Hey narnianguy! I just played through A Brief Plunder and I wanted to reach out because the stretch-hose physics mechanic is absolutely fantastic. Watching the cord dynamically bend around dark corners to guide you back creates such a unique, satisfying gameplay loop that carries a ton of potential.
I saw in the comments that a kind review made your day, and it’s completely well-deserved! The opening cutscene and the little atmospheric details show a ton of care. Gimmicks like the hose physics are great for short-form video algorithms (TikTok/YouTube Shorts) because they are so visually compelling to watch in a quick loop.
I run Parody Boat Media, an independent micro-publishing studio focused on viral short-form marketing and community building. I’d love to partner with you to help expand this prototype into a larger, fully polished Steam project managing the marketing, trailers, and Discord setup for a future revenue share so you can focus 100% on the design and programming.
Let me know if you have a Discord handle or an email I’d love to connect and hear what your plans are for this project!
