DevLog 020- Enemy dynamism ⚔️ Enemies/Bosses aren't just going to stand around to take a beating. They’ll dodge your attacks, jump behind you or away, and close the distance. How’s your reaction time looking? 👀 #indiedev #indiegames #combat #gaming #pixelart

Two is company or a Trap? Can you handle a double ambush? 🌫️ Do you think two enemies are fair? #indiedev #indiegames #pixelart #combat #gaming

DevLog 019 - Worked hard on levels beyond typical side scrollers with organic terrain & multi-layered backgrounds inspired by Hollow Knight. Parallax effects create depth & atmosphere, makes exploration feel alive. Ready to dive into living world? #indiedev #indiegames #pixelart #metroidvania

Will you find your way out of the caves? 🤔 Left? Right? Up? Down? Ready to explore? #indiedev #indiegames #pixelart

DevLog 018 - This is from an old build. One of the first things I wanted my #creatures to do was chase you around, cut you off, and make it a bit challenging sometimes to run past all the enemies. What vibe does this creature give you? #indiedev #indiegames #pixelart

Why are you running away?! I am just trying to be your friend! #indiedev #indiegames #pixelart #creature

DevLog 017 - When I started making my game, I knew very little about coding; but I knew how to draw, so I started drawing all the animations. But now, by the power of coding, I am going all in with procedural animations. What do you think? did I make a mistake? #indiedev #indiegames #pixelart

DevLog 016 - I've redone the #creature code a few times because I keep learning new things that make me rethink the basics I did. It took several tries, but now I'm very happy with how it's working. 👉 Share & Follow along for more BTS insights! #indiedev #indiegames #pixelart

🔍Which is the odd one? 🤔 This is from an old build of my procedural animations creatures. #indiedev #indiegames #pixelart #Creature

DevLog 015 - Necks have animations now. The code lets me change the length of necks and limbs, and the animations still work. Physics behaviour made things a little more complicated, but it's working! Like, Share & Join us to help shape the game :) #indiedev #indiegames #pixelart #Creature

Still looking for a way to explain to my family what I actually do for a living. #indiedev #indiegames #pixelart

Send this to a friend who is a chicken, or are you a chicken? 🐓 My grandma used to be scared of them, but why? They are just mini-dinosaurs 🦖 This is a work in progress #creaturedesign for my game, giving them more neck animations at the moment. #indiedev #indiegames #pixelart

DevLog 014 - A great thing about procedural animations is that sometimes you have to set a couple of parameters, and it will be enough to make it look and feel good. But also, it takes very little to make it look ridiculous. what do you think? #indiedev #indiegames #CreatureDesign #pixelart

Dance! Dance! Dance! Dance your problems away! Dance! Dance! Dance! Dance till your head goes away! or maybe don't, no pressure. #indiedev #indiegames #CreatureDesign #pixelart

Sometimes to dance, you only need to move your neck... and sometimes you need to get injured while doing it, otherwise... you aren't dancing sweetheart. #indiedev #indiegame #CreatureDesign #pixelart

Incorporating proper neck and tail movement into our #creatures makes a big difference to the feel of their combat animations. But what else can they do with their necks and tails? You will have to stay tuned to find out 🤐 #IndieDev #indiegames #Gamer #pixelart

Two distinct personalities just by tweaking size, neck angle, and gaze of these two creatures. 🦕🦖 Same base code, yet quite different outcomes. #screenshotsaturday #pixelart #gamedev #indiegames

I think Pokémon creatures should have more explicit evolution animations, idk metamorphosis can be messy and disturbing in some cases, but also fun and interesting. What do you think? #screenshotsaturday #pixelart #gamedev #indiegames

DevLog 013 - I am having fun customising creatures & designing the code to generate slight variations at runtime. So, they feel different from each other. Each #creature should enjoy its own personality, behaviour and moods, so it's more fun to face them again #indiedev #indiegames #gamer #pixelart

Too much? Someone is trying to stand out from the crowd. Blending in was getting exhausting! #GameDev #PixelArt #IndieDev #CreatureDesign

DevLog 012 - So, I spent unhealthy amount of time watching animals walk or run. The walks of a monkey/lemur/wolf are distinct. But just in one animal, sometimes the way they walk is completely different from the way they trot or run. 🤯 #indiedev #pixelart #gamedev #nintendo

I am working on building this world bit by bit, creature by creature. This one crawls and hops around. What vibe does this one give you? How is Monday moving for you? #solodev #creature #indiegamedev #pixelart

DevLog 010 - What's the weirdest Long-necked creature you have ever seen? Maybe Loch Ness Monster? Maybe an Ostrich? is there any Long-necked bug? or even a creature from any games? #screenshotsaturday #pixelart #gamedev #indiegames

Experimenting with what kinds of neck behaviors I can do for my creatures. A giraffe or a long-necked lizard probably behaves differently. Idk, maybe I will find something interesting. #indiegame #indiedev #gamedev #pixelart

