Going Wild with Emojis :)
What're your thoughts on the use of emojis in video games?
#ti #theinbetween #solodev #thoughts


Looking back into many games out there, I realized not much effort is put into emojis and alert prompts in the game, other than it being a way to tell the player an enemy's about to attack or something like that. Some exceptions are some visual novels though like the 'OBJECTION!' and 'HOLD IT!' in the Ace Attorney games.
So, I decided to try to give my emojis some form of life to further add some emotions to my game characters. Mostly because I was bored and also because, why not? :P

Pipit got a palette change. :) #GameJoltColors #theinbetween #ti

Made some progress, got rid of those early pesky bugs, added touch controls for mobile ;). Expect an early build soon, if you're interested. :D #theinbetween #ti #gamedev #solodev #undertale #metroid

It's been a while since I last stopped by.😅

Anyways, lots of progress has been made on The InBetween; the world's first UnderVania over the past few months

Here's a teaser trailer. A double demo bundle + full trailer will be coming soon. Stay tuned!😄

So...... Out of curiosity, I wondered... "Hey, the game's inspired by Undertale, right? So why not use one of Toby Fox's songs to see how much it rhymes."😅 p.s - I do NOT want to get sued, so I'd definitely change it back to its original song.😉
