The Knightling, an open world 3D Zelda-like I gave a 10 last year, is on a massive sale at the moment. Great puzzles, snappy combat and a heartfelt narrative. Its mesmerizing soundtrack is one I still listen to. You won't regret it.

Made some progress on windows for my relaxing building game Island Architect! Placing windows now makes actual holes in the building! Will also make it possible to vary the window style, add details and more! Also glass roofs for greenhouses. #screenshotsaturday #indiegames #indiegamedev

My SimTower-inspired game, Vertical Empire, is coming along nicely! Been slowly adding new goodies. Used some of the assets to make a better start screen. Hopefully, I can release this before the project's first anniversary, which is fast approaching! #IndieDev #GameDev #PixelArt #SouthAfrica
