I'm really sorry for the lack of updates on my new projects.. I recently moved into a new place, which has been exciting but also a ton of work! (It's a very old home 😅) Thanks for sticking around tho ❤️ Means the world to me and I plan to get back to game deving soon!

Someone left a very interesting Steam review for my game and I just had to make a video on it. Enjoy 🍄

Nothing to see here. Just something I've started working on recently... 👀

It's a great day for cozy indie games 🥹

I'm testing the waters with a new game idea that's really speaking to me. Honestly I've thought about making this for a while now. The burn out got to me tho 😅 Might be a lil while till I share anything new, but I promise it'll be worth it! 💜

Sorry if I don't share much on the new game for a lil bit. I've hardly had the time to work on it lately because I'm still super busy with moving into our new place 😭

There are just some games that stick with you that you wish you could experience for the first time again. @botanymanor.bsky.social @somehumbleonion.bsky.social @studiodrydock.com @sandwitchdev.bsky.social www.comfycozygaming.com/2025/07/16/c...

Not sure if I'm loving this effect, but I made it so enemies turn red as their attack charges up. It makes it easier to time your dodge rolls, so if anything I'll keep it as an "easy mode" setting or something like that 👀

lil preview of some sound effects I've been cooking up 🔊🔊

Creating SFX for my new game is proving to be a real challenge 😅 I'm by no means a professional sound designer. Kinda just doing what I did with Smushi and mix/modify samples I record or find. It's really satisfying when you get it right though!

Guaraná-inspired low poly monsters I'm modeling for ABYSS X ZERO! Animating these was a lot of fun! Music: Crystalline - UNSIGHTED OST by @ironfairy.bsky.social #gamedev #indiegame #lowpoly #blender

Trying to polish the Parry ability with some more visual feedback. It's coming along c:

AHHHH the Smushi OST Vinyl came in the mail today!! The colors, the artwork, the mushroom-printed vinyl. It's beautiful. So glad we got to make these, and they're still available @veryokvinyl.com !!

Also, here's a scene from another game I've been working on 🏝️ #gamedev

fishing hitstop. i am truly revolutionizing fishing games right here

I've been experimenting with combat a lot in my new game. It's been a big challenge trying to see what direction I should take things. I think I've been overcomplicating it, but I also don't want it to be too simple. It's been a lot of prototyping and scrapping 😵‍💫

Stream schedule! Monday we're playing @somehumbleonion.bsky.social Smushi Come Home. We get to play as a little mushroom trying to find its way home! On Tuesday and Wednesday it's Expedition 33 @expedition33.bsky.social twitch.tv/kenniiekins Schedule by MioriCreative Avatar by @88studio.id

Plants react to the player now! 🍃 #gamedev #indiegame

Experimenting with abilities/spells to unlock, like this ground pound attack. Feelin' pretty juicy. #gamedev

Just a lil' fungi 🍄 The wholesome soundtrack to "Smushi Come Home" by @somehumbleonion.bsky.social‬, with adventurous tracks by @failpositive.bsky.social‬, is making its way onto beautiful vinyl from @VeryOKVinyl.com! Pre-order your copy and bring Smushi to your home: buff.ly/LJh2MJ3

Smushi Come Home turns 2 years today!! 🍄🎉 It's been a wild 2 years since launch. We've sold ~95k copies, released plushies, physicals, etc. I'm beyond grateful and can't thank you all enough <3 And for our OST fans... WE HAVE A VINYL COMING!! Preorders are available now! ⤵️

Designing levels just got a lot faster! I was originally greyboxing and creating environments with splines, but I switched over to terrains instead. Think it just matches my workflow more. #gamedev #indiegame

Planning to really lock in these next 2 weeks. My new project still needs a lot of work with the core elements (mostly combat and level design). Once that's done, I can really focus on content creation. Will do my best to post some cool updates!

Smushi Come Home is 50% off on Steam as part of the Cozy & Family Friendly Games Celebration! Link is below if you're looking for a chill game to play this weekend!

Finally got some enemy variety going! These lil ranged guys are the latest addition. #gamedev #indiegame

Been getting a lot of Smushi Steam Key request emails all of a sudden. It's so difficult to tell which are scams and which are genuine reviewers. Welp. Guess I won't be giving any out.

Sorry if updates are a bit slow right now. I'm still trying to nail down the 3 major components of gameplay: combat, npc interaction, and something to in between. Lots of prototyping and experimenting. But hopefully I'll have some cool updates to share soon! <3

Added a range attack! Behold. The Spear. #gamedev #indiegame

Make sure your RPG battle transitions, scene composition, and attack animations are at least as cool as this Taiwanese DOS RPG from 1995

To give the player a jump button or not... tough decision. Jumping is fun, but level design would need to be heavily revised🤔

Need more explosion particles...

Wishlist Evil Egg on Steam! store.steampowered.com/app/3651950/...

A bit janky and WIP, but added a climbing system! #gamedev

I'm kinda at that phase in development where there is SO much to do for the core gameplay and I don't know where to start 😅 Sorry if updates aren't as frequent right now. Just trying to get a lot of the backend work done first!

Thanks for all the positive feedback on my new game everyone! Glad yall are liking the look of it so far :D Sorry it took so long to share. These past few months have been kinda crazy. And tbh the game idea was very back and fourth for a while.. But feels like a good spot now!

early gameplay footage of a new game I'm making!

lil sneak peak of a mockup level for my new project 🍃

❄️ A new journey begins! ❄️ We’ve been keeping this one under wraps for *checks calendar* 5 YEARS! But it’s finally time to reveal IKUMA: The Frozen Compass Join Sam & his sled dog Ellie as they brave the Arctic’s cold... and uncover something far more sinister. ❤️ Wishlist: bit.ly/_IKUMA

Did you guys know that I make review videos over indie games and my latest one came out last Saturday? A rapid fire review over @littlekittybigcity.bsky.social, Smushi Come Home by @somehumbleonion.bsky.social, and @thewerecleaner.com! Three games where you play as a lil' guy. Check it out here!

Was really hoping to share some progress on this new game I've been working on, but things took a turn recently with some family health stuff (everything is okay thankfully ❤️) I'm mostly back on the grind now tho! So some sneak peeks are on the way 👀

Exploration games are such a treat to dive into. There's nothing better than just letting squirrel-brain take over and running in any direction you feel like. @sandwitchdev.bsky.social @adamgryu.bsky.social @somehumbleonion.bsky.social www.comfycozygaming.com/2025/03/31/3...

I still read the Steam reviews for Smushi every single morning. They really keep me going and I'm so grateful that new players are enjoying the game still! Thanks yall 🥹💙

ATTENTION INDIEDEVS Show off your art style! (Last one is a small sneak peek of something new)

Steam Spring Sale is here and Smushi is in it with a new bundle!! This bundle has some real gems in it that I think yall would love ❤️ Link in the comments!

trying to figure out how I'll incorporate a capybara into my next game. I can't make a game and NOT have capy in it.

"hey! that's my leaf!" 🍄🍁 @somehumbleonion.bsky.social #SmushiComeHome #fanart #envtuber #cute #wholesome #digitalart #mushroom #cozygame #smushi

Doing a complete re-design of the main character in my new project after already modeling and animating the old one so much 😭 it must be done...

What an epic ride! 100% finished the achievements in #SmushiComeHome. I absolutely loved the heck out of this game. Thank you @somehumbleonion.bsky.social & the team who worked on this for such a beautifully cozy game. Thanks Xytherea for the raid & all who hung out during the game 🍄
