By far the most challenging walk angle I've done so far. Skirt and hair sway are intentionally exaggerated to make her stride feel more confident and dynamic. What do you think? #pixelart #goth #blonde #walk #walkcycle #skirt #animation #indiedev

This time I tried my hand at animating side walk animations for my protagonist. The animations are symmetrical except for hairstyle, axe and the glowing mark. What do you think? #pixelart #pixelanimation #indiedev #solodev #goth #blonde #walkcycle

First animation of my protagonist: Hope. This was lots of fun but also quite a challenge. I never tried 8-frames female walk cycle before. Let me know what you think about it! #pixelart #walkcycle #indiedev #solodev #goth #blonde

Can't decide on the hairstyle for my protagonist. Which one do you like best? #pixelart #indiedev #solodev #goth #hairstyle

This feels like an early birthday present for me! Rogueliker decided to review Abyss Chaser and in a very favorable tone too :) #indiedev #solodev #roguelite "Abyss Chaser is a crunchy, sword-swinging action-RPG, and it just got a hellish update rogueliker.com/abyss-chaser... "

Progress on my protagonist. Trying different perspectives to make sure that the silhouette works at every angle. Gives a cool "spin" effect if animated. Still not sure if the pixel count is enough... #pixelart #gamedev #indiedev #solodev #goth

Can't decide if I should go for blue or purple tint. Which one suits the "gothic" vibe better? #pixelart #indiedev #goth

Abyss Chaser just got reviewed in Steamgifts Magazine vol. 16. It also features an interview with me. It's the first written review of my game. So happy that this happened:) #indiedev #gamedev #review #interview heyzine.com/flip-book/aa...

And here it is. After two years of development Abyss Chaser is finally available on Steam. If you were waiting to hunt demons as a biker rebel angel, now it's the time! Get it now with 10% launch discount to the demonic price $6.66. #indiedev #gamedev #solodev store.steampowered.com/app/3273740/...

Noon on the launch day is a perfect moment to find out that your save system was just pretending to work. Anyway, all good now. No more issues found. Hitting the big green button in 5 hours. Wish me luck! #indiedev #solodev #gamedev #alittlestressed

I've heard devlogs were a thing so I tried my odds for the very first time as YouTube content creator :D Here's the video about Abyss Chaser where I talk about the genesis of my game. Enjoy! #devlog #indiedev #gamedev #solodev youtu.be/5KIGUI7bQRc

Eisheth - silhouette and idle animation update. #gamedev #indiedev #solodev #abysschaser

Now that the core of Abyss Chaser is done and proved in the Next Fest it's time to work on content for full release. Here's my progress on one of in-game characters: Eisheth, Abaddon's ex-girlfriend. #indiedev #solodev #gamedev #abysschaser

It's truly an amazing feeling to have your game reviewed by a real YouTuber. I don't think I ever appreciated enough that these guys put their time and effort to promote our games. Really excited to see the very first review of Abyss Chaser on YT: www.youtube.com/watch?v=a-M8... #solodev #indiedev

Abyss Chaser Demo is now available on Steam. If you enjoy #roguelite or #roguelike in general, give it a shot :D www.youtube.com/watch?v=b3mw... #indiedev #solodev #gamedev

I've just realized that in the upcoming Next Fest I'm going to compete for player's attention with 418 other roguelikes... While there are for example only 63 farming sims. I guess this highlights the importance of picking the right genre when starting an indie game. #indiedev #gamedev #solodev

Friendly reminder to all #indiedev who already have a Steam page up. It's important to revisit your uploaded Steam assets once in a while and refresh them with more recent content. It boosts the quality of your page and gives you a chance to acknowledge the progress you've made since it was posted.

What do you think about the trailer for my upcoming demo relase? #indiedev #solodev #gamedev #roguelike

I really recommend all #indiedev to join the How To Market a Game Discord server and enable notifications on the event-reminders channel. I've just learned that BIG Festival submission is due tomorrow and I happen to have an eligible game :) #gamedev #solodev discord.gg/upzreVf

I played this video as a background noise but it's surprisingly valuable and I believe relevant for my #indiedev and #gamedev. We all know that content creation is crucial to promote our work but I rarely find advice on how to start it helpful at all. Beginnings are tough. youtu.be/ES4q_qC1AKw?...

I often get the question "Why should I play Abyss Chaser instead of X or Y?" When I designed my game I never wanted to outbest Hades or Binding of Isaac but instead to make something for people that enjoyed playing them and wanted more. Just as I did. #gamedev #indiedev #roguelikedev

This Christmas I'd like to wish all my #indiedev friends a lot of inspiration to come up with great ideas and a lot of perserverence to make them come to live. Most importantly though a lot of joy and happiness that making games should bring you. #gamedev

My fellow #indiedev friends! How did you come up with your studio name? About Bitrunner... I've always liked how Cyberpunks are also called Edgerunners. Being a #solodev in the world of AAA mega corps very much feels like being one. And the "Bit" part cause I'm a programmer by heart. #gamedev

Reminder to myself and fellow #indiedev. We all know that wishlists are super important but it's even more important to not turn developing your game into a wishlist chase. It's a sure way to kill the passion and joy of creating it and make yourself miserable. Speaking from experience. #gamedev

Opening this starter pack back up! Again this list is HIGHLY CURATED so if your page is indicative of you being an indie game dev or independent artist feel free to comment ALSO requirement to join is you have to SHARE THIS POST 🖤🖤🖤🖤🖤 #indiedev #gameart #digitalart #solodev #oc go.bsky.app/E8hRoHu

I'm curious how do you guys finance your #indiedev game projects. Publishers, day job in/out of our industry, crowdfounding? What works best for you? I personally do an 8h/day contract job as a programmer in AAA company while making my passion game after hours. #gamedev #solodev
