Enjoy a clip of my Metroidvania Month game I'm working on (nearing completion) if you don't mind being spoiled on how a character without hands could ever have a climbing animation.

Screenshots of a Skelltuns game shared without any context on what it is or how it plays. Is it new? Well, have you ever seen these scenes in any of the existing ones? (Skelltuns games make for great just-for-fun side projects.) #gamedev #indiedev #indiegame #indiegames #madewithfusion

Fun fact for pride month: Did you know Swordius Von Sue-ord from Skelltuns is nonbinary? And so is Deserkill from the same series? Swordius uses they/them pronouns (though is ok with any pronouns) and Deserkill uses he/they. The more you know!

Two skeletons stand on reflective metal on a dark background. The skeleton on the left holds a sword, the skeleton on the right is holding nothing. Nonbinary flags made of rocky-looking textures appear below each. On the left, there is text to indicate the name of the skeleton character on the left. "SWORDIUS. They/them. (any pronouns okay)." On the right, there is similar text to name the skeleton character on the right: "DESERKILL. He/they."

How's everyone feeling about this new intro for Exo-9 Battle Goat, my Mega Man X-inspired action platformer that I've been working on? #indiedev #indiegame #gamedev #MegaManX

Working on Exo-9 Battle Goat, my Mega Man X-inspired game, some more. I think I like the concept I have for the stage opening now for when you choose a stage. (Stage select screen itself is still WIP. Recording lingers on it so long mostly to show off the song!) #gamedev #indiegame #indiedev

Well, here's an introductory post. Might replace later. Hi, this is Adam of Happy Frog Games speaking. I make video games. Lots of video games. Probably most well known for Xenogunner, however. Currently working on a follow up, Xenogunner Returns, among other things. #gamedev #indiedev #videogame

Sometimes for fun, I've been working on this side project, a loosely UCN-inspired comedy game called S.A.C.C.E.D (importantly, game does NOT have jumpscares, the lack of them is part of the point). Today, I added a funny mechanic that makes something happen every time you press the M key. #gamedev

Hm... wait... It says I can't upload videos but let's see something... it lets me attempt to upload it by dragging and dropping...? ...oh. I see. Seems I can upload videos here by drag and drop just fine, unlike my personal account... Interesting.

Alas, my game dev account is not allowed to post video yet. -_- Have this picture of a pixelated robot instead for now, I guess.

As of today I have 8 boss designs for Exo-9 Battle Goat. So... here's a work in progress stage select screen using the designs in question, with some portraits I just finished making specifically for it. #gamedev #indiegame

Stage select showing portraits of 8 bosses. Starting from top-left and moving clockwise, the bosses are, visually: A red bird with a pink cowboy hat, a blowfish with a bowler hat and a monocle, a turtle in a blue armor suit, a bear wearing a crown, a box with a hole cut out the front of it with a cat under the box, a close-up of a strange bat robot made of sand-like nanobots which are shown to leaking out from the body, a close-up of a dog wearing a visor, and a rabbit with a rather bright (almost glow-y) green color to it and a hollow-looking eye.

Templar Tortoise #gamedev #aprilfools #exo9battlegoat (Btw, despite the day I'm sharing this on, the design is real... it's just his unarmored design that you won't be seeing as much. Thought it'd be funnier to share it first given what day it is.)

A Tortoise with a gray shell, a slightly strangely shaped head, and weird looking eyes and a very small tail and small feet and legs.
