It's finally time to announce the game I've been working on! Wundertrench is an isometric tactical RPG with extraction/roguelike elements, set in a collapsing militaristic empire overrun by monstrosities of flesh and steel. Wishlist now! store.steampowered.com/app/4009500/...

It's been a bit, but I wanted to share progress on the Ostvengr Roguelike project. There's still a lot of polishing to be done, but it's pretty neat to see everything come together in-game. Looking at completing a demo in a few months.

Going to be posting the BR Thorn skill animations I worked on over the next week or so. She has quite a few animations for her stance change, so I'll just be posting one skill at a time without much context. Artwork by bsky.app/profile/sogg... Skill 1: Hearken

Going to make an effort to post more this year. Need to externalize progress for both BR and my game more.

I've been working on a dieselpunk roguelike game that's essentially Darkest Dungeon meets Into the Breach. Here are some mockups from development. There's a long road ahead before they're fully actualized.

The Dredge: Its pilot is a veteran combatant, and her machine is a blood-drenched marvel. It can be called in during combat and will remain in active use even after combat ends. However, this mechanical marvel has a tendency to overheat and needs time to cool.

Not sure how active I'm going to be here, depends on how much I end up engaging with the platform. Already impressed though, there's some features here like lists that are super convenient, and, in general, there seems to be less negativity and toxicity.

The Ripperkin: a keen follower of the legendary Ivory Matron, whose knowledge and prowess over Kvarotz machinery was passed down to those who could ride these metal man-eaters.
