But that means that there are still 5% that will appreciate it and are willing to listen! I know you've helped me in the past and I do appreciate it!

Decided to put a quick GIF together that showcases the main character from my upcoming game, Mr. Wizard, and his many facial expressions. :) #IndieDev #PixelArt #Wizards #Fantasy #Godot #Aseprite #PixelAnimation #GameDev #IndieGames #SoloGameDev

Thanks for the feedback @erisesra.bsky.social ! I think it's so cool how much of a difference just a few pixels (or less) can make!

Two pixel art, bearded, blue-robed, wizards standing side by side. They look nearly identical, but one has bushy white eyebrows and the other has naught.

Before and after shot! I added some bushy eyebrows to Mr. Wizard on today's live stream! I was hesitant at first, but they're really growing on him!!! :D twitch.tv/boulean #IndieGames #Aseprite #GameDev #DadJokes #HarHarHar #Godot #Outcaster #PixelArt #2D #Eyebrows #Bushy #Fantasty #Magic #Wizards

Thanks @erisesra.bsky.social ! The previous iteration was near-unanimously a 'squirrel' so had to make sure! :D

Can you guess what animal this is supposed to be? I'm quite new to pixel art, so I'm curious what everyone thinks. #PixelArt #PixelArtCommunity #8BitArt #SoloDev #IndieDev #RetroGaming #DigitalArt

If you place a camp fire in the perfect spot and get the timing right, you'll see Mr. Wizard with, what looks like, a black eye. 😁 #gamedev #indiedev #godot #2dgame #survivalgame #roguelike #boulean

Thanks for the feedback! I know exactly what you mean about the dithering pixels not aligning. I've tried to block it out, but, yeah, it's a thing. I'm still very early in the project, so perhaps I'll figure out a way to handle that better.

Finally! I took a screenshot of the game! πŸ˜€ What do y'all think about the lighting/dithering effect?

Progression in my game was defined by the pentagrams that the bosses draw once you beat them, but I wanted to have more than 10 levels. So I added these little obelisks for even more level progression. What do you all think?

Trying to boost up the juice of the game a little. Added an achievement/bounty menu that rewards you for collecting/destroying a certain amount of collectible. How do you juice up your game? #gamedev #indiedev #videogame #incremental #juice #godotengine #achievement
