Here's my first trailer for JoustVille! Trying to show that there's an entire living medieval world, with so much to do. But yes, the joust is best part. #pixelart #solodev

Players in JoustVille have a lot of ways to customize their character, which means NPCs have all those options, too! I've built a few different tools to keep track of everything. #heraldry #godot #indiedev #pixelart

JoustVille is a game for anyone who loves horses. One of my original goals was to have authentic #dressage movements that you could train. Then, before each pass at the lists, both knights get a chance to show off. This is the courbette, a classic haute école movement. #equestrian #horsegame

Here's the animation system I built for JoustVille. I can keyframe my art, save poses, adjust a skeletal rig, or, move individual components. I can also layer components, like the saddle or horse armor. And since it works using all my in game assets, it works in the game! #godot #indiedev #solodev

I built an entire animation system system, including keyframe editor, so the knights in JoustVille can be more dynamic! Every part is hand drawn as it's own layer, and then each frame is hand animated. The editor saves all the info in a json. #pixelart #indiedev #solodev #knights #godot

Hear ye, Hear Ye! Brave knights, now you can enlist a camp follower who not only expands the #heraldry system,the Herald will also introduce you! With a bombastic retelling of your adventures, Knights will get a custom introduction that's always unique and accurate. #godot #medieval #indiedev #rpg

I've been working on the joust scene for my RPG. Most matches probably won't take place inside a haunted cave, but there's a chance! You can find JoustVille on Steam #pixelart #16bit #godot #indiedev #solodev #indiegaming #steam #medieval #rpg #joust #knights

I've been working on JoustVille by myself for months. Yesterday a friend was my first playtester! It's satisfying to see someone else winning and enjoying it. #indiedev #gamedev #solodev #godot #16bit

JoustVille now lets you choose a horse of a different color! The game engine can generate all these different types, all from a grey scale original. #steam #indiegaming #indiedev #gamedev #horses #gameswithhorses #godot

I've been inspired by this movie since I first saw it.

Watching right now. Man, we used to make proper movies. "A Knight's Tale" establishes its entire premise within the first 3 minutes and then immediately cuts to "We Will Rock You" and some amazing practical-effect action that holds up amazingly well after 25 years. And this cast? Jaysus.

Here's how I'm handling #heraldry in my #solodev jousting game. The game is set in a historically inspired world, so I wanted realistic options, but also the opportunity to have fun and get creative. What do you think? #godot #pixelart #indiedev #steam

There is no amount of money, oil, or gold that is worth more than having bees, trees, and clean water.

A ruined name, an empty manor, a single horse. It's all that's left. Bond with your horse, take up the lance, and ride into a world that watched your family fall, but hasn't heard of you. Yet. Will yo...

If you had to guess what this game is about... Im wondering if I managed to create a good title card? #gaming #solodev #indiedev #indiegaming #godot #medieval
