NEW project for class, since the physics of the last one were pissing me off T-T #gamedev

Latest look at the grappling hook in this mini-project for class! Grappling physics are lowkey pissing me off but they're working! Just gotta polish it! #gamedev #physics

Working on a small project for my art history class, and I'm adding a grappler. Pretty excited for this project, but I only have a month to get it done, so hopefully I can deliver in time! #gamedev

Animated this for a friend #teto @thestorynerd.bsky.social

#happynewyears Short little fireworks system that I whipped up real quick today! #gamedev #pixelart

Very early footage of some redone dashing animations and the current state of the game! The combat feels much faster despite the reliance on stamina, and the new animations are helping a lot! Not quite done with the visuals, but we're on the way! WIP footage obviously #gamedev #pixelart

Playing around with OBS and a Scott Falco tutorial, might have some results soon??? #streaming

Currently working on a stagger system for Punch Punch Punch! Strong and slow attacks will build up fatigue, and if it reaches 100, the boxer will become staggered. Using a strong punch then will force them to fall! #gamedev #2dfighter

Currently working on redoing more of the animations, and I added a cross punch to help the jab feel more varied when using it back to back. Now I just have...all...of the other animations...to redo... this is gonna take a bit #gamedev #animation #pixelart

Reworking the animations for PPP! It's gonna take a while, but here's the new idle! #gamedev #animation #pixelart

New devlog going over the Monke Jam I participated in earlier this year, as well as a personal story about my journey as an artist! #gamedev #devlog

In case anyone is worried, I'm obviously doing much better as far as my view on my art, but there were definitely lows. Always keep in mind that critique is one thing, and hate is another. Critique should encourage people to try again, not break them down and feel like they can do nothing. Make sure your circles reflect this! ~~~~~ The Story Nerd here!

Thumbnail for the upcoming devlog! Not another Punch Punch Punch one yet (still working on it, I promise!) but a game jam experience I had this year that I want to talk about! Also, first time drawing my thumbnails, let me know if you like it! #gamedev #devlog

I've been forgetting to post updates lately (sorry!) but I'm currently working on particle effects and in general upping the visuals of Punch Punch Punch! Let me know your thoughts! #gamedev #particleeffects

Working on adding a dynamic camera to the game! The camera getting closer really shows how rushed some of the animations are, so I guess I gotta update those next... #gamedev
