My brain is so fried and all I want to do is aaaarrrrt 🪴 #pixelart #indiegamedev

Refining my cozy game logo and then I can start posting more about it from the game socials! I’m so excited 🤩 It’s a cozy 🌿 game, but unique. It’s so much fun to work on and I hope it will be even more fun to play 🤗 #cozygame #indiegamedev #indiegames

Good morning! 🌿 Jumping back into game art after taking a much needed break this weekend 🙈 Have a happy Monday everyone 🤗 #indiegame #pixelart #indiegamedev

Whew, taking a break from tilemaps to do some marketing prep and working on the ~story~ which is of course my absolute favorite part of this lil game 🥰 #indiegame #pixelart #amwriting

I’m so grateful for my partner who is genuinely kind, supportive, selfless, calm, and encouraging. It’s so lovely to be with a person who brings peace and groundedness, never underestimate the importance of being with the right person who gives you this feeling consistently 🙌🏼

Today is pixel art and writing and repotting my monsteras! 🌱 happy Friday everyone x

I found the PERFECT palette for the pixel art in my game, inspired by Studio Ghibli. How gorgeous is this 😍 lospec.com/palette-list... #pixelart #indiegames #ghibli

Applying a certain pixel art style to a specific perspective tileset is certainly…a challenge. It’s fun. But it’s a challenge. #pixelart #indiedev #indiegamedev

Somewhere, something incredible is waiting to be known.

I want one 🥹

I have a full time job. I am a single parent of 2 small boys. But I am using every ounce of my free time to write, to get better at pixel art, to learn Unity, to build foundations for a future I want. You can do it. Follow your dream. Start now. #indiegamedev #indiedev #pixelart #dreamlife

I'm torn with the release. Sales aren't too good, but the reviews are excellent. The sale-to-review ratio is also incredible. I'm hoping for more eyes for Without a Dawn: store.steampowered.com/app/3145620/... Thank you for your support! 💚💛 #visualnovel #gamedev #indiedev #indiegame #steam

#noobdev plan for the day: 1. Create some very quick 2D isometric maps to test, including colliders etc 2. Spend some time learning how to Collide Things Better 3. Figure out basic player controllers 4. Try not to break my brain 🙈 #indiegamedev #indieartist #indiedev

Space - Reposts Appreciated :) #pixelart #artwork

So lovely!

The thing I’m enjoying most about game dev is that my ADHD brain 🧠 gets to be constantly happy. I get to jump from art to level design to writing the story to light coding to troubleshooting to marketing plans and back to art again. It’s hard work but I love it 🥰 #indiegames #indiegamedev #pixelart

First draft of one of my sprite cuties for my cozy game 🥰 Her name is Wisp and she’s super mischievous but definitely has some secrets… #indiegames #cozygame #pixelart #indiegamedev

Hey all, I made a Starter Pack with some awesome pixel/voxel indie game devs and artists. If youd like to be on it please let me know, and please follow+share! go.bsky.app/SSojkCk #indiegames #indiegamedev #pixelart #pixelartist

My little work/art buddy, though currently she’s pissed because I’m working on my laptop instead of petting her 🙈

Working on some isometric maps today and trying to speed up with creating rule tiles. For some reason this is the one thing I genuinely don’t like doing 😂 Happy Tuesday everyone! #indiegames #noobdev

#noobdev update: figured out how to properly import and slice isometric tilesets and create layered tilemaps, yay!

Learning Unity update: finished the Essentials tutorial except for publishing and WHOA everything makes so much more sense to me now 😂 Jumping in to create a practice 2D map and then some draft levels for a 2.5D iso game bf is making. #indiegames #noobdev

Also this is a bit of a doodle I did for my cozy game and it feels sooo good to actually be working on this 🥹 #indiegames #cozygame #pixelart

Unity/coding noob: was coding a simple only-the-player-can-pick-up-collectibles thing and it completely broke 🫣 Ran my first debug and finally figured out the problem (player model issue) at like 1 am. Didn’t get angry, stressed, or genuinely frustrated even once. I love this. #indiegames

Learning Unity update: I’m done with the basics and the 3D sections, got stuck waaayyy too long on lighting and audio because it is SO fun 🤯

Okay, scratch that, I’m just jumping straight into Unity. Their Essentials tutorial is raaaad 🙌🏼
