I've been wanting to do this for ages and it's finally happening. Instead of making a game for a jam, we're making assets for other people to use. That's the whole jam. We're taking sponsors, but there is a prize funded by DevTalk for the most voted by submitters. #vndev itch.io/jam/make-vis...

One of the hardest things about being a solo dev is finding large enough pools of assets with a cohesive style to make games. This pack is intended for comprehensive collections of #gamedev assets with enough quantity & quality to make many games. Help me find more 🥺🥺🥺 go.bsky.app/3UgrDw9
