Season's Greetings from the #Moonshell_Island crew! We'll be back with a #gamedev progress update around New Years! Holiday #illustration by our postcard and character artist, @ainrueda.bsky.social 💖 www.patreon.com/posts/happy-...

Okay, here's the last sketch of this sequence! It's my original character, Meredith Black, seen here with a long jacket and a long sword! This was done as a timed 34-minute sketch. What do you think? --- #art #sketch #sketchbook #timedsketches #comicart #characterart #sword

It's time for another timed sketch! It's Izumi Yamazaki, ninja thief from the year 200X! This is a 21-minute sketch, which is close to the longest I've spent on a sketch in a timed sketch challenge! #art #sketch #sketchbook #timedsketches #ninja #comicart #characterart

Look what I have for you today! It's another Azzura sketch! This was part of my timed sketchperiment, and it's a 13-minute sketch from a set that I shared on Patreon earlier! What is she wearing here? Some kind of poncho? I'm not sure! #art #sketch #timedsketches #pencildrawing #characterart

Hey, it's time to get back to sharing these sketches! Here's another eight-minute Azzura sketch! But this one is from a slightly different angle! Maybe Azzura needs somebody to look up to. (Now, what if I try some tags?) #art #sketch #sketchbook #timedsketches #pencildrawing #characterart

Paying members of my Patreon can see my latest devlog-style update, in which I talk about what I've done over the past month and look forward to this new month that apparently started! Everyone else can wait until Monday. www.patreon.com/posts/its-de...

Check this out! I did an eight-minute sketch of the main character of my comics! It's Azzura Silverstar! This was also part of Sketchperiment 3 from my Patreon. Isn't it neat?

when we say we want more streets to be pedestrianized, this is what we mean

Hey, look! It's a quick five-minute pencil sketch I made of a certain robot character from my world! (She has a gun!) This was part of Sketchperiment 3, which I posted about in a Patreon link I'm sure I've posted around here somewhere.

Look! I made some sketches! I like to sometimes do sketches on a strict timer. Here we have: - Meredith from my comic (1 min.) - A self-portrait (Hi!) (1 min.) - Azzura from my comic (2 min.) - Izumi Yamazaki's sister who has not been in my comic yet but one day might be! (3 min.)

Our new #Moonshell_Island postcards are ready to mail out to our lovely patrons (of qualifying tiers)! This adorable #illustration is by our character designer @ainrueda.bsky.social who's amazing! ✨ Check it out for free & maybe support our #indiegame #rpg at: www.patreon.com/posts/141910... 👉👈💜

Not me posting outdated #Moonshell_Island footage for #PortfolioDay! I'm too busy rebuilding my #pixelart #rpg to take on additional work rn, but any support would help me get 'er done! Wishlist: s.team/a/1629660 Patreon: patreon.com/cheekynauts #cozygames #gamedev #gamemaker #indiegame #indiedev

I've emerged from the depths of menu madness to find #ScreenshotSaturday already upon us? Aye, programming #Moonshell_Island tis cumbersome to bear. Good thing she's got an Inventory System~! 💪🎒 Captain's #gamedev log: www.patreon.com/posts/140953... #indiedev #pixelart #cozygames #gamemaker #rpg

When I'm having trouble drawing, I try a ~Sketchperiment~! I set a timer for one minute and keep going so each sketch takes as long as the previous two sketches put together! This means: 1 minute, 1 minute again, 2 minutes, 3 minutes, 5 minutes, 8 minutes, and 13 minutes! What do you think?

I posted again on my Patreon! If you want to, like, pay for a membership, you can see these little drawings that I did before they are available to the public! If you're into such a thing! www.patreon.com/posts/its-ne...

I'm going to try to remember this place exists and post more things! If you also remember Bluesky exists - hello! I'm glad you're reading this right now! I made a post on Patreon! I hope that you will consider reading that as well! www.patreon.com/posts/change...

Hear that, #ScreenshotSaturday? Tis the siren's song of #Moonshell_Island that keeps this #indiedev sailing on. Respite won't come until I reach the destiny that calls me. #gamemaker #pixelart 🔊🎵 Music by @queergermangirl.bsky.social 🧡 Captain's #gamedev log: www.patreon.com/posts/mir-mi...

Happy Pride from California Native Plants!

I made this Pride flag using only NASA images and our team thought it would be cool to share on social (I work on the NASA heliophysics communications team), but it's getting all sorts of hate on the bird app and Fbook. Thought y'all might be more appreciative of it here. ☺️🏳️‍🌈💖

Friends of #Moonshell_Island, I've got good news and bad news for ya. Good news: Our new postcard features gorgeous line art by our character designer @ainrueda.bsky.social, and I'm mailing it out this week! Bad news: yer gonna have to read this post to find out! www.patreon.com/posts/128786...