DevLog 010 - This week has been tough for many reasons. This neck thing will be use in all kinds of creatures, so it needs to be flexible in its behavior. It will work for tails, feathers, hair... 😵 But now it is time to code some animations to bring our game to life. #gamedev #indiedev #pixelart

This gave me some troubles making it look more natural, but it is working now. I like it when enemies follow your position with their heads. I remember playing Mario Odyssey, and being very impressed at how Mario will move his head and look at things around. #gamedev #pixelart #indiedev #indiegames

T&D 003 : So they are Tig & Duck. But who are you? Let's say Hi! in the comments. Hi everyone! I hope you are enjoying yourselves. Let's get to know each other 😊 #webcomic #comic #comicart

DevLog 009 - Coding physics for these chains. I can pull them from the head or tail or lock them in place from either end. Would this work for some sort of weapon? They were meant to be the necks and tails for creatures, but now I think I can use them in many other ways. #indiedev #pixelart #gamedev

Turns out, necks can be very expressive. I am trying some control for the necks so they can be of use. More coming soon! #indiedev #pixelart #gamedev

DevLog008- These look like fireworks made of fishes. I wonder if I can turn them into a creature design for the game. Does it give you any weird ideas? #indiedev #pixelart #gamedev #actionrpg

What can I do with these? They look like fishes. #indiedev #pixelart #gamedev

DevLog 007 - This creature is starting to come together. Now with a neck and tail, will just keep tweaking it bit here and there and add a head. I can't help to notice, but... are birds just evolved Raptors? #screenshotsaturday #pixelart #gamedev

DevLog 006 - Trying to find the right neck style for this creature: not too floppy, not too stiff, just wobbly enough. It is fun to experiment with procedural animations, give creatures personality with just a couple of parameter tweaks. #indiedev #pixelart #gamedev

Meanwhile, new character approaches. A Feline and a Duck, what an odd couple. Odd couple. Odd challenges. Odd World. #webcomic #comic #comicart

DevLog 005 - Just experimenting with Hair Styles. Code-based animations add some randomness to the way the game looks, making it more natural looking, like with hair, tails, feathers, ropes. Is something I always liked about physics-based games. #indiedev #pixelart #gamedev

DevLog 004 I'm using physics-driven and code-based animations to bring the creatures in my game to life, which I think allows for organic and natural looking movements. Are you building procedural systems too? I find it quite fun to work with. #gamedev #indiedev

DevLogClip 003 - In Elden Ring, small mobs can be just as challenging as a Big Boss. Against ten, you might think twice. So, the challenge for me is to make it fun to fight against many enemies at once, and not just annoying. Which game does that best? #gamedev #soulslikes #ScreenshotSaturday

DevLogClip 002 - Do you like it when enemies dodge your attacks? Or that annoys you? Enemies in Soulslikes need to have options to battle you, different attacks, and ways to avoid your attacks; it has to be fair! #indiedev #soulslike

DevLogClip 001 - We are starting a DevLog series. I spent a lot of time creating the features needed to have enemies do more than just be punching bags. That's what I actually like about FromSoftware games, their enemies are smart enough to try to defend themselves from you. #gamedev #indiedev

Realistic vs. abstract? Static comic panels or cinematic video edits? While realistic art immerses you, abstract style connects deeper emotionally. Motion and sound bring panels to life? Which format do you prefer reading? 🤔 001 #MotionComic #ComicArt

Welcome to the first look at our 2D #pixelart action-adventure RPG. Set against the backdrop of relentless rainy night and world defined by sheer perseverance. #soulslike Shadows hide unforgiving challenges and our protagonist is about to find out how unprepared they truly are. Join our game dev!

Our two main characters for this silly #Comic adventure that will keep advancing little by little with each panel. They are an odd couple that will face odd challenges in an odd world. If you like stories, comics, funny bits or RPG games, you might like what we have for you.

Question : Which games you feel proudest of finishing? Is it a difficult game, a long one, or something you thought you wouldn’t like?

Here is what we are working on, the world we are building, will be shared with you, in the form of Challenging 2D #pixelart Videogame, a Story Driven Comic Book that precedes the game story, plus a silly 4-panel adventure just for fun. We will share more with time. #soulslike

Is Mina The Hollower a soulslike? Is looking so good, can’t wait to play it

Is there a thing called a Soulslike Comic? Well, we are making one, a story driven comic about overcoming challenges and this is the first tease. Issue #1 is officially in development. Don't miss the first glimpse of the world we're building.

We’re making this silly four-panel comic for fun and to build a consistent posting habit. Beyond just sharing more often, we want to practice our storytelling and see where we can take these characters within this format. Expect more of these during weekdays. #webcomic

Hi you... This is a tiny part of the world we are building for you. Do you like Games, Comics and Storytelling? We do, and that's why we are sharing these with you. Tell us what you think... lalalalala, see you around.

Sorry :( #webcomic
