Haven’t posted one of these in a good couple years, but my friend Kuup made a custom Digimon Pendulum 4.5 shell for me and I couldn’t not make a post about it. #デジモン #Digimon

Mina the Hollower is the best game I’ve played in years. I’d recommend trying it if you haven’t, it’s so good!

I quite liked the Masters of the Universe movie. As someone who grew up watching the He-Man cartoon it felt very respectful to the source material while doing something new. It was cool seeing live action versions of all the characters I had toys of! I hope they make a sequel!

I probably should've done this 10 months ago, but I now have both a website for Spire of Arkodea, as well as a Patreon for anyone who wants to support the project or even just follow the page for free updates. www.spireofarkodea.com www.patreon.com/cw/Arkodea #indiegame #gamedev

Wow, it's been a while since I last posted about Spire of Arkodea! Things are progressing well. Here's the Training Area! At first the Arcade Machines are broken, but you can plug in your handheld GameSystem to play unique training minigames at each station! #indiegame #gamedev

I REALLY wish I knew how to do 3D games because I'd work on a Digimon World 1 and 2 styled game like crazy!! Maaan how I LOVE the low poly style of those Digimon models!!!

I love Metroid Prime 4 but the idea that these 7ft tall axolotl aliens were so insanely into motorcycles that 1/5 of their world’s infrastructure was dedicated to a factory that produced exclusively human-sized bikes for no reason will never not be hilarious to me.

Happy holidays from Spire of Arkodea See you in 2026! #indiegame #gamedev

Aw man I accidentally took all the color out of my Pendulum Color. Digimon Pendulum DeColor Version 6: Saiyu Warriors sprite pack linked below. Now if you’re mentally unwell like me, you can mod your device and go back to the days of black and white LCD. drive.google.com/drive/folder...

Having completed Metroid Prime 4 recently I’ve been thinking a lot about my experience with Metroid. I crumbled to dust upon realizing I’ve been playing Super Metroid repeatedly for 31 years at this point. I’ve gotten old, but Super Metroid hasn’t. It still feels fresh to me.

Spire of Arkodea - the Monoform Chief's house, located in Sector Village. The Chief is full of useful information, so be sure to visit if you're not sure where to go. (Early dev screenshot, graphics subject to change, etc.) #indiegame #gamedev

I quite like Metroid Prime 4. I’m glad I gave it a chance after not being too fond of previous Prime games or first-person games in general.

I never realized how much these foreshadowed the visual style of the Fantastic Mr Fox movie.

I have successfully completed the Tamagotchi Paradise by raising Delumon. #デジモン #Digimon

The modding tools have now been made available on the Digitama Hatchery discord by member altcho1w. Head to the Digimon Projects channel to find the thread containing the guide, method and tools to mod your digivice. discord.gg/digimon

Soon™️

Update: the person who created the modding tools has given permission to share the tools in a few days when a new version is released!!!

Only seemed right to add the appropriate soundtrack to this. Awesome work making this by the way! #Digimon #90s #Anime #Television #Nostalgia #Japan

I was asked not to share the Digivice modding method publicly but I am able to share the result! #digimon #デジモン

On a related note, I’m pretty much out of funding, so I need to either: find more funding (from a publisher, investment, crowdfunding, etc) or: find a job (where I would continue to work on this in the evenings and weekends), so if anyone has any ideas, please let me know! #indiegamedev

Demo is getting closer. #SpireofArkodea #IndieGames #IndieGameDev

Went to the Aberdeen Zoology Museum today and got a free guided tour, worth doing if anyone’s in the area. Learned a lot and got some great inspiration for new creature designs for Spire of Arkodea!

New Star Wars oc just dropped

Kizuna? Bonds?! Who let Digimon spill onto my Pokémon game?

After playing a few hours more, I’m sold. It’s a very fun game. I wish it were bigger with more varied environments, but it might be one of the most fun Pokémon games so far.

Pokémon Legends Z-A is fine I guess, I don’t think it’s nearly as good as Arceus. Honestly, I played for an hour or two and then put it down and went back to playing Digimon Story Time Stranger, which I’m enjoying way more.

Saw this on my walk today and it made me smile. It’s meaningless to most people right now but I promise it will become relevant once people have played Spire of Arkodea! #spireofarkodea #indiegame

I've always said I don't like Digimon games outside of the World-style/v-pet like games. There is nothing in Digimon Story: Time Stranger even remotely similar to anything in any World-style game whatsoever. So I'm surprised to say: Time Stranger is GREAT! Go play it.

What’s your favorite app on the new iPhone running iOS 26? Mine is , but I also like .

I tried the Digimon Story Time Stranger demo. Even though I wasn't into cyber sleuth, I can confirm I found the Time Stranger demo to be really very good. I'm looking forward to the full release.

Bit scummy of Sega tbh

So you're telling me that kpop demon hunters song lyric isn't "like a butter bean"

Rt for the evening crowd, pls look at this cute icy cow

I'd like to share some more about the world of Spire of Arkodea. It's set in a world parallel to our own, usually out of reach to humans. The creatures which live there are called Monoforms. You may have seen in an earlier video but you pick your partner Monoform from these 3:

A bunch of people linked me to the GameBoy Lego today. I'm a bit conflicted on whether to buy it. It looks awesome, and it's no secret I love GameBoy stuff, but... I actually don't enjoy LEGO! I don't have the patience or attention span so I usually get frustrated and give up.

Ray is rad and it's already been a huge pleasure to add a little bit of input to this very cool thing he is doing! There will be a lot more to show and talk about soon.

Happy to report, Spire of Arkodea is receiving some funding and publishing support from Mode 7 @mode7games.bsky.social! This means I'm currently able to work on the game full time, and get guidance from an experienced publisher which is going to be invaluable! #indiegame #IndieGameDev

Here's a small update! This is a pre-alpha test of the battle system based on the mockup I shared earlier! The two combatants are cats because they share an animation set, it was easier... The final game will have way more than just cats... I promise. #indieGamedev #indiegame

Things have been silent for a couple weeks. I've been hard at work - and I don't want to give much away yet - but I want to say the silence is a VERY good sign for this project's future. More to show (and talk about) really soon! #IndieGame #IndieGameDev

I googled "Spire of Arkodea" on a whim and found a video which mentions it already! The fact a stranger on the internet saw it at this early stage and thought it was worth talking about has honestly made my night. Thank you TheDuoDesign! youtube.com/watch?v=CBbE...

Luka through the ages 😊

Oh I almost forgot to share this too! I have a title and a very early draft of an opening cutscene now. Please check it out (and forgive the errors, rough assets and goofy animations, it'll all be polished eventually.) www.youtube.com/watch?v=uvJ5... #IndieGame #GameDev #IndieGameDev

Progress on my game is going really well. Here's how the battle system will look. You actually have a lot of control over what your partner will do, but they might not listen to you if they don't trust you... #IndieGame #GameDev #IndieGameDev
