Ode To Pixel Days soundtrack is the most popular album from Turkey! How awesome is that?!

But there's more! The album is also popular on almost every genre tag of Ode To Pixel Days, but the coolest one is of course the "video game music" tag.

Being in the first page of this list is awesome, some of my idols are on that page! Cheers to everyone who gave a listen to it and downloaded it.

You can still download it for free (click Buy Now and enter 0). You can also buy me a coffee sometime by paying a few bucks. Thanks everyone for the amazing support :)

Let's Play Ode To Pixel Days!

I was just going through nice play-throughs of Ode To Pixel Days. I haven't watched all of them yet but I think the ones I watched are very worthy of posting. So if you're the most hardcore Ode To Pixel Days fan out there, and don't know what to do because you played the game once and got bored of it (let's face it, it's the most linear game of all times), then enjoy these videos that some nice people put a lot of work to.

Hans' First Trip

Here's some little aimless psychedelic toy I made when I got bored making the game a few months ago. I stole the name from "Syd Barrett's First Trip".

Left and Right arrows to walk around and get bored.

Ode To Pixel Days News

Ode To Pixel Days can be seen on Kongregate's front page as of now, which attracts a crazy amount of views for the game. It's currently 15K and counting on, which makes OTPD easily my most played game ever.

It also got featured on Newgrounds and got a Daily 4th Prize, which is nice. I didn't even know that they got a 4th prize :D

I really thought it wouldn't be liked on Kongregate and get some niche kind of attention over Newgrounds. The love OTPD is getting really exceeded my expectations.

I also got a long, nice article about OTPD, which is here:

IndieStatik

I also got a short Jayisgames review, which is also somewhere here:

So thank you for your support and love. I'm very glad that most of the people are enjoying my game. Thanks :)

About Indie Game: The Movie

Two days before I watched "Indie Game: The Movie", I have designed my game, Ode To Pixel Days, for the first time. When I watched IGTM, it inspired me so much, I felt really motivated to create my game. As you may know, Ode To Pixel Days is a very personal game for me, I see some people connecting emotionally with it and it makes me so proud. I put so much things from myself in it, I feel like I've shared a valuable thing with other people.

I watched IGTM and loved it. I watched it again, I made my friends watch it too, they all loved it. Every time I watched it, it touched my heart and motivated me to continue making the game. My game is not a big game, it's just a little browser game. But I am so proud of it, and I am thankful to James and Lisanne for making such an awesome movie.

It took more than 6 months to finish and release the game, but there were very depressing times, when I did not want to go on with it. I remember one night, I was terribly depressed about the game, I started losing interest in it at some point. I watched IGTM and cried when Team Meat released Super Meat Boy, Edmund Mcmillen talked about his emotions about the release. A kid, staying up all night to play Super Meat Boy... That scene always kills me. I remember after watching the movie, my depression fading away, I was back to being determined to finish this game.

And I have finished it.

Today, I released it.

I am very thankful to James and Lisanne for creating such an inspirational movie. It means so much to me and I'll continue watching it again and again in the future. Thank you for everything :)

I'd be honored if you guys tried out my game. Thanks :)
