I started a new company called Annihilator LLC for my personal game dev. I have transferred all my IPs to it. annihilator.games forwards to Salt & Pixel as I work on the new site. In the mean time, I can start hosting the preorder/restock within the next 2 weeks.

I got GBStudio's web export to iframe inside a construct 3 .exe export. Basically a webpage inside a webpage, nothing impressive, it took less than 10 min to figure out. I'm able to produce my own PC and Mobile releases.

The line up so far!!!

Okay... so it might work better as back panel art. saltandpixel.itch.io/the-damned

The Damned cover is like 98% complete. Goal was to make it feel like a huge adventure. saltandpixel.itch.io/the-damned

Progress on The Damned cover. saltandpixel.itch.io/the-damned

The Damned is getting new cover art as well. It's also due for an update. having it posted here, makes me not like the skull face. lol You can play the demo here: saltandpixel.itch.io/the-damned It's a beat em up for the GBC.

Going to do a preorder/inventory restock. Better if they are done at the same time. I'll also have The Damned (beat 'em up) development preorder alongside it. Join the newsletter, if you haven't: zc.vg/hrVkA

Popping back in to say one of my most anticipated games of the year is out later today! I haven't really played around much in this genre but I was a massive fan of the NextFest demo for it so im excited to dig into the full thing! @pasgame.ca store.steampowered.com/app/3525970/...

The first pre-order campaign for a SEGA Mega Drive/Genesis game is ongoing on Homebrew Factory! We are happy to help OrionSoft fund and produce the physical version of Escape 2049. The goal has been reached, so production is guaranteed. ➡️ www.homebrew-factory.com/megadrive-ge...

Updated the logo too. I think I'm 90% there. But once this is finished, I'll be doing another pre-order/inventory purchase.

Annihilator's new cover art. #gameboycolor

The final thing won't be watercolor. I still need to clean up the sketch a lot. I wanted to see if I like this on a box.

Before/after. I don't know. Painting is not my thing. Spent 10+ hours on the turd to the left. But with the pen - 2 hours. It's like I was actually having fun and being inspired or something.

Annihilator is getting grammar and bug fixes, and new art. V.2.5 is now available saltandpixel.itch.io/annihilator I'm working on a new cover as well

Annihilator is getting another run, soon. Can't wait to update on that a bit more... but - I'm currently fixing bugs and redoing some cutscene art. The cover art is also getting redone. So those first round games are never happening again, in that form.

I host a game dev meetup in VA. I'm planning an event at the end of April. I'm trying to find all the homebrew devs and media people from Richmond up to DC. Reach out if that is you.

Teasing the forest level. This is an old tile set. I'm recognizing that this style feels a little outdated. But anyways, go play the demo for this Game Boy Color Beat 'Em Up saltandpixel.itch.io/the-damned

No update, but just a reminder that I have a beat em up in the works for GBC: saltandpixel.itch.io/the-damned

Who wore it better?

Got permission to share this artwork. What do you think? @kikottan.bsky.social helped with creatures. #pixelart #gamedev

I've been exercising my painting abilities for The Damned. WIP, but I started a mock up for the box. I'm also thinking about the trailer. I want to have a few "story" pieces flash on screen. Anyways, Go play The Damned Demo!: saltandpixel.itch.io/the-damned

Ready to mash some buttons? #gameboycolor The Damned Demo: saltandpixel.itch.io/the-damned Also, join my newsletter to stay updated on pre orders: zc.vg/hrVkA More announcements coming soon!

The background image is a mash up of paintings. The forest is by Ivan Shishkin. Spirit of the forest by Odilon Redon I did some photoshopping.

Okay, I think I'm happy with this cover and feel.

I like this vibe.
