as (or more) you liked the demo. Thanks for everyone for participating in the competition, the game still early in release so it would be amazing if you can tell your friends and share on social media :) If you are also a content creator, it would be amazing to create some playthrough video of the game :)

Finally, after 3 years I have already finished and released my latest challenging Platformer/Metroidvania and released it on Steam and Itch.io. The game is inspired by VVVVVV and REDDER so I would like to thank both Terry Cavanagh and Anna Anthropy for creating my best games. Additional thank to Shysaur for creating Rex Another Island which introduced me to the amazing musician Pete Gresser who I would to thank deeply for all the help.


The journey for creating that game was bumpy but I am so happy that I managed to have my third game that features the third minimalist character from my other games. I designed a logo for these three games (Don't Push the Button, The Sky House, and Hollow Floor) when I moved to Malta 3 years ago. I even created it using fuse beads.

I would like to thank a lot of people for making this game happen and reaching that point especially my friend Fernando Silva, Tom Fulp, Gabriella Barros, Ben Burnes, Harrison Lemke, Sylvie, Hubol, Andrew Reist, Ben Allen, Talha Kaya, Mike Cook, Marina Kittaka, Mothense, Kevin Vasquez, Jasper Schellekens, Daniel Linssen, and Roberto Gallotta.


Also a big thanks to Ravi S. for creating this cute promo poster for the game :)

First, I would like to thank everyone who wishlists Hollow Floor and Played the demo. Also special thanks to @TomFulp for being awesome and featuring the game on the main page of Newgrounds :)


The time that a lot of people have been waiting for has come, Hollow Floor is done and it will come out this month on

🥳🥳🥳 August 27 🥳🥳🥳

If you haven't tried the demo or wishlist for the game, I would highly encourage you to do so. The full game is almost between 3x and 4x bigger than the demo, it will come out for $3 with a launch discount. It provides a lot of challenges that you can tackle at any rate and assist mode for the challenge rooms. For people who don't know, Hollow Floor is a short challenging metroidvania inspired by VVVVVV and REDDER.


This game has been in development since 2021 and went through tons of iterations to make sure the level design and the game flow feel great for both normal players and speed runners.

Hello everyone,

I hope that you are all alright. If you are following me on Twitter, you would know that I have been working for multiple years on a small metroidvania game called Hollow Floor. The game is inspired by VVVVVV and REDDER.


I managed to finish a demo for Hollow Floor and release it exclusively on Newgrounds for everyone to enjoy with a speedrun table and 6 achievements :)


Go try it and leave comments and feedback :) Also if you enjoyed it please wishlist it on Steam.

Based on a lot of feedback that worDefense is easy, I implemented a hardcore mode that allows the enemies to advance on their own if you take too long of a time. Similar to Crypt of Necrodancer mechanic :)


Enjoy a bloody hard mode and let me know what you think ;)

Hey All,
First time to post here :) Sorry for not posting before and I hope you can forgive me about that :)
Me and Vartagh started working on a retro top down shooter long time ago (around 10 months ago) and we called this game Alone in the Park :)

We took long time to finish it and make it a nice game to be played for hours and compete with your friends (I know that time is more than time the game took to be created that's because we are not full time indie and we work in spare time).

Now the game is finished and looking for sponsorship and to be tested :) and its the time for the whole world to know about the game :)

So Are you ready to fight hundreds and hundres of cute but evil mushrooms to get out of the park?

Story:
After a hard-work day...john the cook closes his restaurant and goes home...
but it's very very late... nobody is around in the city, and home is far away...so John decides to pass trought through the abandoned park to make his way shorter.
The Park is strangely lighted with a strong blue white light... he enters to look for the reason..a strange portal stands in the center of the park.... It seems to call him next to it...
He finds himself pushed into a strange park, with unnatural colors, a starless sky with 2 moons...maybe another dimension ?
The portal disappears ... and now John is...

...Alone in the Park

Here are some screenshots:
ScreenShot1
ScreenShot2
ScreenShot3
BossFight1
BossFight2

Here is a trailer for the game (it is meant to be funny btw):

Features:
- 7 playable / unlockable characters (featuring 3 IndieGames characters)
- 2 Gameplay modes
- Lots of different mushroom types
- Boss Fights
- Upgrades
- RPG elements and power ups
- Achievements
- Different ending

Interested to try it, the game is now uploaded to FGL for bidding and testing (https://www.fgl.com/view_game.php?from=dev&game _id=26355).

For sponsors that want to try the game away from FGL just send me a PM here or send me an email (amidos2002@hotmail.com) and I will forward to you all the details (I wish newgrounds are interested to sponsor it as I adore that site).
