Hi, I'm Andy! I make pixels, cute games, and NES/GBC homebrew. Let's be friends! they/them

Having whiplash from needing to put many things on hold to scramble to find a new place to live & move -- renovict scenario, thankfully got paid to move, but less than ideal. Move is over, I have a new place. Things still heaped in boxes, lots left to unpack, but I finally got a basic office setup.

a warmup drawing in picotron, thinking of maybe doing a little single-screen arcade run-and-gun game that would have wave-based combat and boss encounters back-to-back. dynamic enemy rank and branching play paths between rounds. simple power-ups, no shops or leveling.

a practice drawing with sprites and tiles made in Picotron using its built in pixel art tool to draw, map tool to make the map, and code to draw the map and a corner placeholder HUD with a lives count. a dark cloudy background over a yet another grassy landscape stone blocks, a cat player character shoots a fireball, slimes that can shoot electricity, a blue orb, a pink staff, rays of light shining from the sky.

I need to try posting more here! Saw some activity since I was last here, especially my Super Game Boy demo I posted. I've been less active on bsky since holidays -- getting back to my recently-started job and with the cold weather I've been low-energy. Want to get back into gamedev/homebrew lately.

Got the furthest I've been in Ninja Warriors (SNES). Using continues (+ save states at continues) to see the later game, Stage 4 boss onwards is super punishing. At stage 6 boss now and keep dying. The game has so many cool enemy pair-ups that totally obliterate you if you don't master the combat.

I've spent the last two years developing firmware and software for a WS/WSC/PCv2 flash/development cartridge. Now, it has finally been announced and will be sold by 49bitcat in Germany. Sales start November 24th! Learn more here: 49bitcat.com/news/2025-10...

The nileswan cartridge

Cool, Marvel: Cosmic Invasion put out a Steam demo! This was the last game I worked on at Tribute. If you like comic superheroes, pixel art and TMNT: Shredder's Revenge beat-em-up style, you might enjoy this. Some characters (Spiderman,Rocket, She-Hulk) and enemies/bosses I integrated are there too!

Flap through peril in my new precision "batformer" that flips platformer trappings upside-down! Vampire's Best Friend releases this October Demo out now on Steam & itch, link in replies

magic sword on its surface seems like an epic quest to destroy the blackorb, but it's really about a very hungry guy with an overactive stomach who must constantly fuel up on chicken and grapes every few minutes to ward off dying.
