for #screenshotsaturday here's some work in progress for the not-so-venerable mr Morgathrax, in the midst of trying to corrupt the very fabric of Aseprite #aseprite #pixelart #indiedev #gamedev

Thanks for hosting AlcheMice looks amazing! Save the Forest has a demo coming out soon™️! If small-scale tactics roguelite ala Into the Breach combined with strategy rpg elements like recruiting new units and tons of upgrades sounds good, check it out! store.steampowered.com/app/3832200/...

New trailer for Save the Forest is out! Now I can finally go back to actually developing the game 😅 #indiedev #gamedev #indiegame #monogame #pixelart youtu.be/CtWbUIkeU14

Touched up the capsule image a bit before the new trailer/demo release, I feel like I could do a better job conveying what the game is about but this is basically the limit of my artistic ability. If you see this and think "he should really fix X" please comment X! #Indiedev #steamcapsule #indiegame

Added some stars and a cool_moon.png 😎🌛 ... maybe it's time to actually start working on that new trailer now #indiedev #indiegame #monogame

I am a sucker for "world map" style screens in classic snes/genesis games so decided to put this as the in-between-levels transition screen. Haven't decided what to do about the black background yet... #screenshotsaturday #monogame #indiedev #indiegame

Patching the "last" (famous last words) major game design flaw in Save the Forest, the cheesy "heal fully before moving on"-strategy. Now healers can only heal damage accrued in the last 2 turns, so healers should hopefully feel more dynamic and less cheesy! #ScreenshotSaturday #Turnbased #gamedev

Taking a cue from LinkedIn the Hedgehog faction has decided to leverage new technology to gain an advantage in the marketplace #screenshotsaturday #indiedev #b2bsaas #pixelart

The last of the forest dwellers to be corrupted, I present to you the HedgeBot 3000 #indiedev #hedgehog #pixelart

A public demo of the banned 1995 CD-ROM ‘Forbidden Solitaire’ is being leaked TOMORROW on #Steam. Authorities advise gamers to exercise extreme caution. Campaign groups, such as ‘Justice for Timmy,’ go further: urging players to delete all traces of the software if they are tempted to install it.

Finished the Squirrel faction's corrupted look. Do they look sufficiently corrupted? #indiedev #pixelart #gamedev #squirrel

Repost if you agree #indiedev #newyears

The Save the Forest playtest is running for another week (ending at Christmas!) One interesting thing has been that the difficulty was way too high at the start. Gradually lowered it and now I think it's at a good level for first timers! #indiedev #gamedev store.steampowered.com/app/3832200/...

Two weeks left of the playtest, so far almost 300 levels completed in total, 9 boss kills, a lot of great feedback! Biggest learning so far is that ragequitting is real🌲 If you want to join the fun there's still time! store.steampowered.com/app/3832200/... #indiedev #gamedev #インディーゲーム

So it turns out that someone actually did beat the first boss of the currently running playtest 4 days ago, I just misinterpreted my analytics data... I don't know how to feel about this #indiedev #gamedev #playtest

Posting a screenshot every day until someone beats the boss of the (currently running) playtest! If you're a fan of mounted gnomes, try out the game on steam! I'll be running the playtest until Christmas. store.steampowered.com/app/3832200/... #indiedev #gamedev #playtest #gnomes

It's not looking good for #teamcannon

Posting one #screenshotsaturday every day until someone beats the first boss of the playtest I'm running. This is the engineer and her cannons. They can fire on their own but she likes to think they fire just a bit better when she's around. store.steampowered.com/app/3832200/... #indiedev #gamedev

Posting a screenshot from Save the Forest everyday until someone beats the first boss Playtest is open until christmas, so if you've ever dreamed of a "buff dudes only" build in a tactics roguelike this is your chance! store.steampowered.com/app/3832200/... #indiedev #gamedev #monogame #pixelart

I've just made the playtest for Save the Forest publicly available for signup. I think "nervous" doesn't quite cut it so I'll just say that it's a big deal to me if you'd like to test the game! store.steampowered.com/app/3832200/... #indiedev #gamedev #monogame #turnbased

I fear no code.. but that thing - making my own input text field in Monogame... it scares me #monogame #wrappingtext #indiedev #gamedev

For today's #screenshotsaturday I present to you the corruption of the raccoon pike. I'm launching a first public playtest on Steam very soon, so if you're interested in measuring your wits against this guy stay tuned! #indiedev #gamedev #pixelart #evilraccoon

Been in a large bugfixing-trying-to-get-stuff-ready-for-public-playtest hole for a longish time now, but I'm getting close! Enjoy this boss minion with the working name Cogo ⚙️ #pixelart #indiedev #gamedev #minions

One of the most interesting and fun things about playtesting is the ways other people manage to break the game in ways I couldn't have imagined. My brother sent me this the other week #indiedev #gamedev #pixelart #logging #turnbasedthursday
