@gamedevtris.bsky.social

#10 My boy is on the move #gamedev #indiegame #indiedev #pixelart #bigheart
it is a bit difficult to balance playing games with making them sometimes huh? i often wonder how much enjoyability i compromise for the grind and the hours that escape me, but i have a story to tell so
#9 it's coming along! our character has a bedroom, and he is in it! More furniture coming! I was also able to get movement going. Stay tuned! #gamedev #indiegame #indiedev #pixelart #bigheart
#8 Walk cycle locked in! Was fun to add a little shading! Took most of the day to be happy with all of the pixels. Next, we'll add it to the game world, stay tuned! #gamedev #indiegame #indiedev #pixelart #bigheart
Happy Saturday! First animations are happening! Vets of my games may recognize a striking resemblance... working on finishing the others directions so I can start putting together some game scenes #gamedev #indiegame #indiedev #pixelart #bigheart #screenshotsaturday
#6, got to work on some animation today so I'm pretty hype about that! For now take a look at some more poses :) #gamedev #indiegame #indiedev #pixelart #bigheart
4# Working through the core combat poses on the characters, I made a minor adjustment to their hands and I think it adds a lot of character don't you? #gamedev #indiegame #indiedev #pixelart #bigheart
#3 Didn't have an insane amount of time today but was able to get some poses in! Going to do some more before I wrap up but want to stay consistent with posting. #gamedev #indiegame #indiedev #pixelart #bigheart
Thank you for all the follows and support while I took a social media break btw. I had to juggle a lot of real life stuff so I can responsibly start another game dev <3
Fiddling around with some combat! Big Heart (working title) will feature 2 battle systems! Turn based and real-time! Going to start slowly plugging in some pixels soon! (Actual classes are not Mage, Rogue, and Warrior don't worry lol) #gamedev #indiegame #indiedev
My name is Tris! I'm working on an RPG about a game dev working a mundane day job who's world gets consumed by despair! I'm trying to get the demo finished by the EOY so let's see if I can get it done? #gamedev #indiegame #indiedev #pixelart
I'm back in the lab! Going to be working on a new dev daily. My hope is to have some kind of juicy demo out this year :D
Update 12! Inside Ship King! It is getting challenging with my schedule to keep up with this so I just hope to find small pockets of time for it. I just need to make the staff area and I can begin coloring! #pixelart #gamedev #indiedev #indiegame
Happy #Screenshotsaturday! Just going to repost my train car from earlier in the week! Excited about getting to color next week!
Update 11: Outside and inside of the train cars! Really happy with how these came out. I'll be giving this project an official name soon! #pixelart #gamedev #indiedev #indiegame
That's me! Appreciate the shout out!
Day 5 of Black Game Developers Month 2025: Tristan Barona @gamedevtris.bsky.social of Taco Pizza Cats @tacopizzacats.bsky.social released KindFolx, a roguelike deckbuilder, less than a month ago! #Blackgamedev store.steampowered.com/app/1408730/...
Update 10: Train platform! Will share train car tomorrow! Just need the other station, and work building as the main locations. Will need some miscellaneous buildings to pad out the streets just a bit, but then I get to color! #pixelart #gamedev #indiedev #indiegame
Update 9: I've already scope creeped myself by adding a Train Entrance Inside! Some kiosks and an info booth here. Next will seriously be the train platform... Or maybe an area where you choose the train... I guess I can always add that later lol. #pixelart #gamedev #indiedev #indiegame
Update 8: Train Entrance! Next stop? Train platform! Getting close to coloring! #pixelart #gamedev #indiedev #indiegame
Update 7: Bathroom is done! Tomorrow I will try to finish up the train station entrance. Remaining intro locations: -Train Platform -Train -Some kind of Subway Tunnel -Inside Work Location So, all in all not bad. Just gotta take it one step at a time. #pixelart #gamedev #indiedev #indiegame
Update 6: Living Room :) Tomorrow: Bathroom! Then the apartment outlines will be done! #pixelart #gamedev #indiedev #indiegame
Update 5: Finished up the bedroom over the weekend! Working on the living room now! #pixelart #gamedev #indiedev #indiegame
Update 4: Just a bedroom that I started working on! Didn't have a ton of time yesterday! #screenshotsaturday #pixelart #gamedev #indiedev #indiegame
Day 3 Update: Worked on the interior of my apartment building! Still need to work on that Train and Station, for the intro of the game the assets are moving along smoothly I'd say. #pixelart #gamedev #indiedev #indiegame
Day 2 Update: Worked on an apartment building! Tomorrow I need to create a train or train station! #pixelart #gamedev #indiedev #indiegame
Day #2 Didn't get to work on my buildings today but will get some time soon! But I was able to do a little more clean up and add some features to yesterday's building! #gamedev #indiedev #pixelart #indiegame
