It's been a while since I posted some #NES #pixelart. 9 colors across the four palettes. I've been assured this can be made to work with a 16x8 color attribute if the programmer bangs their head on the keyboard for long enough.

This is so, so well-articulated.

Mina the Hollower is out! I was going to just make a quick sprite, but I got a bit carried away and just ended up making a full on high-res mockup instead. Haven't even got around to playing the final release! Gotta fix that.

This artwork idea is brought to you by a probably 15-ish old notebook that contains world building and gamedesign notes for a game project that will probably never happen. Thanks, past sabaku!

I've got enough systems and tools that I now can just sit down whenever and update some of my prefabs for #ProjectZwilling with cute things like dialogue options and save variables. It feels more and more like a game 😌 #gamedev

ngl I think the graffiti system might be the coolest thing I ever did for a video game and that makes me proud!

Just watched a Square Enix interview with Hiroyuki Ito about Dungeon Encounters, which includes pearls of game design wisdom such as "I put a value of 12 there because it felt right" and "I can't remember what that's for".

Hi! You can enter tavern and adventurer's guild interior of #santria 's Ravenheim now! Looking forward to populate it with shady folks! #gamedev #indiedev #pixelart #gamemaker

Another small mockup with the tileset I've been working on! The graphics for the first area were starting to show their age so I've remade them from scratch (hopefully for the last time!) Also, the tileset finally matches the ruins theme of the battle background used in this zone! #pixelart #gamedev

i was having this strange problem where if a pigeon was currently in flight, it would prevent the player from being able to go up and down diagonal staircases. to solve this i simply put the pigeon code into the same script as the stairs

Day 97: 2025/12/12 - 10h Improved the logic for receiving items from cutscenes so it respects available space, fixed minor bugs with the inventory & mouse control of save file processes in the journal. Still more polish to do, but nearly finished! #DailyDevlog #Moonshell_Island #gamedev #gamemaker

This is rough *pre-alpha* footage of our tactics prototype. We got a fair bit of basic gameplay implemented. Battle scenes are missing lots of details and animations etc. The idea was to re-create advance wars gameplay first, then drip our new mechanics into it after. #gamedev #pixelart #tactics
