Hey, Rusted Moss is on sale for $10 right now, too. Give it a shot! If faeries, rusted machines, and grappling hooks weren't enough, the pixel art visuals have a crunchiness and color blocking that remind me in the best way of titles like Cave Story and Momodora.

Day 5: Shopkeeper

To celebrate the holiday season the Rusted Moss merch store will have a storewide discount of 20% for the rest of the month. Visit rustedmossmerch.com to get your official merch! Happy Holidays!

We're doing a Rusted Moss advent calendar over on our discord. The themes are influenced by how our community responded in a survey we posted. We also share some fun Rusted Moss stats over on our discord for each day related to the theme... Day 1: Red Velvet

Another little set piece that was cut due to not fitting in flow wise. It was super cool though...

Check out MrVindowski's piano cover of one of our game's tracks - Eglantine! 😍 www.youtube.com/watch?v=gm9F...

Overgrown version of that winter update experiment. Did not end up getting used because the art style didn't fit with the rest of the game.

This was another unused experiment from our winter update. It didn't quite fit into the art style of the rest of the game.

Been going through some old folders recently so here's another unused concept from our winter update!

Scrapped experiment from the RM winter update.

Happy Halloween! 🎃 We posted a fix for Ameli controller rebindings and previously had hopefully patched up the memory leaks some people were experiencing. Because halloween, we also pushed a silly little change for just today. (Not a content update or a new character. Just something small!)

This run is going on right now!! Go and watch to see some great play and commentary: www.twitch.tv/celestecommu...

Lighting system we used for the DLC zones ☺️

Play as Fern if you like! There might not be a Titania to search for, and the witches don't have as much power in here (thankfully), but you can explore the world with your somewhat trust-worthy friend: Puck! drive.google.com/file/d/1D_Xs... #Blockbench #Minecraft #Figura #Pixelart #3D

Daily sketch again yay, ( I wanna draw more but I'm so busy :> )

Now inside the game! There's still a bunch of animations and implementations left to do but its always nice to see the model inside the game. Puck in particular is pretty nice to see! #Figura #Minecraft #Blockbench

Our merch store just launched today! Got some shirts, mugs, and postcards: rustedmossmerch.com

Just got this today! Happy early birthday to me!!! @rustedmoss.bsky.social

Thanks to @nocapsbb.bsky.social's "7 sick indie games made by women", I've recently tried an indie game called Rusted Moss on Linux. Its grapple mechanics do take some time to get used to, but it's quite fun once you get used to it. #RustedMoss #Linux #LinuxGaming youtu.be/9wi0jEoI_9s?...

We should be launching our store next week for those interested in getting their hands on Rusted Moss merch!

i started playing Rusted Moss and im surprised it doesn't have more of a fan base industrial scifi and fairies? you sold me instantly an awesome metroidvania with an interesting world, great combat, platforming and upgrade system

Highly, highly recommend Rusted Moss for movement tech sickos. You don't get many movement upgrades (though guns can double as those) but the grappling hook is so much fun and has so much nuance, exploring and trying to get to obtuse locations or complete obstacle courses feels fantastic.

#blutoid #indiegames #metroidvania Rusted Moss got a crazy amount of free contemt updates post launch adding several hours of new contenrt. I loved the game super fun one of my favourite metroidvanias in a while @rustedmoss.bsky.social

No hate to people that dislike our game (wasn't made for everybody!) but we got a recent negative review that was pretty funny and made us laugh. #indiedev #indiegame

This game deserves more attention. It’s an extraordinary Metroidvania with unique gameplay. I think it’s on special offer on Steam right now, go check it out! #metroidvania #pixelart #indiegame #indie #steam

Old Rusted Moss Promo sketch. #art #pixelart

hey, uh. i think rusted moss might be the best metroidvania ever made. it's just so incredibly fresh. there's like, almost NO overlap with "normal metroidlike upgrades" and it sells its core concept really really well. the true final boss is also just an incredible sequence? and this postgame. WOW.
