Thanks! My wife taught me pixel art, so it's a bit of a tribute to her as well 💖

You know, sometimes I'm just going along minding my own business when suddenly I remember that there are people out there that can just... see. Y'all just wake up every morning and see. Like, clearly. With your own eyes. Rude, honestly. #glasses #contacts

Forge with the door opening. Not sure I want that animated though, I might leave the door open while you're working. And definitely not at that frame rate, cause wow that looks possessed lol #pixelart #2danimation #indiedev

I made this for fun😄🖤 Haven't tried animating in #1bit before, thought it would be a fun challenge! Dither masking is a real life saver for this kind of animation! #ドット絵 #pixelart #animation

it's a CURVED stone omg I feel so dumb lol I think that was my biggest problem. I don't imagine any bounce light from below, but I'll need to check the broader scene to be sure.

Working on the grindstone, I feel like my shading is off... Light is coming from the right, but it still feels not quite right. #pixelart #assets #indiedev

Just a couple more sprites going into Thorge! Decided to completely redo the anvil after playing a bit of classic wow. You know, as any sane person does. #pixelart #indiedev #2dsprite

I should really go to sleep, but I can't get the idea of a desktop wizard out of my mind. What if it helped me focus? Obviously a late night wip, no one judge the quality. #pixelart #2danimation #wip

Made some tillable assets for the sword forge game. Should probably think of a name at some point, huh?

I have cocooned myself in at least four blankets with hot chocolate and am designing a cafe built on the snout of a mountain range sized dragon and doodling pixel pumpkins. I think I have ascended beyond cozy maxing. #cozy #ttrpg

Found this in the wild UFO's of Taito and I absolutely spent way too much money trying to get it. Please subscribe to my patreon so I feel less bad about it and definitely not so I can go back and keep trying.

I think Chaucer from A Knights Tale might be the greatest written character in cinema history. Honestly, just peak writing.
