"My boy, you are nothing more than a thief in a suit of the finest armor" - Laughed the Vulture While I'm pixeling, I like to listen to the music that feels right for the character's vibe. 🎵 Hows this track feel for the Vulture? #pixelart #indiegame #characterdesign

Meet Zoe! my little dog, and Goguma, the little opal fox she inspired 🐺 So much of LUCID is inspired by the people, places, and moments that mean the most to me Theres a little bit of real life all throughout the game. I think thats what gives it so much heart. 🌸💜 #IndieGame #mansbestfriend #dog

What's the most important part of a great Metroidvania? 🗺️ Exploration 🏃 Movement ⚔️ Combat 🧩 Level design 👹 Boss fights 📖 Story Architecture taught me great design is holistic. That's LUCID: every mechanic supports another to create flow What do you value most? #IndieGame #PixelArt #Metroidvania

Hey #FGC whatd you think of the latest #AvatarFighters Open Beta? What did it get right? What still needs work? If movement, spacing, and expressive combat clicked for you, youll likely dig LUCID too. Its built around many of the same core fundamentals 🌸 #FightingGames #AvatarLegends #IndieGame

Honestly, same! Digital tools are great, but pen and paper is still the fastest way I've found to explore level flow and movement ideas for LUCID. 🌸 #gamedev #indiegame #metroidvania

Flow doesn't happen by accident. I play, adjust, test, and replay every section of LUCID, countless times until movement feels just right. Here's a glimpse into the process. 🌸 store.steampowered.com/app/1717730/... #metroidvania #pixelart #indiegame

Majora's Mask is legit one of the most unsettling Zelda games ever and sometimes I wish there were more games in the franchise like it. I love this game so much.

Be honest. How much of LUCID's DNA comes from each of these? Super Metroid: ? A Link to the Past: ? Mega Man X: ? (1–10) #metroidvania #pixelart #retrogaming
