Adding a classic ability to the game. This one was technically tricky but it feels so good to have a proper "Canto" ability in the game now. #indiegames #hibera #irishgamedev

Added a menu option to switch to hyper readable fonts. We are now Accessible. #indiegames #hibera #irishgamedev

The humble Yeoman is the most common beginner class, boasting 4 different promotion paths! They can wield Swords, Poleaxes, Spears, and Bows. Their class ability is Buddy System which gives a defensive bonus if they end the turn next to another Yeoman. #IndieGames #Hibera #TurnBasedThursday

Wrote a font manager on my lunch break so we can have a font accessibility setting. I'm majorly irritated how good the game looks in Hyperlegible. I spend all this time on pixel perfect fonts and it just works out of the box. -_- #indiegames #hibera #irishgamedev

Singaporean artist Leia Ham reimagined LotR as Tale of the Middle Kingdom, since Chinese name for China (Zhōngguó) means "The Middle Kingdom." Her concept art includes the Fellowship, armors, buildings like Bag End, props like Aragorn's banner and Fellowship brooches, and more. #TolkienTrewsday

New dev blog is up! www.badjuicegames.com/blog/summer-... #indiegames #hibera #irishgamedev

I made this. Will it be in the game? No idea. #indiegames #irishgamedev #hibera

Omg this guy on the train will not stop waxing poetic about the story of Metal Gear Solid and how it's the greatest storytelling in gaming. This is a game featuring such memorable characters as Big Mama, Liquid, Vamp, Decoy Octopus and Big Boss

youtu.be/q-x5OzS5bAU?... @turnbasedlovers.bsky.social featured us again! I think I owe them a beer. #irishgamedev #hibera #indiegames

Woooo! We just hit 1000 wishlists! Huge milestone guys. It's amazing to spend so much time working on something and see it actually vibe with people. I appreciate you all. #indieGames #hibera #irishgamedev

I truly don't understand how we're not all talking about the Hibera, Requiem for the Forgotten Kickstarter more. Especially given everything that's been going on. #indiegames #hibera #irishgamedev www.kickstarter.com/projects/bad...

I'm working on upgrading all our portraits! I had been using the small sized portraits from the unit info panel everywhere which meant that they were looking a little low res in dialogue sequences. No longer! Just gotta do a ton of extra art now. #indiegames #hibera #irishgamedev #TurnBasedThursday

Marcello over at @turnbasedlovers.bsky.social really knows how to put a list together. I'm excited to play all of these games and happy to be counted among them! turnbasedlovers.com/lists/the-mo... #indiegames #hibera #irishgamedev

I tried the closed demo for Hibera, Requiem for the Forgotten by @milesthemighty.bsky.social! My thoughts will be in the response, but I got very into it and had a good time! I can’t wait for SRPG fans to get their hands on this demo! Enjoy the video!

@pauseandeffect.bsky.social was kind enough to take a spin through our demo and show it off also found some good bugs I need to go sort out :) youtu.be/_ejuHLZaHNU?...

Seems like it's #pitchyagame! Hibera is a Strategy RPG in the style of Fire Emblem. Fight for your friends and comrades as a continent tears itself apart around you. We're on Steam: store.steampowered.com/app/4492680/... And Kickstarter! www.kickstarter.com/projects/bad... #indiegames #hibera

I'm on that camera app now. www.instagram.com/badjuicegame... If you're into that kind of thing.

Very fun to look back at where we've come (and think about where we're still going!) #indiegames #irishgamedev #hibera #unity3d

Here's more shots with cool angles and details 😊

When people ask me what my artistic process is like: #indiegames #hibera #pixelart

New portrait art continues! Updating my current portraits to 96*96 for the dialogue ui. It's quite a bit of work but it's looking so good. #indiedev #indiegames #hibera #pixelart

Wrapped the early access story for Subnautica 2. So good! I only got eaten like two or three times!

