HAPPY NEW YEAR #2025!!!

This was for sure a year huh... It quite went pretty fast honestly, but still memorable in many ways!

I didn't got to do what I wanted in 2024: Finishing my dream games, but maybe this year!

Feliz ano novo! (GMT +0/Lisbon timezone)


My plans for this new year

Since I didn't do much in 2024, here's my plans for 2025:

  • Release at least 2 of my games that I got to work on (Dragoon Woosh and Kumper Socks);

  • Start working on my big 2 dream games (Time Tomias and Excalinine);

  • Actually lock in and work on the Time Tomias pilot, since it's for my last ever school project that will determine if I can finish highschool and move on. (And once everything's done, I'll be able to finally share it and then I'll have to do an english dub);

  • Try to adapt to an actual 3D engine so I can actually work on Excalinine (if not, I'll just stick to Turbowarp's 3D extension, but it won't be easy...);

Loving procreate so far!

Decided to finally draw a full piece, so I drew Sonic blowing up some egg gunners (like on that one trailer for the 2005 TGS demo of Sonic 2006).

Also got inspired in KornArt3 (artist on newgrounds) for this artstyle in specific.

1st level: almost done!

Here's a final preview of the 1st level. It consists of 2 separate sections (so far), and a path that will lead to the 2nd level (taking place underground).

Rebuilding the cake themed level! It now has a whole different layout (but still keeps the "vertical" level design feel).

And also enhanced the gameplay flow by letting the player charge a jump while he's in the air! (Good luck speedrunning this game!)

Have fun! I guess.

Trying out the ink brushes in Procreate. They're satisfying to draw with!

Highly inspired in Satoshi Okano's take on Sonic's design (from the Sonic Adventure redesign contest).

The frontpage!

Many stuff can get frontpaged, like art, creations, and even simple text posts!

Please note that the frontpage is simply a spotlight to bring attention to posts. Do not feel unmotivated if you don't get frontpaged!

#GJAsks Strangest game ever played? ENA Dream BBQ for sure.

The game is weird, but in a beautiful way.

Here's an old fanart (still W.I.P) I was cooking up back in march/april. This was on my old tablet but I maybe could finish this on my new ipad someday.

2 Factor Authentication. Like the Google authenticator code or at least a confirmation code through email or SMS.

This has been discussed a lot of times many years ago on the forums, but Gamejolt really needs to add this at some point.

Idea: the ability to pick a frame in a video post and set it as the thumbnail for it (like on Reddit and Youtube)

GJ automatically picks the 1st frame as the thumbnail, and it kinda becomes an issue if the video has fade-in or similiar right at the start.

Late birthday gift: New equipment! (ipad + pen)

And bought procreate with 15€ I got from my game. Very great investment.

I still have to get used to the program and from the pen (I used to only draw with my finger). So my art will be different from usual!
