Hey, Bluesky! It's been a while! So let me give you an update on our development because we have been working super hard on The Market at Mistyport since I last posted!
Short story: things are taking longer than we expected. But such is game development. #pixelart #gamedev #indiegamedev #🎮#cozy 1/

Apologies for not posting in a couple days! We’re plowing forward but who knew game dev was a lot of work?! 😉 Here’s another section of our world, almost finalized. What do you think? #indiegamedev #pixelart #indiegame #indiedev #🎮

New #indiegamedev here: when it comes to balancing your game—think stats, buffs, debuffs, etc— do you just blindly choose values to start off and then playtest and tweak until perfect? #indiegame #indiegames

Happy Wednesday :-)
We reached an important milestone today: all components for our build are in a completed prototype phase!
Now, we begin playtesting, bug testing, and importing final art assets as we work towards our demo! #indiegamedev #indiegame #indiedev #pixelart #🎮

What does everybody look for in their romanceable characters? Backstory? Humor? Looks? Relatability?
Been working overtime this weekend on all new ways to build relationships with our NPCs. It’s suuuper exciting right now #indiegamedev #indiegame #indiedev #pixelart #🎮

Did someone say they wanted fishing in The Market at Mistyport??? Well I’ll just drop this right here for you ☺️
But at Mistyport, there’s a twist with how we fish. Can you guess what it is?

Part of our art design on Mistyport is to make everything feel lived in. Weeds. Moss. Mess. So much texture and variety... #pixelart #gamewriting #gamedesign #indiegame #indiedev

At the heart of all cozy life sims is the longing to find community, to be accepted, to not run away from our differences but to celebrate them. To live simply, peacefully, and lovingly. We can do this fam ❤️ #indiedev #pixelart #indiegame #🎮

Music and sound design is one of the most underrated components to a great cozy game in my opinion, so I wanted give a sneak peek at what our OST is shaping up to be. Here’s a first sketch of our Tender Theme, composed and performed by Ethan Richey ☺️ #indiedev #🎮 #indiegame

Being an #indiedev with a small #indiestudio means that some of your team will come and go. Part of the challenge is being cohesive around art style and vision when combining assets and code. Thankfully I’m proud of all my artists who have contributed to our project! #🎮 #pixelart #indiegame

🚨VERY MUCH WORK IN PROGRESS!!🚨
There are absolutely placeholder assets here; however, I was happy with what my artist and I collaborated on today, so I thought I'd share :)
