Big news! I realized it's gonna become important to have a better logo for future public events, so I hired @afroog.bsky.social to give the game's logo a revamp, and they knocked it out of the park! Here's both their HD version and a pixel-art version rendition by me.

When you want to capture the sound of rocks tumbling sometimes you just gotta tumble some rocks. 😅 #sounddesign 🔊

Dribble 2 is chock-full of cool mechanics, I'm honestly kinda envious how quick Tony pumps them out! 😅

Got some great new SFX in from @caseportman.dev this week! Filling up the sounds missing from the Jacu-Sea level before the Chicago Indie Game Showcase in September. #screenshotsaturday

Don't sleep on this!! Even though I have the pleasure to work on the sound design, The Yokai Club is honestly shaping up to be a very unique horror experience. It's bloody terrifying.

The Samurai. Fur-ever loyal. Fixed on the target (probably a biscuit).

Sorry for the silence! I think I burned myself out with the run up to Next Fest last month. Progress will resume once my mind fully resets but right now I'm listening to my body - turns out solo dev is HARD!

Got some small things done early this week, then @caseportman.dev got back to me with a new batch of sounds so I spent the rest of my dev time implementing those. As always he did fantastic. Here's a look at the sound effects he did for the lifeguard Bizbot. #screenshotsaturday

Someone lend me some time for my 582,451 game ideas plz

I just checked out the code for Flynn (Started in 2016) and.. oof. If I ever feel imposter syndrome looming - I'll open up one of my older projects. 👀 Seeing that growth in black and white helps so much, until the next imposter jumps in. 🧠 Rinse and repeat. #gamedev
