These bros at the gym don't even know I'm deadlifting to dancing queen and broken glass.

[John Villapando @johnVILLAPANDO]

@JPKotzeGames Holy smokes first off, amazing.

Secondly, Deadlift Town, next to Deadlift Square.

okay, kidding. Novice Cove. Or like... Perkle. It looks like a happy little town where a player starts their journey, yknow?

Happy #FollowFriday folks! Check out the amazing beautiful concept artwork by @Mr_Abubu who did a lot of the opening concepts for our game Wyrmhole.

Kishi absolutely brought these text ideas from paper to life, and we're so happy with where these took the game next!

[John Villapando @johnVILLAPANDO]

@CalamityJune_ FR though -- okay but minus spicy for me cuz i'm a wimp. but the adobo rice and the gravy and the fried goodness, bless the jolliest of bees.

My long-winded self writes about the origins of the ever beloved random encounter in a JRPG -- and why / how we changed it in Wyrmhole.

Loved working with both of these artists and it's been a gift being able to see my text ideas come to life from concept to pixel art. Pixel work by the amazing @JPKotzeGames

[Triverske @Triverske]

Possibly one of the most fun things is to watch a concept go from concept to Pixel Art Realization. One of our characters and our protagonist's foil/rival in our upcoming game, Wyrmhole. Yes she is wearing a romper, yes we asked for that.

Artwork by the great @JPKotzeGames .

@DoctaAfrikan idk i like the doc part and specifically calling you doc. i feel like everyone here just calls you doc haha. That also said i like the "Afrikan" part of the name. maybe it's like debonairdandy -- where everyone *knows* the debonair is there, but everyone calls me dandy?

[John Villapando @johnVILLAPANDO]

There’s a person on the internet who has never done the thing you did and would like to tell you how you should’ve done it.
