This month, I played a bunch of indie games with odd and dreamlike worlds! @karbonicc.bsky.social, @themidnighttoken.bsky.social, @brycebucher.bsky.social, @kernelfusion.bsky.social, and @lucyblocks.com helped me lose parts of my sanity I didn't know existed. I’m glad they did. #gaming #gamingsky

walking super slow on the planet levels is NOT intentional, there is a problem with different screen resolutions causing different speeds. Trying to fix it now <3

Thank you so much! It is definitely psychological existentialism, but not horror :( at least for me it isn't. Well ok, it isn't MEANT to be but I guess it can definitely be unsettling

Thank you so much! And noooo I didn't see this! I was on the road during the whole next fest so far D: Thank you I will do this!

happy new year. inspiration vs in game art. I spelled back wrong. It took me so long to realize (my 9 year old pointed it out) that I decided to publicly post my shame anyway #gamedev #indiedev #pixelart #indiegame #screenshotsaturday #screenshotsunday #art #digitalart #surreal

Early pixel sketch of Kokee's apartment. Throughout Woodrot I really played a lot with perspective and how to represent these living areas in unique ways #gamedev #indiegame #solodev

The very first sketch of Oswald. I just started drawing a face, didn't realize he'd be old until he was on paper and just went with it. Typically I like to work with the first ideas #art #indiegame #gamedev

You ever wake up in the middle of the night stumbling through the hall trying to find the bathroom? Half dreaming and half relying on muscle memory to keep you upright? #indiegame #solodev #pixelart #animation

The Midnight Token @themidnighttoken.bsky.social · 05/06/2025

I am! Currently working on the trailer. Here's the poster for the game

A black and white pixel art poster of an upcoming video game called Woodrot. It is of an older man with a house on his head and the game title in large letters through the middle

This is Oswald, the maintenance man. There are two things every maintenance man must obey. 1. The building is always right 2. By god, you will maintain. #indiegame #gamedev #pixelart

My name is Johnny Clyde. I’m a reclusive artist who reluctantly taught myself a bunch of skills cause I was too shy to ask professionals and now I’m here! #solodev #gamedev

The Midnight Token @themidnighttoken.bsky.social · 03/06/2025

You always kept to yourself but now the whole apartment building is floating in the middle of the ocean. No warning, no flood, and presumably no act of God. Woodrot is a surreal adventure game where you find yourself entwined in the strange lives of your neighbors. #indiegame #solodev

I actually started with the same technique because I find drawing on a computer a bit awkward still. Thought I was cheating until I found this out!

The Midnight Token @themidnighttoken.bsky.social · 11/02/2025

Did you know pixel backgrounds from old pc games were often just computer scanned traditional paintings? After importing, they were then scaled and color limited. It's really interesting how limitations became a style that is now emulated on purpose #pixelart #gamedev

Concept art from the video game Secret of Monkey Island from 1990. It's a watercolor painting in shades of brown, yellow and golden of buildings in the background and in the front, there are some skulls stuck on poles

A screenshot from the video game Secret of Monkey Island from 1990. It shows the same building and skulls on poles but this time it is very compressed and in a pixel art style. We now also have items in the foreground like the playable character and a wooden crate. The UI is also seen in the bottom of the screen

Sometimes all the inspiration you need is right outside the window

The Midnight Token @themidnighttoken.bsky.social · 03/02/2025

I still think it needs another pass, but I always find it fascinating what a bit of extra effort can do #pixelart

It's always important to make sure your pixel animation is on beat! #pixelart
