Playing with some of the new tile graphics from @craigstevenson.bsky.social. Still far from the finished look, but coming along nicely. #zyphatron #screenshotsaturday #gamedev #indiedev #pixelart #playdate www.bitglint.co.uk

More work on the new Playdate project. Better player movement, rotation and animation. Also got the NPC robots moving around, all be it in a very basic way. All graphics are just placeholders.

I've just released my first Playdate project, a little experimental Space Invaders clone called Retro Invaders. If you have a Playdate, and want some simple shooty fun then download it for free from bitglint.itch.io 😎

Almost 2 years ago I launched my first game on Steam! It's an adventure game that recreates the #zxspectrum aesthetic that I loved as a kid! 🤖⚡️

In BEEP'S ESCAPE you help a little robot escape captivity, by solving challenging puzzles!

Overreact, my first mobile app launched for iOS today, featuring a collection of (somewhat frustrating 😆) button-based mini games!

And a huge thank you to everyone who helped with testing and providing feedback!

(Android coming soon, I'm just waiting on the review process) #ios #gamedev

It’s an @itch.io creators day, where they don’t take a cut. All my #ZXSpectrum and #ZX81 games are free anyway, so support other devs!

Blackford PI by BitGlint Games A retro styled isometric detective story

My new game project now has a name and new home. Now I just need to add a large dose of effort to actually get the thing done. 😋 #blackfordpi #gamedev #monogame #indiedev #pixelart #isometric

It's Halloween! 🎃 Seems like an appropriate day for a shameless plug of Melkhior's Mansion, the isometric, retro horror fest. Download for free at bitglint.itch.io/melkhiors-ma...

Already there, in Settings->Accessibility, and very useful it is too!

I know, get on with coding Melkhior’s, but in my defence… trips to Somerset to see family, a holiday, watching the Olympics, resurrecting the garden pond, being pissed on cider, you know… real life

I've just arrived here and got nothing much to say, apart from that I'm creating a roguelike version of Speccy classic Avalon. #zxspectrum

I’ve got 56 bottles of fabulous West Country cider being delivered next week, and the weather’s looking good as well. This will either mean that I’m super productive, or… erm… not.
(wish I could simply pop around and refill a gallon bottle of two rather than all this mail-order lark, but hay-ho)

The woods were dark... Quick note - I've added a new version to the download.

After a nice request from a man of the cloth… comes “Horace Noir” / “Horace in the Mystic Wood After Dark” - the same game but purely in black & white like the original. It really is rather nice, and brings out the masks…
