Angory Tom's playthrough of Rift Riff is basically 100% the desired experience we tried to design and it makes me so darn happy!!! Every level he plays, every tower layout he picks, every butt-clenching enemy wave, it's all precisely what we had hoped to create. www.youtube.com/watch?v=RObt...

Working on new AoE tower 'Nova'. Trying to find a balance between making it on par with the other explosions, the tower having a comparably large range, and not being too intrusive to interfere with the feeling of oversight or control. #pixelart #indiegame #godot

New demo of our tower defense game Rift Riff is up on Steam. Third game I did art for, first game I also did all #pixelart animations for. Made entirely in #godot <3 Now spreading the word, gathering feedback, and transitioning into production for release! store.steampowered.com/app/2800900/...

Development of Rift Riff (in Godot) is doing very well. I'll have a thing to announce about that very soon. #gamedev #godot #indiegame

Working on our Steam page again. Found a style sketch for the key art. Think this one is pretty cool, even though it doesn't really tell much of a story :p #steamgame #keyart #sketch #indiegame

Cacti sprout through the ruins of an abandoned structure. This world's juice deposit seems to have replenished itself. As your basecamp extracts the precious resource from the ground, shadows of the planet's native creatures emerge to attack. Thankfully, you're well-prepared to face these monsters.

Making screenshots of our game today to see what can be improved to the environments, looking at them in the context of Steam store page material. One thing I found is that the 'make pretty'-assets should be placed right where the action is. #indiegame #indiedev #godot #pixelart

New map and some gameplay footage! This thing is coming together. Working towards release in April :D #pixelart #indiegame #godot #towerdefense

Looking for playtesters! Our tower defense game Rift Riff needs testing. Right now, a screen recording of the game + your voice (no face necessary) is the only feedback useful to us. If you're open to do that, sign up here: forms.gle/obJArPwAbYwT... #gamedev #indiegame #godot #godotengine

Made a new level for our tower defense adventure Rift Riff! #pixelart #indiegame #godot

Super stoked about this tree 😅🤓 #pixelart
