Just got back home from a week long business trip and the first thing I pulled out of the pile of mail. #gbstudio #gamedevelopment #retrogaming #retrogames #gameboy #nintendo #itchio #thecultofblood #cultofblood #castlevania #indiegames #indiedev #homebrew #kickstarter #gamedev @gbstudiocentral.com

Almost done with level 7. Next, I will wrap up with the character / enemy sprites, collision detection cleanup, etc. #gbstudio #gamedevelopment #retrogaming #retrogames #gameboy #nintendo #itchio #thecultofblood #cultofblood #castlevania #indiegames #indiedev #homebrew #gamedev #indiegamedev

I received a wonderful comment about the backgrounds but I want you to see what I see. I get creative in Gimp and can only use 4 shades of green. I can assign 4 colors per 8x8 pixel block. #gbstudio #gamedevelopment #retrogaming #retrogames #gameboy #nintendo #cultofblood #castlevania #indiegames

Working on Level 7 and using tile swaps to experiment with lighting. You can still support our #Kickstarter project: www.kickstarter.com/projects/pko... #gbstudio #gamedevelopment #retrogaming #retrogames #gameboy #nintendo #itchio #cultofblood #castlevania #indiegames #indiedev #homebrew

So, I just found out that I will have to modify my use of the Konami code in the Cult of Blood as it infringes on Konami’s trademark. C’est la vie. bsky.app/profile/danc...

A journey through a treacherous mountain pass... #gbstudio #gamedevelopment #retrogaming #retrogames #gameboy #nintendo #itchio #thecultofblood #cultofblood #castlevania #indiegames #indiedev #homebrew

So, last night I implemented the classic "Konami Code". I wonder what players will get when using it? 🤔 #gbstudio #gamedevelopment #retrogaming #retrogames #gameboy #nintendo #itchio #thecultofblood #cultofblood #castlevania #indiegames #indiedev #homebrew

Inspired by @elviestm.bsky.social's post on reddit in the r/gbstudio. I figured that I should add a warning to my game and took the tiles from my chapel scene. #gbstudio #gamedevelopment #retrogaming #retrogames #gameboy #nintendo #itchio #cultofblood #castlevania #indiegames #indiedev #homebrew

I know I am a day late but as promised, the video of the incomplete abandoned village work...strigoi everywhere!!! #gbstudio #gamedevelopment #retrogaming #retrogames #gameboy #nintendo #itchio #thecultofblood #cultofblood #castlevania #indiegames #indiedev #homebrew

More work needs to be done but I am trying to get the "your on a ship" feeling locked down. #gbstudio #gamedevelopment #retrogaming #retrogames #gameboy #nintendo #itchio #thecultofblood #cultofblood #castlevania #indiegames #indiedev

Still a WIP... This is inspired by the Haunted Ship of Fools level in Castlevania 3: Dracula's Curse. I needed to get my own version in this game. #gbstudio #gamedevelopment #retrogaming #retrogames #gameboy #nintendo #itchio #thecultofblood #cultofblood #castlevania #indiegames #indiedev

WIP. Stage 2 is really shaping up and looking good, so far. I wonder where we are headed off to next... #gbstudio #gamedevelopment #retrogaming #retrogames #gameboy #nintendo #itchio #thecultofblood #cultofblood #castlevania #indiegames #indiedev
