It's been a while since I got to work on my game, but today I got to knock out a rough implementation of vertical scrolling! Here you can see platform snapping to an offset and different focus points for when you're in the air versus on the ground.

It's #ScreenShotSaturday, and I no longer use pngs for sprites!
I now get all pixel information directly from aseprite files, saving me export time and less manual definitions all around :)

This #ScreenShotSaturday includes more than just my game running! This week, the moving platforms now move along a fixed path! I thought it'd be fun to see a bit more of the dev process, so here you can see the platform being placed via Tiled, my map editor of choice.

Today's the first #ScreenshotSaturday that I'm on time for! This week I implemented moving platforms. Thanks to @maddymakesgames.com for her amazing "Celeste & TowerFall Physics" article! The logic in my GBA game is inspired by the Solids and Actors approach.

Being willing to talk on the phone effectively amounts to a super power in this day and age. I swear, for the vast majority of restaurants you can give them a call, check their availability, and book a reservation faster than whatever third party booking system can load their single-page web app.

Just listened to the most recent episode of @plante.bsky.social’s Post Games, and listening to @writnelson.bsky.social talk about the state of the industry was such a treat. Post Games is shaping up to be one of my favorite podcasts. Check it out if you haven’t yet!

Once again I continue my tradition of being late to #ScreenshotSaturday. This weekend I got multiple backgrounds working in my GBA game. I got some extra inspiration by buying some of @nauris.bsky.social's pixel art assets in their summer sale! Much better than my dev art! #GameDev

PSA for Clair Obscur players: be careful on the world map! I was able to get stuck on the map. I went to camp and thought that leaving camp would spawn me in area I could walk again, but nope, still stuck. I had to go 3 saves back before I was unstuck again.

I was picking away at "Lumiére" melody from Clair Obscur on the piano this morning, and realized that it's the classic Pokemon "Road to Viridian City - From Pallet Town" melody, but walking down instead of up. For a game that isn't ashamed of its influences, I have to wonder if it's on purpose.

Adopting the Blue Prince model of only being able to walk into a certain number of rooms per day and once I’ve hit my limit I get to go straight to bed.

I’m curious, for those who have found Room 46, what day did you first find it on? For me, it was Day 23.

Me: “I don’t really see the need for taking screenshots to have a dedicated button on controllers.”
Also me, after starting Blue Prince: *aggressively screenshotting every single piece of paper*

Colors for GBA games are hard. All these photos are showing the same scene rendered. The colors that emulators and FPGA devices display by default are dramatically more luminance, even when filters are applied to make it look more like the original device.

It's no longer #screenshotsaturday, but better late than never, right?
I Spent the weekend learning Natu's new "Scenes" and "Systems" concepts. Here you can see a new version of one of Natu's examples leveraging the functionality. Two scenes instead of the original one!
