Game dev couple building a cozy mobile game featuring chinchillas, Chinchilla Valley! 🐭🐾 Follow us for updates and sneak peeks 🎮✨

It's all slowly coming together! The Chinchilla village is starting to feel lively 🥰🐭

Getting the game style just right is tough 😅

Rupert is my favorite chinchilla so far. His button eyes are lowkey cursed, but I kinda like that they don't change. 🐭🪡

Lol I added physics to the new galaxy chinchilla's planetary ring and I'm having way too much fun wiggling it around.

Who needs After Effects for motion graphics, when you can animate everything using Spine2d instead. 😂
Finally have a logo for our game, and a cute animation to go with it~

@Inchoate_Chess Thank you so much!! ❤️🐭

[Cozy Lunacy @cozylunacy]

We won't talk about the fact that logo design scares me and that I've been avoiding it for a while now. How do other people come up with cool logos for their games?? #gamedev #indiedev

[Cozy Lunacy @cozylunacy]

Look at how cute they are!❤️
After some trial and error, I think we've found a way to make a cuddling animation possible in the game! Had to jump through a lot of hoops in both Spine and Godot, but it was definitely worth it~

Yippee got the guardian tree and spirit working in the game~
The animations are definitely still rough, and the menu itself is unfinished, but it's cool to finally see all the pieces together.

Playing around with some UI designs. Doesn't really scream UI yet, does it?
Also, lowkey forgot that Spine can be used to animate things other than characters.

What do I do when I don't want to learn how to model slightly more complex shapes?
I make 2D sprites, throw it on a plane and call it a day~~

You can now spy on the chinchillas in their homes~~

We added a x-ray function that lets you slide your finger over a building to see inside. There's also an option to fully remove the front wall.

Made a few small changes and suddenly the game looks way better~ (I say small, but I spent like 9 hours redrawing all the 2D art... 🫠)

Kind of unintentionally added googly eyes to the frog hat 🤣🐸

Some silly chinchilla doodles I made for a video. The Zelda reference is my favorite one~

[Cozy Lunacy @cozylunacy]

I haven't been 3D modeling as much as I'd hoped, but I finally made something new for the game!
I'd want to add something inside the pot, but what do magical chinchillas even eat?

Trying to come up with a new currency on the fly for our chinchilla game. We’ve been using dandelions up until now, but I’m thinking about what other snacks could work as currency. I figured bee pollen could bee a fun option~ 🐝🍯

What is holding a pencil and doodling concept art....? Been busy trying to edit and post daily videos that I haven't had time to draw.

Working on new chinchilla animations~
Also, meet Fern! A moth-ical chinchilla who may appear some nights 🌙✨

Long time no update! 😅
Haven't been able to post updates since our progress really slowed down for a few months. But now we've made a New Year's resolution to get back into game dev full time!

Here's some updated UI I plan on adding to the game soon~

Now we can fully focus on the development of Chinchilla Valley~ Wish us luck! ✨

Took inspiration from Geralt's bath scene in the Witcher when I was making the chinchilla sand bath animation for our game 🛀
