As of today, I've been on Game Jolt for 8 years! Time truly does fly when you're having fun. There's a lot left to create and share. I look forward to the future of our journey together and thanks for your support after all this time!

As a massive thank you, an art piece was crafted to celebrate 5000+downloads. I remember this project started out as a simple sequel to Monster World IV, but it has expanded to great lengths and I've met so many cool folks because of it. You all rock!

The "Game of the Month" discount for Wonder Boy: Asha in Monster World ends on October 9th! It would mean a lot if we could have some assistance as sales of recent entries will help develop new ones. Thanks!

A second version of an Asha chibi for the 30th anniversary of Monster World 4. This game and character mean so much to me and I wouldn't be the creator I am today without it!

An accolades image to celebrate the 5th anniversary of the game's initial reveal. I gathered some of the best commentary around from various locations and in DMs. Thank you all for everything!

A new patch is out that fixes the location of a Synth Crystal and fixes some typos too. Let me know if you find anything else in the game that needs some fixing. We're always listening.

The item is at the Meka Castle's bridge.

Monster World IV 30th Anniversary Upcoming!

A celebratory piece for Shantae's 21st anniversary today. But this time, she's accompanied by her "otherworldly sister", Asha from Monster World 4. I had a wonderful time making this one and enjoy!

A Monster World IV 30th anniversary piece of Asha that was originally abandoned in February finally got finished! I was in doubt on if it would be transferred to a complete work, but you know what they say, when in doubt, pinky out!
