another #pixel_dailies and #monthlypixels combo post! could still use a some clean-up, but that has to wait 'til next week :) #pixelart #tarot #tower #space #black_hole @pixeldailies.bsky.social

finally remembered to post on #screenshotsaturday! i am building a semi-cozy farming rpg with turn-based combat and roguelite elements :) still very early in development, but i am finally at a point to add content and start polishing #pixelart #gamedev #indiedev #godot

#justice #tarot card! i needed to start working on the #monthlypixels cards anyway, so perfect #pixel_dailies prompt yesterday :) i'm not yet satisfied with the gold effect, but overall pretty happy with how it turned out! #pixelart @pixeldailies.bsky.social #nebula #space

this week i'll be working some more character portraits! i've always sucked at flat coloring, because i always feel the need to add another color to make the transition smoother, lol. i like where this is going though, so i embrace it :D #pixelart #gamedev #solodev #wip #character #npc #indiedev

a #torch for #pixel_dailies! i normally work in a higher resolution, so this was a fun little challenge :) @pixeldailies.bsky.social #pixelart (bluesky keeps messing with the quality, it's driving me bonkers!)

it takes forever, but i love how the forest is turning out! #gamedev #solodev #pixelart #forest #wip #landscape

i'm not really able to code in this heatwave, so i started working on this monster animation instead :) still very rough and WIP of course. currently at 29 frames :) #gamedev #solodev #animation #pixelart #indiedev

Beckx @beckx-creates.bsky.social · 20/06/2026

My personal highlights from the Godot 4.7 release: custom_maximum_size + offset_transform for Controls and tween_await()! Especially offset_transform is going to save me from so many headaches. Fancy UI development is going to be such a breeze from now on, i love it :D #gamedev #godot #indiedev

Beckx @beckx-creates.bsky.social · 16/06/2026

spend some more time on the background and sprites :) still a lot to do, but i love where it's going :) #gamedev #solodev #pixelart #indiegamedev #godot

Beckx @beckx-creates.bsky.social · 12/06/2026

Behold, the first half of the "make it exist first"-meme! :D Started working on a combat system, placeholder UI stands, now onto adding functionality! #gamedev #indiedev #pixelart #solodev #turn-based #godot

Beckx @beckx-creates.bsky.social · 03/06/2026

sketched up some emotions / reactions :) the plan is to have each of them with minor animations, but that's still far in the future. now to integrate them into dialogues, and then it's time to start on the quest system :) #solodev #gamedev #indiedev #pixelart #godot #NPC

Beckx @beckx-creates.bsky.social · 02/06/2026

same character, three completely different looks, haha. Sometimes it's nice to look back to where you started and see the progress! She still needs some clean-up, but i finally found a portrait style! :D #gamedev #indiedev #pixelart #solodev #godot

0231

Beckx @beckx-creates.bsky.social · 01/06/2026

progress of the new character portraits, i'm kinda digging the sketchy vibe. I do want to keep it kinda semi-realistic comic style, but i tend to go overboard with shading, so we'll see how that goes :) #gamedev #indiedev #solodev #pixelart

1133

Beckx @beckx-creates.bsky.social · 29/05/2026

progress! :) moved player animation handling into an AnimationTree, now all i gotta do is draw all those transition animations #gamedev #pixelart #godot #indiedev #solodev

Beckx @beckx-creates.bsky.social · 21/05/2026

aaand the tilemap is back, haha. i use it for tilled soil and to identify what kind of ground we're walking on, so that i can add different walk / step sounds later :) #godot #gamedev #indiedev #pixelart

Beckx @beckx-creates.bsky.social · 17/05/2026

had this hagstone idea for a time / weather display :D #gamedev #indiedev #pixelart #wip

Beckx @beckx-creates.bsky.social · 02/05/2026

I've been busy bringing life into the village :) no animations yet, but i wanted to experiment with the look of sprites vs portraits. i'm also super proud of the wall texture! #gamedev #pixelart #indiedev #wip #godot

Beckx @beckx-creates.bsky.social · 19/04/2026

Started working on a sprite version :) Hopefully it displays right, been having issues with bluesky and gifs lately #gamedev #indiedev #pixelart #animation

Beckx @beckx-creates.bsky.social · 14/04/2026

new profile picture! it's a critter for my game: there'll be different types you can tame (after defeating their boss) and they'll either help out at the farm or in battle, or produce resources :) #gamedev #indiedev #pixelart #godot

Beckx @beckx-creates.bsky.social · 11/04/2026

Coming from the world of CSS, not having a max size was such a hard adjustment for me when styling my UI in Godot. I kinda learned to work around it but I'm still glad it's coming in 4.7! #godotengine #gamedev #indiedev

