iiinova — where your digital self keeps evolving

This social media stuff is so hard to keep up with😭 I promise I've been hard at work with the levels outside of the village. First time making (ice) caves. I was a little scared ngl but it's getting somewhere. #gamedev #indiedev #ue5 #platformer

screenshot of a stylized ice cave. Everything is blue/teal, shiny and glittering. The main character, a 10 year old girl with fluffy blue/teal hair almost vanishes against the environment but that's just cause she's not sporting her winter outfit in this shot.

Mushroom girl (who's actually a wind spirit and does not like it when you call her mushroom girl) stands in front of a swampy green and ominously shining lake and a withered tree with some more mushrooms sprouting all over it. She has a mushroom hat too so no wonder she's called mushroom girl.

It's been so long since I wanted to reveal the mushrooms but here they are (+ a bonus flower). They're platforms to jump onto so they're relatively big. Can't wait to show them in the actual environment but it's gonna be a while until the reveal😭 #indiegame #gamedev #3Dart #blender #cozygame

a giant blue flower with a dark green stem. The flower head is sphere shaped with small petals only slightly protruding. A big flower head is at the top and tiny ones are sprouting along the stem. The flower has long sparsely places leafs. In front of the flower is a small star shaped mushroom and there's a white vine coming from the bottom of the plant, making it's way all around the plant until it stops right at the big top flower head.

Relatively classic mushroom with a flat round head that's light yellow with darker yellow specks placed throughout. The bottom is a bit pear shaped, also light yellow but with darker brown grooves. There are three of these mushrooms: Just the top part, a smaller but straight mushroom and one that's biggest and slightly bent so you can place it at the side of a tree.

one flat round mushroom that grows on trees and another one that's made up of three spheres but fused. The underside is light green while the top is bright red with darker red holes throughout. Looks slightly like a pomegranate

two light teal colored mushrooms that look like cushions or poufs. One has a stem that's a purple color and looks a bit like the bottom part of a spring onion.

I'll rename Shards. Shard turned out to be a confusing word for what it is. Most people assume different things when they hear Shard, all of them are differing from my concept. I don't really think there is a word for what they are, so I'll just create one. Feedback appreciated! 1/5 #indiegamedev
