Working on some more enemy actions for my indie game.

Snails and other Insectiles with shells can now "take cover" which shields a portion of their body.

This is like the Tetris equivalent of a defense buff!

These might be my new favorite Insectiles in the game, movement-wise.

Pop the flowers off their back to open them up for capture!

Let me show you my favorite Insectile: the Locksnail!

In place of doors and keys in a traditional Zelda-like, Locksnails will be scattered around the world. They act as mini-bosses closing off certain areas!

For this #ScreenshotSaturday, I have a little Before and After! This is Act 1 of Belle Boomerang 5 years ago and today! Look at how much the game's grown!

(Psst! There are new Belle Boomerang stickers in my Creator Sticker Pack! Enjoy!)

Get Belle Boomerang for 50% off NOW on PC or Nintendo Switch! Beautiful pixel art at half price! Sale runs until August 29th.

Are these names fun? Cute? Nonsense? I am trying out this defamiliarized naming scheme for the different species in Insectile. I'd love any feedback!

I'm working on cutscene features like smooth camera movements. Enjoy a snippet of this prototype tutorial!

I've been hard at work on level design sketches the past couple weeks. Maybe I'll post some soon so you all can peek at my process! Stay tuned :)

I'm on Bluesky now! If that's your thing and you want to help me support Insectile, you can find me at: @narwhalnut .bsky.social or, use the link on my page :)

It's been a while, but here's another "Before and After"! This time, it's for The Phantom's Library! How do you feel about the changes made? Also, don't forget that Belle Boomerang is 50% off for just a couple more days!
