Funny. A pixel artist needs money. I offer money for work, want to transfer it right away, and say "There's no rush on the job" ... After that, no response. And now i notice that i'm blocked. LOL Just say "no thank you" next time? 😂 At least i saved money ... #PixelArt #PixelArtist #Commissions

Got a rather "interesting" marketing offer. Not a scam. :p Anyway, meet Christopher "Your Name", the newest resident of Blightshire. He guarantees results. Terms and conditions may mysteriously change. (That’s what I think he looks like.) #gamedev #indiedev #indiegame #pixelart #gameplay #scam

And that’s how easy it is to build a landing zone ... for now. Bulldozers haven't been implemented yet. And the cement dries instantly, too. 😂 #gamedev #indiedev #indiegame #pixelart #gameplay #gameclips

What have I learned from programming so far? Play your own game the way the ultimate gaming nightmare @letsgameitout.tv would... And just like that, it becomes a better indie game. Whoopsie 🤭

Honk if you love ... waiting in traffic Testing the NPCs in my upcoming indie game. I decided to just stand on the crosswalk for a while. Something is still missing though ... ah, yeah ... the police - for a massive fine. Would you pass or keep honking? #CozyGames #WholesomeGames #AdventureGame

Unpacking coming soon. The player seems to be happy and so am I. The pathfinding isn't. 🤣 I need an unstuck function. #gamedev #indiedev #indiegame #pixelart #gameplay

Hank "Hacky" Huffinghton. His parents thought it was funny to call him Hacky. Was it? At least for them. Our lumberjack. If you don't want to order from Flywood. #indiedev #gamedev #pixelart

Game Development as a solo indie dev is like ice skating on grass ... annoying but funny at the same time. (at least i was a bit productive today ^^)

Meet Cole. He runs the village junkyard with decades of experience. Calm and honest, he rarely wastes words. While others see rust and broken machines, Cole sees potential. If he can't repair it, it probably wasn't worth fixing anyway. #indiedev #gamedev #pixelart

I changed the main character's appearance today... I think he looks much better now. I didn't like that "cute anime style." What do you think? #gamedev #indiegames #indiedev #gaming #games

I can plug machines together. Conveyors move boxes. And somehow... nothing exploded. Turns out electricity is easier than designing a main menu. #indiedev #gamedev
