ShibaRunner is a platformer where Shiba has to save Shibina and collect as many coins as possible on the way! This project is completely non-AI, no assets or code have been AI generated.
New ShibaRunner Demo!
Thank you guys. <3

Back from Japan, fixed two more bugs that made the game crash.
This may be the last devlog, thanks for this amazing time! I will post a demo with the latest version.
Fix bug where game gets stuck if player drowns+11▶Fix game freezing on "Reset Save" in settings+6-5▶Sixth Day IRL Devlog! (10/11/2025; ~6 hours)
This was one of the less productive days. I did not get my cable back as planned, though I will get a reimbursement for it!
Things I worked on:
- Find my cable
- Fixed a bug that crashed when you clicked reset save in the settings
- Fixed a bug that made the game black if you drowned
- Worked on the LED implementation via Express JS
# Shiba — What Did I Do?
First Day (5/11/2025; ~9 hours):
The first day, this is where everything starts. I‘ve been through over 15 hours of travelling and still worked on my arcade for way too long. The progress here might‘ve not been the most productive.
Things I did:
- Picked all my parts
- Got the Raspberry Pi 5 4GB working
- Prepared and got a first version of the game on the Pi
- Added a language switcher to my game
Second Day (6/11/2025; ~11 hours):
I was still tired, it was much better though. Half of the day went to sanding the machine, the other half was helping people with their issues — at least that is what it feels like to me
- Optimised the game on the Raspberry Pi
- Used sandpaper to clean the wood for the machine
- Got a splinter in my finger
- First measuring attempt for the screen mount
- Helped a lot of people with the Raspberry Pi setup
- Worked on testing and fixing the shiba-installer.sh script with CyberIntruder
- Soldered most of my electronics
- Mounted the controls onto the control board
Third Day (7/11/2025; ~9 hours):
The day before I helped Marcel and Flush with the VESA mount for the monitor backplate. They mounted it a few minutes before we left and it was completely not straight — that was funny. Guess what happened to me though… We got hotpot in the evening!!
- Soldered some stuff (mostly buttons)
- Got the approximate Center of the backplate to drill the four holes for the screens VESA mounting point
- Mounted the screen into the machine
- Painted the whole arcade machine (2 side panels, 1 frame, 1 control panel)
- Helped a lot of people with the Raspberry Pi setup & input problems
Fourth Day (8/11/2025; ~10 hours; moving machines included here; it was painful):
Ah yes… We might‘ve stayed up till 4:something AM to get our luggage — whatever! I used this time to code and fix bugs in my arcade machine. I also optimised it for the arcade usage (fullscreen, autoload on boot, and so on). During the day, we brought the machines there and set them up!
- Left the housing early to setup our machines at the arcade
- Worked till 4AM (from about 1:30 AM) to optimise the game for the arcade & fix bugs
- Set up the machines at the venue
- Helped a bunch of people with movement / joystick issues
- Resoldered Noga‘s electronics
- Got symbols painted on my arcade machine by Sophie, thank you
- Helped Zac with graphics issues
Fifth Day (9/11/2025; ~8 hours):
The venue actually looked cool and not messy today, I like!
- Mostly showed the game to locals
- Tried to get people to visit the venue (feat. Sophie, Paolo, Jerry, Stein)
- Helped Ang to debug an issue with her game on the arcade
- Helped others with some problems
This took way too long to write…

