GDS was fun! Bit tiring but well worth it 🙂 Wish I took more pics of people haha

Craggenrock – Young Creatives Challenge (YC2) Season 1's 2nd Placer – will be attending GameDev Summit 2026 in Clark this February 3-5! Drop by Booth 6, and see you at GDS 2026!

When they said game releases are gonna be stressful, they really weren't kidding. Like, for real.

Here's an article about the recently-concluded PGDX 2025, featuring some games (including Craggenrock!) Thanks for the feature ❤️

Craggenrock's back for round 3 at Philippine Game Dev Expo 2025! We're here from today 'til the 27th at SMX Convention Center, Pasay, PH! Drop by if you're nearby! (I no longer have choco coins tho, sorry 😟) #PGDX2025

While I'm really glad that my game is finally out, it's kinda hard to celebrate coz of the heavy rain and potential flooding in my area. 😬 (Still, yayyyy~) Apologies for any late replies. Internet's a bit spotty rn.

Craggenrock is now finally here! 🔥 Join Arlo as he returns to his hometown, crafting and selling the best items to offer while earning that sweet, sweet profit! 🎮 Get it now on Steam: s.team/a/1889160/ Presskit: tiny.cc/CraggenrockPresskit #indiegames #indiedev

i'm so scared. This is nerve wracking 🤢

It's that time of the year again. ☹️ I really want and need to sleep, but I have to stay alert coz there's a chance it'll flood. Living in a floodprone area is a real pain.

Craggenrock's joining the Steam Sale for the Southeast Asian Games Showcase on June 6-June 20! 🎉 Check out the demo and other games crafted by wonderful devs from the region! Much love to the @seagshowcase.bsky.social team!

Darkest Dungeon II's narration reminds me a lot of Schitt Creek's Moira Rose. The vocabulary.

Went to the IGG PH Awards Night earlier. Congrats to the winners! 🏆 It was nice catching up with some game dev friends (and getting some fresh air).

It's so hot 😩 Drinking cold water and taking multiple showers just ain't cutting it anymoreeee

I'm a few weeks off my target, but I made quite a progress redoing Craggenrock's demo. Expanded story and dialogue, UI/UX improvements, re-balancing, etc. Onto testing next!

I don't usually ask for help debugging my code, but when I do, it's some stupid mistake like a misplaced ")" or referencing variables that doesn't exist. A bit embarrassing having someone point out something trivial like those 😅

Craggenrock's been nominated for a few awards in the Indie Games Group PH (IGG PH) Awards this coming March 15th. ❤️ More info: iggph-awards.carrd.co You can vote for Craggenrock and other games for the Most Anticipated Game and Community Choice awards here: forms.gle/zKKJNLQ7oBT5...

Paladins was my go-to game for years 😔 Sad to see how it's turned out...

I think this isn't my year. It's like sickness after sickness even before the last year ended.

Chasing deadlines is so exhausting.

New update! Been busy remaking the intro cutscene and updating the story. This definitely took some time, but it's... something ig. #indiedev #indiegamedev

Advertise your indie game with one Simpsons gif

Some #pixelart achievement icons I've worked on today. ~60% of the total, ~40% more to go. 🎨 #indiegamedev

Been really loving checking mini PCs out available in the market rn. It's amazing how they can cram all that performance in a really small form. But then again, people have been porting Doom to thermometers and calculators. What a time to be alive.

Still working on the story and laptop's still broken, so here's some WIP of Hannah's hair animation in Craggenrock. I made it bouncy 'coz why not? 😄

Happy New Year, friends old and new! May we finish our games this 2025, maybe even a few 🙂

LIVE NOW! www.youtube.com/watch?v=naJt...

My laptop just died. Called customer support and seems like motherboard needs to be replaced. I haven't backed up my files just yet. Oh no.

Prepared beef and mushroom pasta, orange chicken and some ham for Christmas Eve. 🍽️

Happy holidays, everyone! 🎁

It's getting difficult to concentrate on game dev with Christmas and New Year approaching. I haven't even done my holiday groceries yet 💀. Might take a short break and resume after Christmas.

Next year's Eurovision theme seems like a retro/modern blend. That font choice though. youtu.be/luUb_nVyPHE?...

I think I'm slowly coming to terms with how my game's release will turn out, which is less than what I hoped for. Still, I'm gonna do my best! I think it's still worth releasing something I can rightfully call something I put a lot of effort towards.

Craggenrock's taking part in Southeast Asia Games Onward 2024! Check (and wishlist) it along with other games made by Southeast Asian devs. Also, stay tuned for the showcase on Dec 29th. Thank you so much to @seagamethetic.bsky.social @virtualseasia.com @themagicrainmy.bsky.social 🔥

[HEAR YE, HEAR YE] SEAGO Steam Sale 2024 starts now! Join us in showcasing games from Southeast Asia game devs Support SEA Devs by wishlist and buy their game! Steam: store.steampowered.com/curator/2527... Itch.io: itch.io/c/5123910/so...

Cutscenes are... complicated. One would think they would mostly involve writing dialogue, but underneath there's still plenty of code to work on.

A first of many small UI polishes: smoother bar progression and some text scaling animation. I'm trying to unify/improve UI movements with simple fades, etc. instead of sudden value changes.

Currently doing a pass on Craggenrock's story to improve the intro and add the other bits. It's starting to feel more alive! 🤓

I kid you not, @itch.io has been taken down by Funko of "Funko Pop" because they use some trash "AI Powered" Brand Protection Software called Brand Shield that created some bogus Phishing report to our registrar, iwantmyname, who ignored our response and just disabled the domain

Seeing Moonlighter in 3D is such a weird feeling. I loved their pixel art in the first game. youtu.be/uZW8MwekNHk?...

It's looking really lively here with all of the Christmas lights. Also, my phone's finally got a decent cam 😁

Might be some time before I can share game update pics or vids. Getting overwhelmed with prep for the holidays and some personal stuff.

Filipino devs and creatives, try your luck with Young Creatives Challenge! Deadline is on the 6th of December. www.youngcreativeschallenge.com/home (Just reposting it here. Not affiliated with them, but I did join the 1st season)

Exhausting day but was fun meeting other fellow devs!

Added in wall racks to store smaller tools, and a hearth and a cauldron for cooking. No stoves here, as they weren’t invented until the 1400s. I love the research part of my game dev cycle! #pixelart #indiedev #gamedev #solodev #medieval

Has anyone got Affinity Photo/Designer/Publisher? I've been thinking of getting it since it's 50% off now. I don't currently need it but it seems like a good investment. I mainly use paint. net, Inkscape and maybe GIMP, but I find them lacking/overwhelming at times.

My brain operates so much better in Taglish compared to pure English/Filipino when doing complicated things. I really wish I could speak like that during meetings with foreign folk, but I doubt they'll understand me.

They look so simple yet charming, especially when the full set was assembled 🎄 youtube.com/shorts/ydC42...
