Oh yeah everyone forgot about that didn’t they. Instead we get Astro Bot. Which was a great game but what about Sock Boy!?

I’m glad a new generation of people get to enjoy my favorite characters. Once Nintendo decides to cherish their history and gives us commercial access to the titles they constantly take down from Rom sites. Then I’ll be happy to be a customer again. But until they open the vault. Good bye Nintendo.

Nintendo wants you to play their current lineup of titles and completely forget the rest of their history of games even exists. Why would I spend 449 when I just bought an amazing, compact Ryzen PC for 189? Why would I pay 70-80$ per game when steam always has games for 10 or less? #IndieGaming

They’re normalizing higher prices with the consoles and their first party titles. They’re making it impossible to play your favorite games, with digital downloads and barcodes that can simply be turned off with a switch in the future. #IndieGames

This is interesting. Around the time Sony and Microsoft’s consoles took over, another Blue Hedgehog’s console bit the dust. Did this contribute to scare away Sony & Microsoft from taking on mascot platformers? Seemed like they electively gave Nintendo all the fun mascot games, to market “cool/edgy”

Weird that the #Bsky preview for my link didn’t work but the one that I manually typed in does.

Go to Dafont's page for bitmap fonts & sort by creative commons, free to use:
www.dafont.com/bitmap.php
Then go here to create a bitmap font, you can adjust the font here as well: make it bold, italic, have an outline, and it will still keep the pixel style

Absolutely, I did not spend enough time on my title screen for my first game. This one makes me want to play.

Oh I agree, adding limitations to your pixel art helps immensely. Limited color palettes can also increase your speed and efficiency.

Hi! I made a 2D platformer and it released 6 months ago. It’s called #TellyTheTV
I’d love to join the starter pack 💛

Awesome, I always love seeing the NES color palette and modern games being created for the system. This game of yours reminds me of Firestriker for SNES. Love a good breakout game.

Animation & programming the animation took the majority of my time. Sound FX and Music had to be done very quickly, in less than two hours. I used one of my own personal songs I had made before, and turned the volume way low. I used A few different resources for Sound FX #GameDev #IndieGameDev Pt 3🧵

I posted a link above to the playable version on GD games. I was also wanting to fine tune the menu system, but I simply ran out of time. One but has to do with the timer starting on the refresh meter before you press the "start button." 🫠 #GameDev #SoloGameDev #72HourGameJam Pt 2 🧵

And here's the palette that inspired me for this game, which is called Clement 8. It's fun and inspiring for a fresh-tastic game about refreshment. #GameDev #ColorPalette #Lospec #PixelArt #IndieGames #IndieGameDev #SoloDev

Hoping to finish more sound effects tomorrow
