Hello dear Allegro members,
As some of you already know, in my spare time, I'm working a on an Action/Puzzle game called Cipher Pusher.
It's about blocks, vortexes & seafood.

Cipher Pusher is a 2D top down Action/Puzzle game where you will have to push, carry, rotate, and connect some blocks!
But wait you can also remote-push, multi-push several blocks at a time, perform chain reactions… to achieve even greater combos!
You play as an astronaut without any weapon… and though you will have to dodge thousands of missiles, encounter hostile octopus-like lifeforms,
experiment strange mechanisms to solve puzzles…
If you're interested, watch the trailer:

I'm coding this game in C++. And I'm also coding its engine, based on Allegro 5.
I have great pleasure in launching its Steam Greenlight !
If you liked the trailer, or my previous work, please go to Steam website and vote YES here !
As you probably know, this is important because it will allow the game to get published.
Liked this trailer?… Please help to spread the word !

Thanks for your time!
Co-op? You magnificent devil!
Co-op is not required to solve puzzles 
Co-op was really efficient in the early feedback days to find news bugs/crashs during events!
anto80, you particle beast! 
Do you create new particles real-time or are they pre-allocated in memory?
I take care of the memory! No worries 
That's a fixed length list of pointers.
Any pointer to Particle is newed then destroyed.
If there's no room in the fixed length list, I force destroy on the eldest pointer.
Looks awesome, anto80! Voted yes and hope it gets published. That looks amazing. I'm also really glad that a polished game finally noted Allegro at its core. You did a really good job of that in the gif! I hope that's in the title screen or something.
Thanks a lot.
Yes I like Allegro a lot!
Very proud of being part of the Allegro users community!
Allegro logo won't ever disappear from any of my exes 
And I like to say that I use Allegro (on dev forums the tigsource.com or gamedev.net)
Votificated
I been voted.
And suddenly, last night at 1 AM in the morning...
Cipher Pusher got Greenlit!
Well, I'm so happy because it was rather fast: it took less than 10 days! 
Thanks to all people who played/voted/commented/spread !
You are awesome.
Awesome news! So does that mean it's available now or that it will be shortly? Keep us posted!

^ Here, I made that easier for you to read.
Thank you very much.
Your efforts are appreciated.
It's still a bit hard to read. Can you add more colors please?
Thanks for your interest.
Unfortunately I still have lots of stuff to do.
Obviously level design, some new features, find solution related to IRL feedbacks.
That includes also lots of stuff non-related to the code.
Sorry but I'll have to ask you to be patient.
