Look at how cute they are!! ❤️ After some trial and error, I think we've found a way to make a cuddling animation possible in the game! Had to jump through a lot of hoops in both Spine and Godot, but it was definitely worth it~ #madewithspine #spine2d #gamedev #indiedev #chinchilla

Yippee got the guardian tree and spirit working in the game~ The animations are definitely still rough, and the menu itself is unfinished, but it's cool to finally see all the pieces together. #godot #gamedev #indiedev #madewithspine #spine2d

Playing around with some UI designs. Doesn't really scream UI yet, does it? Also, lowkey forgot that Spine can be used to animate things other than characters. #madewithspine #spine2d #gamedev #indiedev

What do I do when I don't want to learn how to model slightly more complex shapes? I make 2D sprites, throw it on a plane and call it a day~~ #godot #gamedev #indiegame #indiedev

You can now spy on the chinchillas in their homes~~ We added a x-ray function that lets you slide your finger over a building to see inside. There's also an option to fully remove the front wall. #godot #gamedev #indiegame #indiedev #chinchilla

Made a few small changes and suddenly the game looks way better~ (I say small, but I spent like 9 hours redrawing all the 2D art... 🫠) #godot #gamedev #indiegame #indiedev #chinchilla

Kind of unintentionally added googly eyes to the frog hat 🤣🐸 #madewithspine #gamedev #indiedev

Some silly chinchilla doodles I made for a video. The Zelda reference is my favorite one~ #gamedev #art #chinchilla

I haven't been 3D modeling as much as I'd hoped, but I finally made something new for the game! I'd want to add something inside the pot, but what do magical chinchillas even eat? #gamedev #indiedev #b3d #blender

Trying to come up with a new currency on the fly for our chinchilla game. We’ve been using dandelions up until now, but I’m thinking about what other snacks could work as currency. I figured bee pollen could bee a fun option~ 🐝🍯 #gamedev #indiedev #timelapse

What is holding a pencil and doodling concept art....? Been busy trying to edit and post daily videos that I haven't had time to draw. #gamedev #cozygame #chinchilla

Working on new chinchilla animations~ Also, meet Fern! A moth-ical chinchilla who may appear some nights 🌙✨ #chinchillavalley #cozygame #madewithspine #gamedev #indiedev

Long time no update! 😅 Haven't been able to post updates since our progress really slowed down for a few months. But now we've made a New Year's resolution to get back into game dev full time! Here's some updated UI I plan on adding to the game soon~ #gamedev #indiedev #chinchillavalley #cozygame

Officially graduated from university with my partner! 🎉🎉 Now we can fully focus on the development of Chinchilla Valley~ Wish us luck! ✨ #gamedev #indiedev

Took inspiration from Geralt's bath scene in the Witcher when I was making the chinchilla sand bath animation for our game 🛀 #GodotEngine #gamedev #indiedev #chinchillavalley #witcher

Chinchilla introduction #5 (I think? 😅): Pearl! ❤️ Pearl was the second chinchilla design I made after Emil, and it was the first time I had ever used skins in Spine. Pretty nifty to be able to just swap them with the click of a button~ #chinchilla #spine2d #madewithspine #gamedev #indiedev

🧠Big brain move: Use slow motion videos for reference when animating animals, or in my case, chinchillas~ #chinchilla #spine2d #madewithspine #gamedev #indiedev

Just wrapped up the photo capture feature for our game Chinchilla Valley! 📸 Now you can capture all their cuteness in perfect detail ~ 🐭✨ #GodotEngine #gamedev #indiedev #chinchilla #chinchillavalley

Finally added the most important part of the game: Petting the chinchillas! ❤️ #godot #godotengine #indiedev #gamedev #spine2d #madewithspine #chinchilla

Posted a demo reel showing off some of the chinchilla animations as well as some new chins 👀 #godotengine #gamedev #indiedev #spine2d #chinchilla #demoreel youtu.be/YEY7Oy9hU68

Implemented a little dandelion farm patch. Money doesn't grow on the trees it grows on the ground, or at least in our game it does 🤑🌻 #GodotEngine #indiegame #chinchilla #chinchillavalley

It's all slowly coming together! The Chinchilla village is starting to feel lively 🥰🐭 Getting the game style just right is tough 😅 #GodotEngine #gamedev #indiedev #chinchilla

Added a new chinchilla to the the game! Her name is Sorbet 🍓❤️ #godotengine #godot #spine2d #indiegame #chinchilla

Here's a quick time-lapse of decorating in our chinchilla game. What kind of things would you like to see? #godotengine #godot #spine2d #indiegame #chinchilla

Meet Gus, one of the many chinchillas in our game 🐭❤️ #godotengine #godot #spine2d #indiegame #chinchilla

Chinchilla sneak peek! One of the many who will visit your own village. They seem like a fungi 🍄😂 #godotengine #godot #spine2d #indiegame #chinchilla

Making a cozy game with chinchillas, but this guy is sleeping on the job💤 #spine2d #indiegame #GodotEngine

Hello Internet! We'd like to present our first little sneak peek of a game we're working on. There aren't enough chinchilla games out there so we decided to give it a go.🐭❤️ P.S This is Emil and he's proud of his hiding spot. #GodotEngine #spine2d #indiegame
