I thought the gunsword was too similar to the other projectile weapons so I just made it Cassidy's ultimate from overwatch lol

If I do choose to include them, I'll definitely have an option to turn them off.

Except zeroes. Zeroes will still show up even if the setting is off

Cool scary evil sword that rusts your armor off and summons a ghost that kills you

The current demo that’s up on Steam runs on Steam Deck with no issues last I checked :)

I never explicitly made it work for Linux overall, so I’m not sure if it’ll run on other distros natively. I would very much like it to!

This might not be impressive to players but designers know that this is a terrifying standard to set going forward. What next? Enemies that do three things? FOUR? Next thing you know you've accidentally made Silksong

Turnout has been really good this year!!!

It’s really nice being reminded that people I’ve never met not only like the game, but some of them REALLY love it

Pixel Art game assets for a witch character

Pixel Art game assets for a witch character

I do my best work at 3 AM.

Roxy the Witch lives on the south west coast of the throneless country, somewhere remote where people can't complain about her experiments. She detests hard work, and specializes in deadly poisons.

I decided the Vampire level doesn't have enough variety so I've added these guys to spice things up.

If we get all the audio done + some NPC scripting this dungeon could have a playable demo soon so stay tuned :)

Ive got some really, really cool stuff in the works that I don’t wanna spoil.

I’ll work as fast as I can to get a demo of this dungeon finished so some of you can play it yourselves.

Not every enemy needs to have their head pop off at half health and shoot homing lasers outta their eyes
Sometimes I just wanna make a funny little guy I can put 10 of in a room without an issue. And I wanna call him "HELMORT"

Boring games, insipid, derivative: Ice Sword has a 10% chance to slow enemies on hit

My game, blessed, heroic, innovative: Land 5 attacks in a row in the same direction to summon an extremely cool freezing wind that makes enemies more vulnerable to damage
