ZIK

Hello. Formal introduction time. I work on videogames for hobby. Mainly interested technical artist(?) side of thing. And I illustrate & push pixels for fun aswell. I'm currently focusing on my life, so I got not that much time to work on my personal projects right now. Please wait!!

Please allow deletion #indiegame #platformer #glitch

My surreal puzzle game 'The Charity Shop' has a demo in Steam Next Fest - available now

Q: 왜 조작키 변경 기능을 넣나요? A: 전시회를 전전하며 느낀 건데, 생각보다 플레이어분들이 Z/X + 방향키 조합에 생소하셨답니다. 근본있는 조작체계인 줄 알았는데!! \ Q: why are you adding the rebinding system A: for the longest time I thought the Z/X + arrow keys control scheme were classic & superior. but unfortunately many people at the exhibition disagreed

지난 근황 공유 이후로 대학교 랩실 인턴(?) 업무와 취업준비로 열심히 굴러다녔네요. 근황 공유에 가뭄이 일어나 미안하게 되었수다.. 근데 계속 굴러다닐 예정이겠습니다 끄아아앆ㄲ 🤠 \ sorry for lack of updates! since the last un' I've been more or less occupied with lab intern work and job applications. not to mention the crunch for demo & steam next fest! the horrour impending

간만입니다. 지난 전시회가 끝나고 바로 쓰러졌고요. 최근에야 정신을 차려 스팀 데모 공개 이전 혼신의 버그 퇴치 생쇼를 해보고 있답니다 🤠 특히 전시회 때 자주 발생했던 낑김 현상을 뭔가 잡은 것 같네요. 해치웠나 howsit. since the last exhibition run I basically got KO'd for few days & been working on bugfixes before the steam demo. splattered some physics bug(s) that happened in the expo!

bic 2026 페스티벌 데이가 오늘부로 개막이라네요. 큰일났구려 / day 1 of bic 2026's actual exhibition day begins. messed up

🤸‍♂️ 💥 🔨🦌

이번 주 금요일 전시회를 앞두고 광을 내려고 작정하고 다듬는 중이랍니다. 부산에서 뵈요 \ I've been having a field day adding polishes to the game for the expo this friday. see you at BEXCO, Busan (if you are somehow in this country)

recently realized gamemaker added support for clipping region & stencil buffer a while ago. I will have so much fun with this

최근 작업한 【크리스머스마】 에셋. 스팀에 쓸 녀석인데 도트는크기 조정이 이상하게 된다는 것을 알아차려서 하는 김에 서양식 만화영화 느낌으로 내봤습니다 🤠 \ recently I worked on an hi-res art asset to use on steam page for 【CRIKEYMAS】. figured pixel art does not scale well on those, so guess I might go full western cartoon aswell 🤠

baba is you "fanart" circa 2019

오랜만이네요. 주인공 녀석 디자인을 쬐금 수정할 겸 레퍼런스를 만들고 있어요. 이유는 제 그림체가 달라진 점, 기획이 추가된 점... 또 중요하게 "이거는 어떤 포유류인가요" 라는 질문이 자주 들어와서 그렇게 되었습니다 \ I've been working on updating the design for protagonist to fit the current game mechanics & my artstyle now, and most importantly because I was asked "what mammal is this"

요즘은 2학기 인턴 지원이며 전시 준비와 스팀 페이지 새단장까지 정신없답니다. 조만간 정리해서 회고를 써야지 \ g'day. so I've been away, from prepping exhibitions & new steam page assets to applying for programmer internships for next semester. hopefully I can make an update soon!!

