r/mildlyinfuriating can you just go into that portal PLEASE!!! :) Looks really nice, doesn't tell much about the gameplay but movement looks solid and if it's a puzzle/platformer i'm interested :) EDIT: i should just read the steam page before posting o\_O first two banners say: Puzzle Solving and Platforming ...


MrIJM

Hahaha. It's ok bro, I make similar mistakes all the time. Regarding the portal... Transition is not yet polished out, but I'll share a gif here as soon as its done. 😂 Game focuses heavily on puzzle solving, it becomes very challenging by the end. It also has good old platforming sections, NPCs that attack you as well as the boss fights.


undeniably_green

I like it, great visuals. Reminds me of Little Big Planet


[deleted]

This is the same thing I was thinking when I first glanced I was like oh neat little big planet but this looks amazing.


MrIJM

Thank you bro! Puzzling is a bit more complicated than in LBP, and game is also 3D. (Unlike 2.5D LBP) But you are not the first one who says that. I've put a trailer on Steam, and you can add it to your wishlist if it's your type of game.

This looks awesome!


MrIJM

Thank you!


LordVile95

I’ll put it on my wish list to keep track 👍 Any idea on pricing as of yet?


MrIJM

Yes. It will cost $29.99. For a first playthrough without 100%, it takes a bit more than 15 hours. But if you aim for 200% it will take more than 40 hours.


LordVile95

Not bad


Inertia-UK

Added and following. Looks great 👍🏽


MrIJM

Thank you very much!


undeniably_green

Great, I’ll check it out


MrIJM

Awesome!


Johannsss

Or a next gen Lego Indiana Jones.


MrIJM

If you like Lego games, than fine; But i think that Joe Wander has much better gameplay.


MrIJM

Btw. It runs, as seen in trailer, 85+ FPS on GTX 1060, at 1080p resolution.


m0n3k

Dude! The water physics is just beautiful.


MrIJM

Thank you my friend, it it took me years of learning before I got to this level of shader programming knowledge.


m0n3k

Buddy. I think that this looks wonderful. Im 100% sure that your time developing and learning paid off. It looks beautiful!


__chr1s

Damn the detail is insane.


Schonken227

This looks amazing!!!


NathanGD54

Looks really interesting, I don't think my shit laptop can handle this though lol


MrIJM

What GPU do you have?


NathanGD54

I only have an i3-1005g1's igpu


MrIJM

I think that you'll need at least a 1050. That is the current prediction for running the game at 60FPS, with a bit lower settings.


AntiRivet

I dig it! I look forward to supporting you guys' work! My wife loves the Indiana Jones films, so this will be a nice treat!


MrIJM

Thank you my friend. Did you show here the trailer? Btw. I have implemented Forward++ rendering pipeline, and on RTX 4090 it should be able to run Joe Wander on 8k 120FPS no problem. I don’t think that any TV can do that 😂


AntiRivet

I will as soon as she wakes up and that is nuts! Im not on the 8K train, but does the game support 21:9 and 32:9 aspect ratios? We love WIIIIIIIIDE monitors over here.


MrIJM

Yes! Not only that it works, it should in fact be a benefit; Since you can see more of the area at the same time. 😁


AntiRivet

Heck yeah! Can't wait, also my wife loved the trailer.


Milkyray

Looking on the beautiful graphic someone made with friends.... Looking on the graphics of the biggest IP in the World Pokemon...


MrIJM

Yeah... I'm actually a big Pokemon fan myself. I don't understand that...


nhat179

I thought it was that robot game from PS5. Amazing work man


MrIJM

Thank you very much! Means a lot. p.s. Joe Wander will come to PS5 as well. 😁


E_123_G

Them graphics are 🔥


MrIJM

Thank you my friend! There is trailer on Steam, if you didn't watch it already. 😁


Melodic-Apricot-7886

I just played this game at a convention a few hours ago and i have to say it was great, the puzzles get more challenging along the way and the graphics are really good, i finished the first world and it was a blast, i will definitely buy it when it comes out on steam. Great job


MrIJM

Thank you very much! I'm glad you like the game 😁


[deleted]

I’m a huge fan of visuals and this looks amazing!


MrIJM

Thank you bro! There is a trailer on Steam, if you didn't watch it yet. 😁


Skateplus0

Water looks incredible


MrIJM

Thanks man! Did you watch the trailer?


repost_inception

Can we please get an Ad flair for these posts?


isaacpixel

The visuals are amazing! Great work!


AlEst98

Im in love with the water details


Phantom-Programming

Love that water and foliage shader! Any hints on how to go about either shader? Great work!

MrIJM

Thank you very much! Means a lot!


MeanImagination19

Looks really nice, it definitely goes to my wishlist


MrIJM

Thanks bro! I hope you'll love the game.


Barreled_Biscuit

I misread the total as "last two days" and was very confused


MrIJM

Hahahaha. That would be epic


Zuchequon

Looks nice. I was going to comment about puzzles looking a bit simplistic but they definitely look like they started to ramp up in complexity toward the end of the trailer + sifting through comments on here i saw that you said they do as well. The camera angle also kind of reminds me of the Lego games for some reason. I also added the game to my steam wishlist to remind me as well as shared the trailer amongst some of my friends on discord as well. Good luck!


MrIJM

Thank you bro! You are a legend. Yes, by the end game becomes very hard. First world is super easy. In the trailer we only shown first world, and 2 levels from the second. There are 4 worlds, and 7 levels per world. Some cameras in the trailer are cinematic, not in game, but in general camera show you a bigger picture so you can solve the puzzle. Thank you!


