I made this for @kvalentinwrites.bsky.social book An Amateur Witches guide to Murder- debuting next week! After reading it, I had to make this because it was so good, such a page turner, (and so cute)! Preorder here: a.co/d/bTBj5Gb

Here’s what Moons got in her inventory. Minidisc with good tunes (and game file data), player, headphones, transformation broach, royal crown, blue dog plush, shoes for land walkin’ & cuddles the cuddlefish. 🪼

Animating an effect for my game. But when does it appear? 🫧 #pixelart #pixelanimation #indiedev

Beams of Light by Walkman was the real one. On my Amiga computer as a kid this destroyed my mind - i couldn't believe music could be this good. youtu.be/dLyZkjvaqYQ?...

Lookit this little guy!!! (Picked him up to move him outta the middle of the path) seen during a morning run. (It’s an American bullfrog) 🐸

Wake up! 🪼

Weekend getaway with @kvalentinwrites.bsky.social and an old man doggy on Whidbey island. Definitely not enough time.

I wonder if I can get back to this project….

So I added a light to my character. And wondering should you see the light through the foreground elements so you can know where he heck you are (if you find a secret passage for instance)… Or does that make it feel like the foreground is transparent? #indiegame 🪼

Just checking out the new Procreate brushes. I used EVERY SINGLE ONE, and I guess ended up with a Beastboy drawing! #Procreate #BeastBoy

Now time to get these little bitty graphics into a game.

I’ve been feeling unwell

Some small previews of pixel art background stuff I’m doing at the moment for my jellyfish game. Currently lost in the details…🪼

6am

I programmed up a iPhone shortcut that will display 10 random photos from your library and ask you if you want to delete any of em! My photo library is around 20K photos so I need a way to schedule deleting some every day! Grab it if it sounds cool to u! www.icloud.com/shortcuts/3e...

I had a old hand-me-down Amiga computer for the longest time that came with a boatload of random games. One of them was Archipelagos. It's so weird and unnerving that for the longest time I think I thought it wasn't a real memory. But listening to the haunting repeating music really brings me back

#tinyocchallenge lol!! Tiny!!

Jelly friends in pixel form. A hidden room somewhere… 🪼

Ok I’m still playing the original so haven’t even thought about Silksong yet. But all the talk about it makes me want to play even more!

I totally missed #HollowKnight originally because it came out when I was completely lost in playing Destiny every waking moment. But now I am finally going through it and really loving every second of it. It’s a masterclass in level design!🗡️ 🐞

The boys

Abolish ICE. Abolish "A.i." No arms for genocide. Protect trans kids. Shut down the concentration camps. Abolish tariffs. Fire RFK, Jr. Boycott Avelo & Tesla. Delete Twitter. No crypto. Care over punishment. Vote Mamdani. Primary every do-nothing D. Protect vaccines and SSRIs. No fascism. #NoKings

War and Barrel💜

Played Dnd last night and that my character inside of the skeleton dice tower mouth!

Here's my Jellyfish character zooming around. I'm adding all the hooks and things for it to react to bad guys. Right now it only can sense when bad guys collide with the main body but I gotta have it also sense when they touch the tentacles too! 💚 #indiedev #indiegame

The little scream when it realized I was a person standing there kills me! 😢

Look at this tussock moth bby

Cuddles with a Cuddlefish! I got totally stuck trying to solve a complicated program w colliders & particles & geometry for weeks. So drew a picture because at least I can do that. (It doesn’t help me progress anything haha 🥲)!

Ate some choice berries today. :D

Had to take the car in for a bunch of work. Ugh tires are too expensive guys!!! At least that gave me time to explore. I did go down into this mystery staircase. It was cool. (Kingfisher Natural area)

Well crap, still can’t play Destiny. I managed a little more. But then there are more extended- going through tunnels as a matterspark - sections and that put me over the edge. Kinda sucks. I actually am liking the new weapons I was picking up.

My dog insists breakfast is at 530 am

Watch this (w sound on) if you grew up in 80’s and 90’s and want a core memory unlocked.

Salal berries, a wild berry up here that not many people pick and eat but it tastes mildly sweet and I think would make a great pie or jam. I know the tribes up in the PNW used them extensively.

It made so little sense that I’ve been hoping that actor would get to be in a superhero movie and get his redemption! So happy he knocked it outta the park!

Got controls working on this experiment I’m doing, but accidentally made my player get bigger over time as well. 😅

I keep getting stuck on the stupidest things when it comes to C# and Unity. It’s irritating so here’s a drawing of a character in my sketchbook:

I added a special edition of the Fraggle Rock book I illustrated to a tiny library with a toy keychain that was based on a character from the book! I wonder if anyone found it!

Doing experiments with game mechanics and style…. (Made in unity with elements from Procreate.)

Aaaaaaa

A small crop of this area I’ve been doodling away on for a while now. Should be ready to go into the game soon! #indiegame #pixelart

I still haven’t gotten through the first mission 🤢

👀✨

I’ve had a lifetime of painting backgrounds for video games and comics but never done pixel backgrounds… it’s very satisfying to get lost in the economy of it. (This is a distant view in a scene I’m working on now)

Random ogre drawing because I haven’t drawn one in a bit

Osprey X cell tower nest

Looks like this might be it for Destiny and me. 😭Just bought Edge of Fate and can't even complete the first mission before becoming SO VOMITOUS. Turns out that that turning into a ball of light mechanic makes me instantly motion sick. I think it's the camera?🤢This sucks.

At sunrise you could already feel like it was gonna be a hot one.
