some more scrapped concept bits for #omegamonsters I initially sketched these for the N64-inspired game, so they'll either be canned or used in a future project. #wildnaturegames #conceptart #gamedev #monstertaming

some likely cut @omegamonsters.bsky.social characters, shrinking down the game's scope for the #gameboycolor game. maybe down the road we can do a sequel in a bigger engine, and these characters can be used then. #omegamonsters #wildnature #gbstudio #monstertaming #gamedev inspired by #kensugimori

concept art for Dr. Higgs, friend and mentor to the player character. I wanted to do something similar to a Professor Oak-type character, but with a much different personality. A strong mentor that can help push the narrative forward, explain things, etc. #omegamonsters #wildnature #gbstudio

I've decided to use my personal account to post game dev scraps, concept art, etc., and use it as a general dev blog of sorts. sometimes running a project account is challenging as you're not always sure what's appropriate to post. I'm hoping this will mitigate that, follow if you want extras!

overworld sprites of the two characters whose concept art I last posted (the player character and main antagonist) sprites by our new team member, @tortledove.bsky.social #omegamonsters #wildnature #gbstudio #gamedev #gameboy #pixelart

so glad you all dig the design! here's some concept art of one of the main antagonists, Borris the Cruel. #omegamonsters #wildnature #gbstudio #monstertaming #gamedev #conceptart

Happy Sunday, all. here's some concept art of the game's protagonist. #omegamonsters #monstertaming #gbstudio #gamedev inspired by #kensugimori

800 followers, thanks everyone! we've been hard at work behind the scenes, can't wait to share what we've been cookin'! @montamerkc.bsky.social #omegamonsters #wildnature #gamedev #gbstudio #monstertaming

some progress. I have a lot to learn about color mode. #gbstudio #omegamonsters #gameboycolor

This is so awesome! After seeing this I just created a background to try to match it

Hey guys! I'm working on a Bsky Starter Pack for people working on monster tamer games, as well as artists and other creators that are really big in this community Please comment below if you'd like to be added to the group! And let me know if there's anyone I'm missing too^^ go.bsky.app/9NcNjbi

please check out Antonio's big project if you have the time! it's a monster taming TCG of his own design. Antonio is a OM team member, and a really talented artist. go check him out! #monstertaming #tcg

The game is simple: give me a suggestion of what to draw and if that suggestion actually gives me inspiration then I'll mail you a sticker

we've started working on a #gbstudio game, to keep the game's scope sensibly small. the limitations are challenging, but help us focus on the core elements of the experience. right now we're blocking out the battle UI. more soon. #omegamonsters #gamedev #gameboy #gbc #monstertaming #retrogames

study time. #gbstudio #gamedev #gameboy #gbc #analogue #analoguepocket

It's been a really fun year working on OM with you, Kyle! 2025 is going to be a fun journey. 😎

in addition to working on @omegamonsters.bsky.social , I'm also working on quite a unique #pokemon #fangame. I'm going to start working on it again. GBC-inspired, the region is based on my home, upstate New York.

I apologize for the lack of updates. my wife and I recently had our new baby, and things have just been too busy for game dev. but I just wanted to tell you that I miss you all and I hope that you're well. I'll be returning to dev soon, for now please enjoy these sleeping pods and colonists!
