Ducky videogames party - in progress!
For 6 months we have been developing a new game in our duck universe. DVP is very different from Alexio! You can verify this by visiting the game page:
https://store.steampowered.com/app/1820770/Ducky_videogames_party
The game has a demo. You can easily find DVP on gamejolt and itch.io. A demo will be available on Steam at a later date. I will be glad if you add the game to your wishlist, it will help a lot on release.
A group of ducklings find a mysterious "100-in-1" cartridge for Quacktendo... And now they are forced to play ALL GAMES to save their souls from SCP-3000! Will friends become his prey? Really 100 microgames, several fun modes, 90s atmosphere. Are you ready to help?!

Thanks to the few who bought Alexio. It did not turn out quite the way I expected, the development was long and hard. Alexio owners will have an additional discount on DVP at the time of release, I think. Provided I find how it's doing! And if you are reading this news without buying Alexio, it will be great if you support the duck team with a purchase and a good review. But this is a harsh old-school indie game in every sense, with all the consequences! I wanted to do some improvements and additions to Alexio, but quickly realized that there was no point in doing so. Nobody wants this, let's be honest. I hope things get better with the new game. See ya!

Alexio in 60 fps
Quack! Time to play in Alexio, ducklings!
However, Alexio turned to be much more complex and harder game! I love explorations and challenges, collectibles and secrets, because of that all 12 levels of Alexio stuffed with that content to the eyeballs! I believe that the levels and their content are the main feature of Alexio. Hopefully, someone can uncover all the secrets and make a complete design of home location…or at least a part of it. Otherwise…it was all in vain!
To be honest, despite all my (and those who helped me) efforts, the game turned out to be far from perfect. But, I hope, quite interesting and sincere. I want to believe that I can managed to at least partially recreate that warm nostalgic atmosphere of the 1990s. I would like to to do better, but I do not have enough time, skills and money… If Alexio does not become my first and last «big» game, the next one will be better!
I want to thank once more time all the people who helped and supported that game! Especially programmers- without them there would be no game. RWG – so skilled musician who wrote great tracks and melodies, also thank for donators – a few of my friends and fellows, who gave me some money. All these wonderful people you will see in the credits when you pass Alexio.
As you can imagine, for me the release of Alexio is a significant event. I can only believe that the game will attract some attention. And once more…I realize that my game is another oldschool budget platformer, but I am also proud to say that this is MY oldschool platformer!
Enjoy your game, duckies! ːbb_rubber_duckː

Where can you spend points in Alexio
Now you have more reasons to cap your points?!
Yep! Tome to up the ante, coins collecting and earning points are more important now! And there is one man, who can help us… Ururush – the businesscat! Let’s take a look at level 0 – a place from which Alex journey begins and all of collected stuff are stored. We can collect all the puzzles, records, figurines and find all our friends. But…it’s pretty empty here, isn’t it? Something is missing. And at this time Ururush is coming!
That’s simple. 12 levels – 12 furnishing items. Near the end of every level Ururush will be waiting for you and will happily trade your points for 1 furnishing. I won’t show the beauty of fully furnished location, but, believe me, it’s worth it! Especially when all collectibles are collected, and friends are found! Some elements of location are animated and the boombox plays a cool beat!
Don’t forget its not a usual cat. That’s cat-moneybags and his prices are extremely high! Are you ready to spend so much money? Well, if the achievement for the first place in table of records among ducklings is already yours, why not to do it? However, you try to be really cool ducky to save enough money for Ururush’s prices. Either you explore every dark side of the level at standard difficulty (there will be more coins), or patiently grinding points at easy difficulty. Or the 3rd variant – you can find your own way, who knows? And don’t worry, achievement for furnishing items is not provided, because it is a challenge for most hardcore gamers, who like to watch the improvement of your place! In addition, you can collect coins while exploring the levels in search of collectibles. Remember one more thing – secrets are everywhere!
P.S.: You can spend your points to unlock the challenge door after failed attempt. Really comfortable when you have instantly teleport to the door after the checkpoint, right? Let me also remind you, that for 50000 points you earned a bonus life! And this game every single life is worth its weight in gold!!
That’s all duckies! This is the latest content improvements to the game for enhance coin collecting and replayability. The last word to our main hero – Alex: “Quack! Quack-quack-quack. Quack, quack, quack” (Greetings! Take some sports and eat vegetables. And buy his game, this man really tried! Good day! See ya at Alexio!)
