Finished the exit anim today! - so here's it all together with the enter, idle & exit for the dash bubble vfx. #pixelanimation #solodev #aseprite #pixelart #vfx

Along the way, in person and in stream chat, I get asked a lot about how I work with my Autism & ADHD and not against when it comes to my daily workflows, I got asked to join a podcast last month with and the episode I'm in just went up so happy to share here.

I find the best way to not let myself get too down by the influx of AI is, find things that do not use AI. Celebrate it and share it! There's still so much of it, everywhere.

Hey all, wanted to let you know I've started a podcast! It's called Indie-opolis, and me and my cohost Noah the Otter will be interviewing an indie creator every episode. Episode 1 is out right now! Links below (also yes, this is a repost, because I tagged an impostor account last time):

Back from @Calfurry.ca! So many awesome people met this past weekend. Thanks to all those that came out! 💜 A really chill space and the Creator Corral was a great place to dev love, showcase and meet other cool creatives! Can't wait for next year.

Can't Stop Secondary Animation - Sometimes it feels like just animated where physics want's it to go based on the root motion. Work In Progress currently colouring & shading. #aseprite #canadiangoose #gymbro #hairtoss #animation youtube.com/shorts/rA_3K...

Another enemy in the palette. The Canadian Jerk Geese! I don't mess with them, but Marduk can't say no to a sammich! #gamemaker #solodev #soloindiedev #aseprite #canadiangeese #husky #zoomies

Here's the progress I made this week on my Colony Sim + RPG game! ⚒️🤖⚔️ Buildings are now comprised of blocks that the player can build freely! This makes management a little easier, and gives the player more agency when designing their village! #gamedev #indiedev #godotengine #screenshotsaturday

Am I the only one or is this upside down controller giving furby?

If you're not familiar with GMRoomLoader, it's a free GameMaker library for making room prefabs and loading room contents at runtime! github.com/glebtseretel... The next major v3 update is also coming soon, with expanded screenshotting, API improvements, and a bunch of QoL changes.

The Best Tool trophy for GMRoomLoader just arrived last night! There's something special about holding a physical object as the result of work that only ever exists on a screen. Thank you to everyone who voted, and to the @gamemaker.io team for making this happen! #GameMaker

Finally got the rest of the beavers shaded, I think I wanna add some shadows from the characters in the light shaft. What do you think? #indiegamedev #solodev #beaver

Construction Beaver! Thanks for the feedback a while on the shading, took another pass to final today. #indiedev #sologamedev #pixelart #beaver
