• Telly the TV on Sale for 99 Cents During Steam Winter Sale 2024! - 19 December 2024

  New Story Cutscene mode Coming to The Beginning & Ending of the Telly the TV! Coming Q1 2025 A story cutscene mode will be added to the beginning of Telly the TV, and I'm also going to rework the ending of the game as well! I've already got work started on some in-game pixel art which will feature the story behind our hero Telly. Telly the TV started as an HTML5 game meant to be played in one sitting, and evolved into a premium Steam Title. The original game had five different channels. I added a sixth channel to the game including three more levels, and another original song for the release here on Steam. I also added thumbstick & joystick support, and a level-select mode so players and speedrunners could easily navigate to their favorite level for practice, or getting back to where you left off. Your reviews and comments have inspired me to change & improve Telly the TV. As I continue…

• Nominate "Telly the TV" for Best Soundtrack for This Year's Steam Awards - 27 November 2024

  Enjoy the Music in Telly the TV? Please Nominate us for "Best Soundtrack" Looks like it's that time of year again! The annual Steam Awards are nearly here! We need your help, please nominate Telly the TV for "Best Soundtrack." Take a listen to all of the different songs I composed just for the game: Yummy Yummy Success Monster Party Game Over Let's Go Floatin' thru Space Impending Robo-Queen Duel Temple Boogie All of these songs were created with Tools anyone can use on their own iPhone! I purchased a garageband extension app called Saga Synth. It is an emulated version of the Yamaha YM2612 chip found in the Sega Genesis/Megadrive console. I also used the free IOS version of Garageband to edit the music together. Thanks to all the people who have spent time playing, wishlisting, and sharing Telly the TV and we hope you'll nominate us for best soundtrack!

• Telly the TV :: Invincibility Patch 2.5.8 - 7 November 2024

  Our players discovered a bug & we just fixed it! Greetings television land, We just had another time submitted to our Speedrun Dot Com page for Telly the TV, and the new WR is 26 minutes and 33 seconds! Our speedrunner also uncovered an unknown bug up to this point, so we came out with a new update: Players could get invincible, go back to the main menu, and retain invincibility for an entire level. We added a couple lines of code to fix this issue. Check out the newest WR speedrun of Telly the TV! Please let us know in the comments if you have any feedback for Telly the TV, or if you have experienced any bugs. We also just started a Devlog Series on our YouTube Channel so give us a subscribe over there to stay tuned to our latest game development work. Thanks for tuning in, Extra Mustard

• Telly the TV :: Patch 2.5.7 :: Joystick Issues Addressed - 4 November 2024

  We're listening and continuing to make changes to improve Telly the TV We've received some valuable feedback lately from user reviews on Steam. Here's what we addressed in this quick update: Added joystick deadzone to improve playing with joystick Although this was against the original intent of the game, we added another button you must use to go down, through the jump-thru platforms. You must now press the Right Shoulder button (RB or R1) and the joystick direction must be down as well. To account or any issues going down with the platforms, joystick controls now requires a stick-force of 1 (full value) to go right or left Please respond to this post and let us know how the game performs with these changes. Joystick controls were added as a convenience for players, however it was never intended to be the primary control scheme of the game. The d-pad offers the most accurate control, a…

  Living Technology Telly the TV has Officially Launched on Steam! It's wild being listed between two huge gaming companies, Sega and Activision, but here we are! I am literally sandwiched in between them on the new games page right now! The irony is, I grew up playing the Sonic the Hedgehog Series so being next to them on the Sale page is mind blowing!

• Telly the TV Now Launching Tonight! Midnight (Eastern) 9 PM (Pacific) - 24 October 2024

  Manually Launching the Game TONIGHT at Midnight Eastern After careful consideration, we've ultimately decided it would be best to release the game manually at Midnight Eastern, 9 PM Pacific time. This will allow users throughout the continental US to play the game tonight. This will also allow users on the other side of the globe access to the game during the middle of the day. We appreciate everyone's flexibility and advice on this matter. We're super excited to launch Telly the TV with all of the optimization improvements and thumbstick support, which we've mentioned in the past.

• Small Patch Before Tomorrow :: Telly the TV Version 2.4.6 :: Hotfix - 24 October 2024

  Quick Hotfix Update Before Launch It was possible to soft-lock the game in stage 2-3, we've adjusted the placement of some level assets to fix this Adjusted animation behavior for electric cannons to help reduce lag It was possible to get damaged as the player was exiting the level, we adjusted some code to fix this We decided to remove the code that allowed you to exit full-screen mode. This was causing some issues with the game That's all the updates for now, if you experience any issues during the launch of the game, please let us know in the Telly the TV community board here on Steam, and we'll be happy to address any issues ASAP. Thanks for Tuning in Viewers!

• Major Update for Release Day (Fri Oct. 25) - Telly the TV Version 2.4.5 - 23 October 2024

  Final Update to Telly the TV (Version 2.4.5) before Launch Day (Friday Oct. 25) As requested by players of the demo, we've implemented thumbstick controls. You can also play with D-pad support too. Improvements: There are jump-thru platforms in the game so its still possible to travel down through them. If you're playing with a thumbstick, we've required an axis-force of 1 (the full value) in order to go down through platforms. Added a window resize mode that allows users to exit the full-screen mode once (press control R on keyboard). This mainly applies to users on PC who may be interested in resizing the window for speedrunning purposes, not to users on steam deck. Steam overlay functionality & achievements have been implemented Reworked the title screen code to allow for more efficient animation and controls Reduced the volume for every individual SFX and music file throughout the e…

• Telly the TV Demo 1.2.4 (Huge Play Mechanics Update) - 10 October 2024

  Telly the TV Demo 1.2.4 now live Thanks so much for all the great feedback we've received so far in the community. We're constantly working to improve Telly the TV before our launch on the 25th. We fixed a few major issues that we've been working on for a long time. Player now Jumps Once Per Button Press This is a standard convention in nearly every platformer game created. We also wanted to have this standard in our game, but we could never figure out how to work around the limitations of the Gdevelop engine. The default platform behavior caused Telly to jump like a bunny if the space bar or jump button was held down. Our team worked for about 10 hours straight to figure this out, we iterated all of the controls manually, and finally after a ton of trail and error it worked! Adjusted Enemy Placement and Behavior in Haunted House (Level 2-1) Our enemy named Devil-y was causing a little…
