The best thing I contributed to Deltarune Ch5 might honestly just be the 1px head bounce from kris/susie/seth when aqua jumps on them.

I guess technically I should take the play-test down at some point. Already went 10x further than I thought😆 Could still use more feedback though🤔 Been changing a few things around based on it so far #pixelart #indiegames #indiedev #GameMaker #zeldalike

Made a rudimentary hint system. Triggers need to be worked on. Honestly, with how things are set up, I could totally have dialog that exists within level spaces themselves, so custom hinting is doable. Might want to sketch that out sometime soon?

This looks great! I love this in 2D games. It's always such a cool visual effect.

I really enjoy seeing creators covering the truly obscure games on Steam. I follow a few people like this and it's actually such a good market to be in nowadays. I'll be sure to sub to your channel :)

I've written 2 chapters of the 15ish chapter video I'm working on for my next YouTube video. Is a single two-hour long video better than 2 separate one-hour long videos? Or should I split it into even more parts? I'm considering making it even into four separate episodes. Like a short season lol

Fundamentally I think videogames are a medium that (most of the time) gets worse the more the texture is obfuscated. It is not a medium where it's beneficial to hide the artist's hand; The details of the craft are more compelling than the artifice.

That feeling of your escapism game coming to an end is so upsetting. Just sort of evaporates away all at once.

Haven't had a lot of new material to show lately 'cause most of my work has been going into a long-overdue reworking of my code-base and general workflow. It's important work that'll pay off in the long run, but definitely feeling antsy about not being further along in a new project.
