Release Week! Cave Dave is out in 5 days πŸ’£πŸ’£πŸ’£πŸ’£πŸ’£ #GameBoy #indieDev

My Gameboy Shmup I Want Candy now has a background. It's starting to look like a real game. #gameboy #gbstudio #pixelart #indiegame #nintendo #shmup #cute #candy

Curious about building games for the Game Boy / Color with @gbstudio.dev ? Find many tutorials at @gbstudiocentral.com that are ver helpful to begin your journey! I've also written some of them, which you can find here: gbstudiocentral.com/author/attac... #gbstudio #indiegamedev

There is an unboxing video for the standard version of Sofia the Witch. OMG!!! This is so exciting. I haven't received my copy yet. Fingers crossed it arrives today. www.youtube.com/watch?v=W7AB... #gameboy #nintendo #gbstudio #witch #indiegame #physicalmedia

I hope the Planetary Parade tonight doesn't trigger a Monster Moon. Maybe that only happens in my Gameboy game Sofia the Witch Curse of the Monster Moon. I've been informed that the standard edition has shipped so anyone who order that version should be getting it very soon. #astrology #gameboy

What's happening here is I'm testing out scoring and saved hi-scores. for my Gameboy Cute'em Up, I Want Candy. I'm also tracking collectables to access a mini game, seeing if players collect 5 peppermint candies. Temp backgrounds from Sofia the Witch. #gameboy #gbstudio #candy #indiegame

A new work in progress video for my Gameboy Cute'em Up. I Want Candy. I now have a working HUD. It took some work getting a vertical score to work in GBStudio. But I think its working pretty nicely. #gameboy #nintendo #gbstudio #cute #gamedev #pixelart #candy

Hello #PortfolioDay! I'm Amour. I'm a pixel artist and game developer who enjoys creating fake game mockups and cozy isometric scenes in his free time. Nice to meet you! ✨

I Want Candy update, my Gameboy cute 'em up. Enemies drop different candy based on waves. The enemies have different states that I can control so I can recycle enemies without them feeling too much like a copy paste. The next step is to build some real levels. #gameboy #indiegame #schmup #gbstudio

Ice makes it tricky to control yourself, but it also increases your top run speed a little! 🧊 Also, the Kickstarter WOULD have ended today, but we got a 1 week extension! There's still a few days left to support Kero Kero Cowboy & get sweet rewards: kck.st/4fHvWUA #gbstudio #gameboy #gbc

WE DID IT!!! πŸŽ‰πŸŽ‰πŸŽ‰ Kero Kero Cowboy is 100% KICKSTARTER FUNDED!!! MASSIVE thanks to all contributors, both monetarily and those who helped spread the word. We made this happen TOGETHER!!! 🐸🀝🐸

My NEW #GameBoy game is out NOW 🍻 SEQUENCE is an addictive number puzzle game. Seriously.. I couldn't stop playing it while developing it. Pick it up for Game Boy, Game Boy Color, and Analogue Pocket -> thalamusdigital.itch.io/sequence-gam... Help a dev out - Mash the RT !:) #GBStudio #GBDK2020

I'm really happy with how this map scene came out. Again lots of placeholders here. If you can complete a special event in each level (not sure what these are yet) you can then access a harder level. I want it so you can pick your own route like in Star Fox 64. #gameboy #gbstudio #gamedev

2024 is almost over! We got In The Dark 2 physically sold in retro Gamestop locations across the US, which is crazy. Though it has been a challenging year, there’s still much to be grateful for. I also want to celebrate the amazing work of others. Here are my Top 5 favorite games this year:🧡

I've started work on a new gameboy game. A cute em up I've been calling I Want Candy. Still super early days, but wanted to share some progress. Basic gameplay is fire with one button and eat candy with the other. It should result in some fun game play. #gameboy #gbstudio #pixelart #schmup

Cave Dave is a #GameBoy platformer I'm working on. Everything is programmatically generated so different every time you play. Dave is trapped inside video game cave stages from throughout game history. πŸ‘·πŸΌ #GBStudio #GBDK2020 #GameDev

Did you know you can find alot of really cool retro like Devs and Artists from these starter packs. I've added some new people and still got 70 more slots available message below to be added :) Part 1 - go.bsky.app/UchK6W2 Part 2- go.bsky.app/N58ycnB #retro #gamedev #lowpoly #pixelart #gameart

Kero Kero normally only has 6 rounds in his revolver, but after picking up the Infinigun powerup he can blast away non-stop! Shoot first, ask questions later πŸ”« Support Kero Kero Cowboy's Kickstarter campaign here: kck.st/4fHvWUA #screenshotsaturday #gameboy #gbstudio

Over the last couple of months I have compiled a handpicked list of #GBStudio learning resources from all across the community. I made sure all of the resources are high quality and up to date. Have a browse, you might find something cool. You can find it here: docs.google.com/spreadsheets...

The creative struggle is REAL. How many unfinished projects do you have? πŸ‘€ #IndieDev #GameDev #DevStruggles #GameDevelopment
