Typesetter

Typesetter

I made Typesetter as part of a two-person team for the 2023 GMTK Game Jam. Our game placed in the top 10% of games submitted, and scored highly in the categories of Creativity and Enjoyment.

The theme for this jam was “Roles Reversed”. We therefore decided to flip the traditional progression of idle/incremental games on their head by increasing the amount of actions players could do with each progressive unlock, rather than reducing the value of player actions.

I was responsible for the development and part of the design of this game.

Player Comments:
“At first, I was not sure what I was doing then… I soon realized I have been playing for a while. Something about this game is so magical and it is very relaxing”
“I blinked and 3 hours had gone by. So relaxing and satisfying. Bravo”
“Like the best idle games, this game is very easy to get lost in for half an hour, even though it only seemed like 5 minutes”
