Seeing the Bill Watterson originals full of pencil lines of stuff that didn’t work, scuffs the eraser didn’t pick up, white out galore and more was something I needed to see to remind myself that nothing is perfect the first go and tweaks need to be made and you’re allowed to try again.

Still experimenting for building a little town or towns, i'm liking that uk cottage vibe but we'll see! Going to back to working on the game now 😚 #pixelart #gamedev

hehe i think i may have just thought of a way to reference omamori in my next big game 😏 well not omamori directly but one of the games wawa talks about! it'll be a fun *gasp! point* for folks who've played both. i love creating media that only exists by characters talking about it

musestruck.com is now live!! #musestruck #indiegames #indiedev #gamedev

guess what?!! the world of #Floramino is blooming, and our garden puzzle game has expansions are ahead with new maps, a campaign mode, and configurable endless play! 🪻 wishlist it now on Steam! #gamedev #indiegames #pixelart #cozygames store.steampowered.com/app/3999350/

going to make a -A game, one that actually somehow lowers the quality of other games

UM???? This is LITERALLY a game changer??? I can't believe I'm only just hearing about this!

easy isometric pixel art is still coming... with a ton of new features! create anything with easymetric soon on @aseprite.org

"How's the #gamedev going, Jace?" you ask. "How's switching genres from visual novel to top-down horror going? Pretty smooth? All transferable skills probably, right?" well...

so itchio has shadowbanned any games tagged with 'nsfw', 'adult', or 'erotic' so they don't show up in searches, and several devs have reported that their r18 games have been removed from the site with no warning

My game can be hard to capture in a quick post because it takes seeing a full match to really grasp how the mechanics align. So, if you can spare 60 seconds, I'd really appreciate your attention and feedback on my turn-based RPG about puzzlingly-shaped bugs! : ) #indiegame #gamedev #pixelart

Excited to share my first top-down 16x16 asset pack, ‘Pixelated Days’ ! This 2-bit pack is meant to give cosy nostalgia vibes 💜 The first theme, ‘Pixelated Bookshop’ is free! Please check it out on itch.io and give it feedback: bicinnopixelassets.itch.io/pixelated-days #art #pixelart #gamedev

Things are cooking.. I don't want to officially announce anything just yet but I AM working on the next projects. Yup, plural. One is a short interactive fiction that will be available on itch and the other is a the next Big Game which will hopefully have a steam release!

The #Omamori postmortem is up!! We talk a bit about how it started, how it went, & what's next! I'm really curious to know if there's anything in the 'what's next' that folks are especially interested in seeing 👀 Read the devlog here! quiet-cabin.itch.io/omamori-a-mp... #mp100 | #gamedev

If I have 17 potions, I have 7 to use freely If I have 10 potions, I have 5 (must be used within a single level/encounter) If I have 5 potions, I have 2 (for mini-boss encounters or higher) If I have 3 potions, I have 0 (the 3 are for emotional support and financial stability) Simple math, really

More amazing concepts by @sunniemunch.com !! I really love these designs and I can't wait to apply them to pixel art! 🌝 🌸 #Azurebloom 🌸 #indiegame | #gamedev | #conceptart | #art

one neat thing about being a solo dev is that i can use literally whatever shorthand i want in my drafts because the only person it has to make sense to is Future Me. so instead of getting hung up in formatting in this early stage, i can mark special choices with like !- before the text or something

Me as a small child: OMG it looks REAL The “it” in question:

Working on the postmortem for #Omamori and it's absolutely WILD looking back at the original mock ups for the gameplay or menus. Wild and also more inspiring than I thought it'd be if I'm honest! #gamedev | #indiedev

playing A Date With Death for the first time and i'm TRYING to focus on the conversation with the literal grim reaper but the ads in my side bar are destroying me lmao I MEAN... sir WHAT??? outstanding 10/10 no notes

One of my mockups from "Don't Go Out", a survival horror game included in the Dread X Collection. This one was fun! Wish we had turned it into a full game. #pixelart #gamedev

WE FINALLY OFFICIALLY ANNOUNCED! The trailer is out!!

📢 ISO OF ACE CREATIVES 📢 I’m making a starter pack for Asexuals in art, games, music, writing &/or voice acting!🖤🩶🤍💜 🗣️If you’re a creative on the asexual spectrum, reply with what you do 🔁 RTs Appreciated! 🔁 #AsexualityDay #GameDev #IndieDev #VisualNovel #TTRPG #Music #Artist #Author #VoiceActor

When I feel like giving up I get so inspired by all the artist I follow, just know that even if you have days were you don't believe in yourself I am rooting for all of you In this era where intention is being pushed out from art, everyone of you artists, are doing something so special 👍✨

Refactored Relien's victory screen art #gamedev #pixelart #indiegame #godotengine

spooky prototype from a while back #pixelart #gamedev

this is so fun!! I actually didn't really have a specific design in mind so it's really interesting to hear how everyone else has pictured the spirit! If you played #Omamori and imagined the spirit a specific way we'd LOVE to see it!! #mp100

#Omamori is such a beautiful game, I loved it so so much!!! @quiet-cabin.bsky.social and @crownorclover.bsky.social put so much work into it, from the lovely visuals to the really cute story, everything is filled with so much love 💗 #mp100 #mobpsycho100 #serirei

I can not explain how much it means to me that people will be able to play a game about The South that captures its beauty and its magic. The region is at best overlooked and at worst stigmatized by it's worst tropes. I wrote about ALL the real folklore that inspired the game's bosses and more 👇🏾

Amen Tabal

I reviewed South of Midnight and I'm floored by it. It has some of the most beautiful level design and art around; the narrative is hauntingly strong and honors Southern Gothic literature perfectly. While the gameloop is repetitive, I never wanted to put it down. My review:

#Omamori has officially been out for 3 days and we've surpassed 150 downloads! I just wanted to take a moment to thank everyone again for their support and enthusiasm. It's been amazing and, quite honestly, super validating to read all of the tags and comments. 💜 #mp100

I took a break from non-profit work and spent the whole afternoon playing this. It was so cute I literally cried. Twice. I needed it. But yeah 5 stars, definitely recommend!

Just finished playing it, woaaaa so good….. ｡ﾟ(ﾟ´ω`ﾟ)ﾟ｡ 💕💕💕 !!!!!

OMAMORI IS LIVE!! IT'S HERE EVERYONE!! IT'S HEEERE!!! 🎉🎉🎉🎉 quiet-cabin.itch.io/omamori-a-mp... 🌸 #Omamori | #MP100 | #serirei 🌸

technically it's a little less than 24 hours 👀 #Omamori #mp100 #gamedev www.youtube.com/watch?v=b_Tv...

It's #ScreenshotSaturday again already!? This week I'm upgrading the #EmberHearts party status UI with some of the layout ideas I worked on for Scattered Embers (my loosely-related mecha-otome side project)

There are 8 achievements that can be unlocked in #Omamori! Some are fairly generous and unlock simply as you play the game, but others require a little more work! 👀 The full game releases in TWO DAYS! #screenshotsaturday #gamedev

Trying to find the right style for a character can take some iterations. Example of my process. I try to not be to constrained by a single style, but I do like outlines! Concepts for a canceled game from many years back. Which one is your favorite? #pixelart #gamedev

I'm so SO excited to launch Omamori in less than a week. I can't wait to share it with everyone, to mark it as complete, my first FULL game! But also.. once it's done and out there... I'M GOING TO GO SO HARD ON THE MISTRIA UPDATE OMFG I'M SO READY i miss March so much 😭 I MISS MY FARM!!

butch march for anon! 🔨 #art ✧ #fieldsofmistria
