Gamer and (very) amateur game designer via RPG Maker. Current Project: Hearts Aflame (Under Construction)
Pinned
Welcome to #DragonsWithKetchup!

Pretty sure at least three people out of 1,000 will get that joke.

I'll do a better pinned post in the future, but I wanted to get something posted to start. Currently working on a project in RPG Maker MV, #HeartsAflame, so stay tuned for more info!

One of my goals for this weekend is to overhaul my dialogue system

I want to make it more like Morrowinds, with various one off questions you can ask, and a lot more backstory

Opens the doors to deeper characters and world building

I still exist, I swear!

Just haven't had time for game design stuff of late.

Achievements are fun for what they are, but it's rare that I feel compelled to go after 100% of them in any game.

#ChainedEchoes, though... truly a masterpiece. Can't wait to try the expansion. Gonna go for 100% on that one, too.

The undercity isn’t built — it’s stitched together from trash.
Cereal boxes for skyscrapers. Bottle caps for doors.

Welcome to Blood on the Cheese, where the only thing lower than the streets… is your chance of survival.

Ok, I added a subtle outline on land-water boundary, and now it starts to come together? Maybe I need outlines on all major terrain type transitions + the forest layer 🤔

Happy #ScreenshotSaturday!

Here’s a look at what Guilds of Greybrook looked before (in the first screenshot) vs what it looks like now!

Also a bonus close up of Bella, one of members with our upcoming faction alignment card borders ✨

I tried a low-resolution aesthetic with this pixel scene. If you have any suggestions or thoughts, I'm all ears! Feel free to share your thoughts in the comments.

Creating a bunch of little #pixelart buildings in #aseprite. What sort of game could I be making with them? Any suggestion?

Long drives are a great time to do some mental storyboarding and talk out ideas with myself. #HeartsAflame needs a lot of the former, so I'm-a get on that tonight after dinner.

And I might even have a screenshot for #ScreenshotSaturday!

PixelArt sketch for practice. Advice welcome!
Made in beep8 constraints: few colors, low resolution.
