i spent 3 weeks straight solving a puzzle i accidentally created for myself. It's a puzzle exclusive to this project, i can't reuse the solution and it won't benefit anyone else. it was extremely engaging and rewarding. and i get to do it all over again tomorrow i love game development :)

I made a single-image puzzle for the 2025 Confounding Calendar. it's large and difficult. good luck! :) torcado.itch.io/loopmaker

dont buy my games. click on a random itchio game and play that instead

I made a plugin for @figma.com that lets you make perspective warps of any shape. It's something I've wanted for years, so I finally sat down and made it. Maybe you'll find it useful too! :) 🔗 figma.com/community/plugin/1563978742419168011/perspect #figma

I released an update to Rat King that adds a some new features, enemy variants, a new secret item, local leaderboard, and a bunch of fixes and balancing tweaks :) torcado.itch.io/rat-king

This is a pretty cool broughlike. For those not familiar with the term, it's a subgenre within roguelikes inspired by the unique style of Michael Brough's games. A few years ago, there was even a broughlike jam on itchio. torcado.itch.io/rat-king

I made Scritch, a simple, fully customizable media player designed for music artists 🎵 Originally made in response to Epic's acquisition of Bandcamp, I realized @itch.io would be a perfect place for musicians to distribute their albums. The only thing missing was a media player... So I built one!

RE: the soundcloud news today If y'all haven't checked out @torcado.com's scritch as a possible option for posting your music, I recommend that you do!! It's cool! torcado.itch.io/scritch-editor

A new look for the game thanks to @torcado.com's awesome cleanEdge shader! I think this comes closer to the Wind Waker aesthetic I was emulating in pixels! Also, there should be some fun news regarding the game soon 👀 #indiegame #games #roguelike #gamedev

#windowkill #art windowkill took my heart

my 6 fav games of the year (three released this year/three not) starting with windowkill by @torcado.com torcado.itch.io/windowkill came out last year but the paid windowkill 3.0 release was this year. i got hooked. i think this is what the arcade devs of the 80s wished games would become one day

I made a puzzle for this year's Confounding Calendar! warning: it's tricky! :) torcado.itch.io/glowmaker

Hi friends :) It's not likely, but I think it's the best chance I'll ever get and I want to give it my best shot. Please vote here! store.steampowered.com/news/app/272... As an incentive, if Windowkill is nominated for the award, I will make a special update for the game :) ❤️❤️❤️

btw! all my purchasable games are 50% off for the Halloween sale on itch․io :) itch.io/s/135653/halloween-sale-2024

I've just pushed a small change to cleanEdge that better handles a specific edge case, and a change to the web tool to fix some minor stray pixels in some cases. here's some before and after comparisons :) bsky.app/profile/torc...

I made a pixel art upscaling/rotation algorithm called cleanEdge! It makes rotating pixel art as clean as possible torcado.com/cleanEdge I made a tool for it too! drop your sprites in and get some nice rotated or upscaled versions :)

I rate Windowkill as my 2nd favorite indie game so far of 2024. Seriously, just check out the Steam page and the videos about this game...it's so freaking awesome! #indiegame
