They call me "The Fish", sometimes they can't hear me on the phone and call me Jeffid instead of Jessie.

So very very bad week for Guinea Pig game dev. I found out Monday that I'm being laid off of work. And then today my HD broke and I lost about 2 months' worth of game dev. Git works a lot better when you remember to push to your remote repo. ;-;

Been a ghost for a bit, but with results! I made some small test projects and learned a lot about how to make my game easier to work with. Which is good because the new sprite data from the sprite editor tool I made broke my game so bad I had to kind of start over.

[Jessie "The Fish" @JessieTheFish1]

@clemmygames Been making a tool for consolidating my sprite sheets and editing unit data. In one smooth workflow.

[Jessie "The Fish" @JessieTheFish1]

Renaming the stats in my game may be the best thing I've decided to do in a while. Who needs Constitution when you got Chonk? Look at Guilbert, No Brain, No Sheen, No Grace, Just Brawn, Fluff and Brave

@CodeRed_dev Tactical guinea pig combat awaits in Cavy Cronicles. Demo available online now and updated soon. Full launch in 2025.

@clemmygames Because if I don't the guinea pigs will beat me up.

[Jessie "The Fish" @JessieTheFish1]

Since I had to work on art lately, I decided to spend a few days working on some tooling for my game. I made a program that lets me manipulate and pack the sprite sheet instead of doing it manually from 7 PNGs and now I'm adding the ability to create and save the animation data.

[Jessie "The Fish" @JessieTheFish1]

@IndieGameJoe Cavy Chronicles is my Guinea Pigs vs Crustaceans in tactical combat hand animated and done without a game engine! Early demo playable in browser.

2025 is here and I'm going to lock in on Cavy Chronicles and get it released. Though I am debating another name for the game though and rethinking some mechanics. And adding new enemies.

Reminder current demo is free in browser. here. https://t.co/aq47KMzmPB

@CodeRed_dev In school my very very first thing was Hello World. Never touched it since. Even if I was starting a new language from nothing, I'd use a different phrase. Though a dumb mistake with a swear word making it to production taught me to be careful about that phrase.

[Jessie "The Fish" @JessieTheFish1]

I accidentally made a guinea crab sprite today. Probably won't keep it but going to keep that idea in the vault.

[Jessie "The Fish" @JessieTheFish1]

You're making your dream game.
I'm making a game because I know what's good for me.
We are not the same.

[Jessie "The Fish" @JessieTheFish1]

Been playing with some stuff out in a test project so I can make the guinea pig game better. I'm happy with the results so far. I got all the web and keybinding logic moved out of the game into the engine. And I got a 50 line mess down to 15 far more flexible lines.

@RiverMakes Wherever our senior girl chooses to nap eventually the younger slinkies find her and they all cuddle up.

[Jessie "The Fish" @JessieTheFish1]

@thomasbrushdev Probably too late but just in case I have a web demo of my current project. Cavy Chronicles a tactical RPG featuring my actual guinea pig army.

Haven't posted in a bit. Haven't done too much work on games been busy with winter prep. But here, have a pile of our ferrets. Can't be a real game dev without owning a few of these it seems.

[Jessie "The Fish" @JessieTheFish1]

@TurnBasedThurs My game, Cavy Chronicles is a Fire Emblem inspired tactics game with a more dynamic turn system. The hero units are inspired by and voice acted by my actual guinea pigs.

[Jessie "The Fish" @JessieTheFish1]

@BloodyGoodRev Cavy Chronicles is a Fire Emblem like tactical RPG but with my actual guinea pigs inspiring and voice acting the heroes. With a more active pace of combat than traditional tactics games.

@gulbrandr1 1 & 4 are my favorites I love that 1 is dripping with theme and 4 is super clean

[Jessie "The Fish" @JessieTheFish1]

My new demo about playing a murderous inn keeper just dropped! Think I'm going to be done with RPG maker for a long while. It's super easy to get up and running with, but trying to get it to do really fun stuff makes me miss the code mines.
