Small things make the difference


Upon original release of Asteroid Escape, it was very barebones, and lacked a lot of features such as powerups. This is mainly becuase I was in a bit of rush to push it out before I head out for vacation.

But back to the topic, 20 minutes spent fixing up somethings and addind some very small things like a scrolling background made a huge difference in the overall quality of the game.

While yes a background may seem a big change by how much of the screen it affects, but as far as code goes, I have spent 10X as much code on way less noticable things, and that is usually the way of things sadly….

So, moral of the story, take into account all of the little things that seem very inconsequential (no idea how to spell), but added up (or even on their own) they make all the difference.

Been working lately on lots of 'behind-the-scenes' boring stuff that no one really cares about, so here’s a guy playing the sax for some reason.

Another house i made long time ago.

Shadow The Hedgehog X pixel art

In the quest for accessibility, I'm adding Resurrection Shrines for players on the 'novice' end of the platforming spectrum.

In order to unlock the power of a Shrine, you must collect 3 'Souls' from your dead corpses! (the floating blue orbs)

A house I've built a while ago. :)

It nicely separates the snowy biome from the grassy one.

It's built with painted Ebonstone.

I worked so hard to get all four of them to the end safely, but then...

Super Sonic Pixel art.

I remade my main character, what do you think? :)

just made @GlamrockC

I NEED TO FINISH MORE ART DANG IT!!!
