Updated a vista point with sun rays, fresh lighting effects, more background life, and tweaked color grading. Going for that quiet forest vibe where synthwave meets nature.

Reworking the garden biome with some neon lighting and new effects. Trying to push it toward that synthwave sci-fi feel without overdoing it.

Updated the hub area in my game with new visuals, a flickering hologram, drone movement, and a small interactive detail for the curious. It's finally starting to feel like something important happens here.

Been testing parallax on ambient particles using an orthographic camera. In this scene, the closer butterflies shift more and appear larger to create a stronger sense of depth.

I've set up this shiny, weirdly intimidating tower in the middle of a vista I've been working on. Added some lighting around the edges to give it a more glowing, mysterious vibe.

Here's an enemy destruction effect I've been working on. Went for something neon, punchy, and bright enough to look like a small fireworks finale.

Been working on a paint splash effect that appears when you get a reward. Wanted it to be colorful, satisfying, and to make a literal "splashy" entrance.

Added a location node you can encounter during a mission. It's a quiet forest area with an old data well at the center, designed to feel abandoned but still holding something valuable.

Slowly improving the effects in my game. I recently updated this hit impact visual by replacing a flat sprite with a particle-based effect. It's not a huge overhaul, but these bits of polish add up over time.

Showing off a new environmental visual effect: a neon glowing border that pulses with music and sound! It makes the level feel more alive during combat and definitely adds some color to the chaos.

Was tinkering with a card skill that blasts a fireball, but then thought... what if YOU were the fireball? Now you can yeet yourself into enemies like a flaming human torpedo. 🔥

Been tuning up the environment. Added more ambient particles, extra props, and started hand-drawing more things into the background. Here's a quick look at a location node you can explore (and maybe get a little lost in).

Testing out leaf and wind particles for better ambience. Went for a Wind Waker inspired wind effect for a calm, subtle vibe. 💨

Been working on special VFXs for rare skill cards that show up during missions! They're a high roll when they appear, so I've been tuning lighting, sound, and slow-mo to make using them feel like a proper reward.

Made some UI improvements for when my character shifts from action to card mode! The goal was to create the feeling of a new scene being painted in, with a stronger visual impact and clearer cues that show you are accessing a deck of skills.

Just added a vacuum robot to my game, because why not?
Next step: slap on some lasers and call it a boss fight.

Planned a simple backdrop but got distracted chasing awe over subtlety. Probably spent way more time painting and coding it than I should have, but still worth it!

Fun fact: Comets are mostly ice and dust, basically dirty snowballs flying through space. In my game, they're also a Skill card you can drop on enemy machines! Turns out dirty snowballs hit really hard when falling from orbit.

Added some visual flair to my game's dodge system! Time it right and you trigger a "Perfect Dodge" with a short dramatic, cinematic. Still can't use it to dodge laundry, unfortunately. 🧺

My game's character is enjoying this totally real and genuine sun ☀️! You can tell it’s real because it has a smiley face and a soft holographic shimmer. I’m going outside to stare at it too. It always smiles at me. I think we're getting closer 🙃
