How it started vs the end result of Keypress Burger 🍔 Learned a lot! Especially about using Godot. Can’t wait to further explore the engine for future games! #gamedev #godot #pixelart #indiegame

For Keypress Burger, I used Aseprite for the first time, and I loved it! Really intuitive and easy to use, definitely my go-to pixel art tool for future projects 🙌 #pixelart #aseprite #gamedev #indiegame

🔊 Created an audio manager script for my first Godot game, which I hope to re-use and extend for future projects! I added a pitch down/up transition when you pause the music, for some extra audio juice 📻 #gamedev #godot #gameaudio #indiegame

I really liked the idea of an animated visualizer for the burger orders, showing the requested toppings and the amount of each sauce. As orders get bigger in later levels, the time offsets between the toppings get smaller, to keep the total animation snappy 🍔 #gamedev #godot #pixelart #indiegame

First time using tweens in Godot, for these result menu transitions. Took some tweaking to get the timing tight and smooth. Adding sound effects helped a lot too!🎧 #gamedev #godot #pixelart #indiegame

Had lots of fun adding detail to the sauces in Keypress Burger, both visually (initial sputter, sauce stream, impact, splat animations on the toppings, dripping) and audio 😁 #gamedev #godot #pixelart #indiegame #juice

🎵 This awesome animation by pixel artist @bitopu.bsky.social instantly inspired me to create a boss-fight-style beat! For the hi-hats, claps, and other percussion, I used firecracker sound effects to match the exploding carrot bombs. Go check out more of his pixel art, it’s super vibey! 🙌 #PixelArt

Note to self - when you make a game with a fire spread mechanic, let players know they can extinguish said fire 🔥😭 All that and more in the short post-mortem I wrote for Before the Ash, my new city builder jam-game! #indiegamedev #godotengine Link in the below 👇

Last week, I took part in the 79th edition of the Godot Wild Jam, creating the music and sound for Before the Ash, a game by the amazing @avivlevy.bsky.social. I dived into the instruments and scales of the Roman Empire, blending them with a bitcrushy electronic sound. Go check out the game!

I created a synth cover of Hollow Knight's beautiful ‘City of Tears’, originally composed @christopherlarkin.bsky.social. This game is one of my all-time favorites, and its music is a big part of why I love it so much💙 #gamemusic #cityoftears #hollowknight #hollowknightfanart #silksong

One early morning, I woke up with this theme in my head. I made a quick (sleepy) recording on my phone and went back to bed. Later, I found it again and decided to make a better recording and a short video. I’m always curious about how and when musical ideas can come up, especially during sleep🌙
