MYM'S SWORD TRAILER... IS NOW!! 🗡️✨

i got accused of trying to "gatekeep creativity" (lol) because i said one of my many issues with generative AI is that people are skipping over the process of creating and PROCESS IS WHAT MAKES YOU AN ARTIST, not just the finished product.

I still want to make a mystery dungeon game someday... maybe after my platformer

🕹️Niche Fighter Monday🕹️ I'm back with more indie games from the April Fighting Game Jam! Vital Charge, Shadow Duel and Arcane Arena will all be playable down in The Basement today at 2pm ET! See y'all there! www.twitch.tv/mistermkl www.youtube.com/@MrMKL

but do you play shorter games with worse graphics made by people who are paid more to work less 🤨

I wonder if anyone is playing heatwave at combo breaker 👁️

I need to rework the stamina system in my platformer, it's more fun to just roll/attack/walljump freely without worrying about it....

Experimented with connecting multiple pico 8 carts together, I feel like I might be making things more complicated than I need to. I'll try and see if I can fit everything on just one, and maybe I'll use extra carts just to store ending cgs or something

BLUEBLOOD ARENA OUT IN STEAM EARLY ACCESS NOW! Blueblood Arena is a simple, 4 button fighter with no motion inputs and rollback netcode! With a small yet diverse roster of characters, you'll kick butt with any of em! YOU CAN GET THE GAME NOW!!! store.steampowered.com/app/3689030/...

INTRODUCING: PROJECT PHANTOM LIMB SCOUR THE NAMELESS ISLE AND ITS EVIL FORTRESS BATTLE WICKED SOULS AND SEVER THEIR BODIES RESIST DEMONIC POSSESSION (Releasing later this year)

hi all. Got hit with some unexpected bills for April that have hit my budget hard. Had to use up all my magicon savings and are still coming up short. I know it’s tax season so everyone is tight on funds, but if you could help spread the word I’d genuinely appreciate it 🥲 ko-fi.com/rathousepr/g...

If I ever add a 24th character to heatwave it will either be a guest character from a future game, or Robin but wearing their alternate outfit from the story mode

Hi, a new small patch for Heatwave is available (on both steam and itch) store.steampowered.com/news/app/298...

Btw, I have a website/blog on neocities :3 monochromesoft.neocities.org

Like how heatwave is actually just a visual novel, my next game is not a platformer, it's actually a dating sim lol

Happy trans day of visibility!!!! I am transgender ❤️

During this time of year, when there's a full moon, it shines through my window and wakes me up in the middle of the night

New game called K.C. Climber where you climb up a mountain! Hope you enjoy! sirmilkman.itch.io/kc-climber

I’m sharing this video again because people don’t really get what these data centers and ai are doing to our planet and our communities. Especially Black communities because they were strategically placed there. I need you to listen to these people. STOP USING AI. STOP SUPPORTING AI.

added some bugs to my game #gamedev

added some bugs to my game #gamedev

really strange feeling when animating enemies and realizing, oh.... they only need like 2 or 3 or 4 animations total, it's not like each one is a fighting game character that needs like 30 or more...

I really need to settle on designs for the two secondary main characters in my next game, its so hard to write them when I'm still deciding what they should look like....
