Some context, my car lit up like a Christmas tree on the way to Fredericton for the presentations today. So I went to the event. And then replaced my alternator in @chrissccribs.bsky.social driveway. What a legend for letting me work there and use his tools.

As a solo game dev, you have to wear many hats. Programmer, artist, designer, mechanic?!??!?

Attending the workshop hosted by shred capital (scaffold) and INB at McKenzie college in Moncton. Awesome to see student work, and get some advice from industry experts.

I find it interesting how a super compelling story or design can come out of a silly meme. I am designing an entire zone and culture in my game around a misheard lyric.

Its not completely done yet, however I cant help but share today's iteration.

This took a few iterations - and still needs some polish, but I think it looks cool.

I still want to replace the leaves with a different foreground objects since this is the entrance to the desert temple.

Just finished the first room outside of the Twilight Veil.

I am excited to give the same treatment on some of the other areas in the game so that I can show off the vision for each one.

I have the first 25% of the game's critical pathing designed. With that I started working on the overworld for the game. There are a total of 320 rooms in the overworld alone.

The reward for a productive week of game dev, is spending Friday doing game dev on a side project. Working on equipment system so I can get this guy some clothes.

First test of doing some bloom effects in #TwilightObscura
I need to fiddle with it some more, but I think it's heading in a good direction.

One of my favorite parts of developing a game is when you make a simple mistake like forgetting to divide by 100. And then something hilarious like this is the result

Taking a break from the Christmas theme game today to work on the main project

Revealing the new title for the game. Twilight Obscura. Hopefully I won't have to change it again

The goal this week:
Finish the core loop
Iteration on the combat and user feedback
Get some environmental elements into the game

A big empty grid is BORING

I think every game I work on in the future will have some sort of built in date tracker for release dates and milestones.

Here is a WIP shot of some auto-tiling working for the level editor tool I am developing. Most of the time is being spent on the game itself, but I think this is a cooler thing to show off.

Added everyone's new favorite demon, Akaza, to the cast of my #DemonSlayer pixel characters.

What did you think of the movie?

I haven't posted here in a while, and a lot has happened.

I won best in show at Atlantic XP with my demo for veil of twilight in June.

2 games I worked on with the team at Iron Fox Games were released!

And this is me announcing that I am now working full time as a solo dev!

Haven't updated in a a whole week!

I have been on bizdev all week. Almost done all my paperwork and spreadsheets and can get back to the game making part soon!

Here is a picture of Brimble telling me I'm doing a good job.

Showing off the last couple months of work at #xpatlantic

I was super happy with the response. Only a few bugs showed up.

Once those are fixed, I'll be uploaded the demo free to play on itch.io
