I've been building a Twitch extension that turns your chat into persistent RPG characters who level up, get loot, and join battle live on stream I'm getting close to broader testing and I'm looking for streamers interested in trying it out. If that sounds like something you'd enjoy, let me know! 💙

Spent the better part of the day trying to hunt down why my system wasnt pulling weapons actions from the equipped weapon. Turns out it was, I was just equipping the sword to the feet slot and calling to the main hand. Oops

Finally got all the cave area's art done and in engine. It really is crunch time, got 3 days to go and still got most of the audio to finish. But I think I got this! I'm so close! #pixelart #werewolf #cave #platformer

I made the level select screen map today! I got to get a couple more things working in engine, but I'm liking how the art turned out.
Spooky Dark silloutted trees and buildings in front of a dark blue dithered gradient with a large cave with a mouth like entrance and cat like glowing yellow and orange eyes sits below a bright glowing moon. Pixel art concept for a level select screen.

Reft @reftworks.bsky.social · 08/05/2026
I added a button in Howleste that serves no gameplay purpose whatsoever. It exists purely so you can howl. It is, objectively, the best feature. #pixelart #2Dplatformer #werewolf

Moments like tonight are why I love streaming, got to meet a dev for one of my favorite games, Voices of the Void, I hope one day I can be that dev in someone else's stream.

scary moment this morning, Unity Hub was just deleted off my pc. The folder was there, but no files inside. Luckily my project files were untouched, an even so I back them up quite a lot. Still odd to see it disappear like that. No trace of it being quarantined either. confusion was super effective*

threw in silhouette anims to regression test the movement 👀 helps strip it down and see if the timing actually holds up lowkey starting to feel good #gamedev #gamejam #werewolf #platformer #unity

Getting close to finishing up all the system for this lil game jam game! will post some footage once I have some of the player animations done and working! really liking how this color palette turned out! #gamejam #pixelart #werewolf
A pixel art scene of a werewolf character standing on a stone platform in a graveyard at night. A large glowing full moon fills the sky behind broken brick walls, with silhouettes of leafless trees and crosses in the background. A small tombstone marked “RIP” sits to the left, and a glowing green orb hovers to the right. The color palette is moody with purples, blues, and muted earth tones, giving a dark but stylized atmosphere.

Spent a good part of the day tuning background palettes for cogforged. A small tweak, but it reading much better.
Sample tilemap for cave area in cogforged legacy. Warm browns for the foreground stone palettes with cooler purple tines for roots.

Far background has gotten compressed value ranges to help readability.

Some parts of the city feel louder than they should, even when nothing is happening — cluttered with the remnants of things that were never fully finished or fully discarded.

Pixel study using the Fated Eight palette by Digi. Practicing restraint and atmosphere. Still undecided on a title—this one feels more like a moment than a place. #pixelart

There are many ways the townfolk have learned to get around Trevithford. The city didn’t fall apart — it just stopped keeping every path open, and people adapted

The test build has been going well so far, and the feedback has been incredibly helpful. If anyone’s interested in testing and sharing thoughts, I’m always happy to hear more: reftworks.itch.io/cogforgedleg... #gamedev
