Before and after shots of a typical room. By the end, there’s enemy blood and guts all over the floor. Makes you feel like you really accomplished something. Kinda gross, but it’s bright colors - so it’s kinda like a paintball fight 😅 #indiegame #indiegamedev #gamemaker

A sample of all CRT presets in Dragenas :) The names Mitsu, Trinitron, T+, and 2000s, pay homage to tube TVs I grew up playing. Not scientific by any means 😅 but more of a fuzzy feeling. #indiegame #indiegamedev #gamemaker #pixelart

Each Dragena has a unique profile of strengths (& weaknesses!). Shown: Zsa’s offensive powers, Fa’s dashing speed, Ra’s higher HP, & Sha’s ability to attract insect spirits 😊 #indiegame #indiedev #retrovideogame #gamemaker #pixelart

Worm Mode: easy-peasy. Beetle Mode: a good place to start for most. Dragonfly Mode: for the highly skilled and/or completionist. With adversity comes reward! The higher the difficulty mode, the more levels & characters you can unlock :) #indiegame #indiedev #gamemaker #pixelart

New Dragena reaction to earning Worm rank. Since it’s not the lowest rank, and pretty common for players, I thought it shouldn’t be so sad… so this is supposed to be a little humorous 🤷‍♀️ #pixelart #pixelanimation #indiegame #indiegamedev #aseprite

Have you wishlisted Dragenas? We’re at 900 wishlists! Can we get to a thousand?? 😃 store.steampowered.com/app/2923640/... Dragenas is a 2D action game inspired by classics and modern indies alike. #indiegame #indiedev #retrovideogame #gamemaker #2d
