Testing a procedural walking animation. Stairs are difficult. Small steps are no problem, but ramps are easier. :D #gamedev #indiegame #solodev #pixelart #metroidvania

We're launching Early Access on November 6th because apparently deadlines exist. Is it done? No. Are we shipping it? Yes. There’s an open world now. Don’t ask how. Wishlist it. Or don’t. Chapter One launches either way. #jittergame

I can now adjust the tearing of the nets in great detail. Everything from untearable to easily torn is possible. #gamedev #indiegame

Initial tests with nets and collisions. It's running quite well; even screen-filling nets achieve 1.6ms on the Steamdeck. The core is written in C++. Next step: tear it apart and climb on it. #gamedev #solodev #indiegame #godot #metroidvania #pixelart

Mazed @rakanu.bsky.social · 04/09/2026
First experiments with my new fake lights. GPU time is valuable, therefore everything is rendered in one pass and baked with the background tilemap. It's just a test, so this looks a bit rushed. #gamedev #metroidvania #indiegame #pixelart #solodev

Godot itself already offers a lot of convenience, and these add-ons make things even easier. I'm sure you'll quickly achieve great results.

Every #Metroidvania should have an energy system.⚡ Game-wide energy network system implemented. It also supports feeds. I think this will allow for the implementation of many nice puzzle situations in the game. #gamedev #indiegame

Into the darkness. .. Less is more, I know. But as a beginner, I still lack a feel for the right amount. But very slowly, sketch by sketch, I am getting closer to the desired gloom. ⚫ #pixelart #metroidvania #indiegame #solodev #videogame #gamedev

I continue to experiment and draw small sketches like this one. I'm finding myself increasingly drawn to a more minimalist and darker style. Let's see where this leads. #pixelart #Metroidvania #solodev #indiegame #gamedev #aseprite
