The gyms in #PuzzleTrainerMeadowbrick are guarded by different tasks. Here in Harvista, a rival duo of gym leaders will only let you in if you have certain creatures registered in your Puzzlepedia. #IndieGame #IndieDev

After beating the Gym Challenge, you’ll be able to recruit trainers you’ve already defeated - or challenge them again! As your gym fills up, a small crowd begins to gather, admiring the skill of your Meadowbrick Gym. #PuzzleTrainerMeadowbrick #IndieGame #IndieDev

Before #GameDev, my kids and I imagined our own Pokémon games. Now I get to make those ideas come to life in #PuzzleTrainerMeadowbrick

Just wanted to say thanks to everyone who’s played Little Robo Climber. Knowing that even a small group enjoyed it gave me the motivation to keep improving. ❤️ #IndieGame #IndieDev

We all think about the dark side sometimes. Karl just happens to be challenged by a Level 8 when he inputs ⬆️⬆️⬇️⬇️⬅️➡️⬅️➡️🅱️🅰️. I originally used the input for other things but this'll be more fun for the player. #IndieDev #IndieGame #PuzzleTrainerMeadowbrick

If you lose a match with a trainer you'll get a call from Mom. This'll unlock a cheat device which can help you on your puzzle journey. #PuzzleTrainerMeadowbrick #IndieDev #IndieGame

Wanna play Wiggywubba? Just like irl when kids don't know how to play, they just make up their own rules in #PuzzleTrainerMeadowbrick. Filling out the Puzzlepedia adds more creatures to your deck. Still a work in progress. #ScreenshotSaturday #IndieDev #IndieGame #NintendoSwitch

You'll be able to find a cheat device in #PuzzleTrainerMeadowbrick that'll let you mess around a bit. I had an Action Replay for the Nintendo 64 back in the day, so I wanted to add something like that here. #IndieDev #IndieGame
