fun fact !

art in an a game doesn't necessarily have to be beautiful, all it has to be is both feel right and look special


by feel right i meana:

consistency (you want all your assets to work well together)

practicality (important things like the player, collectibles, power up's, enemy bullets should all pop out of the rest of the game, don't wanna make the background art so detailed it's the only thing your brain can process 🥔)

and finally, color theory (not only do you want all your colors to feel right, but you also want a warm place to feel warm and a cold place to feel cold and so on)

i see so many indie devs making games with the idea that all they need to learn is how to code, witch is just wrong

if you actually want your games to succeed then you'll need to learn things like sound design, marketing, graphic design, story writing, scene composition and a lot more, so you better get ready for all of that 🥔

or you could just make a short horror game and then plead for someone slightly popular to play it, that works too 🥔

(all of that also applies to people who are working on big undertale fan games)

Any of you got any ideas for how the void should look like? something more interesting then.. voidy?

Like a snowy cave or a castle in ruin or idk something like that 🥔

(All assets are place holder packs i found online, couldn't find ow artist)

woke up from a nap and immediately made this for no reason

who could've known making a metroidvania is hard?

luckily, the map isn't as big (compared to other metroidvania maps) so it shouldn't be THAT hard 🥔

also if any of you know about any other UT themed metroidvania's please show me, i need some inspiration 🔥
