I'm starting to second-guess our decision to put a "build 10,000 webs" achievement into our game. Poor guy is spamming the web button for half an hour😅

We just shipped achievements for our game, expecting people to take their time with them. One player decided otherwise and got every single one in a couple of hours. Following along in Discord while it happened was so much fun.🤩 Congratulations Calicokat7 🏆

Update 0.15.0 is live! 🕷️ A Webbing Journey now has 52 Steam achievements to chase, plus a revamped office 3D printer. Go catch them all, little spiders! 🕸️ Oh, and the game is on sale right now. -30% for the next 2 weeks 🤩

Just finished implementing the achievements for the living room level in our game. Doing some final tests now, so we can drop the update later today. 🤩 Can you guess what you have to do to get these achievements?

I don't know why, but I love these random situations you find yourself in when working on a physics game. Was watching this piece wooble around for a solid minute before taking the video 😅

The achievements for the kids' room level are ready. These are my favorite achievements so far. Now there is only the living room level left, and then you can hunt down all 50+ achievements. 🎯

Finished implementing all the achievements for the kitchen level. 🍴🍳 Can you guess what these achievement icons will be for?

Österreichische Spielestudios im Porträt - Special - Teil 5 - Fire Totem Games aus Kärnten: Hui Spinne!

Die Hauptfigur von "A Webbing Journey" ist süss, krabbelig-kreativ und hilfsbereit Silky, eine Spinne, die Menschen bei der Hausarbeit zur Seite steht, Pardon, webt. Das Sandbox-Spiel des österreichis...

Working on achievements for our game. Here are some of the icons. Anja did an amazing job creating these. 🤩

Hi #PitchYaGame 📷 In A Webbing Journey, you are a tiny spider exploring a human-sized house! * A physics-based 3D sandbox adventure * Create elaborate web structures * Climb anything, swing everywhere * Solve physics puzzles, time race, and interact with hundreds of fun objects

One would think that after working with Unity's physics system for so many years, I would have understood what the joints are doing, but nope, I get surprised every single day about their weird behavior 😅

Ok, it's time to reflect on how crazy the House and Home fest was for our game. As you can imagine, we have been blown away by the number of wishlists we got. In just one week, we racked up over 22k wishlists and 15x our average sales every day.

We are currently reworking our Steam page and part of that is creating new capsule art, especially for the small capsule. Which one of these would you rather click on?

It finally happened! We have been part of many Steam events over the years, but the House and Home event is the first that is really moving the needle, both on Wishlists and Sales. I thought it was a myth, but getting your game into the right event can really do you wonders 🤩

Big fan of these Best Steam Review videos on social media, so I thought I'd make one for our game 😊

I've been working on new videos for our Steam page, and I love this shot because the eyes change direction at the end of the shot. 👀 These are googly eyes, which are fully controlled by physics. So it was pure luck that this happened, and I recorded it. 🤩

Did you know you can watch movies on the TV in our game? 🍿 Ok, they are more like slideshows, because making a full-on movie is a bit time-consuming 😅

I'm currently reworking our Steam page. What do you think about this as the first video to give players a glimpse of the different levels in our game?

Sit back and enjoy some web building ASMR 😌

Exactly 3 years ago, we went viral with this video on TikTok, which really kick-started our game dev journey. Our game looks so different today, and to be honest, I still have no idea why exactly this video went viral, but I'm so grateful it happened 🤩

I haven't had that much fun making a video of our game in a long time 😂

More screensaver features: - doubled the maximum speed - separate size and speed for each logo - deleting single logos What other features should we add?

How cool is that? 🤩 One of our followers recreated all the outfits of YouTubers who made a video about our game. Video posted in our Discord by: 🕷️SPIDER🕷️

Created new shaders for our screensaver to match our special web textures. Not gonna lie, I really like some of them 🤩

I can't believe I'm adding even more features to our screensaver 🙈

Ok, I think I'm pretty happy with our screensaver logos now. What do you think? If you have any additional ideas, let me know.

Ok, this is spiralling out of control a bit, but I really love the latest changes to our TV screensaver. Do you have any other cool ideas?

I genuinely love how I do 50% of the work when implementing a new feature for our game, and the other 50% is coming from our community. I would have never thought about adding these things, but it makes our screensaver so much better 🤩

I don't know why I implemented this, but you can now catch the screensaver with your web.
