Thank you! What a compliment! That’s right, the character and most creatures are 3D that’s been rendered out as sprite sheets, so everything ends up 2D in the game.

Ya! Thank you :). I felt like an airlock would be a bit cumbersome design-wise, so I took the easy way out haha

Finally got around to adding a little detail I've been meaning to for a while. Now Copper takes off her helmet when inside a habitat that provides oxygen! 🪖⛑️👩‍🦰💇‍♀️ wow! #indie #indiegame #indiedev #gamedev

Made a new little capsule image/logo situation for Astoria! The previous was just a placeholder so its nice to have something I put a bit more work in to. 🖼️🎨🚀👩‍🚀 #indie #indiegame #indiedev #gamedev

Hmmm... not exactly what I had in mind.. Maybe alien plants just go crazy sometimes 🤔👽🤣 also.. does anyone know what causes a shader to do this in unity? It's very annoying... #indie #indiegame #indiedev #gamedev

HalfSizeAlien @djbolser.bsky.social · 02/04/2026

Updated and added a few new water effects! Much happier with it now 😊🌊🫧🤽‍♀️ Reflections are kind of annoying in 2D 😩 #indie #indiegame #indiedev #gamedev

I thought the line drawing for this small habitat was pretty neat on its own. Lines done in photoshop. 👩‍🎨🖼️🎨 #indie #indiegame #indiedev #gamedev

Recently worked on the lightning visuals a bit! I'm pretty happy with them so far, will probably still tweak thing a bit as time goes on 🌩️⚡️🌩️ Don't forget to build a lightning rod, it will come in handy! #indie #indiegame #indiedev #gamedev

I've always loved mini discs. I wish they were still a thing. I still have my old mini disc player and a bunch of discs. Here's a little loading icon I made for Astoria, and it in-game 💽 Woah! there's a minidisc emoji?💽💽🤯 #indie #indiegame #indiedev #gamedev #minidisc

Thank you! Yeah I thought the dark brown felt a bit better than black and fit in a bit better with the rest of my 2D assets
