for the first time in two and a half years, a new note was played in this organ performance today!
Just a guy and a girl hitting it off at sunset, high above LA on a decommissioned Nike missile tower, with no one else around for miles… (Except an annoying movie location scout who was sent to take magic hour pictures and is totally killing the mood. Sorry guys...)
Got most of the world rendering and movement done for my #lowrezjam entry. Taking part of my idea that I made a bit ago. #pico8 #gamedev #indiedev
