Added some ambient traffic to a shady city for my game. They'll be driving in and out of this tunnel. 🚓🕳️

(Made with Unity's particle system)

REJOICE! For all Saved Files shall now survive the approaching update... ☁️➡️📦 Basically, we coded a thing so nobody's save data gets scrapped or corrupted when the DLCs drop. #UnityDev #gamedev #debug

Today's mission has been sprucing up maps so players can't just walk past all the interesting obstacles. (That mostly means strategically placing rocks, trees, and walls everywhere. 🪨 )

Each pony has DOZENS of expressive animations. That's why it takes so long to get each one from single concept sprite to finished in-game. (Aseprite's the tool used to get these pixels moving around so nicely.)

We made a scene validator tool today that tells us exactly which NPCs are misbehaving and how to fix them. #madewithunity

Got a whole handful of features done today. It's really nice when our second programmer soars overseas to us and we get to go HAM all weekend on the project. Feels like a real indie studio with the three of us giving it our all in the same room.

You can hardly tell in pictures, but these monitors have completely different color settings and it changes the feel of the Peridot Woods map so much it's crazy. 🌳

Everyone's talking about The Big Game 🏈 today, but we only have room for the Big Game 🎮 we're making together on our minds this weekend! #indiegamedev #SuperBowlLX

Putting your opponent to sleep is a dirty trick, but an effective one.🥱😴

This week we're going map-by-map and setting up all the crazy things that happen. Then we end each day with a quick playtest of the new areas and take some notes on improvements to make first-thing the next morning. #screenshotsaturday
