I've been taking a break from #Cobwebs for a bit to work on another creative project. I had an idea for a detective mystery one-off that I really liked, so I've been humoring that for the last week. The first draft of it is getting close to being done.

OverlordJarvis @overlordjarvis.bsky.social · 06/04/2026

I was struggling the last two days learning how to trigger battles and read the correct enemy data for #Cobwebs but I decided to go with my original method. I'm sure it's not the most efficient but it is functional now!

I just got my kitty to swallow the pill completely by herself by just tricking here into thinking it was a treat I dropped on the ground. Silly girl.

OverlordJarvis @overlordjarvis.bsky.social · 04/04/2026

Love it. It feels very light with the little bounce

OverlordJarvis @overlordjarvis.bsky.social · 04/04/2026

When I eventually launch the social media account for what #Cobwebs and all future games will be under, I'll likely make most updates there. But I'll probably still talk about it more casually here. I want those posts to be more focused.

Been going through a bit of a hard time lately between not getting sleep and taking my kitty to the vet a few times. But she's back home now and I finally started getting some good sleep.

I really like this. Very readable but still looks nice

After looking back on this it made me want to make another review style video. So I may do one for Luminous Arc when I finish it. It's the perfect brand of thing I usually did reviews for on the blog, which is a random pretty average thing not many people know about but is still fun.

Feels good just to create and see something real and tangible from it

OverlordJarvis @overlordjarvis.bsky.social · 28/03/2026

I made this a long time ago, and I'd do a lot better with it today, but I appreciate where I came from and think I did some decent jokes and alright script reading here. youtu.be/uYVA-2QSyJA?...

I feel like there's something to enjoy about most art really. Even if it's just bad there's fun to be had in some way.

OverlordJarvis @overlordjarvis.bsky.social · 27/03/2026

Moving #Cobwebs from RPG Maker to Godot was something I underestimated a lot. It's a humbling experience to see just how much work goes into every aspect of making a game. I've loved games and how they're made all my life, and even though it's the hardest thing I've ever learned, I love it more now.

OverlordJarvis @overlordjarvis.bsky.social · 26/03/2026

Having a general idea figured out will probably make it easier if you want to change it later, too.

010

OverlordJarvis @overlordjarvis.bsky.social · 26/03/2026

Just have to try and take it one step at a time. Sure it will get easier once you start doing the work more often

OverlordJarvis @overlordjarvis.bsky.social · 26/03/2026

In learning to create a turn-based battle system in Godot for #Cobwebs, I got damage numbers working, which is easy to implement anywhere for all damage, thanks to a tutorial!

Getting so tired of companies bothering to humor these people at all.

OverlordJarvis @overlordjarvis.bsky.social · 25/03/2026

I've felt really drained this week physically and mentally, but I still feel like I've had a pretty good one so far. I did everything I really set out to do. But it does make me want to do absolutely nothing now.

000

OverlordJarvis @overlordjarvis.bsky.social · 25/03/2026

It's true. I switched between a few in a short amount of time before my current one. Really tough until you settle into your pattern with it.

OverlordJarvis @overlordjarvis.bsky.social · 24/03/2026

I worked on starting the doc today that will have all the dialogue for #Cobwebs So many cutscenes will be planned out and rewritten there and edited into what will be the final in game versions to be implemented.

OverlordJarvis @overlordjarvis.bsky.social · 24/03/2026

Congrats! Love keeping physical media alive.

I also learned that Stella Glow, another SRPG I played for a bit a few years back, was a spiritual successor of Luminous Arc. It's funny how I randomly stumbled across two connected games.

I've been playing Luminous Arc, an Atlus-published game series I've never heard of. It's alright. Nothing amazing, but still fun. I found it when randomly scrolling through the Nintendo DS library a few nights ago.

Just did some simple work on #cobwebs today by adding the function for SP and getting the skills to calculate it to use them. It's been fascinating to learn how much goes into very simple game aspects people take for granted.

OverlordJarvis @overlordjarvis.bsky.social · 12/03/2026

I've wanted to play one for years. Hoping to sometime soon.

