Been a bit too busy with work recently to make as much progress as I'd like to on CQ. Regardless, I've recently begun putting the Candy Cosmos backgrounds into GBS. Expect posts to stay infrequent for now, though. #indiegamedev #gamedev #indiegame #gameboy #gbstudio #pixelart

Wanted to make my own version of the SMB3 Goomba Shoe but with a bit more flair. Behold, the Gummy Galosh! #indiegamedev #gamedev #indiegame #Nintendo #gameboy #gbstudio #pixelart

A VERY early gameplay showcase for what I've been working on for the Candy Cosmos. As you can see, a lot of the previous stage's mechanics are getting another chance to shine here. #indiegamedev #gamedev #indiegame #Nintendo #gameboy #gbstudio #pixelart

No April Fools bit here, just a minor update that work is still being done! Life is still a bit hectic for me, but I've been steadily chipping away at the stage designs for World 5. (Check out these cute candy baddies!) #indiedev #gamedev #gameboy #pixelart #gbstudio #Nintendo

Sorry for the lack of updates/showcases recently. I just got finished with moving earlier this week and I'm still busy settling in. Hoping to get back into the swing of things asap!

Currently working through fleshing out gameplay mechanics for a big chunk of final act content. (Here's some blips of different assets I've been working on for this, surely some of you will get what'll be going on here 🤭) #indiedev #gamedev #gameboy #pixelart #gbstudio #Nintendo

The Candy Cosmos #indiedev #gamedev #gameboy #pixelart #gbstudio #Nintendo

The backlog clog is no more! I've finally begun working on the "final act" content for Candy Quest! It's still a little too early to show anything yet, but as usual the wait will be worth it.🤩 #indiedev #gamedev #gameboy #pixelart #gbstudio #Nintendo

Getting back into posting after the holidays, I'm almost finished with the huge backlog of fixes and additions that I want done before starting on the game's final act. Including auto-saving and a quicker respawn mechanic! #indiedev #gamedev #gameboy #pixelart #gbstudio #Nintendo

Nothing too wacky happening currently. Still just working away on minor features and bits of polish. #indiedev #gamedev #gameboy #pixelart #gbstudio #Nintendo

After all the map stuff, I'm back to working through my backlogged to-do list of bug fixes and other small features. More recently I've given 2-3's "Tinker Toy Terrors" stage a desperately needed glow up. Check it out! #indiedev #gamedev #gameboy #pixelart #gbstudio #Nintendo

And to finish off our current world map showcases, we have the Count's Cathedral! #indiedev #gamedev #gameboy #pixelart #gbstudio

Now for a showcase of the first fully new map in a while, the Sundown Cemetery! #indiegamedev #gamedev #indiegame #Nintendo #gameboy #gbstudio #pixelart

Alright, I'm still trying to work some things out, but here's an early look at the new Mysterious Manor world map! #indiegamedev #gamedev #indiegame #Nintendo #gameboy #gbstudio #pixelart

Happy Halloween, everyone!🎃🍬👻🍭 (Though you'll still be waiting a while, Candy Quest should hopefully be finished come next Halloween!)

Before I go off showing the other world maps, I want to make sure they're all up an running first. Here's the stage unlock sequence I'm working on, along with me zipping around with the new running functionality! #indiedev #gamedev #gameboy #pixelart #gbstudio

Recently I've been updating existing world maps, along with creating new maps for the worlds without one. Here's the new rendition of the Fall Forest! #indiedev #gamedev #gameboy #pixelart #gbstudio

Here's a little looksy at the new world selection map I've been working on. #indiegamedev #gamedev #indiegame #Nintendo #gameboy #gbstudio #pixelart

Behold the big bad of World 4 - the Countess! With a wide array of projectile-based attacks and a fast-paced second phase, the Countess serves as the challenging finale to this late-game world. #indiegamedev #gamedev #indiegame #Nintendo #gameboy #gbstudio #pixelart #art

Something dark lies in wait for you within the tall towers at end of World 4... #indiegamedev #gamedev #indiegame #Nintendo #gameboy #gbstudio #pixelart

For our last stop in World 4, we have the Twilight Towers! Get ready to pull of some cool moves in this stage as you wall jump off banners, burst into the air with para-potions, and zip across grind rails! #indiegamedev #gamedev #indiegame #Nintendo #gameboy #gbstudio #pixelart

WIP 4-4 background. #indiedev #gamedev #indiegame #pixelart

Venturing further into World 4, we have the Labyrinthine Library! Make use of the Portal Books to warp around the enchanted halls of this stage, and don't forget to keep quiet please! #indiedev #gamedev #indiegame

WIP 4-3 background. #indiegamedev #gamedev #indiegame #Nintendo #gameboy #gbstudio #pixelart #games

Up next for completed world 4 stages, we have Poltervac Passage! Make use of your new Poltervac to suck things up and shoot them out as powerful projectiles. You can also pull off some crazy movement! #indiegamedev #gamedev #indiegame #Nintendo #gameboy #gbstudio #pixelart #games

WIP 4-2 background. #indiegamedev #gamedev #indiegame #Nintendo #gameboy #gbstudio #pixelart #games

Here we go, a look at the first complete World 4 stage, the Stinky Sewer! Throughout this stage you'll find shrinking pipes that allow you to freely change your size to overcome obstacles both big and small! #indiegamedev #gamedev #indiegame #Nintendo #gameboy #gbstudio #pixelart

Working on the backgrounds for the sewer stage. #indiegamedev #gamedev #indiegame #Nintendo #gameboy #gbstudio #pixelart #games

We're getting there. #indiegamedev #gamedev #indiegame #Nintendo #gameboy #gbstudio #pixelart #games

Another development update, 4-2 and 4-3 are both complete, and 4-4's stage design in now in progress. Once that's done, I'll likely begin designing the backgrounds for the world 4 stages. #indiegamedev #gamedev #indiegame #Nintendo #gameboy #gbstudio #pixelart #games
