Last time I'll share this trailer before #Blanky releases.

A surreal feeling for sure.

Hope you all enjoy the games as much as we enjoyed making it.

Thank you all for your support so far.

Here's the trailer for #Blanky

A young boy named Jacob journeys through a nightmarish world full of horrors.

With his trusty blanket "Blanky" by his side, Jacob must find a courage he never knew he had to face his biggest fear.

Can you spot Jacob?

Looks like he has too MUSHROOM to hide in. (I'm sorry)

5 more days until #Blanky releases

If you can forgive the terrible pun you can

✨PIXEL ART COMMISSIONS✨
I'm opening up commissions for the first time in years to pay for medical costs! I can add animation but prices depend on complexity and number of frames (prices in USD)
I've also got bigger sizes below

5 Slots open

This was the moment #Blanky started to feel real, trying out animations for the first time in #Asemulator for #Aseprite.

Looking back on this and seeing where we're at now really does bring back what an amazing journey #GameDev can be. From a thought to an entire game.

Nailing this abilities combo during early playtesting for the first time was amazing.

Now playtesting has become a speed running challenge against myself.
