Back when I first pixelated Bun's celebration pose, I inexplicably made my canvas size ~30px shorter than the other poses and never got around to fixing it. Until now! I also redrew her hands so they look almost normal. #artilleroyalty #gamedev #playdate #pixelart #1bit #indiegame #indiedev #godot

ArtilleRoyalty DX will feature cutting-edge Cust-Bun-Ization technology to customize your Bun! #artilleroyalty #gamedev #playdate #pixelart #1bit #indiegame #indiedev #godot

The assets are getting more color getting added every day! The palette is sitting at 14 colors. So I've still got 2 more colors I can add to stay within the self-imposed 4-bit limitation. #artilleroyalty #gamedev #playdate #pixelart #1bit #indiegame #indiedev #godot

I had a hard time choosing the colors for each card back, especially for the more abstract designs. So I implemented palette swapping to let the user pick! Also, here's a li'l sneak-peek at mouse controls! #artilleroyalty #gamedev #playdate #pixelart #1bit #indiegame #indiedev #godot

Cuz it wouldn't be the "deluxe" version if it didn't have a rainbow "DX" on the title screen #artilleroyalty #gamedev #playdate #pixelart #1bit #indiegame #indiedev #godot

I think I'm settling into a decent color palette here. I always loved the Playdate simulator's color-correction mode, which uses a grays instead of black/white. After testing, a desaturated color palette feels right. #artilleroyalty #gamedev #playdate #pixelart #1bit #indiegame #indiedev #godot

ArtilleRoyalty DX announcement post!? Still in the very early stages of the port to #godot and coloring the game. Coming Soon™ to Steam, iOS, and Android! #gamedev #playdate #pixelart #1bit #indiegame #indiedev

① ArtilleRoyalty (Artillery + Royalty) is a solitaire card game based on the 3x3 grid, the Gridcannon. Grab your standard deck of cards and help her depose all 12 pesky Royals. There's nothing Bun Bun hates more than a monarch! 🃏 play.date/games/artill...

I've been a hobbyist game dev for two decades, and yet this is the first time I'm actually charging money for a game. It's exciting, surreal, and a little mortifying! ArtilleRoyalty comes to the Playdate Catalog on September 30th! #gamedev #playdate #indiegame #indiedev

I couldn't help myself from writing a dumb, one-off music track. It literally only shows up in the Background Equip menu. Oh, and I added a more backgrounds! If someone REALLY wants this track, I suppose could add it to the in-game shop 👀 #gamedev #playdate #1bit #indiegame #indiedev

The play field for ArtilleRoyalty was looking a little drab. I've started adding some backgrounds to the in-game shop, including my dog Kiki! #gamedev #playdate #1bit #indiegame #indiedev

Smol Logo & Smol Bun Buns! Wrapping up some of the on-device Catalog shop assets for ArtilleRoyalty. It's actually gonna release on September 30th! #gamedev #playdate #pixelart #1bit #indiegame #indiedev

I overhauled ArtilleRoyalty's scoring system and added a Sonic the Hedgehog style Results screen with a letter rank. Instead of Gridcannon's score of 0-6, the new one has more granularity, so I also added support for Playdate's Global Scoreboard API. #gamedev #playdate #indiegame #indiedev

It is now a permanent addition. When you unlock the Card Back Designer, BAEN will get automatically added to your Custom Designs. I do mean it when I say permanent. You can edit BAEN, but you cannot delete BAEN. BAEN is forever
