I make games sometimes. Sometimes I finish them as well.

Sometimes the games even end up on here: https://campfire-games.itch.io/

If you want to check out the game I've been working on for last week, it's live now. Hexbound is a simple puzzle match game on a hexagon grid.

Got a full combat system going with the ability to easily create any action I want for the player and the enemies. Made it a little nicer looking as well.

Been working on a new prototype for a card game. So far, I just have the basics, but it's already feeling fun to use.

I've been working on a new mobile tic tac toe game recently to learn the ropes of publishing a mobile game. It's fairly simple but its also taught me a lot.

I accidentally made a responsive hockey puck. At least the animation seems to work.

I've added the basic movement to the little mushroom along with his melee attack. I forgot to add a roll cooldown indicator so I guess that's next before I work on the basic enemies.

Started working on a new guy, a funguy. Animation is kinda hard, but I'm happy with all the animations I made for him.

If you're wondering why I made this eyesore, so am I.

I got the UI and sound effects added to my game scene. It's really starting to feel like a complete game.

I got the title screen for my game setup. I also finally decided on a name for this project and found the perfect music for it.

After many, many hunts for bugs, I've got the tiles matching their sets and clearing themselves from the board.

I've dumped my tiles into the sea. Placing game tiles gets them to come back up for a breath.

I've added a tile queue and a timer. Now I can crank it and watch as the tiles fly into place for me.

Started working on a new puzzle game project. I got a little carried away with adding the water. So far I have it randomly placing tiles, but next up is creating a queue for them.
