🎉Ropuka's Idle Island is out 🎉

Together with extremely talented @littlechmura.bsky.social we've made an idle game that sits on your screen like a small, playable sticker. Watch little frog tend to his garden (and take frequent naps) while you work or relax! 🐸

Releasing my first small project on Steam tomorrow, it was a crazy ride to get it done on time, but I'm happy we've stuck with the initial deadline. I hope people will enjoy our little playable sticker 🐸 store.steampowered.com/app/3416070/...

This little buddy has been keeping me company while I work on his 'main' game

Work on the main frog game is going well, but I got a bit distracted by a small, Ropuka-related side game...

UI with sounds is better than UI without sounds

For the past 2 days, I've been working on some UIs, as always it's a bit of a pain to support different input methods and avoid all the edge-case bugs, but it's also extremely satisfying and makes your game feel more like a game

The player character from my indie game.

Figured out that the first instinct everyone will have playing as a frog is to jump into the water, so I've added swimming to Ropuka today. Placeholder animation but hey, isn't swimming just underwater flying anyway?

Barely started posting and already matched my first 'x followers' post from the old site 😅

Sooner or later every game needs a UI, always pain in the ass to implement, but at least it starts to feel like a real video game now

Need an excuse to show off that in Ropuka the grass is always growing, what can a lonely, small frog do against the forces of nature?

Scythe from last month with proper model and texture, new grass variant.

Added some visual fluff, new shears texture, tweaked grass particle colors; all small, almost insignificant stuff, but it builds over time and makes the game look better

Played with some 'fake' stencil lights today, had to double fake it for the grass since all the foliage is unlit.

Got some custom tools for authoring my grass up and running today, making new levels should be much faster now.

Started working on a new tool for Ropuka, turns out adding a two-handed one is more complicated than I thought, but the first draft is already pretty fun to use.
