I log on today to... 4k followers!? What!?

Should I do something special? Q&A? Something else? Sorry I'm not more prepared, but thank you all so much!

Following demo feedback, I've been trying to design more large encounters.

The fireflies are a great example! Lots more space for big bugs!

Working on a feature that should've been in the demo to begin with... a map! As the Insectile world expands, it will become necessary for thorough exploration!

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 may just be me, but I think this effect is really cute:

With Bubble, you can build a temporary shield. Each tile placed soaks up 1 damage from the next round of attacks. I was inspired by Diving Bell Spiders : )

Game Jolt Colors is back!

Draw your OC (or favorite character) in the Game Jolt color palette and post them in the Art realm with the tag #GameJoltColors25.

At the end of the event, we'll pick a winner & add their design to the GJ Colors sticker pack!

Am I able to make a spider cute?

I'm revising the date of #InsectileContest just a bit!

Since the winner will not be decided until at least Monday morning, I will be accepting submissions through Sunday night : ) There is still plenty of time to design your own puzzlingly-shaped bug!

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."