It was delightful being Sam's both buddy for #GamerFest! What a lovely game. #indiedev #indiegames #irisjgamedev

Set up for GamerFest in Dublin this weekend. Chatting with a lot of lovely gamers and developers. Had an interview with Tg4. Didn't understand a word! #indiedev #irishgamedev #indiegames #hibera

Omg you'll never guess who I just ran into.

Fresh stack of stickers for GamerFest this weekend! #indiedev #indiegames #irishgamedev #hibera

Trying out some different pixel density for character portraits. This one is from @trueref.bsky.social #indiedev #indiegames #irishgamedev #hibera

Do y'all even realise it's been over a week since anyone mentioned we have a Kickstarter for Hibera, Requiem for the Forgotten? What are we doing about this? Should we add Kurosawa mode as a stretch goal? #indiedev #indiegames #irishgamedev #hibera

Tried out a CRT filter on the game. It's interesting but I'm not sure I'm sold. What do you think? #indiedev #irishgamedev #indiegames #hibera

Working through my feedback notes from AMAZE. Highlighting interactive objects on hover, and rendering health bars on top of the terrain. #indiedev #irishgamedev #indiegames #hibera

Adding just a bit of motion to my title screen. #indiedev #indiegames #hibera

Gameplay Teaser is now on Steam! Folks that were at @amazefest.bsky.social have seen some of this, showing some more at @untitledgamesevent.bsky.social and preparing a public playtest for June! #indiegames #indiedev #gamedev store.steampowered.com/app/3727200/...

@computerjames.bsky.social your O has earned a lofty position

Teddy keeps wanting me to read him the Silmarillion. Which I'm taking as a good sign.

Marking myself: Safe Home

A MAZE. Is now over (well it was over yesterday) what a delightful experience! So many great conversations with players and fellow developers. Now for a quick tour of Berlin. #indiedev #indiegames #hibera

Day 3 of A MAZE. I've lost my voice and everything hurts but I'm having a grand ol' time and everyone is so lovely. We had some epic runs today and also some tragedies. One player lost with Maebh one square away from the exit. Heartbreaking! #indiedev #indiegames #irishgamedev #hibera

Had the honor to share a table at @amazefest.bsky.social this year with the very talented and creative folks at 3 More Years. Blown away by the visual storytelling! #indiedev #indiegames #amaze

A MAZE day 2 was fantastic. So many people playing the game. Some epic runs! #indiedev #irishgamedev #hibera

First day of A MAZE went so well! So many great players learning about weapon triangles today. Somehow also found the time to write a dev blog: www.badjuicegames.com/blog/qyf339t... (I pre wrote it) #indiedev #irishgamedev #hibera

@turnbasedthursday.bsky.social you fellas want a demo key for Hibera, Requiem for the Forgotten? Very Turn, extremely Based. store.steampowered.com/app/4492680/...

Good ol' Ryanair to Berlin early in the morning

Intro time!! You can call me Rose or Impy! I’m a composer and sound designer for games based in Dublin, Ireland ✨ My music taste is very broad and I love writing anything from Orchestral Fantasy to Silly Guy Music! Below are just a few little snippets of my more recent works!!

Passed a pretty cool milestone today. Hibera officially has fan art! Our violinist Kam painted this version of Maebh looking like she could do the Kessel run in single digit parsecs. I didn't realize we had any sci-fi arc planned for her @evegoldenwoods.bsky.social?

Loving this mixtape maker www.makeyourownmixtape.com/t/lnA1heqNfc

Your friendly neighbourhood reminder that we have a Kickstarter coming up! The game's core is solid but we need some funding to build out our ambitious story. Still in preview mode but you can sign up to get notified when it goes live! #indiedev #irishgamedev #turnbasedthursday #unity3d

We've had some internal discussions about how to pronounce Hibera. I say "High🍺a" but that's probably my American accent. It could be "High🥶a" after Hibernia. And I also think "High🐻a" is a good shout too. What do you think?
