Some old artwork of Max Neon that I still find really cool!

Resonance Breaker is Neon's finishing move, available to use only when they're maxed out. This, of course, gives up their maxed state for a big burst of damage! #pixelart #indiedev #gamedev #AdventNEON

Did y'all know Neon's run animations were different way before launch? They used to have this kind of Naruto run before High Speed State got coded into the game, prompting an update that improved their default run, with the addition of a sprinting sprite. #pixelart #AdventNEON #gamedev #indiedev

I should go ahead and update my pinned here. I draw character art and do gamedev, and I recently released my solo-developed project, Advent NEON! You can follow me over on the game's account too! Or check out and buy the game for yourself (It's got a demo!): store.steampowered.com/app/1528260/...

Hope you all are having a great start to the year!

alright

Been playing this today and it's definitely worth a look - it's like Socket meets Smash with a heavy combo/dashing emphasis. You really feel the solo dev vibes in all the ways

Here's my thread of 2025 games made with Black leadership you should check out. I'm not an advocate of supporting things just because X group made them - I share genuinely unique games that have something special about them that I think are worth checking out. I just focus on #blackgamedev

Advent Neon by @cryogx.bsky.social - this game rules! IMO one of the best of the Sonic inspired platformers, with a lot of juice & a very clear voice. It's also 100% solo dev'd & VERY impressive. It's also got a demo. I helped a bit with the Kickstarter. store.steampowered.com/app/1528260/...

alright

Advent NEON is the coolest goddamn game I've ever played in my life (Cryo, quote that in the Steam description)

The plushie campaign unfortunately didn't its target, but it won't be the last attempt at getting some merch made! I'll give an update on the next move down the road 👌🏾

Think fast! And happy holidays! #AdventNEON

Have a Merry Christmas! Remember that Neon's holiday cheer scales to [insert any level beyond "solar system" from that one powerscaling chart]!

IT'S TIME! Everyone, lend me two of your hyperfixation dollars; The Neon Makeship campaign is LIVE until December 28th! 🚨We need 191 more pre-orders for the plush to get made for everyone, so let's get it done! 🚨

🚨🚨New @makeship.bsky.social campaign inbound! 🚨🚨 For those of y'all who've been waiting for a Neon plush: December 18th is your time to make one real, but we'll only have 10 days to do so! Get notified on launch! www.makeship.com/petitions/ne...