Made this cheeky video stating my stance on AI for my game. To be clear #DinoCleanup does not and will not use generative AI in any step of the development process. I love making art and making my spaghetti code by hand thank you very much 😤 #noai #gamedev #indiegame #solodev #wholesomegames

A lot of my videos have been longer lately, but that's because I'm trying to do entire games in one video, depending on the length. So going forward, I want to try for weekly at least, but will be more or less if I want to.

Really enjoy the choice of color differences for them.

Your game looks so cute! I love the concept.

We're taking part in the #WholesomeUnderdogs festival alongside some other amazing games. If you're into cozy, cute, wholesome games, this is the festival for you! store.steampowered.com/app/3914780/... #cozygame #idler #wholesomegame #indiegame

Promotional artwork for the wholesome underdogs steam festival and Familar Findings game.

The background has the words Wholesome Underdogs, and the date 9th - 16th March. It has 4 cartoon digs smiling on a grassy coloured background with flower petals floating around them.

In the centre of the screen is the artwork for Familiar Findings, which contains the name of the game and three characters. It shows the main character Avia, who is holding a spellbook from which an orange and white cat is being conjured. There is also a red dragon flying and looking over Avia's shoulder.

Made some good progress planning some of the weapon upgrades and shops for #Cobwebs. The different equipment each character has will also allow for multiple types of builds that either play into their roles or completely change it.

I want to start making shorts for the YouTube channel again but I want to focus mainly in highlights. They're fun to look back on and don't take a lot of work then only make the other stuff when I'm inspired

OverlordJarvis @overlordjarvis.bsky.social · 08/03/2026

Life is all about balance and I often lose that balance when I become focused on something. So I very much want to give all my hobbies the time they deserve and I want to give.

OverlordJarvis @overlordjarvis.bsky.social · 06/03/2026

Kinda disappeared for a few days. Was very obsessed with Resident Evil Requiem. Videos for my playthrough are going up now. I'll try to have the monthly video for dev stuff in the next few days. I took a break from Cobwebs but hopefully tomorrow I'm starting work on it again.

OverlordJarvis @overlordjarvis.bsky.social · 01/03/2026

I'm a big fan of how the water looks in general, and seeing them in there like that.

OverlordJarvis @overlordjarvis.bsky.social · 27/02/2026

Resident Evil Requiem's enemies and general vibe feels very Bioshock and I adore it.

000

OverlordJarvis @overlordjarvis.bsky.social · 27/02/2026

Resident Evil Requiem is really fun so far. I'll have to try it later with different perspectives to see how it feels but I think this is a pretty good direction for the series. Giving choice to the player is great.

OverlordJarvis @overlordjarvis.bsky.social · 26/02/2026

I made this video the other day about how hard it is for me to rest sometimes with hobbies, but I think it's still important. Trying to chill is really hard for me, and I'm thinking about that again today because I'm feeling that despite being very productive today. youtu.be/VZRdL60pK10?...

OverlordJarvis @overlordjarvis.bsky.social · 24/02/2026

Something I miss about the blog is those moments when I could just post about any random, unrelated thing and talk about it for a bit. The video today will be a bit of that coming back.

Made another little talking style video. I used to do a lot of just talking posts about random things back on the blog so I want to try to bring them back in video form whenever inspiration strikes.

I'm just glad that TCG Pocket has given somewhat of an easy way to collect the cards again, even if it's just digital. It's such a sorry state the hobby has gotten into.

OverlordJarvis @overlordjarvis.bsky.social · 23/02/2026

I'm taking a break from working on #Cobwebs for the next week. I want to play Resident Evil when it comes out, but also I've also been learning nonstop for the past 2 months for it, so I want to slow down a bit.

010

OverlordJarvis @overlordjarvis.bsky.social · 19/02/2026

Recently got what will be the final boss for #Cobwebs figured out. At least the general concept and idea for the design. I think it will work out really well.

She does. She's not mine though. She's my best friend's Vtuber character.

Just finished replaying the first story for the Resident Evil 2 Remake. Pretty happy with B rank and under 6 hours on hardcore for the first playthrough in years. Figured it'd be fun to play some of the games again before Requiem comes out.
