Here's some really old concept sprites. This was before we decided to make the game about janitors instead of office workers. Sadly I didn't end up using the toad guy. #indiegamedev #indiegame #gamedev #gamedesign #ThirdShiftBelow #platformer #pixelart #Construct3

Down with the flu. Here's a #pixelart from yesterday. #digitalart #abstract #landscape

Autumn. #pixelart #fall #nature #digitalart #autumn

Happy Halloween, Bluesky! #indiegamedev #indiegame #gamedev #platformer #pixelart #retro #Construct3 #autumn #gamedesign #ThirdShiftBelow

Don't want to spoil too much, but I thought it would be fun to have some visual novelesque sequences in the game. #ThirdShiftBelow #retro #platformer #Construct3 #crt #indiegamedev #indiegame #gamedev #visualnovel #2d

Just some NPCs chillin'. #ThirdShiftBelow #indiegamedev #platformer #retro #gamedev #gamedesign #pixelart #Construct3 #indiana #indiegame #2D

I revisited our Steam Overlay workaround, and it looks like Valve changed something about the overlay, and now it renders correctly over transparency?! I think this means unless something else comes up, we should be able to have the in-game overlay supported again...

Set up a system that allows Frank and Phoebe to enter doors on their own. This will make it much easier for them to navigate layouts. #indiegamedev #indiegame #ThirdShiftBelow #Construct3 #platformer #gamedev #pixelart #platformer #gamedesign

Finally reached my 700th saved project file. #ThirdShiftBelow #indiegamedev #gamedev #Construct3 #project

Looking forward to composing some music for this sequence. #indiegamedev #gamedev #gamedesign #platformer #2D #ThirdShiftBelow #retro #pixelart #indiegame #Construct3

Here's a peek at a flashback area I've been working on. #indiegamedev #indiegame #gamedev #gamedesign #ThirdShiftBelow #platformer #retro #pixelart #Construct3

My fascination with space exploration made its way into the game... #indiegame #gamedev #platformer #retro #ThirdShiftBelow #pixelart #gamedesign #Construct3 #indiegamedev #gaming

Fake pasture. #indiegamedev #indiegame #retro #pixelart #platformer #indigame #ThirdShiftBelow #Construct3 #gamedev

Created a second "save" system. It stores everything temporary, allowing me to leave the current layout and return back to it without resetting everything. #indiegamedev #screenshotsaturday #gamedev #pixelart #ThirdShiftBelow #platformer #indiegame #Construct3 #retro

I'm pretty sure this is the biggest asset I've ever worked on. Not looking forward to animating it... #indiegamedev #gamedev #pixelart #timelapse #indiegame #ThirdShiftBelow #platformer #digitalart #gamedesign #Krita

Updated Phoebe and Frank's sprites. It might not be much, but I had to go through 100+ animations to add these changes. #indiegamedev #indiegame #retro #gamedesign #gamedev #ThirdShiftBelow #platformer #pixelart #Construct3 #indiegame

Cave view. #pixelart #nature #pixel #art #digitalart #krita #cave #island

"Limited time offer!" Created in Krita, took about half an hour. #pixelart #pixel #art #digitalart #snakeoil #kritaart #krita

We've compiled a few of our favourite Construct made games into our new 2025 showreel. Enjoy the video! www.youtube.com/watch?v=4CA0...

Will be going out of town for a few weeks, so I'll be taking a break from posting and working on #ThirdShiftBelow Anyways... here's a sequence I've been working on. #indiegamedev #indiegame #gamedev #retro #pixelart #platformer #gamedesign #gaming

Didn't like the way the flashback sequenced looked after I finished it so... #indiegamedev #gamedev #retro #gamedesign #indiegame #ThirdShiftBelow #pixelart #Construct3 #platformer

Am I too late for this? #indiegamedev #gamedev #retro #platformer #ThirdShiftBelow #Construct3 #indiegames #gamedesign #pixelart #monochrome #indiegame

Just some minor dithering and shading. #indiegamedev #gamdev #platformer #retro #pixelart #ThirdShiftBelow #Construct3 #timelapse #indiegame #gamedesign #screenshotsaturday

