Dead Drift



3 years ago

Couldn't do a larger update today (family time!) BUT I managed to experiment with the Upgrade Cards!

What do you think? Can you guess what the two icons already drawn mean (answer in the article!)

#pixelart #gamedev #indiedev #retro


As I mentioned before, I wanted the cards to feel less "solid", so I left the black color for the outline only and used a softer brown for drawing the card itself. I also added a "worn out" effect on the borders.

Here's the previous version, for comparison:

For the two icons (pic 2 and 3), here's what they mean:

Icon 1, the one with the bullets, stands for the Rate of Fire upgrade. Here are its effects:

One Star: +15% rate of fire for all cars

Two Stars: +30% rate of fire for all cars

Icon 2 should mean Multi-shot (or something like that). Here's what this upgrade does:

One Star: All cars fire double bullets

Two Stars: All cars fire triple bullets

I guess that's it for today! No cool gif, sorry! I intend to have one ready for tomorrow, though! Hopefully, I will be able to implement these two powers, and maybe some others! Who knows?

So long, suckers! See ya

Everybody talking about the Super Mario movie and here I am thinking how cool it would be if they made a movie out of THIS game...

Hey, folks! It's been a while since I talked about Dead Drift, I wanted to give you folks a (not exactly) brief update!

HI! I'm getting close to hitting 1000 FOLLOWERS (woohooo!) and I'm thinking about doing some special things to celebrate this:

- A Fireside where we can play a drawing game together!

- A mini-game using the sock puppets!

What do you think of that?

Madeline is the main protagonist of the mountain climbing platformer, Celeste. The game has been praised for its visuals, gameplay, and introspective narrative. The game's creator Maddy Thorson confirmed that Madeline is trans in 2020.

It's OK if I repost my Jack Black Bowser drawing for the #MarioMovie quest? Some people might have missed it!

Oh, and if you don't know what this drawing is referencing, click on Read Article for the link!

Dive into the cozy post-apocalyptic open world of Critter Cove!

Gentleman Rat Studios (@GR-Rob ) describe it as “a little bit Animal Crossing, a little bit Stardew Valley. Maybe even a little bit Windwaker, too."

It's coming, folks!!! Anyone else excited???

For this #DrawABirdDay I decided to make a simple animation as if Greedy Grackle was one of the Socks from Sock Town!

Here's Greedy Grackle Sock!

Mae Borowski is the main character of Night in the Woods! It's an adventure game that tells the story of her return to her hometown of Possum Springs. She was confirmed as canonically pan in a social media post by the game's creator Scott Benson.
