Played for about an hour and a half last night, this game is pretty edgy and epic as well haha so I decided to equip a shovel and a funny hat. Gripping my simple shovel during the Arther scene lowkey helped me not get scared 😅 I really like the dash mechanic, excited to play more! #taintedgrail

Beat the game last night, truly a 10/10 game. Though I wish it wouldn’t make me feel bad for wanting to replay it haha I just want to do another pacificist route is that so wrong???

Papyrus is my fav character in the if you couldn’t tell

I’m finally playing #undertale and it’s made me laugh more than any game I’ve played in the last 5 years. What a gem, I just fought Mettaton, so I think I’m close to finishing. After listening to the soundtrack for years I’m so happy to put the music into context haha

The Messenger from Sabotage Studios. Made me fall in love with gaming again.

This year seems to be the year of #JRPGs for me. After beating #seaofstars I’m now playing #finalfantasyvii for the first time! Absolutely loving it :) If only I had the hardware to handle #expedition33 haha maybe in a couple years.

(Spoiler-free)Made it to the “ending” of Sea of Stars. What a fun ride! Really made me feel like I did growing up watching OG Dragonball. The Moonerang is GOATED. Now onto those additional quests to achieve the “true” ending! (AND THEN the DLC!!!)

Finally beat Shovel Knight a few weeks ago and very much enjoyed it! I feel this game will be even more fun on a replay. Maybe later this year. The OST is goated.

Weekly Animation Update #5: wasn’t able to set aside time to animate. Going to skip a running animation for shovel knight and just have him use the phase locket to move large distances. That should save time once i get back on it.

Below is unrelated but i drew some #pixelart in #pico8

Currently playing #seaofstars and i think this has to be my fav character design so far. He’s like a chill, wise, blue Davy Jones wizard, and his vibe fills me with joy and nostalgia somehow 🥹

Weekly Animation Update #4: I was out of town most of last week so I didn’t get to make anything. This Friday I’m hoping to work a little. Here is a clip of me using Stop Motion Helper to load in the ragdolls. Without this tool this project wouldn’t be possible.

Weekly Animation Update #3: here is a compilation of animation tests from the past few weeks. Def some random things in there but I felt like sharing it all haha

Now that the pre-work is done, im a little intimidated to start. But slow and steady wins the race :)

an early birthday present for me 🥹 #pico8

I’ve always wanted to learn to code and this seems like the perfect entry level tool. Plus all the games I’ve played made using PICO-8 have been so fun and charming! One day I hope to make one myself 👾

Weekly Animation Update #2:

Last week I was able to finish a lot of animation tests! I also ran a poll on tumblr asking folks who should win, seems IndieCross will be victorious in this battle! Feeling a little out of my depth, but I want to keep at it, slow and steady.

Weekly Animation Update #1: I’ve decided to make a short, intense fight sequence between Indie Cross and Smash Bros characters! My plan is to use May for animation tests/storyboarding, June & July to animate, August to edit, then post in September.

I had a little $20 “5000-Games-in-One” system growing up and I absolutely loved 1941, even though I was horrible at it I was obsessed with WW2. I also remember loving Dig Dug and the original Super Mario Bros.

The goodie bag looks sweet!

I’m playing Sea of Stars right now and it has some amazing campfire scenes!

On a side note, I feel some video essay YouTuber could easily make a 4 hour retrospective on this topic 🤣