Just finished setting up my first dialogue tree system! Will start implementing into dialogue events today. #ThirdShiftBelow #retro #pixelart #indiegamedev #gamedev #indiegame #platformer #gamedesign #Construct3 #indiedev

Memory sequences will be in three colors except for the characters. This saves me a ton of time doing artwork. #indiegamedev #gamedev #indiegame #ThirdShiftBelow #retro #monochrome #Construct3 #pixelart #gamedesign #platformer

Heheheh. #FindingColor #Wplace #pixelart #pixel #art #gamedev #character

Frank's office. #screenshotsaturday #retro #indiegame #ThirdShiftBelow #platformer #construct3 #pixelart #gamedesign #gamedev #indiegamedev

I couldn't resist framing the lights in this sequence. #indiegamedev #indiegame #retro #platformer #ThirdShiftBelow #construct3 #gamedev #pixelart #gamedesign #lighting

Pretty happy with how these foreground layers came out. #indiegamedev #indiegame #gamedev #gamedesign #ThirdShiftBelow #retro #pixelart #platformer #corn #construct3 #indiedev

Created a new type of room transition. #indiegame #indiegamedev #gamedev #retro #pixelart #ThirdShiftBelow #construct3 #platformer #indiedev #2D #gamedesign

Pollution. #pixelart #artpost #digitalart #pollution #art

When I started #gamedev I learned pixel art to make my own assets. I haven't really done any pixel artwork outside of my games. Had fun doing these. #pixelart #artpost #digitalart #art

I'm going out of town for about a week. I've been feeling creatively drained lately, so I'm looking forward to taking a break from TSB and posting. Anyways, here's some water caustics I've been working on. #gamedev #indiegamedev #retro #pixelart #gamedesign #construct3 #ThirdShiftBelow #platformer

Found a way for Ben to fall into the water without much animation work... #indiegamedev #indiegame #gamedev #screenshotsaturday #retro #ThirdShiftBelow #pixelart #animation #construct3 #2D #platformer

Drawing some trash. #indiegamedev #gamedev #retro #pixelart #timelapse #trash #indiegame #art #ThirdShiftBelow #construct3 #platformer #gamedesign

Now I just need an animation for falling in the water... #indiegamedev #gamedev #gamedesign #retro #pixelart #platformer #ThirdShiftBelow #indiegame #construct3 #2D

Finding Color goes on sale tomorrow! ...For no reason other then it's Summer!! #indiegame #indiegaming #gamedev #retro #platformer #pixelart #indiegamedev #FindingColor #indiegames #sale itch.io/s/157150/fin...

Yes, my pixel art (and coding) was this bad two years ago. #indiegamedev #gamedev #platformer #primitive #animation #indiegame #gamedesign

Will begin work on whatever is behind this door tomorrow. #indiegamedev #gamedev #retro #platformer #pixelart #indiegame #ThirdShiftBelow #construct3 #indiedev #16bit

Even though he's in a platformer, Ben is not a fan of heights. #indiegamedev #indiegame #retro #gamedev #pixelart #ThirdShiftBelow #screenshotsaturday #construct3 #indiegaming #2D #gamedesign

Been busy working on TSB's story, so I haven't had the time to post much. Anyways, I've added a death sequence for when Ben falls too high. #indiegamedev #gamedev #ThirdShiftBelow #gamedesign #retro #construct3 #pixelart #platformer #indiegame #2D #indiegaming

Finally animated Phoebe's run animation. #indiegamedev #indiegame #gamedev #retro #pixelart #16bit #construct3 #platformer #animation #indiegaming #ThirdShiftBelow

This is an important room in the game, so I decided to make it more claustrophobic. #indiegamedev #indiegame #retro #pixelart #platformer #gamdesign #construct3 #gamedev #ThirdShiftBelow #2D #indiegaming

I was curious to see how much time I spend working on stuff in my dev room, so last week I made a stopwatch that continues to run every time I'm in there. #indiegamedev #indiegame #gamedev #platformer #retro #pixelart #time #construct3 #platformer #ThirdShiftBelow

It's kinda hard to make zoomorphic characters wear headphones. #indiegamedev #indiegame #gamedev #retro #platformer #ThirdShiftBelow #screenshotsaturday #construct3 #pixelart #2D #16bit
