Ig was getting tired of just eating grubs, so I had to make him some coal and snowflakes to balance out his diet.

#Lawnscaper has a major problem- it’s not clear how your score is calculated. Stripes are like mini streaks where each consecutive tile is worth one more than the last. Do you all have ideas for how to show this without making it too busy?

I'm between jobs this week, and that means I can work on my new #puzzlegame, #Lawnscaper full-time! Let's speed-run a game.

Little late, but trying out @Pixel_Dailies #pixel_dailies for the first time. Here's yesterday's #token.

For this year's #GMTKJam, Duckblade and I made a game where you are the final boss tasked with slaying those so-called "adventurers" that have invaded your home. Punish their insolence with your arsenal of spells and reclaim the realm!

This cruise has taught me something about my new wife. She can subsist solely on bread rolls and soft serve ice cream.

If NASA can smash a multi-billion dollar satellite into an asteroid, so can I.

Let's go everyone! It's finally here! 😳😳

Trying to learn both #blender and #pribambase at the same time. I feel like this is somewhat decent for having never modeled anything before.

Duckblade & I accidentally made an educational game for our submission to #Geojam 2022. I promise it's still fun though.😅

I really wanted to draw a rabbit 🐇 sprite for #Easter, so I did. And then I made a little game around it because I don't know how to not start new projects... But I did get to learn about cellular automata for procedural generation.🤷‍♂️

Engrave different runes into your tools and weapons to give them unique abilities and properties in #ForgottenGods.

This week, I replaced the old mineshaft tileset with one of a more structured and lived-in dungeon to allow for more colors and decorations.

What you think about the new tileset?

#ForgottenGods #IndieGameDev #pixelart #aseprite

[Ben Sergent V @ha1fBit]

Different items in #ForgottenGods have different engravable surfaces with varying sizes and blemishes. You'll have to think about how to maximize your rune placement to improve each of your weapons working around those constraints.

#indiedev #gamedev #rpg #roguelike

[Ben Sergent V @ha1fBit]

Finally starting work on one of the more unique mechanics in #ForgottenGods: engraving! Discover runes while you explore the dungeon, then carve them into your items to make them more powerful.

Keep your enemies at a distance with a bow & arrow🏹 in #ForgottenGods. This more mundane weapon rounds out the ranged options, accompanied by the boomerang and explosive yoyo.
