I've been getting some weird spikes in views on itch lately. Downloads and browser plays don't have the same spikes, so I'm assuming it's bots or something. Anyone else having similar weird statistics on itch? #IndieGame #IndieDev #itch

Screenshot of statistics from itho.io. Views sometimes have some high spikes, but not browser plays and downloads.

The second bedroom in the Pixel Room Creator 1.1 update. Probably belongs to a teenager interested in manga and sports … the symbols on the kanji scroll are completely made up - I hope they don't mean anything disturbing in any language… 😬 #IndieGame #IndieDev #PixelArt #ドット絵 #Isometric

Another template room in the Pixel Room Creator 1.1 update. I made assets so you can now build bathrooms ... the chickens are supposed to be rubber ducks, but they somehow ended up looking more like chickens… 🫠 #IndieGame #IndieDev #PixelArt #ドット絵 #Isometric

I added a second living room to the Pixel Room Creator 1.1 update. I made some minor animations like flickering candles and blinking eyes, but no fire … I'm not good enough at animation yet, but one day there will be a fire in the fireplace… #IndieGame #IndieDev #PixelArt #ドット絵 #Isometric

Booom!🎉 Pixel Room Creator 1.1 is now launched on itch. I'm gonna make a new trailer for the game later this week, but for now … I'm just gonna sit down and relax for a bit, because these last couple of weeks have been a bit hectic… 😓 #IndieGame #IndieDev #PixelArt #ドット絵 #Isometric

Here is one of the template rooms that will be in Pixel Room Creator 1.1. I'm launching the update next week and sitting here fiddling with the game page on itch. There's gonna be a demo and a full game version. Question is, should the demo have its own game page? #IndieGame #IndieDev #PixelArt

I didn't paint any eggs this week. Instead, I brainstormed some new robot parts for Pixel Robot Creator and decorated some of them with patterns. I'll continue working on these and making more assets later this year. #IndieGame #IndieDev #PixelArt

Rewrote the code for the Paint Bucket Tool in the Pixel Room Creator 1.1 update. Instead of clicking on every object you want to paint, just hold down the left mouse button and move the cursor. Every object that is touched by the paint bucket cursor will be painted. #IndieGame #IndieDev #PixelArt

Sorry, no pixel art object study this weekend. I've been busy coding a game tool. Will hopefully have a working prototype in a month or so...

Played Pokémon Silver on good ol' Game Boy Color when I was a kid. Didn't understand a word English, but still managed to beat all the gym leaders. Although, I didn't find Lugia until I replayed the game as an adult... #pixelart #ドット絵 #isometric #gameboy #Pokémon
