A minor change: messages--whether informative or narrative--now act as modal dialogues, pausing the game until the player indicates that they're done. 🌖"Moons in Crystal" is an isometric fantasy "space" metroidvania.🔮 #MoonsInCrystal #Metroidvania #GameDev #IndieDev #IndieGame

I seem to be finding that it's surprisingly hard to buy new music where I am. (Legally, at least.) Okay, BandCamp works, and works well--indeed, it's often my first stop. But for music that they don't have... Let me tell you a story: 🧵1/6

Just as a reminder - I'm looking for work! Full-time, part-time, or contract! I'm an experienced game programmer, specializing in implementing gameplay and writing tools and UI systems. As an example of my work, here's a video of a side project I'm working on: www.youtube.com/watch?v=2mbJ...

Take a moment from doom scrolling to rest among the weary. Perhaps, share a kind word for fellow travelers? #pixelart #indiedev #gamedev
