Despite going into game dev, Ya'll might be surprised that I wasn't always going towards gamedev. In fact, it was a pathway towards bio-engineer with a focus on smart medical devices. It's a much longer post, perhaps I will share the details one day. But yeah, no, one thing lead to another, lol.

While I am learning #pixelart, I did want to share some assets I am making for one of my smaller #gamedev projects. Can't really get into it atm since I am trying to decide what the game "is", but spoiler alert, it involves cookies. Here's 6 I made. The goal is to get into triple digits if possible.

Aaron Paul really did a phenomenal job as a VA in Dispatch.
I feel like I am always so hesitant when it comes to celebrities voicing animated or video game roles, because aside from a handful I just feel it never pans out. But for Aaron, idk, I can't imagine Robert Robertson having any other voice

Hitting credits in Cronos: The New Dawn, and damn...What a game! Going to do another run asap to get the plat, but I am so happy with it. Couple pitfalls, and a slog section, but it's fantastic the rest of the way through. Bloober team proving once again they make some damn good hospital levels!

Um... I know I might be preaching to the choir...or it "could" be a hot take.
But, as much as I liked Clair Obscur: Exp 33, it feels very gross to me that it occupies a nomination in both indie game categories, while ALSO occupying a spot in various other categories...
Kind of unfair, imo, TGA2025

Hi #pixelart and #gamedev, I was hoping to get some help today on something. I wanted to know if anyone had some great examples of characters scaled in 32 x 32 pixel size format? I am learning at that scale atm, and I am trying to avoid distracting myself too much seeking out examples. (continued):

I am loving Cronos: The New Dawn so far. Probably a third of the way through the game, and it's just been great. I definitely understand the Dead Space comparisons, but as I have had played both, they are distinctly different in terms of game feel and loop. Enemy variety isn't the best though...

The #pixelart skeleton stick man method is coming together.
Testing out drawing muscles in 32 x 32 pixel art size. It's tough, but not bad! Arms don't provide a lot of real estate when you are trying to make a really large, wide torso. Gonna block it out and see what I can do with the form.

Hi #pixelart and #gamedev ! Last time, I was trying out the silhouette method of pixel art for building characters. I am pivoting from that to try another method that is more akin to what I am more comfortable with (building from a skeleton). Shoutout to Brandon James Greer's video on the topic!

Wanting to make a boss in a souls like that is named:
"Humphrey, Lover of Women" and if you come at them with a lady, they just off themselves immediately by running full sprint away and off the battle arena.
Come at Humphrey with anyone else and like, 11/10 difficulty, no notes.

I had a short story I was writing years ago, got about 30 pages in. It had to do with what if a utopia was ruled by a Kakistocracy. It was meant to be a dark comedy, very on the nose. I ended up trashing it because reality was usurping my fiction.
Reality effectively rendered my story obsolete, lol

I'm learning a LOT about today's modern gamer thanks to Dispatch.
The amount of leeway Invisigirl gets is wiiild. That's not even a spoiler, but it's so dramatically polling in her favor, at all times.
It's kind of reminding me of how much people leaned hard towards Chloe in Life is Strange.
