Hello again! I am still looking for either full-time or contract work. I've been working in games for close to 15 years now and have done just about every role you can do on the 2D art side of things including UI, implementation, art directing and team management (and I actually love it all).

Sneaking in one more for #InverteFest right before it ends. Behold my bookish bug #fakemon !! (dex entries in the comments 🐛📖) #pixelart #ドット絵 #pokemon
Three pixel art fakemon are pictured:

bookwurm - a small worm with a book on its back and reading lights on the ends of its antennae.

snugabug - a figure is covered in a blanket and sitting on top of an open book

elemenopede - a large centipede made mostly of books

Three days left to get our pack of 13,000 human-made game dev assets for just $10! Every sale helps us to keep making more sprites, sounds and fonts in future: ci.itch.io/all-game-ass...
The trade offer meme, on the left it says I receive $10, food, bills paid. On the right it says you receive 13,000 hand-made game assets.

I had this little ditty looping in my mind while drawing my recent fan art piece, so I decided to make a quick 8-bit rendition of it today for the Game Boy! 🎵 Maybe this is what a Star Fox game on Game Boy would have sounded like! ⭐🦊 #Music #GBStudio #8Bit #StarFox #Nintendo #SNES #GameBoy

The game has just spawned its very first lava cave, and brave Jocho is exploring it. What do you think his quest here might be?
Screenshot of Stories from Danger's Den, an 8-bit-style RPG with a top-down view. A soldier in red armor is standing in a large cavern with a floor of gray volcanic ash. To his east and west are large pools of glowing lava. To the north is a wall of basalt, and to the south, a pillar of basalt with paths around both its east and its west side. The game's menu is open, so we can see that Jocho is level 3 and has 31 out of 45 hit points and no magic points. He has 103 gold.

Reposting some of my favorite work for Somewhen, my main project. A lot of people have told me I've done a lot of work to make it beautiful and snappy and I think I should return to it to apply all I've learned through Project Kelvin. Both are being made in Godot, so it's a no brainer! #pixelart

rpgmaker definitely isn't the right tool for everyone, but I think using opinionated pre-baked tools to make some games would be very instructive to a lot of folks setting out to make their epic custom dream game. they're a much lower-stakes way to learn important lessons like "how to tell a story"

I just noticed the game speed selector in the godot running window. Not sure how long that has been there but really useful for debugging.

Here's a little behind-the-scenes glimpse of castle room templates that will be used in random castle generation. I'm preparing the smallest room styles first and going up from there.
Screenshot of RPG Maker's map editor, which is opened to a map called "Castle Rooms - Small". The map contains a variety of castle rooms: common areas, shops, libraries, inns, guard posts, and stairwells. The rooms are separated by 1-tile-wide bands of empty space.

A curious settlement that spawned a week ago: a single house, surrounded by a full set of city walls. Though it originated because of a bug I've since fixed, it's given me a design idea.
Screenshot of Stories from Danger's Den, an 8-bit-style game with a top-down view. A house is surrounded by city walls, which are surrounded by a forest. The house has warm gray cobblestone walls, red-brown flagstone floors, and three beds. Three townspeople wander around inside. A guard patrols the courtyard outside the house but inside the city walls. Two adventurers walk atop the city walls.

Last week was my first week back at Stories from Danger's Den development after months on hold. I got watchtowers spawning into the worlds. These small structures have guards who give advice and directions. Sometimes they have an armory, too. #IndieGame #RetroGame #RPG
Screenshot of Stories from Danger's Den, an 8-bit-style RPG with a top-down view, showing a building with rounded corners in the middle of a desert. A knight has walked in and is facing a merchant across a counter. A guard stands by the entrance. There's a stairwell in the back.

One of the best ways to support an indie game on Steam, is to leave it a review! This helps the game pop up in the steam algorithm. So make sure to leave reviews for any indie games you have on Steam that you think deserve more attention!