------------ CONTROLS ------------
A/D or ARROW LEFT/RIGHT: movement left right
W or ARROW UP: jump
ARROW UP / DOWN & ENTER: navigation in menus
ENTER: accept dialog
S: shoot a bone (this is a weapon / must be bought in shop)
SPACE: skip the intro cutscene
------------ PATCH NOTES ------------
These may not be complete, check devlogs and commits for more details:
New things added:
Added 2 player split screen (very alpha atm)
Modified and improved:
Updated the main menu to show the endless mode & 2 player split screen
Updated the main menu to use the same "scrolling" through buttons effect as the settings
------------ BUGS ------------
There can be bugs in endless when switching "biomes".
Items bought in the shop will currently NOT be synced to ShibaDB.
Some new features do not have sound yet. This includes the spike traps, the lava and I am also planning to add a new soundtrack for the Northern Territories!
Besides that, I am currently not aware of any other bugs. Feel free to report them in "Additional Feedback" in the reviews or via Slack!
------------ TROUBLESHOOTING ------------
If the connection with ShibaDB does not work for you and you use a restrictive browser (such as Brave or Safari), make sure to turn off your tracking protection (Brave Shields in this case).
DISABLE YOUR TRACKING PROTECTION AND ADBLOCKERS!!!
You need to sign in with Slack on ShibaDB for this to work.
See https://shibadb.xvcf.dev/auth/login
ShibaDB saves the progress after every completed stage and retrieves it when you load the game. Might take a few seconds to load, depending on your WiFi. If you click play too fast, it will use the default save game (everything reset). As long as you don't finish a level in this state, your save will not be overwritten!
------------ FEEDBACK ------------
Please leave feedback as detailed as possible. Be fair, it makes Shiba more fun for everyone!
Feel free to give ShibaRunner a paw if you like it! There is a lot more to come!

------------ BUGS ------------
Items bought in the shop will currently NOT be synced to ShibaDB. Will fix this soon.
Besides that, I am currently not aware of any other bugs. Feel free to report them in "Additional Feedback" in the reviews or via Slack!
------------ TROUBLESHOOTING ------------
If the connection with ShibaDB does not work for you and you use a restrictive browser (such as Brave or Safari), make sure to turn off your tracking protection (Brave Shields in this case).
DISABLE YOUR TRACKING PROTECTION AND ADBLOCKERS!!!
You need to sign in with Slack on ShibaDB for this to work.
See https://shibadb.xvcf.dev/auth/login
ShibaDB saves the progress after every completed stage and retrieves it when you load the game. Might take a few seconds to load, depending on your WiFi. If you click play too fast, it will use the default save game (everything reset). As long as you don't finish a level in this state, your save will not be overwritten!
------------ FEEDBACK ------------
Please leave feedback as detailed as possible. Be fair, it makes Shiba more fun for everyone!
Feel free to give ShibaRunner a paw if you like it! There is a lot more to come!

Added a 2nd stage
Added more story
Added a level progress bar
Added stage-based coin indicator

More enemies, specific plans already exist as well!

-------------------------------------------
What I will NOT add:
Mouse movement / UI controls: This game is and should be arcade optimized! I would like to stick with buttons!
New main menu: The menu itself might change a little, I do not think that there will be a completely new one though!
Proper game ending (for now): There is a lot more story I have planned so please don't ask for that, it will eventually come!
-------------------------------------------
Feel free to try out the different difficulties! I have now implemented the Random difficulty where everything is crazy and, well... unpredictable!
I hope you have fun and please leave fair feedback as this makes Shiba more fun for everyone!

I've also fixed a black pixel issue in the nut sprite & included an outline for it to match the artstyle.
See https://github.com/RafaeloxMC/shiba/commit/ad58528938fd3e1ab994b5b0612782631fdad86c

I have made a lot of improvements since the last devlog. The main menu now looks a lot better. The settings as well as the credits menu is implemented. I have also implemented a difficulty setting. The players lives as well as the enemies behavior depend on that setting. There is new music as well!
The map just got larger, prettier and also more detailed!
Have fun playing the demo!
Modify game for first ship + improve start on map+164-31▶Game ready for first ship+492-67▶Added main menu & settings, added details+672-67▶Today I have added a lot of small improvements and a new title screen, which is not finished yet. It is still missing a nice background, and the settings are not implemented either.
The squirrel enemy also throws nuts at the player now and it's behavior also got a lot better. It is now a ranged enemy and I like it a lot more!
As a QoL change, I have added a small fade animation when the player dies, so they don't see the "hard cut" of the level resetting.

I am currently working on my own assets, as there are quite a few things I don't like too much about the assets I am currently working with. I am also creating a new player character, as this one was just a placeholder to learn how movement works in Godot.
Added flipping the player sprite when moving in different direction+17-12▶Created the base for the game, will soon change character and map+1024▶Initial commit+1366▶I created the Project and set up Godot and Hackatime.
