Two nights, a lot of drinks, and an "oh sh*t moment" has gotten us here!


The boss fight… the one I posted about a few days ago.

Making it was harder than any boss fight in any game I’ve played. He didn’t want to cooperate, he tried to break my computer, and he was a BAD IDEA to work on after a night of drinking.

Had a strange bug: My melee attack is bound to the shift key if the player decides to go keyboard over gamepad (you’d be crazy to do that for this game!).

So I had a bug that crashed the game on melee attack, and it STUCK my shift key function on for my entire computer. Everything I did was all caps, number keys came up as $#$%^@* etc, and the numpad didn’t work at all.

Did I figure out why this was happening? NOPE. I couldn’t - for the life of me - figure out why I couldn’t type in my numeric password to a website, or why I couldn’t put numbers in code, or why capslock was forever stuck on.

Took me literally a whole day to have the AHA! moment, and realize what was going on.

But… lo and behold - a rough working version is here! A bit buggy, way unbalanced, and overall kind of ugly.

To me he’s beautiful!

Meet the forest ogre! He throws his treasure chest at you in ironic fashion, because you KNOW you want it! Just not like this…

Oh man! This is progress! Colored text is impressive to everyone!

Working on a town!

Path of Kami: The Evolution of the Lore

Another house i made long time ago.

Sometimes the suction cup get sticky. Small animation I made in Blender after doing my tutorial on picking up/dropping objects in animations. Crate model by jQueary (https://sketchfab.com/3d-models/game-ready-sci-fi-crate-d98deca6…).

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.

Call it 'wrong turn'!🚫 The feeling of running into a house with only one exit🚪, and being doomed to die. #pixelart #pixelartist #pixelartwork #art #pixel #indiegame #IndieGameDev #indieartist

Spaaaace~

These are background sprites I've created for a game I'm working on at school ^w^ Click on the post to see how the sprites connect. You won't regret it! (personally, I think it's pretty heheh)

Drawn in Piskel using my mouse. Whaddya think?

Hello my space friends! Now I added a space background to the ship. I love that space look but I still feel like stuff is missing. The lighting on the ship needs some improvements I think. Please tell me your opinion!
