Made this about a month ago as a 60 min practice and forgot about it! I like how it turned out. I don't play as much anymore, but Anby still one of my all time favorite character designs from Zenless. #zzz #anby #fanart #pixelart

Carbs Toolbar Update 4.0 for #aseprite Is NOW AVAILABLE! www.youtube.com/watch?v=CcrI...

Moments like tonight are why I love streaming, got to meet a dev for one of my favorite games, Voices of the Void, I hope one day I can be that dev in someone else's stream.

scary moment this morning, Unity Hub was just deleted off my pc. The folder was there, but no files inside. Luckily my project files were untouched, an even so I back them up quite a lot. Still odd to see it disappear like that. No trace of it being quarantined either. confusion was super effective*

threw in silhouette anims to regression test the movement 👀 helps strip it down and see if the timing actually holds up lowkey starting to feel good #gamedev #gamejam #werewolf #platformer #unity

Getting close to finishing up all the system for this lil game jam game! will post some footage once I have some of the player animations done and working! really liking how this color palette turned out! #gamejam #pixelart #werewolf

Much more productive tonight! I got level completion and end results screen placeholders in and the flow works pretty well. I think ill knock out the save data next.

I got a few more systems into the game jam game today, but mostly messed with parallax layers, hopefully i can be more productive tonight.

Im having so fun doing a game jam again! Made a mock up, what do we all think? #pixelart #mockup #gamejam

Cogforged is finally at v0.7! Really excited for this build and beyond. This update really starts setting the tone for the story, added a lot more art in, a couple more sounds bunch of UI and dialog fixes! as always I'm open to feedback. reftworks.itch.io/cogforgedleg...

More tarot work today 1st set is just over halfway complete

Been working on this pixel art Tarot Set for a stream widget and I'm really liking how its coming along!

Live over on the purple app. Just hanging and playing games tonight.

Spent a good part of the day tuning background palettes for cogforged. A small tweak, but it reading much better.

Spending some time working on a rhythm game system for a lil side project. Forgot how fun making sound reactive objects was.

I had a blast playing this tonight! Maybe next time I can get past the train level!

Cogforged Update 0.6.5 - Cogforged Legacy reftworks.itch.io/cogforgedleg... Sunday again! that means there's a new update for Cogforged! As always Im open to feedback!

Finally reintegrated the puzzle system and stress tested the whole build. All core pillars are officially in. 0.6 unlocked. Now we polish the prologue and make it hit

New build of cogforged is out! As always I'm open to feedback! Still mostly systems work, but I did add a new quest! reftworks.itch.io/cogforgedleg...

And im back to making some changes to the dialog system, hoping it wont take too long to make nodal.

Im working on a twitch integrated stream game this week. been nice taking a break from the main project for a bit.

Getting back to demonologist on Sundays has been so great, terrifying, but do fun. Love thr new map mechanics.

Some parts of the city feel louder than they should, even when nothing is happening — cluttered with the remnants of things that were never fully finished or fully discarded.

Pixel study using the Fated Eight palette by Digi. Practicing restraint and atmosphere. Still undecided on a title—this one feels more like a moment than a place. #pixelart

Playin some scary games tonight over on the purple app. Excited to play demonologist again!

Working on some fixes and some pixel art this morning. Hope everyone's having a great day!

There are many ways the townfolk have learned to get around Trevithford. The city didn’t fall apart — it just stopped keeping every path open, and people adapted

The test build has been going well so far, and the feedback has been incredibly helpful. If anyone’s interested in testing and sharing thoughts, I’m always happy to hear more: reftworks.itch.io/cogforgedleg... #gamedev

This world is full of things that still work — just not the way they were originally meant to. I keep thinking about how some technologies get pushed to their limits while their real potential is quietly written off as obsolete.

Progress in Trevithford isn’t about gaining power. It’s about what the city decides you’re allowed to keep. Half the machines don’t go by their original names anymore. No one remembers how to pronounce them — only how to use them.

Public Demo slice of Cogforged Legacy is live. This is a system-first build focused on story flow, act transitions, and state handling -- not final polish yet. Feedback welcome, especially on progression and pacing reftworks.itch.io/cogforgedleg...

Order matters to Lucien because chaos scares him more than cruelty ever could.

I keep circling the idea that Trevithford didn’t stop innovating because it lacked imagination — it slowed when loss set in, and survival quietly replaced ambition

In the last stretch of system corrections before I can stress test the demo slice. Getting excited to open the testing up to everyone soon! I got just a couple cutscenes left to get working.

At what point do you start building your steam page? Curious when others get theirs made. I haven't released anything on steam and thinkin this project might be my first.

Pixel art round-up. here is a collection of recent works all done in a 64x64 rez

Still working out this tutorial display. Plus side ive gotten better at stopping part eay through a project instead of trying hyper focus and knock it out Ina single night. This will be tomorrow's problem.

Working on a bioshock inspired mini game/puzzle. Got the rules, generation, and controls down. Now to knock out a little tutorial to explain the rules, and add a few sound fx and music.

It was an amazing weekend. I got to take part in the no kings protests and twitchcon. Im exhausting and i shouldn't walk for a few days, but it was worth it!

Marking myself safe from the umbrellas at Twitchcon. #Twitchcon2025 #rogueumbellas #staysafe #shadyumbrellas

I finally got around to adding mini-map colors, along with parallax and lighting, still got lots of art to finish! #screenshot #cogforgedlegacy