Beckx @beckx-creates.bsky.social · 07/04/2026

Dandelion poster for one of my shop scenes, finally finished! At some point I'll add a frame to it, but i've been working on this for the past few days and i need to work on something else now, haha. Original size is 171 x 231 px #gamedev #indiedev #pixelart #godot #dandelion #illustration

Beckx @beckx-creates.bsky.social · 06/04/2026

Shop scenes will have this "zoomed in" look / perspective, and i intend to use every available pixel! :D Currently working on the poster in the back, will post it soon once it's finished. #gamedev #indiedev #pixelart #godot

For those dealing with the new image compression blurring their pixel art, this thread is a must-read!

battle sprite WIP :) spend the day yesterday on getting the base animation down, now onto clean-up and turning this into an actual character! currently at 21 frames #gamedev #indiedev #pixelart #animation

life goal: befriending the murder of crows in my neighborhood! canvas size: 256 x 256px #pixelart #crow

Beckx @beckx-creates.bsky.social · 24/03/2026

started this as a realism practice, but i don't feel it anymore, so it'll probably never get finished, haha. Wanted to share nonetheless though :) #pixelart #wip

Beckx @beckx-creates.bsky.social · 16/03/2026

It's kinda funny how game UI needs some sort of sound effect to not feel empty, but we don't react the same to eg web pages or "normal" apps... anyway, worked some more on my gamified task list and added sounds :D #godot #gamedev #indiedev #pixelart

Beckx @beckx-creates.bsky.social · 11/03/2026

Me and my partner both have ADHD and struggle with house chores. Normal to do lists or schedules don't really work, so i thought, why not try to gamify the experience? :D Allowed steps will be determined by the finished task and you gain some bonus when completing one round 1/2 #gamedesign #godot

Progress on the tileset :) Still need to do some color adjustments and clean things up here and there, but i'm pretty proud about how much i've got done this week. #gamedev #indiedev #pixelart #gameassets

0172

Beckx @beckx-creates.bsky.social · 03/03/2026

added some stones :) I'm having so much fun creating this tileset but currently no real use for it, so i decided to keep working on it until the end of the week and then publish it as a free asset pack to itch :) #gamedev #indiedev #isometric #gameassets #pixelart

Beckx @beckx-creates.bsky.social · 02/03/2026

i am having so much fun working on these tiles, it's ridiculous! Currently at 23 different grass tiles lol #gamedev #isometric #pixelart #indiedev #gameassets

0123

Beckx @beckx-creates.bsky.social · 02/03/2026

Taking a tiny break from my main project to work on some isometric tiles :) #gamedev #pixelart #indiedev #gameassets

Working on a little corner players can unlock to replenish their stamina during sunny days :) #gamedev #indiedev #godot #aseprite #pixelart

Beckx @beckx-creates.bsky.social · 23/02/2026

dropped items persist on map change :) something that annoys me most when playing this sort of game is when they don't. so, they'll persist until the end of the day, then some (not all) get moved to a "lost and found" chest. #indiedev #gamedev #godot #indiegame #pixelart

0111

Beckx @beckx-creates.bsky.social · 22/02/2026

item pick up is still missing, but throwing them out is working :) #gamedev #indiedev #godot #pixelart

Beckx @beckx-creates.bsky.social · 19/02/2026

More inventory progress! Not sure if i keep displaying the HUD part when the inventory window itself is open, but if i do, they work together :) #gamedev #indiedev #godot #pixelart

062

Beckx @beckx-creates.bsky.social · 19/02/2026

Been refactoring the inventory logic, 'cause the concerns were not really separated, lol. then i used the new logic to build the HUD inventory :) We have splitting one off / in half, stacking and switching around #gamedev #indiedev #godot #pixelart

0123

Beckx @beckx-creates.bsky.social · 16/02/2026

redrew the other portrait i had :) i like this style way better, yapyap #gamedev #indiedev #pixelart

0142

Beckx @beckx-creates.bsky.social · 14/02/2026

Still not finished, but this is a placeholder portrait i can live with now :) #gamedev #indiedev #pixelart

1114

Beckx @beckx-creates.bsky.social · 14/02/2026

redrawing my portraits again, lol. they're not necessarily bad, they just don't align with the overall style i'm going for. and although the game is still very much in placeholder art stage, i just can't stand looking at them, haha. #gamedev #indiedev

052

Beckx @beckx-creates.bsky.social · 13/02/2026

i'm not really satisfied with the humanoid portraits, but this one i like :) still needs some work, but i got to go back to sprites for now #gamedev #indiedev #godot #pixelart
