Showing a bit of everything in this #screenshotsaturday This is recording from my GBun frontend that introduces the pc options screen. Also some gameplay from the Pisto river region featuring a time-warping ghost that refuses to die lol #gamedev #indiedev #gameboy #shmup #gbstudio #gbc #retrogaming

A raw footage sneak peek of some of the unlockable "support skills" in Witches and Butchers, such as a heal for all the party members, a tornado shield that deals multiple hits to enemies, and a device that duplicates ally shots! #gamedev #indiedev #screenshotsaturday #gbstudio #gameboy #shmup #rpg

A little showcase of some of the "enemy encounters" you will find in Witches and Butchers, they are repeteable mini bosses that you can find while traveling the world, upon defeat you get crystals and ingredients to level up your characters! #gamedev #gbstudio #screenshotsaturday #indiedev #gameboy

More assorted platforming gameplay, every day less janky, still some more fun work to do in this front, but I think it is already far away from the "awful" state these levels were before lol. #gamedev #indiedev #screenshotsaturday #gameboy #gbstudio

Funny orange elf #gamedev #indiedev #screenshotsaturday #gameboy #gbstudio

Most of last 2 week's progress was made to optimizations and other under the hood stuff so have 20 seconds of spamming the A button in an owl to make it go hoot #gamedev #indiedev #screenshotsaturday #gbstudio #gameboy #rpg

Sin ninguna razon en particular... Les recuerdo que Witches and Butchers contará con dialogos en Español e Inglés. Despues del lanzamiento se considerarán idiomas adicionales! #gamedev #indiedev #gbstudio

When in doubt, spin to win! Work in progress janky implementation of Clarissa's new secondary skill, a spin attack that hits both directions in quick succession! #gamedev #indiedev #screenshotsaturday #gbstudio #gameboy #retrogaming #witchesandbutchers

In Witches and Butchers, the protagonist, Lluuvia, can summon magic cauldrons to cook and eat food for leveling up, as well as teleport to previously visited locations This was heavily inspired by the bonfires of Dark Souls games! #gamedev #indiedev #screenshotsaturday #gbstudio

Last days were spent reprogramming the logic behind auto and manual fire, reducing input lag , making attack cooldowns more consistent and overall making the combat feel fluid! It's a chaos the gbc can barely handle lol #gamedev #screenshotsaturday #gameboy #gbstudio #shmup

I'm currently working on improving the gameplay of a character that i neglected for a long time, Clarissa, the only melee character in game, had to come up with a melee attack that felt fun despite the limitations, #gamedev #indiedev #screenshotsaturaday #gbstudio #gameboy

One of the oldest areas in the game, that barely had any visual modifications since 2022 now has a redesign, i think it looks pretty cool, like a mountain Bonus image, a dungeon using the same tile set but it bugged out because it surpassed the tile limit #gamedev #indiedev #screenshotsaturday

#screenshotsaturday or more like "crappy photos of Witches and Butchers running on a Game Boy Color and on a 2003 laptop running Windows XP Saturday" #gamedev #indiedev #gbstudio #gameboy

A few places you’ll visit in our game... #indiegame #pixelart

the music: 🌜🌆✨ the gameplay: 💥🎯👩‍🍳🔪🗣️🔥🦉 Some gameplay footage by our assistant programmer @reinawallaby.bsky.social she's tweaking the cooking system to make it feel more fun and satisfying! #gamedev #indiedev #screenshotsaturday #gbstudio #gameboy

A new demo build of Witches and Butchers has been released, in both Itch and Steam! This will be the latest demo build before we fix all the bugs and balancing towards the final release! Links in the replies! #gamedev #indiedev #gameboy #gbstudio

Testing the steam build of witches and butchers that I will upload in the following days, I used Godotboy for the frontend and added some features such as borders and key remapping, once i get rid of the game-specific code and tidy the code up I'll share the code #gamedev #indiedev #gbstudio

Very very very busy fixing bugs and preparing everything for a last pre-release demo! So I'm sharing actual screenshots for #screenshotsaturday now featuring all three borders that can be used on the non-gameboy versions of the game #gamedev #indiedev #gbstudio #gameboy

Witches and Butchers gameplay showcase! a trailer of sorts showing many aspects of the game such as combat, rpg elements and the cooking system! #gamedev #indiedev #gameboy #gbstudio #retrogaming #shmup #homebrew #rpg

Have some WIP platformer stage gameplay because I love sharing clips of the game glitching out lmao #gamedev #indiedev #screenshotsaturday #gbstudio #gameboy

This boss is a fun experiment. The screen scrolls making it feel like you are chasing him, and if you survive enough time he just gives up and runs lol. #gamedev #indiedev #screenshotsaturday #gameboy #gbstudio

I'm live working on #IsleofReveries! 🔗⬇️

Testing a chapter 2 dungeon in Witches and Butchers, that one shotgun enemy is beyond broken, it will be my priority to make it fun to play against lol. #gamedev #indiedev #screenshotsaturday #gbstudio #gameboy #shmup #retrogaming

More gameplay footage of Witches and Butchers showcasing more aggressive enemies, i have spent the last weeks tweaking and balancing the enemies, theres still some work to do but I feel satisfied. #gamedev #indiedev #screenshotsaturday #gameboy #gbstudio #retrogaming

Another combat-tweaking experiment, enemies are way more aggressive and the player base movement speed has been increased to compensate... then I realized this is the tutorial stage so maybe i should leave this aggressiveness for later. #gamedev #indiedev #screenshotsaturday

Hello! Omen of Duality is a Super Hydlide / Ys / Zelda inspired game I've been working on.

