Stack a Snack #pico8 game for #FallingBlockJam. I've added more animations, more sprites (gray bunny mouth and unmatch indicator, yay), heart on spit match, some hidden scoring stuff. Feels good! Now cover/label art. I want to make a fun one, dunno how yet. Have a pleasant day!

I'm kind of halfway sort of participating in #FallingBlockJam with a #pico8 game titled Stack a Snack! I want to get a few more things in, and quite happy with how the core plays!

A sprite layout a day keeps.. me happy! Added floor, and also thought hey, what if the blue rabbit cakes are blue? Feels and reads nice.

sprite layout with a white rabbit, a blue rabbit, and a bunch of cake! pink and blue cake! more cake!

Snuck in more sprites. This works ish, for now, it's a bit more information without going wild. I think? A few more sprites for the player bunny (gray one), and then it's coding time!

White bunny spitting cake into a blue bunny. Lots of cakes flying around. A cake mayhem! I think you need to steer the bunny and collect cake, and somehow give cake to blue bunny.

More pico8 game layout progress! And a few sprite animations for the big blue rabbit. 🐰 What do you think, should the cake indicators (above blue rabbit) have other colors to indicate they're information? I'm currently yes on this, but would be good to hear more thoughts.

a gray and white rabbit and a blue and white rabbit, weird cake pieces flying across the screen to feed the blue rabbit, maybe its hungry?

Hehehehe! Tiny video game sprite progress. #pico8

Two rabbits, one tiny gray, one big blue, and a bunch of weird pancake looking cake things falling from the sky, and some on the head of the gray rabbit, one on the way into the mouth of the big blue. I wonder what this is. Outside the gray frame there's a big blue rabbit who chews.

Dad the diver is growing up! Slow and steady. Now to add some fun stuff up in that empty sky.. I have some ideas. I'll see where this goes! Also, sprites! Especially for dad.. I want dad to be wobbly and whimsical. Like a long legged pear! 🍐 #pico8 #gamedev #indie

It's dad! Dave's dad. Dave the diver, Dave. Dad's also a diver, but not that kind of diver. Anyway! Dad the diver is a pico8 game idea that tumbles in my head. Now to add more stuff, and sprites! Yay, visuals! My favourite part of game development! #pico8 #gameDevelopment

You can turn on an alt requirement if you add media, kinda nifty. It's in your settings under accessibility:

Chunked up my logo on my website too. Feels better with my current adventures into tiny games and pixels. And fun to see how my logo handles different styles.

Added a simple contact form to my website using subject and body properties in mailto link. Works for me for now! Might look into a way to handle this "better" later.

A contact form on my website, it has a heading that says hello, a subject field that asks what's the subject, a message field that asks what do you want to say, and a button that says open in your email app.
