Thanks for hosting #TurnBasedThursday this week @sharkbombs.bsky.social!

We're @alphachar.bsky.social & @martinpi.bsky.social, making SPARROW WARFARE, a wild deckbuilder full of birds and that good old "white noise" humming in the brain. Demo coming soon!

Our art for Sparrow Warfare has really come a long way! Here you can see one of Howl in his paper prototype form versus how he looks today - all done with public domain illustrations re-coloured, collaged, and vectorised ๐Ÿฆ‰

Yes this video also shows my desperate sticker game on the much-hated Windows machine. The stickers themselves are great though. Thanks Triband, David Lynch and @beingbrin.bsky.social!

We're playing lots of demos as we get our own one ready to launch for Sparrow Warfare, and we want to share the best ones along the way.

Here's @martinpi.bsky.social playing PLUTO - a weird and wild demo with a super unique mechanic. Give it a try!
