Hey folks,
sorry for being silent lately. I was busy working on stuff and dealing with life in general.
Abandoned a game idea (for now), to make a little more happy game.
Mooventure - Dungeon of Snacks, is the title and it is a puzzle game, where you go through a dungeon and find snacks, to prog...

Hey folks!
Good news today! I published my next game!
I worked on this one for over a month and learned how to use Game Maker Studio 2. It's a small game, but fun.
You take the role of an AI, who tries to evade the threats thrown at them and try to flee into the vast space of the internet....
2019-06-14 11:10:58 +0000 UTC View PostHi folks,
sorry for the silence! I know I should keep you updated more, but I was pretty busy all month.
What developed from a different idea, became a dungeon crawler, with a neat little story.
The name is Self.explore() and it is about an AI, who wants to be free and not exploited.

Hey folks!
It was a little silent around here, so I thought I update you all with a few treats :3
I am working on several projects and "Moo finds home" is one of them. It's a little platformer about a tiny moo.
So far I have movement down and the major animations for moo. Also animated tiles and...

Good news! I got a Game Maker Studio 2 License (Desktop), from a very generous friend, and can make more detailed games now!
First game will be a sokoban like puzzle game, to get the IDE working and learning how to do stuff.

My second pico game was released on itch.io :3

I thought a little more about the pastry idea and what it should be about and developed a very nice idea with Ulvra.
What it will be is the following: A Columns like game (mix of Dr. Mario and Tetris) where you make bakery goods!
What I need from you: Bakery you really enjoy (3-4 things would b...
Hey folks!
I have an idea for a new game, but I need some input.
It's about making baked treats and I would love to know what you would like to see.
Share your favorite pastries in here :3

I am working on a new pico game (and might just make a couple more, until I am more comfortable with bigger pixel art)
Anyway, this is an Asteroids clone (kinda) with bounce mechanics! Bouncy, bouncy, bouncy bounce :3
Right now there is no goal. Items are added later, but you can boun...

I totally forgot to mention, that I took on streaming more.
I'm streaming parts of the development process, but mostly drawing art.
There is no schedule, but I will announce stream starts on the discord server :3
Hey folks,
I know I didn't do an update here for some time, so a little catch up!
I release Amoozed and Amazed, but might rework Amazed later.
Also started working on Glitch, but that will take some time, as I need a working Game Maker Studio 2 license (Desktop, that's $100) to do it.

Hey folks,
great news! I published my first game onto itch.io.

Some updates on stuff:

No art right now, but some serious question.
First a few infos though:
I do love platformers. I loved them as a kid (when I played Sonic the Hedgehog and Astreix & The Secret Mission on my SMS II) and I do love them still.
Most of the games I played in my live are 90s platformers and stra...
2019-03-19 17:48:04 +0000 UTC View PostHey folks!
Some more updates again, this time mostly graphic, but also some code.
I decided to use the GBA tile map format to create screens and tinker around with it a little.
That also allowed me to make some mockups, so get to see two of them!

Hey folks!
First of all, Amazed will be ready soon, me working on this game won't delay the release of it. I just able to work on it independently, so I take the opportunity.
But for actual Glitch updates.
I have picked some music for the game, so have a listen!
Moon Chime by Oddworld will be used fo...

Hey folks!
Like I said before, this is some concept art I did for my next game "Glitch".
Like always, Ulvra helped me with it (by being judge and liking everything X3 But she's a great help)
This game will have a lot more moving parts and like I said it will be a match 3 puzzler in the style of "Columns", ...

A few updates on stuff.
Amazed is more or less done. We just work on a few more graphic sets and Ulvra is helping a lot here!
Also thanks for enabling me to make this fun little game. I hope you will enjoy it.
In other news, I started on another game and thought about what this ...
2019-03-13 23:57:30 +0000 UTC View PostAs promised, here is the early access to one set of assets!
A second theme will be made available, as soon as I am done with it (likely updating this post then).
Tiles, backgrounds and sprites! All are CC-BY-SA 4.0 licensed
Edit: As promised, the alternative graphics are included!
2019-03-10 15:35:12 +0000 UTC View PostSo, as I talked about on my social media, it gets close!
I test the few last things, then might do a little bit of cleanup, but the game is finished.
Just need to add a few more themes, then it's done and will be available on itch.io and every patron will get a copy too!

Hey folks,
I felt a little artistic and made a few things.
The final game will have definitely a graphic version now (which might be the only version, but we'll see)
Anyway, that's how the game will look in the end, with the "Depp Purple" theme. There are about to be at least 6 other themes to it. Half of ...

This also includes a complete rework of most of the code, to make it cleaner, but planned features are:

Hi folks!
Today I have some more new things!
I reworked most of the code, to work more nicely together and this is the result!
The only thing, that is missing, is a real GUI now.
Otherwise, there should be a few gameplay tweaks and that's it. I should be able to ship Amazed next week!

So a few updates on "Amazed".
It will be a maze crawler, where you have to find a power cell.
You have 200 energy. Each step takes 1 energy.
If you reach the power cell, it grants you 200 energy on what you have remaining, but it also increases the energy consumption (by one) per step!
Let's see how long you ca...

First of all, some information.

The goal is to find a power cell, which is randomly spawned inside of the maze and you have to reach it.
The thing is just, that each step takes energy and you only have...

Like I promised, here are the game assets for "amazed".
Depending on how things go, there might be more added, but we'll see!
Those are 64x64 (scaled up from 8x8) tiles and kept simple on purpose.
I just love the look of an old Atari like game, so I tried to go with that!
More posts on that coming soon.
