Progress on my roguelike. Still working on the levels. This week I finished the dressing of the "Horizontal Rooms". It was harder than the previous due the curve shape of the walls, but it was easier to texture than the previous room. #screenshotSaturday #gamedev #indiegame
A cylindrical stone platform.A wall with four prison cells with bars.An L-shape room.
It has two height levels.An L-shape room. It has a dark pit in the middle.

We have been cooking up an indie video game project that is 100% drawn by hand with traditional frame by frame animation. The early tests are looking far better than anything I imagined and I can't wait to share more.
