iiinova — where your digital self keeps evolving

100% going to use this as an excuse for the world's most convoluted reference that only Canadians will get.

Today's progress: smooth animations, sound effects (unavailable in gif form), text boxes, enemy sprites and collision, and a working HUD. A lot of it wouldn't be possible without tutorials from @krystman.mastodon.social.ap.brid.gy so thanks to all his work. #pico8 #roguelike #gamedev

So yea I wanted to make something fun and I had no idea what to do. I unfortunately missed the 7 days roguelike gamejam but really what's stopping me from just giving myself 7 days to have a working roguelike framework that I can then work with? So I restarted working on a silly idea.

Thank you! I just want to create a little something and try to finish it for once. I've had too many small projects just die after following a small tutorial about them, I think it's time I make something finally. :) I'll have a bit more info about it soon!

Coming back from a long break due to health reasons and my grandmother passing away. Took a week long vacation and decided I felt like trying to create something, so I ended up working on a silly roguelike idea I had abandoned. Very early stages, more to come. #roguelike #gamedev #pico8

I don't hate you I just don't know what object permanence is

Cardboard is trying to expand but the metal foiling won't let it, so it curls up.

Conclusion : The same way to uncurl foils for MTG cards works just fine for your Chinese Riftbound foils. I'll try a boveda pack when I have time to get some. #riftbound #riftboundtcg

Control time: Chinese Progress Day vs Thousand Tails Watcher. Both double sleeved.

Final result for Thousand Tailed Watcher. The card is indistinguishable from other cards in my deck. I've been trying to track it and even with a loose deck in my open palm I legitimately cannot tell the difference. I keep hitting cards other than TTW. Maybe those are the marked ones?

Had a short sleep and came back to some pretty good progress. The Invert Timelines went concave (oops!) so it's going to have to go into a new container with silica gel. They needed a tiny bit more time so they went back in for a little while.

They're curving convex. I have to add humidity so into a Tupperware they go. Trying two methods, water container and wet art sponge. On the left, Harrowing, Unyielding Spirit and Ride the Wind. On the right, Thousand Tailed Watcher and control EN Invert Timelines.

With all the drama regarding Chinese cards and the new CRD for #riftbound I decided to do some science. I acquired some bulk (and a Thousand Tails because it was ungodly cheap). The foils are curling heavily. Worse than MTG

Bootbarian is taking form. We have a mockup and animation frames, as well as a more 8 bit style because I'm a goober who will make this thing in PICO-8 probably. #pixelart #gamedev #pico-8

Trying to find gamedev inspiration by doing #pixelart and I accidentally forgot to give this guy a boot and it turned into a whole brainstorming session. Then I made him a little slime buddy as a placeholder enemy so I guess I'm back to #gamedev

Painting them was nerve wracking because they're just glued together and holding on for dear life. 😬

messing around with anti-airs for Braum and Darius. If you have tag up and a bunch of meter you can delete a 1000 health character from existence (or do like 550 damage meterless) #2XKO #2XKO_Braum #2XKO_Darius

Braum corner to corner using Darius assist and Tag launcher. Ends with Unbreakable and advantage for a mix on wakeup. The 4T does connect but it's very tight on small bodies like Jinx (maybe even harder on Teemo? Will have to test tomorrow...) #2xko #braum #darius

That feeling when you don't know what to paint next... I have units to finish for my 3 of my teams in MCP but also I got MODOK 2 who looks like a silly little man, despite not having a real team to put him in.

Okay I will call slander on this one. Movie is incredible but it was a you had to be there kinda deal. You kinda had to be deep into horror in 1996 specifically to really enjoy it

Did a fun thing this time around where I took a picture at each step of my process. It was actually pretty crazy seeing the whole process and how much each added for the first time. From base colors to washes to layers and then to the finished product. #miniaturepainting #marvelcrisisprotocol