Ah yes, Witches and Butchers' Cooking system now has manual and auto mode, in manual mode you have to play a button-pressing minigame where you can get bonus food if you play it well! #gamedev #indiedev #gbstudio #gameboy #screenshotsaturday

ys 3 nes might be the funniest port of this game yet

Yes I assure you, using some kilobytes from the already scarce memory to play an owl voice sample is important for the gameplay #gamedev #gbstudio #screenshotsaturday

In Witches and Butchers, there are some more experimental enemy types such as these ghosts who have the ability of altering the scroll speed of the dungeon, and other effects that will be added in the future. #gamedev #indiedev #screenshotsaturday #gbstudio #gameboy

Finally found a way to fix one gameplay issue that always bugged me out, enemies would dodge outside of the camera making combat annoying, now they dont step back or move forward instead if they are at the right edge of the screen. #gamedev #indiedev #gbstudio #screenshotsaturday

Those armored ducks can be a pain in the butt sometimes! #gamedev #indiedev #screenshotsaturday #gameboy #gbstudio #retrogaming #homebrew #shmup

Some progress in making platformer levels less crappy, theres a lot to do but it already feels better than in previous builds, just a matter of balancing numbers and fixing bugs #gamedev #indiedev #screenshotsaturday #gbstudio #gameboy #retrogaming

I dont have a clever comment to add to this gameplay clip lol #screenshotsaturday #gamedev #indiedev #gbstudio #shmup

In Witches and Butchers there will be an unlockable alt skill for each character Our funny elf Clarissa's alt skill is... certainly a choice. (Probably a placeholder, probably not, who knows) #gamedev #indiedev #screenshotsaturday #gbstudio #gameboy #shmup #retrogaming

Now that I think about it, There are few GBC games with a cooking/crafting system, now I get why, had to add a "Loading" sequence when displaying recipe ingredients otherwise the gameboy couldnt keep with it . #gamedev #indiedev #screenshotsaturaday #gbstudio #gameboy

"Hello, inflation artist?" "I'd like to commission a stable economy, please"

For #screenshotsaturday I'm sharing some UI improvements, Merchants and shops now can sell recipes, now when cooking food and leaving the screen it will ask you if you want to go to the inventory and eat the food. Cooking screen can display up to 5 ingredients now. #gamedev #gbstudio #indiedev

I have been working on a web based tool named "HexMaster5000" that calculates memory addresses of variables in gb studio games. I'll explain the use case in the replies. lobosandia.com.mx/tools/hexmas... In following days ill release the source code on my github page #gamedev #gbstudio #indiedev

It's one of those "Raw buggy gameplay that makes the poor game boy color slow down to a crawl" videos, This is going to be one of the late game dungeons. Probably should turn off the scanline fx lol #gamedev #indiedev #screenshotsaturday #gameboy #gbstudio #shmup #retrogaming

I'm working a lot on the emulator that will be used on the steam release of the game, based on GodotBoy, I added features like border support, and i'm able to read the emulated game's memory and show variables in a HUD on the top left #gamedev #indiedev #screenshotsaturday

As usual when the progress I make in the game is more in the "under the hood" category, I just like to share a random gameplay footage of Witches and Butchers #gamedev #indiedev #gbstudio #screenshotsaturday #gameboy

Keeping with the tradition of showing raw buggy footage, this is an attempt to make platformer levels suck less, theres an enemy type that follows you around, falls off cliffs and even jumps, it's very janky but for now it's the best I can do lol. #gamedev #screenshotsaturday

Showing some improvements to certain menus in Witches and Butchers. In the Inventory, now you can see faces of the party members showing how much they like certain food, affecting the stats they provide, also now theres an ingredient list! #gamedev #indiedev #screenshotsaturday

Sometimes I just like sharing messy gameplay clips, it is funny to see the glitches and collision issues and remember this when it's all fixed #gamedev #indiedev #screenshotsaturday #gbstudio #gameboy

A small addition to Witches and Butchers allows to check a recipe's description when pressing select in the cooking screen. This is useful for meals like the Coyota which is more of a northern Mexico thing lol #gamedev #indiedev #screenshotsaturday #gbstudio

Initial version of a boss that occupies the whole screen, since it is part of the background, had to make some palette tricks to give damage feedback. Later I'll code the actual fight lol #gamedev #indiedev #screenshotsaturday #gbstudio #shmup #gameboy

In Witches and Butchers, some of the bosses will have to be fought in Platformer Mode, so I added the ability of shooting diagonally, this is still under development and will be tweaked a bit #gamedev #indiedev #screenshotsaturday #gbstudio #gameboy

Actual screenshot from Mega Man II for the Game Boy. Mega Man is amused.
