Long time, no post. As you might know, Giga Girl got greenlit, and I’ve been working on a 1.1 version to be released on Steam. It contains some minor tweaks and small features that I’m hoping will increase the replay value of the game. You can expect a Steam release date later this year, probably […]
Giga Girl got greenlit earlier this summer and will be coming to Steam later this year. We will still add some minor features that hopefully will improve the replayability of the game. Most of these features will be available in the DRM-free version of the game too. If you already own the DRM-free version, you […]
The wait is over! Giga Girl is now available for purchase on itch.io for an affordable price of $3.99 + VAT (or more, if you want). You can also buy the game directly from our site for $3.99 (VAT included).
My personal opinion is that game engines like Unity or Game Maker introduce lots of unnecessary overhead and constraints when it comes to 2D games.

The estimated release date is March 25th. The game will be first available on itch.io and here on invisibletile.com. We would very much […]
Giga Girl is almost finished, but to get published on Steam it first needs approval of the community. Please, take a moment to vote and be sure to spread the word. Thanks!
Thanks for all our brave testers!
I would say the test was a success, as it revealed a couple of bugs, brought up good ideas to improve the game. In addition, a nice set of data was collected automatically. Analyzing this data should reveal the choke-points in the levels – some of which were not planned, and might require some easing up.

As a beta tester you will get early access to the game itself, your name in the credits, and a warm fuzzy feeling for helping an indie developer. This […]
Finding the right difficulty for a game can be a tedius task. I’ve put a lot of effort to find the sweet spot for Giga Girl, where the game is challenging enough to make up for its short lenght, but still feels fair and beatable. Of course the problem is that where I, as a […]
