Deluxe Poly #wip - Fun with layer masks. #pixelart #gamedev

Pretty sure I haven't mentioned my free texture pack in about a month so I'm mentioning my free texture pack. It's free! There's textures! They're conveniently in a downloadable pack! For games, fine for other arts! shallowthinking.itch.io/brutalbasepack #retrogaming #indiedev #pixelart #brutalist

Deluxe Poly #wip - Added layer masks. Here I've applied the white circle layer as a mask to the red rectangle layer. This is all fully nondestructive - you can edit the mask to add more/less to it or move shapes around in the visible layer to get a different end result. #pixelart #lowpoly #indiedev

It's extremely funny to me that I'm editing photos for textures at the moment and having to remove spots of graffiti that I'd be fine with aesthetically. If I don't scrub them people will assume I've added a really lazy reference: One of the local taggers goes by "GMan."

The YM2151 is similar enough to the Megadrive's YM2612 that I was able to copy the patches and get a fairly accurate Desert Strike theme tune cover going. Not quite nailed the pitch bends but the automation editing in this thing sucks r.n.

Kenney is a real one. @itch.io needs to take this AI slop overrunning their store seriously. Its a disgrace to all the indie artists and indie devs putting their passion and effort into to what they make.

Trash Goblin is a lovely chilled shopkeeping game. And now it's coming to consoles! We were very chuffed when @spiltmilkstudios.bsky.social chose @ant-workshop.com to help them out, it's been great to work on. If you have a game you'd like on console - do drop me a DM, we are very friendly!

guys on boat

Thunder Helix is ON SALE ! #lowpoly #indiedev #solodev #flightsim #gamedev store.steampowered.com/app/1906230/...

Game where you steer a delivery bot based on an abstracted top-down representation of a GPS route, which will randomly shift by 1-4m every so often because you have a naff cheapo receiver. No awareness of small static/moving obstacles until you hit them. This is the Platonic ideal outcome of a run:

This week I released picoCAD 2! A retro inspired 3d modeler with built in texture and animation tools. Check out picoCAD.net and grab the launch discount! ☺️ #screenshotSaturday #lowpoly #gamedev

What's that? Grid Cartographer is on sale? half price? but I like wandering around in dungeon crawlers getting lost ! #dungeoncrawler #gamedev store.steampowered.com/app/684690/G...

Why did no-one tell me about the awesome and crazy world of external numpads !? 😮 Can you imagine making a game with one of these things as the dedicated controller !!

Sometimes I'll put myself a note on an empty layer because six months from now I absolutely will have forgotten this and be baffled by it not matching the output file. #krita #textureart #2dart #textures

if you actually use ai to make those dlss5 memes you are missing the whole point and you should explode immediately

Not every place in BECROWNED is trying to kill you. Some are almost… cozy.

Capcom games already looked realistic 🤷‍♂️

Deluxe Poly - runs under Linux if you add as a 'non Steam game' and enable Proton. A good stop-gap while I learn how to program Linux! 🥳 #linux #pixelart #illustrator www.patreon.com/posts/deluxe...

I actually feel terrible sharing this because it was on 666 reposts and I just ruined it.

every time you miss a crosswalk in a captcha, a waymo runs over a child

Isn't it crazy how you can just post links here without being penalised by a hostile algorithm? linktr.ee/ShallowThink...

Changes are becoming smaller and harder to notice. #WIP

Everyone's gotta check out Computer Worlds. Indie game curation is more important than ever in the current landscape, and it serves as a balm for the soreness associated with finding great games to check out. It's great for the scene for something like it to exist! www.youtube.com/watch?v=Og6_...

I got jumpscared by an order confirmation from Warhammer merch the other day, but it turned out it was a replacement for an Orks calendar I ordered. There were two months with incorrect dates. TBH I'm not mad, Orks canonically can't count past "lots."

Mileships outtake

We've just added 10 fonts to our All Fonts Pack, bringing the total number of files up to 1,246! These fonts are free for existing customers, and the pack is currently on sale at 90% off until the end of March for newbies!

Our water's been off for most of the day because of a suspected burst main somewhere nearby. Hiked up to the supermarket for a 5l jug in the hopes of goading out a service restoration. Sad to report this gambit has not worked, but at least I've had a cup of tea now.

Yeah, this is a great point, and I should have made it myself! Getting Dev Funding isnt the same as Getting Publishing Services. One might be suitable for you, or you might need the other, or both!

Boss still wants me to come in on Mario Day. Unbelievable.

Into the Slimy Mines is featured in @steampowered.com's Tower Defense Fest! @ant-workshop.com has even polished up the demo after your Next Fest feedback. 💪 store.steampowered.com/app/3639440/...

Even if nobody draws Deus Ex anymore I will be the one to do it. #JCDenton

Recorded a wee video of me playing Into the Slimy Mines, if you're in to that kind of thing www.youtube.com/watch?v=if0D...

This is the spot in the lego game where you get the strong character to punch the wall

Announcing: 🚨 "2 DECADES OF DOOMING" 🚨 Mapping Contest! The below video outlining the contest guidelines will premiere shortly! For discussions of the contest, please visit my Discord, "The Entryway": discord.gg/Ascc59b Looking forward to your maps! Get psyched!

Deluxe Poly - Added a wireframe preview mode for object movement. I find it's sometimes useful for relative movements. But if it's annoying you can go back to real-time movement. #lowpoly #gamedev #pixelart

On Sundays we muck about with DOOM levels. #doom #retroshooter #doom2hellonearth #custommap #lostsoul #idsoftware #leveldesign

You haven't truly lived until you've had a FOR loop reading 0-255 values from a DATA statement and POKEing it into the specific memory range that held the empty 8*8 glyphs in the Spectrum's character set. #zxspectrum #OhGodIAmOld

Have I yelled about Supplice yet? If you like OG Doom engine/Build-era stuff you owe it to yourself to give it a spin.

Portal's out! The base is free of course (including all the shaders, controller script and animations), but if you want to support me I made some presets too! Link: binbun3d.itch.io/godot-portal... #godot #godotengine #shader #vfx #gamedev #indiedev

If you're after sweet, sweet visuals, don't miss out on one of the best human artists around on a rare period of being available for work.

Terrain texturing comes full circle as I take my original messing around with lava and rock, use my improved skills from the other biomes, and finish up with a "volcano" texture set. #gamedev #pixelart #lowpoly #solodev

New updates for my interactive guide about tweens!!! Very excited about this one because it explains whats the deal with "if tween: tween.kill()"! There are now 15+ fun pages that covers almost everything you need to truly understand #Godot tweens, for free! qaqelol.itch.io/tweens #GameDev #Dev
