Infested ruins at the depths of Eyra-31B #indiedev #gamedev #pixelart #metroidvania

For my next big announcement: I'm working on my own game! Me and Shoffur have been working on Nested Dreams since 2022 but it had to be delayed when I started working on my documentary. But I'm really glad we waited because I've learned a lot about Godot and we have a great story worth telling.

Working on sound design #gamedev #indiedev

I think it's time to make an announcement. I'm currently writing music for Acrolyte, a game that I'm really excited to be a part of. You can wishlist it here on Steam: store.steampowered.com/app/3459050/...

Acrolyte will be the first video game ever to feature fish #indiedev #gamedev #metroidvania #fish

Finally got my PC up and running again, more content coming soon 🙏 #indiedev #gamedev #metroidvania

Computer is currently down so I’m working on designing the alien languages for my game #indiedev #gamedev

Entrance to the caverns #pixelart #metroidvania #gamedev #indiedev

We made a utility that lets us take full scale screenshots of rooms. Absolutely zero real purpose for this but it sure is cool to look at #indiedev #gamedev #pixelart

Normal maps are so awesome #indiedev #gamedev #pixelart

Rooms are coming together super nicely with the new tiles. Thanks everyone who stopped by the streams! We'll be doing more in the future as we progress into more areas. #indiedev #gamedev #pixelart #metroidvania

We set up tools that let blend between color palettes and tints for individual tiles in our rooms. It might seem trivial, but in practice it’s extremely powerful for making seamless transitions and adding shading, depth and variety to rooms #indiedev #gamedev #pixelart

Acrolyte is a new metroid-like 2D action exploration game. Wishlist here: store.steampowered.com/app/3459050 Early demo: mccad00.itch.io/acrolyte #indiegame #steam #indiegames

Going live once again at 6pm est to wrap up work on this tileset youtube.com/live/ITRMO0K... #indiedev #pixelart #gamedev

Getting close to done with this tileset, can't wait until I start making rooms and then immediately need more tiles #indiedev #gamedev #pixelart

Going live again at 4:30 pm est with some more tileset art. This time I won't be late 🙏🙏 www.youtube.com/live/h-ODsjp... #indiedev #pixelart #gamedev

The pixel farm yielded a bountiful harvest today 👨‍🌾👨‍🌾 More pixel art streams coming soon #indiedev #gamedev #pixelart

Going live in 15 minutes with a tileset painting stream. Hoping to get a lot of work done on this set today. www.youtube.com/live/AyYJhJ7... #indiedev #gamedev #pixelart

One of the next major steps in development is going to be expanding some of my tilesets. Would anybody be interested if I livestream my art sessions? #indiedev #pixelart #metroidvania #gamedev

We’ve released a new update to our itch demo as an entry to a game jam. Lots of small improvements across the board, give it a shot! mccad00.itch.io/acrolyte/dev... #indiedev #metroidvania #gamedev

Movement tech can be chained together to travel at very high speeds and access certain areas and upgrades earlier than otherwise intended #indiedev #metroidvania

As you explore Eyra-31B, your logbook will catalogue detailed information about the areas, objects and creatures you discover #indiedev #metroidvania

Fuck it, just throw the gun #indiedev #metroidvania

By rendering the player from a 3D model in real time, we can use dynamic lighting, apply permutations to the character, and get considerably more complex animations than would otherwise be possible #indiedev #gamedev #pixelart

Our settings menu has a little GPU that gets hot when you turn your graphics up

Movement tech can be used to find incredible things
