Okay but would it be silly for my dungeon to be a side scroller while the rest is top-down, or would it just feel lazy #indiegame #solodev #crittercity

Not to worry, I’m still working on this game— and here’s a glimpse at the big picture! #gamedev #gamedevelopment #indiegame #aseprite #mapmaking

I’m taking a short hiatus from game dev stuff because, frankly, my Halloween special interest is Getting Me. Please expect a lot of Halloween themed drawings and illustrations.

There was once a time when I wanted to be a UI designer professionally. It is now my least favorite part of #gamedevelopment , and it shows. #gameUI #UserInterface #pixelart #aseprite

From last night #speedpaint :-) I’ve been feeling #spooky lately

I’m still very much working on my game! But sometimes it’s just so fun to do #digitalart, and it comes together so much more quickly than pixel art. If you couldn’t tell, my heart is already in #spookyszn

The #speedpaint :-) had to cut it a smidge to upload but nothing vital was missed methinks

I’ve got a lot of dialogue done!! Nothing that I can show but I sure can tell ya about it

LilyValleyGames @idgreene.bsky.social · 26/08/2025

Got so mad designing a character sprite that he’s just gonna show up in V 0.2 now. Rationally. This makes sense, as he’s more connected with later-stage game mechanics. However,

This week will largely be full of writing dialogue and character animations. I’ll be starting Monday! In the meantime, I shall take a nap and do some house work :-)

Just realized that I forgot to post the completed book cover #aseprite #pixelart #gamedev

LilyValleyGames @idgreene.bsky.social · 15/08/2025

In better news, I AM getting dialogue written and you can gossip with your neighbors in this game #gamedev

Finishing character animations and portraits, vital to getting a demo out: 🦗🦗🦗 Writing the plot-irrelevant flavor text about a fish that’s a private investigator: I am going down sooo many creative rabbit holes

I’ve been trying to compose the theme song to Critter City! I wanted it to feel welcoming but mysterious and maybe even sinister at the same time. How do you think I did? #gamedev #gamedevelopment #music #gamemusic #musiccomposition

This is a #pixelart #WIP for a memoir of #flavortext-- I got so into the story I had to draw out the book's cover. #gamedev #gamedevelopment #aseprite

Still taking pixel art commissions! I make tiny little items, website banners/buttons, moving characters and general pixel art illustrations! Prices vary from 15USD or more depending on size, detail and if its animated! vgen.co/momentaryuni...

On a background with faded foliage, tall grass and fog, Meg a white character with red hair in pigtails and a dark basketball outfit runs panicking in the background, on the right side there is a character named Dwight who is a white man in the family guy dead pose meme with a white shirt, and dark pants covered in blood, his glasses are on the ground close to him. In the foreground Jake an Asian character is crying, screaming and panicking with only his face and some of his hair visible.
On the left side Claudette a black character with a pink outfit, pink lenses, and an afro is looking happily at a book that says "HELP" with a pink exclamation point over her head.
The text at the top right says "Survivor Guide 2025"

The un-fun part of #gamedevelopment: project management. I'm certainly managing, but this spreadsheet in particular is really hammering home how much work is going into Critter City. This is just character work, too.

In Tezzel, broken tiles aren't just discarded: they become part of the wall’s decoration, just like in Gaudí’s Trencadís, where broken ceramics were reused to create stunning mosaics. Demo coming next week! #PixelArt #PuzzleGame #IndieDev #GameDev #LogicPuzzle #CozyGames #Art #Barcelona

Me: I'm not going to work on the Sturgeon Trellis series. It's just flavor text. I'm taking a week off from game development for my mental health. Also me: Are shrimp nocturnal or diurnal

LilyValleyGames @idgreene.bsky.social · 07/07/2025

I’m taking a week off from game development— turns out that between working full time at a day job and working on a passion project in the evenings, you can get burned out! Who would have thought

Today while walking my dog, I heard a crash from the foliage above and saw a squirrel fall to the ground with other debris (leaves)

Me: Phew, I'm bushed! Best not to work on the game tonight Also me: What if I did some dungeon and enemy sprite design. What if I added a whole mechanic to my game? Scope Creep: 😘 #gamedev
