I always wanna add just little polishes and touches to my game's UI. I'm really happy where Celestial Waltz's UI is going.

Is this an April fools or real? 🥹 I wanna do something for 1K like an art share or something but we’ll see!

Happy Trans day of Visibility! I’m an NB game maker who concentrates on queer stories and art. I would love it if you could play my tiny trans little pixel game that was made with so much love. There are collectable letters you can read from real trans people. demeru.itch.io/last-years-l...

Starting to get the UI for Celestial Waltz ready to be inputing all the new stuff. Pretty happy so far. Look at that old sprite (it's the first iteration I'm on the fourth).

Among all the other AI atrocities brings this is why I refuse to use it. I don't want to keep up with big companies, I don't want to learn it to keep a job, there are no reasons that make it worth poisoning other people over. I'll keep making art without harming others as much as I can.

Btw if you’re hiring for a UI artist for your game, VN or other projects I’m your person. I’m up for paid work or if you have a game jam you’re working on I’ll help with that too!

if you want to support visual novel devs: - wishlist our games on Steam - leave reviews / ratings for them on store platforms - tell friends about our games - recommend them to streamers to play - share posts on social media - tell a developer you enjoy their work

Other than my own indie games I’m making I’ve given up on ever getting games work again. I’m actually trying to go back to school to fully change careers because I’ve been out of proper work since 2022. Somehow I’ve survived on savings since then. Can’t believe it’s been four years, feels bad man.

Gonna tap this sign 'til my fingers break.

Good question

Artists, quote with your faces!! Basically all I draw these days

Digital artists, share (one of] your first digital artworks and year vs. now My first ever Digital art (2005) vs What I do nowish (2025-2026) I never stick with one style.

Familiar Findings is participating in the Games From Ireland Showcase! We’ve got a few fun goodies being added to the game for the celebration too ✨🍀

Satan is an Astronaut is one of the many games on Steam that never got any reviews even after a year of being on the platform. It killed the game early on not to have even a single one.

review the games you play if you want more indie games. even a single review can help an indie studio. and if you go through someone's catalogue and review several....? it helps so much more than you can imagine for small games.

wrote a proper post because i had some more thoughts i wanted to elaborate on but didn't want to make this into a very long thread tnywndr.cafe/office/2026-...

We're taking part in the #WholesomeUnderdogs festival alongside some other amazing games. If you're into cozy, cute, wholesome games, this is the festival for you! store.steampowered.com/app/3914780/... #cozygame #idler #wholesomegame #indiegame

I want it. I want it. I want it. I’m waaaay too poor. If I get a high paying job MAYBE.

Am I just avoiding writing and coding by updating the sprites *for the third time*? Yes. Here's some of the NPCs you'll come across in Celestial Waltz, my otome VN inspired by my love of period dramas.

I will never be able to play the new Pokemon Games since they're so expensive and I already can't afford a Switch 2 but I love this guy so have a pixel version. I love the others too but I had to draw him first. #pixelart #ドット絵 #pokemon

I hate American Airlines (and my life right now tbh) TL;DR: I am out a few hundred bucks because of the airline's godawful cancelation policy and the last week has been god awful for reasons I will not get into. I just want to recoup what I lost if possible. ko-fi.com/husbandogodd...

This #screenshotsaturday we're going to be a bit sentimental with the launch of the game on Monday. How it started vs. how it looks now! The game has come such a long way in such a short amount of time and we can't wait for people to see it. #Idlegame #Indiegame #Fantasygame #Steam #cozygame

That time again

Everything for the game has really come together 🥹

This one was specifically designed for @jessewriting.bsky.social, my bestie who loves creepy horses.

lol this majestic creature was kind of a joke originally when I designed them but then I fell in love with it. I was giggling the whole time I was cleaning up the sprite.

Guess who's game is going to be launching in little over a week!! I hope you check out our cute idle desktop game. I want to hear which familiar is your favourite~ ✨

Hello everyone! I am looking for a writer that could help me bring an idea to life. This would be for an otome game, retweets are highly appreciated. forms.gle/wuqFBRhSyBmJ... #otome #visualnovel

Here’s a little teaser for all the familiars you can have in the full game for #familiarfindings! I’ve worked so hard on all these little guys and I can’t believe I got them all done. Can you guess what the silhouettes are? #pixelart #cozygame #creaturecollection

The energy I want to bring this year 👊💥 #art

One thing I really hate seeing on Steam is that studios who are using AI in the process of making games don’t put that in the disclaimer that is *mandatory*. If you used AI to make your game, doesn’t matter that it’s not ended up in the final product, I don’t want to play your game.
