Finished drawing Jeneral Jorge! Kinda like the Ark drawing I have like a bullet list of things I want to change or do better at / learn, but it was still cool to do ^^

I'll say it again: Reviews are the best way you can help a game you love (besides telling everyone you know about it!). If you like/love a game, pop a review on their Steam page. It makes the devs day, provides feedback, enhances the search algorithm and tells new players what to look out for.

pondering about what types of video games people like to play while framing it underneath a nature vs nurture light is an interesting avenue of thought i've gone down recently

hello random influx of followers, i hope you love Jank Video Games

game that's currently my main project is like a love letter to amateur game design. had lots of people playtest it and the parts that they enjoy/dislike the most seem to be consistently different between individuals. very interested in seeing how a full release will pan out

Mr. Burglar @shoestealin.bsky.social · 12/06/2026

rpg maker would be like 100000% easier to work with if they actually gave an easy UI editor. that's my biggest gripe with it i think. awd suffers so much from that

Mr. Burglar @shoestealin.bsky.social · 25/05/2026

just stumbled on an unfinished awd world spin-off about cleaning and who knows maybe i'll do something with it as a smaller release

Mr. Burglar @shoestealin.bsky.social · 25/05/2026

project firmament new crosshair rings shows health, ammo, and other resources so you can always keep track of them very helpful for visually timing shots around corners the various layers can be disabled to show more or less of them if it's too much (this is the most complex version)

Mr. Burglar @shoestealin.bsky.social · 25/05/2026

i have to make a new trailer for project firmament. i hate it here

010

Mr. Burglar @shoestealin.bsky.social · 21/05/2026

project firmament was soooo comically close to being finished when i stepped away from it. after some crazy test session crunching in the past week, i'm confident on next month release. updating the steam/itch pages on the next major hurdle

040

Mr. Burglar @shoestealin.bsky.social · 14/05/2026

shoe stealin studios update: -been lead developer of a colossal game for the last 6 months: taken up like 99% of gamedev time - may eventually release on steam or advert here but unsure -project firmament ACTUALLY releasing sometime this year because i want one more big game under my belt

151

Mr. Burglar @shoestealin.bsky.social · 21/01/2026

project firmament currently on hold life is busy with other things want it still released sometime this year awd 1.6 ost will also have to wait thanks for supporting my games <3

Mr. Burglar @shoestealin.bsky.social · 13/11/2025

small update on everything shoe stealin' related for the 2 fans: -awd 1.6.3/all of 1.6+dlc's music available before year end? -project firmament pushed Q1 2026. last major mission finished today. seems realistic -may venture into shorter games/other media forms after PF because i love creating

oh my gosh. is that Slime Queen from the niche indie jrpg roguelike Ark's Wonder Dungeon (Update 1.6 and Evil Empress DLC coming October 24th)!?!?!? i'm your biggest fan

could've learned plumbing for a stable career but instead i learned rpg maker. can i load from a previous save

Ark's Wonder Dungeon's Evil Empress DLC and Update 1.6 launched! Feel like it improved some common pitfalls and added a decent amount of content. Unsure if I'll update it again beyond bug fixes, but some of the backend stuff was optimized, so... we'll see?

0103

Mr. Burglar @shoestealin.bsky.social · 15/10/2025

had an AWD dream where there was an update before 1.6 that added some sort of dark gothic church. very similar to a certain other RPG's church area because a lot of its platforms were elevated. no other details besides basic design remembered

Hello! If anybody that sees this is a small streamer/youtuber and likes indie JRPGs and roguelikes, I'm willing to hand out some keys for Ark's Wonder Dungeon when the big update drops. DM me if interested!

getting way too involved in previously mentioned prototype. damn it

030

Mr. Burglar @shoestealin.bsky.social · 01/09/2025

currently screwing around with a new RPGM game prototype that bares some similarities to AWD (although a bit more rpgm-esque). no clue if it'll get anywhere in the long run but rn its loop is leaning way more towards resource management and risk negating than AWD's fairly rng absent power fantasy

NEW PROJECT FIRMAMENT DEMO DROPPED TODAY ON THE ITCH PAGE!!! V0.4 -> V0.10.3!!! Some features limited but should still be very full of content.

031

Mr. Burglar @shoestealin.bsky.social · 11/08/2025

project firmament 0.10 beta has been published to playtesters. was supposed to get it done last month but couldn't. plan is to release a public Super Demo with all of the indev's QoL changes once playtest gets any wrinkles ironed out. imo it's way way more impressive than the old 0.4 demo

030

Mr. Burglar @shoestealin.bsky.social · 01/08/2025

just wrote "general jeorge" and it felt horribly wrong

030

Mr. Burglar @shoestealin.bsky.social · 15/07/2025

likely going to upload a smaller scale but much polished project firmament demo build because the game's QoL has changed significantly since its last itch build

020

Mr. Burglar @shoestealin.bsky.social · 14/07/2025

haven't felt well for the past week or two but hoping that i can make some project firmament progress and show it off soon

Mr. Burglar @shoestealin.bsky.social · 13/06/2025

steam store page for project firmament should be up in a few days, updated the itch page with all new bells and whistles too. prerelease trailer yip yip hoorah

020

Mr. Burglar @shoestealin.bsky.social · 01/06/2025

think almost all of the balancing is done for project firmament behind the scenes. might be time to start mass producing levels and figuring out how soon the hunk of junk can release
