Lowkey hate it when people don’t have a sense of whimsy. Where can a bitch fancifully frolick? Quaint quirks and voluminous vagary wanted. Some caprice on the side, if you’re nasty.

I’ve been feeling real down about my gamedev ability lately. Just feels like everything I make is mediocre.

I can’t talk about the game I’m working on too much right now, but one of the themes of the game is “love is never wasted” and I need to believe that now more than ever. No matter where love goes, it’s never pointless.

Got an hour to spare today or tomorrow? Leave some kind comments on things you enjoy. Tell a developer they're doing a great job, or let an artist know their work is incredible. It can make a big difference in someone's day, trust me.

tall grass autotiling is set up, as well as the first stab at the fake depth. I think this is technically fine, but if I think of any tricks to make it more seamless I'll give them a shot. #gamedev #pixelart

Probably the worst code I've ever written but the game now displays locations of all uncollected treasures - once you've completed the game at least once and "continue" #gamedev #indiedev Check out/wishlist/etc etc here store.steampowered.com/app/4551640/...

The full world map of the game revealed at the start of the game. It's a mess, you're welcome.

The full world map revealed, after the game is complete. It's the same, but with 50 new markers showing locations of gems and treasures.

Honestly, it’s really nice to see how much I’ve improved with gamedev over time. I’m glad I saved my old work so I can look at it and see how far I’ve come.

Set up the menu clock and built out a solid message box system, I think. I'd need to adjust it if I wanted in-line formatting, but I don't think I'll add that unless I really feel I need it. #gamedev #pixelart

I’ve been quietly working on a big game lately and I want to show it but it’s still too early. A friend of mine is helping me and I’m so excited to share about it. I feel like it’s a really unique concept with a nice retro feel.

ok, I now have an efficient text formatting script to make basic textboxes like this easier to make. as usual I'm using Monogram by @datagoblin.bsky.social because I still think its the pinnacle of legible and compact monospace pixel fonts. #gamedev #pixelart #screenshotsaturday

I’ve been quietly reflecting since that last game jam. I noticed a LOT of people were upset they didn’t win or get featured, and I’m like… girl, it doesn’t matter. It’s a game jam, not a publishing deal. It’s nice to be recognized, but… make games because you want to, not to get noticed.

GameSetBoy @gamesetboy.bsky.social · 09/06/2026

I think the next game I make will be a joint venture with one of my buddies and it’ll be a Zelda-like with a neat twist. 👀

I need to level up my pixel art more. I might have to learn how to appropriately apply anti-aliasing and that’s always been something I felt was missing from the stuff I do.

GameSetBoy @gamesetboy.bsky.social · 05/06/2026

I’m gonna fix this clown game up a bit, finish adding some QoL improvements and mobile controls, and then it’s off to the next game for me. Not sure what to make yet.

GameSetBoy @gamesetboy.bsky.social · 05/06/2026

I’m not entirely sure how I could do anything more on theme than what I did, but overall I’m happy with the results! 37 out of 401 is nothing to sneeze at.

"abandoned baseball diamond" is one of the early game biomes I've had planned for ages, so I was excited to test it out here. I haven't designed tall grass yet, but other than that I think the tileset is very much handling the job! #pixelart #gamedev

I'm using a different, expanded palette for the tileset that doesn't overlap with the critter tileset very much, with the hope being that it will help separate the actors from the background. #pixelart #gamedev

my plan at the moment is to keep pretty much the rest of the game true to GBC visual limitations, but I'll allow the player to break the rules in the character creator if they want. #gamedev #pixelart

I’m really happy that people seem to think the game is funny, and someone even mentioned it must have taken a lot of work to make. I think this is one of my most successful game jam games to date.

Honestly I wish I were better at pixel art. I see some stand out stuff on here but I struggle to make anything that isn’t basic.

I might actually do a video of my process and how I feel about the results of the jam once it’s over and get placed. It was definitely an ambitious project for me, but I learned a TON. One of my most enjoyable jam experiences so far.

This is the third mini-game, where you have to find the right section in the liability waiver to convince an attorney to sign it. I wanted to make a magnifying effect, but it would take me too long to figure out and I still need to script floor 3. I think I'll still finish on time though. #gamedev

I finished the 3rd minigame and managed to squash all the major bugs (for now). I just need to focus on the top floor now, which I’m thinking will be a quick succession of 5 micro games after solving a puzzle. I’ll post videos later.
