So today is meant to be day 7 of my coding streak but I am in excruciating pain from eating something that triggered my IBS I'll return tomorrow with more progress, I promise!

We kinda have a game now? I still don't have an inventory system or any map generation but everything else is there. I diverged from the Porklike tutorial a lot now and I'm starting to do my own thing which is a bit scary but I'm getting it to work. #roguelike #pico8 #gamedev

Me, just a few weeks ago: man I don't know how much memory I need for a pico-8 roguelike Me, as of this week: if every mob including the player is in a mob array I use like 100 tokens max My player is now just a very fancy slime.

Didn't have much time to code today, another Riftbound prerelease to go to, but I did what I could. Enemy movement is now a bit more random and we have damage on both sides. I did not do anything for when Bootbarian hits 0 HP so as it stands he is currently immortal! #gamedev #pico8 #roguelike

So yea I wanted to make something fun and I had no idea what to do. I unfortunately missed the 7 days roguelike gamejam but really what's stopping me from just giving myself 7 days to have a working roguelike framework that I can then work with? So I restarted working on a silly idea.

Coming back from a long break due to health reasons and my grandmother passing away. Took a week long vacation and decided I felt like trying to create something, so I ended up working on a silly roguelike idea I had abandoned. Very early stages, more to come. #roguelike #gamedev #pico8

With all the drama regarding Chinese cards and the new CRD for #riftbound I decided to do some science. I acquired some bulk (and a Thousand Tails because it was ungodly cheap). The foils are curling heavily. Worse than MTG

Trying to find gamedev inspiration by doing #pixelart and I accidentally forgot to give this guy a boot and it turned into a whole brainstorming session. Then I made him a little slime buddy as a placeholder enemy so I guess I'm back to #gamedev

Braum corner to corner using Darius assist and Tag launcher. Ends with Unbreakable and advantage for a mix on wakeup. The 4T does connect but it's very tight on small bodies like Jinx (maybe even harder on Teemo? Will have to test tomorrow...) #2xko #braum #darius

That feeling when you don't know what to paint next... I have units to finish for my 3 of my teams in MCP but also I got MODOK 2 who looks like a silly little man, despite not having a real team to put him in.
