The Blimpolini arrives!
Making new enemy sprites for Vikings on Trampolines. The temp-sketch for the Blimpolini is a large balloon that acts as temporary platform, but its also mindlessly carrying a bomb, so you need to pop it before it blows up. I added a bit of a subtle fish-theme as well #pixelart #ドット絵 #gamedev

We had a great run while it lasted. We poured our soul into making the Owlboy Limited Edition for PlayStation truly special. Especially the 32 page instruction booklet, which we modeled after the ones we poured through as kids. Thanks for letting us chase our childhood dreams! ❤️
The physical editions of our game just arrived at our office! Feels extra special given the recent news ❤️ Thank you @superraregeorge.bsky.social for making this happen! superraregames.com/products/srg... | @savant.bsky.social
