Ancient reptile discovery, Silescelida acristata #pixelart #ドット絵 #1bit #paleoart
Pixel art of a green background and black details showing Silescelida acristata, a small lizard-like animal from 240 million years ago. It has a lizard-like body, long tail and predatory jaw, with two legs raised as is walks forward, mouth open showing its teeth. The environment is rocky and warm, with horsetail plants and rock around and a bright sun overhead, covered partially by a cloud.

Day 16 and we’re at the final pile of garbage 🗑️ I’ve enjoyed this exercise and I think it has helped me work thru my burnout. I already have ideas on how to add these sprites to my game project and I’m excited to pick that back up soon! #godot #gamedev #pixelart
Plastic containers, bottles, and other packaging in this pile.

Day 15 and in this final push to get over burnout I’ve fallen ill with a summer cold. Take these two boxes and see you tomorrow morning. #godot #gamedev #pixelart
Oblong and strange sized boxes from online purchases months ago.

Day 13 is a pile of old toys. #godot #gamedev #pixelart

Day 11 of posting sprites of literal garbage for my upcoming game about cleaning up the environment and this trash pile could be a city skyline viewed from a distance, but is actually an abandoned tailgate party. #godot #gamedev #pixelart
Looks like a bustling metropolis off in the distance but up close it’s a weak, collection of trash and garbage. Reminds me of a certain country…

aSquarian 👽 @asquarian.bsky.social · 04/09/2025
Day 10 POV you have scarcity mindset and can’t throw away the box something was packaged in because “it’s a good box” #godot #gamedev #pixelart
This box is a little warped but otherwise sturdy and could be used for moving the next time you move in a few years. Better hang on to it.

Day 9 and still producing litter and trash like that one river spirit from Spirited Away #godot #gamedev #pixelart
This pile reminds me of the dishes left in the sink.

aSquarian 👽 @asquarian.bsky.social · 02/09/2025
Day 8 and still feeling like trash again this time three bags worth #godot #gamedev #pixelart
The logical conclusion of the trash bag sprites, this time three of them of differing fullness heaped atop one another as is custom.

Day 5 garbage sprite reminds me of the skag piles in borderlands #godot #gamedev #pixelart
A pile of wet, slimy, nondescript rubbish. Seems like it is decomposing when compared to fresh litter but this will stay as-is for the next hundred years never truly breaking down.
0112
aSquarian 👽 @asquarian.bsky.social · 28/08/2025
Day 4 and I think doing these little trash sprites is helping me get through my burnout, so I’m going to keep it up. #godot #gamedev #pixelart
The common trash bag is often seen in groups. A parent and its child? No, just more garbage.

aSquarian 👽 @asquarian.bsky.social · 27/08/2025
Day 3 of garbage pixels: a small pile of refuse. Unbagged, uncontained and found in every park you frequent. #godot #gamedev #pixelart
A small pile of litter from a recent party in the park. Looks like a broken umbrella somehow found itself amongst the discarded plastic cups, used napkins and paper plates. Did a trash can tip over?

aSquarian 👽 @asquarian.bsky.social · 26/08/2025
Day 2 of posting garbage until I no longer feel like it, behold the cardboard box full of packaging and old mail. #gamedev #godot #pixelart
A cardboard box makeshift trash receptacle full of junk mail, receipts, and the packaging material of the appliance you ordered a while ago.

Day 1 of posting garbage until I stop feeling so much like it, starting off with the humble trash bag #gamedev #godot #pixelart
The humble trash bag, beneath its thin outer skin belies a mystery collection that few wish to discover

It legitimately has been too hot to dev or think and now I’m experiencing burnout so this project is going on the back burner for a few weeks. #solodev

gamedev is easier and more rewarding when you make games that you really want to see in the world… when you don’t at all care about what people will say about it, or if they’ll even play it… but you just make something you’ll be genuinely proud of.
