Thanks so much! I still consider myself a beginner in pixel art, so I'm very happy to hear if this gives cozy vibes! 😊

Fine tuning my starting level in KAUNA. More gloomier and eerier than before. Wishlist KAUNA: store.steampowered.com/app/3582660/... #screenshotsaturday #godotengine #gamedev #boomershooter

What happens if you shut down a game mid-save? Ask 10yo me, who lost 30+ hrs of FF9 to a lightning strike! Refactored my game's SaveManager this week: writes a temp file, swaps it in once done, keeps old save as backup. Worst case: minutes lost, not everything. #gamedev #indiedev #solodev #godot

Saunagon Escape is now playable from start to finish, yay! Time to polish. Fun fact: roughly 900 cups of coffee went into making it. Though it's only ~1hr long, a lot of work went into the systems: 7 rooms, inventory, save/config managers, and more. #gamedev #solodev #godot #indiedev #pixelart

Finally got the "boring thing" done for my game project: the Pause Menu and all its settings (at least the first version of it). Tadah! I had avoided this like a final boss with no health items left, but turns out it wasn't that scary. #gamedev #indiedev #solodev #godot #pixelart

Sounds like a good time slot for testing! I should arrange a new one in near future.

Buried Cake Games @buriedcake.games · 20/04/2026
Yeah! I should do these more often, too. The thing is, though, that my game's estimated length is about 1 hour, so I can't test with the same people very much 😄

Had two close ones playtest Saunagon Escape earlier this week. About an hour of gameplay, and loads of great feedback on the puzzles and setting. Watching someone else play your game for the first time is something special. Back to polishing! ✨ #indiedev #solodev #gamedev #godot #pixelart

Went outside to record some SFX on ice at −22°C. Got a few good ones for my game, and also frozen fingers 😂 #gamedev #indiedev #solodev

I’m drawing the background for my game's main menu, and I'm really liking how this is turning out. This is still the first, unpolished version, but here goes. #gamedev #solodev #indiedev #pixelart #godot

All 7 rooms are now in place, phew! What started as one sauna grew into a bigger complex with even outside areas. I still need to create and draw a couple of puzzles (plus menus and intro and endings...!), but it's starting to feel closer to done. 🔥 #gamedev #indiedev #solodev #godot #pixelart

Today marks 3 years since I published my first mobile game on Google Play. It's a humorous, endless beer runner. I made it with Godot 3. It's been downloaded only a few hundred times, but played thousands of times, which I'm happy about! play.google.com/store/apps/d... #gamedev #godot #indiedev

Looking good! 👏 It's a great feeling when the save & load system finally works completely.

This is Pixaki, I like it a lot! I tried doing some pixel art with a mouse few days ago but immediately switched back to this. Gotten so used to it 😁

Room by room, pixel by pixel... The escape sauna is coming together. 4 rooms in, about 60% done I think, and it’s starting to feel real. To all other devs: keep on keeping on! 🔥 #gamedev #solodev #indiedev #godot #pixelart

Thank u so much, comments like this really keep me going! 🤗 especially from an artist, since I'm still so new to pixel art and I'm not even sure what is my style yet. Much appreciated 🙏

You too, thanks! I checked your recent animation work and they look awesome! Guess I have to learn some more complex sprite animation soon as well 😄

Somewhere beneath the ice, a key lies buried. Dodge the perch and pikes, hook the key, and reel it in without losing it. Does this look too tricky or just the right level of challenge? 🎣 #gamedev #solodev #indiedev #godot #pixelart

Built a huge inventory script weeks ago. It works. I fear it. And now I must return… for one small feature. #gamedev #indiedev #solodev #godot

Ngl, after finishing my game's room 3 I hit the brakes. I didn’t know what puzzles came next or how the story would end, and that drained my motivation. Went back to my GDD, designed the path, and now I'm hyped to build again. Well designed is half done. ✨ #gamedev #indiedev #solodev #godot

Thank you, we'll see! Have plans at least for one a bit faster and angrier fish. Then I also gotta add the treasure to pick and reel up from the bottom.

There’s just something super satisfying about drawing and coding fish 🐟 These ones don’t get caught, though. They get in your way! #indiedev #solodev #gamedev #pixelart #godot

I am using Pixaki, and I've found it perfect for my pixel art work :) I also have Procreate for other type of art, but haven't done very much with it yet.
