My next game is almost done! It was a bit of a depressing one to make but at least I had fun play testing it by making silly doodles!

WIP screenshot of My Happy School Life, an agenda is full of stickers and post-it notes with journal entries "I love school and school loves me, I am the good kind of [hidden by a heart sticker] I listen, I learn [hidden] My parents told me it was important." "I am in middle school. I am a ginger kid." "Both [hidden by a sticker] were first generation college students, they worked hard to climb the social ladder. They taught me to have respect for the institution."
Stickers include characters from previous games I made (Big Snake, Danatia, Midnight Tram, Kallypse), two sheeps in love, fish, moons, the word "LOVE" written with rainbow colors and flowers.

WIP for My Happy School Life game. An agenda page is full of stickers. A lot of them are round smiling yellow faces, someone drew a different nose for each with a blue pen. On the bottom right a cat is surrounded by moons, stars and flowers. A dinosaur is holding a treble clef.

WIP from My Happy School Life game. A blank page is adorned with stickers. In the bottom right corner, a post it note says "I am in elementary school, I am a good kid." In the center, a deer person is held upside down on top of a boiling cauldron. The drawing is made of stickers and hand drawn elements. A happy dinosaur and three sheeps are observing the scene.
On the right side, the interface for the game is visible. It offers various stickers to choose from and a post-it note reading "I love school and school loves me. I am the good kind of student. I listen. I learn. I behave. My parents told me it was important."

After months of working on a big update for The Midnight Tram I finally have some big results! Everything from the prototype was rewritten to accomodate for advanced npc interactions, better line of sights, bigger levels, slicker menus, inventory systems, and even tools to predict the future!

Big Snake just received an update! On top of a better user experience it offers booster packs adding unique new scenes to your games. Don't miss out on the three new endings and the fancy unlockable foils! (link in the replies) #game #indiedev #lithobreakers #snake #groSerpan #bestCardGameEver

Another fun glitch that is sadly patched out by now messes with the character's memory of the map, turning exploration into this weird dreamlike sequence where the walls seem to rearrange themselves around the player.

Outside of the bounds of the screen, I have found this group of fish, chilling upside down. I think they're taking a break in between two of their shifts swimming the screen.

And so I thought I'd share the glitches I've seen while trying to add a dungeon crawler to The Midnight Tram. At the very least it's visually interesting.

Screenshot from The Midnight Tram, the vfx for the time travel is frozen in place, inverting the world's colors.

And here is what the menu looks like in game! I think big snake is winning.

Made this background for Big Snake's main menu. This was my first update post release, along with some quality of life improvements! The next step will be adding new cards and story events! Can't wait!
