โš–๏ธ Light. Dark. Two forces we pretend are oppositesโ€ฆ yet neither exists without the other. This monument stands as a reminder: division is an illusion. Wholeness demands contrast. ๐ŸŒ‘โ˜€๏ธ Is balance something ๐˜ฆ๐˜ข๐˜ณ๐˜ฏ๐˜ฆ๐˜ฅโ€ฆ or something weโ€™ve just forgotten? #MDO #GameDev #IndieDev #GameLore

๐ŸŒŸThe attention to detail in this build by @lanawanderwood.bsky.social is unreal. ๐˜Œ๐˜ท๐˜ฆ๐˜ณ๐˜บ ๐˜ด๐˜ช๐˜ฏ๐˜จ๐˜ญ๐˜ฆ ๐˜ณ๐˜ฐ๐˜ฐ๐˜ฎ tells a storyโ€”from the cozy kitchen to the bustling entry and peaceful lounge.

Iโ€™ve spent ๐˜ง๐˜ฐ๐˜ณ๐˜ฆ๐˜ท๐˜ฆ๐˜ณ ๐Ÿ˜ฉ trying to figure out how to make sloping terrain look good in top-down pixel artโ€ฆ and working with @bananannertoast.bsky.social has completely solved it! ๐ŸŽจโœจ This slope looks SO clean!! ๐Ÿ”ฅ๐Ÿช„๐Ÿ’– Thank you for the pixel wizardry!! ๐Ÿ™Œ๐ŸŽ‰ #PixelArt #GameDev #IndieDev #PixelArtCommunity

๐Ÿ‰ Deep within the scarred tundraโ€ฆ it waits. Locals whisper of a beast whose breath can freeze time, whose gaze pierces through flesh and soul alike.

๐ŸŽญ The Arena tournament begins. Which class are you choosing? A) Zealot โ€“ Teleporting skirmisher โš”๏ธ B) Bard โ€“ Large scale buffs/debuffs ๐ŸŽต C) Magus โ€“ Unleashes devastating elemental spells ๐Ÿ”ฅ D) Adept โ€“ Swift, precise ronin with deadly strikes ๐Ÿ—ก๏ธ Vote and tell us why! ๐Ÿ—ณ๏ธ #MDO #IndieDev #GameDev

๐Ÿ‘๏ธโ€๐Ÿ—จ๏ธโš”๏ธ Stay hiddenโ€ฆ until itโ€™s time to strike. This is how ๐ฌ๐ญ๐ž๐š๐ฅ๐ญ๐ก works in Aereniaโ€”stay out of vision cones, slip behind enemies unseen, then draw steel when the momentโ€™s right. ๐Ÿ˜๐Ÿ—ก๏ธ Would ๐‘ฆ๐‘œ๐‘ข play it safeโ€ฆ or risk everything for the perfect ambush? #MDO #PixelArt #GameDev #IndieDev

๐ŸŒ™ The world quietsโ€ฆ but not entirely. Soft lights flicker in the darkโ€”little beacons of life, of stories still unfolding. โœจ #PixelArt #IndieDev #GameDev #MDO

๐Ÿ“ฆ Not all heroes charge into battle. In Aerenia, ๐–๐ข๐ง๐๐ซ๐ฎ๐ง๐ง๐ž๐ซ๐ฌ are elite couriersโ€”navigating ruined terrain, hostile threats, and corrupt zones to deliver supplies between biomes. ๐Ÿƒ Itโ€™s risky. Itโ€™s lonely. But someoneโ€™s gotta do it! Would ๐‘ฆ๐‘œ๐‘ข take the job? #MDO #IndieDev #GameLore

๐ŸŒ€ Combat is more than just strikesโ€”itโ€™s prediction, timing, and space. This prototype showcases our directional dodge system in action. Whether you use it to escape danger or create an opening for a devastating counter, every movement counts. How would you use it? #MDO #PixelArt #GameDev #IndieDev

โš”๏ธ Scale. Height. Pressure. This arena concept was built to intimidateโ€”towering walls and no easy exits. What kind of enemy would thrive here? ๐Ÿ‘๏ธ #IndieDev #PixelArt #GameDev #MDO

๐Ÿ›ก๏ธ The Biomes werenโ€™t built for comfort โ€” they were built to survive. After the war, Eldryn helped construct massive domes using light and lost tech to shield cities from chaos. ๐ŸŒ Fragile sanctuaries in a world still full of danger. #MDO #worldbuilding #conceptart #gamedev #fantasy #indiegame
