I've been playing a lot of Vampire Survivors, and I gotta say, the Castlevania DLC is insane. Including over 100 characters and almost 100 music tracks is impressive. Not to mention a lot of the remixes are the best these songs have sounded.

Usually, when I post, I have something specific to show off, but this time it's just a general update on how the game is looking. Also, check out the sweet Head Over Wheels remix #dyztopia #rpgmaker

Assists are working again 😎 In Element-based games, it's annoying when you need that one specific character to exploit that one specific elemental weakness. Well, now you can summon the back row and have them help you out! You even use their resources, though it'll cost you Hype up front. #RPGmaker

Reworking the HUD

I made up my mind, but here's a question that's been going through my head these past two months. For writing/storytelling, is it worth it to bring back a character from the dead if they have a worthy story to tell? Does that "worthy" story justify potential plot holes?

NEW TRACK! I want to be vague about this song to avoid spoilers, but it's probably my favorite Dyztopia 2 song so far. www.youtube.com/watch?v=goCi...

I'm using a new Battle Core, so I have to resequence Akari's affinity skills, which gave me a chance to redo her Attack and Agility skills. #rpgmaker

I am still alive! - I have been on hiatus for a long time. I started dev again last month. - I VERY FOOLISHLY override some important Dyztopia 2 files, causing me to lose lots of progress. -I've been working with new plugins that support platform mechanics, which means I have to learn new stuff.

Devastated reading about today's layoffs. Our industry deserves so much better.

Making asymmetrical characters is all fun and games until you have to sprite two different walk cycles.

Here we have the main cast... The format of the game now is pretty interesting... each new Escape Space introduces one of these amazing folk. They'll also join you're party at that point as well once found. #rpg, #indiegame, #rpgmaker, #PanicAttackRpg, #digitalart

This'll be sappy but true: As an artist, I *need* to create. For my own soul. To process my experiences. To express myself in ways where words fail me. I'm glad I kept going, and I hope you do, too. You can do this 🖤

A problem with making art is the aftermath of being in the flow can be such an emotional crash. You're back in the temporal world and there's no one who understands what you've done and what you went through.

There is a certain dread writing about dystopias (the genre) these days that wasn't there three years ago.

Very legit doodles

the cozy game community needs a content creator that's gonna be a bit harsher on the games they play and not just automatically love every single game that has a farming or fishing mechanic

Eufree is doing a crowdfunding for Dyztopia's JP translation! (Full disclosure: the money raised goes to Eufree, not me. I'll be donating as well.) plicy.net/Plus/Project/7

Thanks, I wanted to replay this but I'll just play the original instead

New update is out. All of the romance achievements have been condensed into one. Now to have some wine about it.

The Deluge remake is officially live on Steam, just in time for its showing this weekend at @tmgexpo.bsky.social! Come play it for yourself at TMG or wishlist it to stay up-to-date on its release! Wishlist now: store.steampowered.com/app/3779440/... Thank you all for your support!

This is called a concentration camp

Apologies for the lack of updates! Birthday week has been much deserved rest, but I'll try to push out the achievement fix by the end of the month. Maybe there will be some other goodies in there, too 👀

My remix of "Black Knife" from DELTARUNE is out now! Please go check it out! Thumbnail by @porkndogs.bsky.social www.youtube.com/watch?v=PL-j... #DELTARUNE #deltarunespoilers #DeltaruneChapter3 #RoaringKnight #vgm #indiegame #gamedev #gameaudio

I never take being a dad for granted. I cherish every moment I get to spend with my kiddo and share in their interests, their hobbies and am there to comfort them when they're sad or worried or stressed. It's an honour to be a dad, and I try to do my best every day.

#DyztopiaPostHumanRPG Maybe Clyde got to her?

Just a reminder that "no" is a full sentence. You have the right to turn down work without giving an explanation ❤️

I've been a bit quiet lately, and that's because a bunch of real life priorities have taken over. Hazards of being a #solodev working in my spare time. Thanks so much to everyone who's been following Shimmershoal so far. The hiatus is temporary and hopefully short. #gamedev #indiedev #indiegames

It's my birthday today 🥳

#DyztopiaPostHumanRPG version. This has so much meme potential with fictional villain infighting.

HAPPY DUCKING PRIDE!!! #pixelart #spriteart #lgbt #pride #transrights

Once game dev stops. I'd like to play all of the remakes of my favorite JRPGs. Persona 3 Reload Paper Mario TTYD Etrian Odyssesy 3 HD And now Final Fantasy Tactics... These are all bangers, and I've been pressing skip for too long!

As father to a genderfluid kiddo, I'm super proud of them this month and always. And I'm also proud of all of you! Givin' off that big positive dad energy this month for everyone 🏳️‍🌈

Jonathan Joss--voice actor of John Redcorn from King of the Hill, and Ken Hotate from Parks and Rec--was killed in a homophobic hate crime today. I'm so angry.

I like Undertale. I don't like this.

Super Mario Bros. Deluxe contains an unused "Devious Flip Block" in its files. While its code has been expunged, dataminers theorize it would have acted like an evil counterpart to a regular flip block, trapping Mario underneath it. A dramatization is provided.

Dyztopia finally got a Steam Deck review! This is important bc it was playable with a specific Photon version, but now it will be default (after another review)

Bog Bash died so ESP Fire could live.

can yall just start playing more rpg maker games instead of getting mad that a team of 30 wasn't working with 2 quarters & a paperclip for their rpg. I can assure you there's solo rpgm devs working with 2 paperclips and a nothing. You can put them on a big pedestal! They'll really appreciate it!!😊