Intermission time. 【CRIKEYMAS】 (a game I've been working on solo; you get to do messed up things as a reindeer with your big hammer) got picked for upcomming BIC 2026 exhibition @ BEXCO, Busan. This probably won't matter for folks overseas, but if you do drop by, feel free to visit me say 【yeehaw】🤠

혼자서 개발중이던 게임 【크리스머스마】가 이번 BIC 2026에 온/오프라인 전시를 하게 되었답니다. 맙소사. ◎ OFFLINE : 8/14 ~ 8/16 ◎ ONLINE : 8/7 ~ 8/28 새 컨텐츠를 깨부수고 피드백으로 개발자녀석을 신나게 갈궈봅시다🤠

[EN] I've been working on "RESPECT TOKEN" system for CRIKEYMAS - Obtained after clearing optional challenge, then reaching a checkpoint without dying - Why do we even bother ? -> You earn others respect ! (※ because of my throat condition, I couldn't record my voice. so placeholder sounds for now)

크리스머스마의 "존경 토큰" 시스템을 개발중입니다. - 획득하면 뭐가 좋은가? -> 존경을 받을 수 있습니다. - 체크포인트까지 무사히 도달해서 획득! - 그 전에 사망하시면 아쉽게 될 것입니다. (※ 제 목 컨디션 이슈로 음성 녹음을 못해서 사운드는 임시방편이에요 🤠) #gamemaker #gamedev

You heard right, we’re announcing N PLUS INFINITY TIMES TWO! Wishlist it on Steam now: store.steampowered.com/app/3040020/...

The first annual SOUPJAM draws to a close with an absolutely stellar turnout! There's a lot of great SOUP on display here, so grab a spoon and dig in! Thank you to everyone who participated in this year's jam and helped make it a success! See you in 2027 for the next one! itch.io/jam/soupjam2...

FAQ) 게임에 쓰이는 브금 & 사운드 대부분이 Klystrack이라는 칩튠 트랙커와 LabChirp 이라는 단순 FM 신디사이저로 만들었어요. 8/90년대 Demoscene 파생 PC게임이 레퍼런스였지요 \ FAQ) most of the game's sfx & tunes were made w/ Klystrack (chiptune tracker) + LabChirp (simple FM synth). I aimed for 8/90s' european(?) games (+ demoscene) feel. idk if I succeeded

엊그저께 졸업작품 전시를 마지막으로 급한 불을 전부 소각시켰습니다. 이제 개발 (학교) 말고 다시 개발 (게임) 해야지요...?🤠 \ With end of my graduation project exhibition few days ago, think I'm mostly done with urgent ones. Time to get programming (the game) instead of programming (at campus) ... messed up (seen below. WIP english patch)

hello !! I was meant to write a retrospect for recent 'boss rush' I did, from graduation project to exhibition. but I got more things to plough through at school, so until then please, have a quick highlight of the recent demo showcased at an exhibition. || #gamedev / #indiedev ||

플레이엑스포에 왔습니다. 아마 일요일까지 10시부터 6시까지 있을 예정이네요. 놀러오시라요 / hello from playx4 booth. I'll be staying from 10AM to 6PM, through sunday ! feel free to drop by and say 《yeehaw》 🤠

I take my tests really seriously. even if its just bonking your head against ceiling 24/7 because video game physics still finds way to haunt me \ 테스트 방식이 거시기해보여도 테스트는 테스트랍니다. 게임에서 물리엔진은 언제나 기괴한 방법으로 저희의 창창한 미래를 꺠부술 수 있어요 || #gamemaker / #indiedev ||

I call this, the 【the bonker】 technique™

보스 머시깽이. 아직 임시방편 에셋이 있지만 뭔가 만들어지고 있답니다 🤠👍 \ I'm making big guy to have a big papa huge time of a battle. lots of placeholder musics and whatnot but whatever || #gamedev / #gamemaker / #indiedev ||

go go go !

Doing yap icon comms!! They're an astounding 25$ USD each, wacky!!! You can find those heere <3 only 10 slots available! ko-fi.com/c/dd9d216b94 #art #commissions

난이도가 막장급으로 올라간 것 같지만 신경쓰지 않아도 될 것 같습니다 🤠👍 \ I guess I'm making kaizo level now. don't ask me why || #gamemaker / #indiedev / #gamedev ||

지금까지 테스트 하신 분들 중 "커맨드가 뭐가 있는지 잘 모르겠다" 라는 피드백을 여럿 받아서 상시 표시되는 커맨드 목록을 넣어보고 있습니다 / one of the main feedbacks I've got from playtesting was that people kept forgetting how to attack. so I've been experimenting with adding input prompts on screen || #gamemaker / #gamedev / #indiedev ||
