Siegfried Croes @siegfriedcroes.bsky.social · 04/09/2026New footage of my (backend) editor for Realms of the Wanderer! Editing multiple maps is working, and with that I was also able to make the Door interaction action work 😁 #gamedev 1130
Siegfried Croes @siegfriedcroes.bsky.social · 31/08/2026In case anyone ever wondered: No, I don't use AI! I find great pride in being able to say I made something all by myself, using AI would make it all pointless. Even when the process of creating can be a struggle at times, I'll always choose to take my time and keep going! Using AI is giving up. 1163
Siegfried Croes @siegfriedcroes.bsky.social · 27/08/2026Here's a first look at the map editor I'm making for my game called "Realms of the Wanderer" 😁 Showing off tile and collision placement on multiple layers, and placing objects to handle layer change so the player can walk on top or behind tile layers depending on the situation 🙂 1123
Siegfried Croes @siegfriedcroes.bsky.social · 18/08/2026Ad / Sponsored post 🎁 Happy 21st anniversary to XPPen! 🥳🎉 Animation made with the XPPen Artist 16 3rd.

Siegfried Croes @siegfriedcroes.bsky.social · 14/08/2026Welcome to the new people following me through Tofu's Pixel Recommendation starter pack! 👋😄 In case you don't know me, I make chiptune animations (= pixel animations accompanied by short songs in Game Boy style). I'm also making a game called Realms of the Wanderer 😁 See Media tab on my profile 😊 050
Siegfried Croes @siegfriedcroes.bsky.social · 11/08/2026It's been a while since I posted here! I mainly worked on a map editor for my game "Realms of the Wanderer" 😁 It's working quite well already, but I want to add the ability to change object properties before I show it off in a video 😌 I can already share this screenshot though 😇 151
Siegfried Croes @siegfriedcroes.bsky.social · 19/07/2026The object cats from my latest chiptune animation are available as stickers/magnets! 😍 Check out my shop for more designs/products based on my most popular animations!

Siegfried Croes @siegfriedcroes.bsky.social · 09/07/2026Just made a system to handle changing map collision and render order of tiles/objects on the fly 😀 My game (Realms of the Wanderer) is starting to look like something 😊 #gamedev 1171
Siegfried Croes @siegfriedcroes.bsky.social · 07/07/2026My girlfriend has to deal with chronic pain daily, which inspired me to make this song 😔 I don't have a magical fix, but I hope my chiptune animations can bring comfort/distraction to those going through difficult times 🫂 #pixelanimation #chiptune 17223
Siegfried Croes @siegfriedcroes.bsky.social · 01/07/2026I've been working on a new game project called "Realms of the Wanderer" these last few weeks 😁 I'm programming it almost from scratch in C++ (using SDL3 for cross-platform compatibility) 🙂 You can read more about it in my latest (free) Patreon post 😊 www.patreon.com/posts/162597... #gamedev 1101

Siegfried Croes @siegfriedcroes.bsky.social · 23/04/2026Earlier this month, I realized I misspelled my own name in the handle/signature of some of my recent chiptune animations 🤦 For those who still struggle a lot with feelings of failure, this cat has a message for you 😸 #pixelanimation #chiptune 68622

Siegfried Croes @siegfriedcroes.bsky.social · 27/02/2026One of the perks of becoming a Pixel Club member (paid membership) on my Patreon is getting earlier access to my chiptunes! 😀🎶 Sometimes, these previews are slightly different from the final chiptunes, as I often still make adjustments while working on the animations 🫢 #chiptune 141
Siegfried Croes @siegfriedcroes.bsky.social · 26/02/2026I was interviewed by a frog who asked me what my dream or goal as an artist is! 🐸🎶 #pixelanimation #chiptune 0204

Extras: BGB (Game Boy emulator) to run LSDj and record the chiptune, and Audacity to trim the recording and tweak the volume. 0111
