Starting to define Veilkeeper’s visual identity. Moved from grayscale into color using the amber / purple palette. Focusing on readability + consistency across UI icons. First set that feels like it belongs together. veilkeepergame.com/devlog/post?... #pixelart #gamedev #indiedev #veilkeeperdev

Fixed a subtle issue in my tag system: Typos didn’t break anything—they just silently failed. “pooison” = no poison effect, no error. Now all tags are validated at startup against a master list. Flexible system, but with safety. #gamedev #indiedev #veilkeeperdev

Art of the Veil #1 Learning pixel art as I build Veilkeeper. First original asset — a selection crystal for the combat grid. Started rough. Ended with something I’m actually proud of. #veilkeeperdev #gamedev #indiedev

Devlog: Unit Selection & Movement Units can now be selected and moved across the grid. • Clear movement range • Fast tactical positioning • Distinct unit roles Starting to feel like a real tactics game. #VeilkeeperDev #IndieDev #TacticalRPG

Units on the board. Now it's starting to feel like a tactics game. #veilkeeperdev #gamedev #tacticalrpg

Veilkeeper is a tactical RPG where your army shrinks the deeper you push. Venture into unstable rifts. Leave units behind to maintain your connection. Build a shard worth returning to. How far can you go before the line breaks? In development — veilkeepergame.com

Spent the weekend at Dragon Realm Con helping @hordeofviscount run the Horde of Viscount booth. Watching people pick up a controller and react to an indie game in real time — that kind of feedback doesn't exist online. New connections and good notes. Back to Veilkeeper. #gamedev #indiedev

Heading to Dragon Realm Con in Danbury this weekend to help @hordeofviscount.bsky.social show off Horde of Viscount — a Game Boy–style metroidvania now on Steam. If you're there, come say hi. Wishlists on Steam here: store.steampowered.com/app/3927580/... #gamedev #indiedev

Devlog 01 — Foundations 🛠️ #Veilkeeper groundwork is taking shape. • Combat systems in dev • Data-driven repo set up • Logo entering final polish Focus: making the tactical layer feel lethal. #GameDev #veilkeeperdev #IndieDev

Hello, my name is Joonas Turner and I am looking for new projects to work on. I have a long experience working in all kinds of games. I am primarily looking for work as a Sound Designer and Music Composer but I am useful as a Game Designer as well. #gamedev #indiedev #gameaudio

Here's the sneak peek at the commissioned Veilkeeper logo. Art by @zorbius15. The placeholder era is ending and I can't wait till we can do the full reveal when it's all finished! #gamedev #veilkeeperdev

Have a nice weekend, y'all! #indiegame #gamedev #indiegamedev

We have an OFFICIAL RELEASE DATE for Horde of Viscount, the "retro-vania with subweapons as advanced movement, but finite amount so use wisely," Link in Bio as well: store.steampowered.com/app/3927580/... #hordeofviscount #indiegames #gameboy #retrogames #metroidvania #ActionRPG

Following up on the v0.1 design — why tags instead of a damage triangle? Every weapon carries a damage type and delivery method. Every armor carries a tag. The system looks up the relationship and returns a multiplier. New weapon type = new data entry, not new code. #gamedev #veilkeeperdev

Small milestone today. Veilkeeper is now officially registered on Steam and has its AppID. Still early development, but the pieces are falling into place. Your army shrinks the deeper you push. #gamedev #indiedev

Been thinking about what happens when a unit goes down in a tactical RPG. Permadeath? Benched for a few fights? Rescued before the battle ends? Each one changes how you play completely. #gamedev

Testing Discord crossposting for Veilkeeper

I've been working through the structure of Veilkeeper this week. The game is built in layers. Tactical combat A shard you build and expand Rift campaigns with relays and logistics Community and stream interaction Each layer stands on its own, but each one enables the next. #gamedev #indiedev

pieced together has officially launched on steam, it’s always been a dream of mine to create a game and wow now it’s here!! screaming!!! #indiedev #cozygames

Swapped in a sharper placeholder logo across all channels. Still AI-generated, still temporary — commissioned art is in the works and that reveal is going to be worth the wait. The crescent moon isn't going anywhere though. That's Veilkeeper.

Instead of a level selection screen, my game Staraway has a magical telescope. You can point it at stars in the sky and warp to them :3 #gamedev (Unedited gameplay footage, everything subject to change!)

📣Announcing BEAT WEAVER! The new 3D multi-track rhythm game that rewards your playstyle as much as your precision. Solo developed with handcrafted music 💖 Wishlist on Steam: store.steampowered.com/app/4265140/... Watch the trailer in 4K 60fps: www.youtube.com/watch?v=nG_F... #indiegame #solodev

Designing Veilkeeper's combat core — v0.1 is deliberately small. Three unit types on an 8x8 grid. No abilities yet. Just tags, positioning, and composition. If the tactics don't work here, nothing built on top of it will. #gamedev #veilkeeperdev

Excited to announce that @zorbius15.bsky.social will be creating artwork for Veilkeeper! 🎨 Check out his work: www.zorbius15.com #gamedev #indiegame

Early days on development, got a lot of foundational work done for Veilkeeper — a stream-integrated tactical RPG. Here’s the current placeholder ai art for the game while I work on getting an artist to refine it into something truly amazing!