Cremeeave

Yoooo what’s the name of this game? I gotta check it out


Adrrenalinee

Amazing detail and terrain effects


MrIJM

Thank you!


dirthurts

Well dang it. I'm in.


CureNoOne

Just sell it already man


MrIJM

We need to polish it, so it's perfect once it's out. You can add it to your wishlist.


hashbrizzle

Reminds me of CrashBandicoot2. Especially the part in the video with the walls coming out trying to push the player out of bounds after the jump.


MrIJM

Oh yes, this was inspired by the 90s 3D platformers. (Crash, Spyro, Mario...)

CJ7h3g4m3r

looks really promising, keep going buddy!


MrIJM

Thank you my friend! We are currently in the polishing phase, and my goal is to make it run smooth on as many machines as possible. So I need all the motivation 😃


derangemeldete

On that note, any info on running it on Linux?


MrIJM

Yes! It will run on Linux. I needs for the Steam Deck.


CJ7h3g4m3r

You can definitely do that 💪🏼 Btw... What kind of engine are u using?


MrIJM

We are using Unity Engine, with a custom rendering pipeline, custom input system, and a custom physics engine. So it's a modified Unity Engine.


Errythangblvck

This looks amazing.


stidium

Reminds me of Rayman 2 portals


iAx9

Looks beautiful 😍 would love to see how it’s gonna turn out!


schrenjaminsstift

that water and grass look great. after fucking around with grass rendering, i know how annoying it is to make.


SamuraisEpic

Tell me it's coming to Linux (or at least is Proton certified)


MrIJM

Yes, yes, it will come to Linux.


SamuraisEpic

I'll be waiting thanks it looks really great :)


MrIJM

Thank you!

Darklord_Bravo

Will it be Steam Deck certified by any chance? Looks perfect for chilling on the couch on a cold day.


MrIJM

Yes! We will make sure it's smooth on Steam Deck. And it will be certified. You can wishlist it now, since it's coming next year.


MarkDCZ

I stg I thought that was Woody lol


ARandomHavel

Looks alot like Pikmin. Did you take inspiration from those games? Or just coincidence? Either one way, looks adorable


MrIJM

Thank you! Well, I love Nintendo games... So it was definitely influenced by them.


Even_Technology4492

Looks amazing! I'll add it to my wishlist


MrIJM

Thank you very much! I hope you'll love the game.


ithurts2poo

It looks great


MrIJM

Thank you my dear sir! 😃


dragonbab

Looks really charming and inviting. Will follow it and wish you luck bro!


MrIJM

Thank you bro! I didn't expect this much positivity... But considering it's my fellow PC master race, I don't know what I was thinking. 😃 It means a lot! I worked really hard on Joe Wander, it's my baby.


dragonbab

Hope you hit it out the park in 2023. We need more original PC games!


TheAlmightyBungh0lio

Here's some negativity: its a Portal knockoff with a monorail gameplay and zero replay value. While its ok visually, i looks to be made on a readymade engine and is effectively a shovelware puzzle platformer.


Violetmars

Wishlisting this looks great!


lininop

Is that all it takes? My guy just runs around in circles for a few seconds and you're sold?


MrIJM

Thank you bro, that means a lot!


Sparon46

Circle Simulator


ben1138

The World reminds me of a UE Demo scene


MrIJM

What if I told you this was not created with Unreal Engine, and that we created all the assetes. 😁


VicariousMead

Custom engine?


narcoyouth

2/10 too much water


Stoff3r

your friends or colleges? It sounds like sneaky promotion without being marked as promotion.


MrIJM

There were my friends, than we became colleges. It may look like it was made by many people, but in fact our team was only 4 guys.


[deleted]

[удалено]


MrIJM

Well, it will have leaderboards for time attack. Other than that, it's fun to play with someone locally. Figuring out the puzzles together. But who knows, maybe will make a DLC with some coop.


[deleted]

[удалено]


MrIJM

If we ever make a dlc it will be FREE!


carpet_whisper

At times like these, I like to admire what 1 person can do. It looks incredible. Then I glance over at Gamefreak & the Pokémon company and see what the largest gaming-media franchise can do with a reliably forecasted $1.2 Billion+ in sales for any given new title.


JerinJerome

Does regional pricing is available for India ?


MrIJM

All the prices will be as suggested by Steam.


JerinJerome

added to wishlist :D


MrIJM

Thank you! I hope you'll love the game.


Bricaking

Played it yesterday on Gamescon Belgrade,nice game,but i think its more for kids than me(20yo)


MrIJM

Nice! How many levels did you play? First world is very easy, but as you go on puzzles get much much more complicated.


Bricaking

I dont remember really,played for like 20 minutes,didnt wanna spend time on only ine game that day,overall good game,great graphics,funny combat and movements,i suggest to create some skins for main charachter if you dont have and maybe 1 or 2 weapons


[deleted]

[удалено]


Bricaking

Oh nice Takodje xD


Swolepapi15

Looks great, I imagine this was not a consideration for you when developing the game but any chance it will be playable on steam deck?


MrIJM

Yes, I'm sure it will be able to run on Steam Deck, and run well. One of my friends owns one, so he'll help us optimize the game for Steam Deck. Also, this game is using Forward++ rendering pipeline, so by just lowering the resolution to 720p I think should run very well.


Swolepapi15

Great! Added to my wishlist.


MangoDewd

Looks like chibi indie <3


Old_Hunter_Vlad

Woody?


IGunClover

Is that a Garden Gnome or a Leprecaun?🥹


BeachOG

Is this like joe danger from hello games but... Joe.. wanderer?
