Since there's a big influx of new bsky users I should probably re-introduce my game!

This is my #indierpg inspired by PS2 classics and some modern stuff too. It has a focus on characters with unique functions. I am making it in the #godotengine. Hope you think it's neat!

It’s kinda funny that everyone seems to think my game is heavily Persona inspired when in reality very little is consciously referencing it. The battle portraits come from P3/4 but that’s kinda it.

(I know it’s meant as a positive thing though!)

Hey wait instead of skeet spam I should put stuff like this on that website I currently don’t have.

Found some old gifs of my game that I figured I'd share in case I ever loose them.

This is the first prototype I made in Godot, dated 22/12/2023.

Originally the game was supposed to have sprites in 3D like Breath of Fire 3 but I realized pretty quick I wasn't good enough at drawing them.

Okay I know my battle system architecture is sound cause I just implemented a boss with funky mechanics and it only took a couple of very chill hours to throw together

Looks like crap because I’ve done none of the graphics for it yet but it all WORKS which is the main thing

My game Dash Dot Die is a Morse-code based horror puzzle game. A great way to learn something new while being spooked!

Wishlist the game on Steam to get notified for the upcoming demo and full release!

Went camping over the weekend with some friends. Nice chance to recharge after the yearly holiday chaos.

Okay, done with this scene now. Next it goes into Godot and I will try to imitate retro vertex lighting. Happy holidays!

a liiiittle update. Been playing with the lighting but I don't really know what I'm doing, never really poked around in game engines before this so it's trial and error! I'm using the Godot engine which I'm enjoying a lot.

This one got turned into my profile picture(For now at least). I made it after listening to a bunch of Nikita Kryukov's music, he made Milk Inside a bag of Milk.

I wanted to make something using the colour palettes he tends to use, so I came up with this ( ´ ꒳ ` )