Hey everybody! Members of my Patreon (including the free followers) can see my latest update about updates. There are a few, like, rough sketches and things in it! www.patreon.com/posts/patreo...

Hello #PortfolioDay! My name is Dave, and I make comics and do illustrations and visual design and stuff! I made the in-game ASCII art for Cheese Runner: store.steampowered.com/app/1508980/... I'm working on Azure Claw Comics: azureclaw.com More of my work is here: ko-fi.com/davevincenty...

New art! Well okay, it's the same as the previous art I posted, but now with color! Azzura steps into a mysterious flooded room in a broken-down old forgotten facility from the alien war. What will she find there? (Drawn with pen and ink on paper, and then digitally colored with Krita.)

LA friends, very exciting news: The first feature I’ve scored will finally be screening in LA on April 19th. Where In The Hell is an indie road trip buddy comedy/mystery with queer and Asian leads. Link to tickets here: whereinthemovie.com Would love to see you there!

Where is Azzura going? I made a new art! Or, well, I updated the last art that I posted about! Paying members can see it at this link (and I hope you like it!): www.patreon.com/posts/art-dr...

Here's some new Azure Claw art for you! It's my character, Azzura, setting foot inside some mysterious ruins from the alien war! Clearly, the aliens were using this for something! But what could that be? Made with traditional ink and paper, plus some minimal digital edits.

It's March! And I made some new art! Paying members of my Patreon can see what it is! www.patreon.com/posts/its-ma... I hope you like it, paying members of my Patreon!

Hey friends of #Moonshell_Island! I'm taking a little detour from my demo roadmap to make ends meet, so more inactivity and delays are expected. As the lamest valentines day gift I can give, this post is free on Patreon! www.patreon.com/posts/122307...

Violets of Amicus, the game I've been working freelance on for the last 4 years, just launched its Kickstarter! Be sure to give it a look! www.kickstarter.com/projects/cre...

SOUND ON. As part of the score for Where In The Hell, I wrote the song End Of The World. Not only is it featured in the film, but also in this lovely trailer. Really glad about how it ended fitting.

It's February! That means it's time for another look back on the previous month over on my Patreon! (It's readable by members at any level, including free followers!) www.patreon.com/posts/its-fe...

Since my Patreon hasn't had much traction lately, I've started posting new #Moonshell_Island content like these #pixelart NPC sprites and other goodies to my ko-fi page! ✨ ko-fi.com/goawayimcrabby Help me reach my goal so I can add a printable Daily Achievement Log for all supporters! TY! ☕🦀💜

Once upon a time in 2019 I published this game. It has reached close to 5K downloads🥹💜❤️ It wasn't perfect but I hope my next game will you bring just as much joy and fun. Palins Fate will be released on itchio page if you want to follow✨️💜❤️ #gamedev sorceressgamelab.itch.io/adventures-o...

Mood of the decade. #pixelart #ITcrowd

Okay here is a bit of gameplay for you! There is still stuff I have to fix😬 it's mostly little things but will do when I get the chance:) for now imagine a small cut scene at the start lol Will make one more update on my itchio page later with all the fixes! #gamedev

I have a track on this awesome anti-fascist vaporwave compilation album!!! Check out World of Wonders, inspired by German science TV shows from the 80s and 90s. The whole album is free to download.

Please enjoy this new art! It's a sketchbook page I shared before, featuring this cool tough woman named Meredith Black, an original character from Azure Claw Comics! But now, I've colored it, which I think really brings out something!

One of my proudest achievements was being commissioned to do this #pixelart game mockup for the Aseprite trailer. The tilemap editor this work was used to highlight has been a gamechanger for my own #indiegame project. Thank you @aseprite.org! 😘

Happy #PortfolioDay! I'm Jake, a pixel art from Kansas City! I love creating landscapes and cityscapes with Pixel Art! I also have prints available at jake-lacombe-art.square.site! #pixelart #art #kansascity

You can also wishlist the game on steam! s.team/a/1629660 bsky.app/profile/goaw...

#PORTFOLIODAY2025 #portfolioday Portfolio day! I’m Ainhoa, a cartoon character designer from Spain~ I currently work as a freelance concept artist for an upcoming indie game.

Soon it will be demo time. No matter how many games I make it's always nerv wracking 😬😂 There is an update on my itchio page and my Kofi! 💜❤️ #gamedev

Towards the end of last year, I was dealing with some art block, and so I made a series of sketches to try to get myself comfortable expressing creativity in the form of simple pencil drawings. These three pictures are the result of that effort. Please enjoy this glimpse into my sketchbook!

Ahoy! I'm Crabby Sam, and I'm workin' on #Moonshell_Island! Grow a crab's clubhouse into a thriving community hub and uproot the island's monster veggie problem in this cozy action adventure comin' to PC and console... eventually! #PitchYaGame #gamedev #pixelart Wishlist the game: s.team/a/1629660
