For #GBJam 13, we made an idle card game where your deck of cute familiars goes head-to-head against enemy monsters!

To fit with the theme, "unlucky", you start with no luck opening packs, but can increase your luck to discover and merge more powerful creatures. 🐈‍⬛

Inside the spaceship, the character Turbine, who is green and has buck teeth, is saying "They say if you love your job, you'll never work a day in your life. Seems I may be the only worker here."

Some Jamwitch Games highlights from me and @rosekeller.bsky.social:

💙Nothing to Say is a sweet letter-unlocking dating sim
💜The Case of the Dungeon Descent is a non-linear mystery like Her Story
🩷Interstellar Connection is a puzzle game with an unfolding story

The Incident at Galley House on Steam In 1936, something terrible happened at Galley House. Decades later, with a strange contraption that reveals echoes of the past, you must uncover the truth behind this grisly mystery.

Our next game is The Incident at Galley House, a remake of the text game Type Help.

If you liked The Roottrees are Dead please wishlist it on Steam!

How fictional languages are perfect for the Metroidbrainia formula · Thinky Games Traditional metroidvanias aren’t the conlang’s ideal pairing. Rather, it’s their thinky cousins, the metroidbrainia.

The Balatro Timeline — LocalThunk It’s been approximately 3 years since I began work on Balatro - and in that time I have personally documented almost nothing about the journey. This is something that has bothered me since the game la...

I've had parts of this written down for a while - but I thought it was about time to document the detailed version of what happened during Balatro development

I wrote up a long technical blog post about how I built The Roottrees are Dead: eviltrout.com/2025/01/27/b... - it was a super fun project to work on and #Godot was a big part of it.

The win screen end card for Magic Cat Academy. Momo throws her graduation cap up with her friends and the ghosts. Everyone is smiling, the colors are warm. Dog student didn't throw his cap, he is chewing on it.

Lose end card for the game. Momo falling back to earth, looking at a smug ghost. Many purple ghosts are flying back down around Momo, among shooting stars. One star has a bite taken out of it. The bg clouds and sky are purple and orange.

Momo and Marshmallow in the middle of a duel in space. Momo casts a spell that has yellow beams of light and sparkles shooting from her wand. Marshmallow's face has a purple glow and he grubs maniacally.A loose paper with an hourglass symbol is in the corner.

Some illustrations from our game!! Juliana did the sketches for these and I colored. A very purple year. 💜🧡

A photo of a watercolor painting of a fluffy black kitten witch wearing a dark brown hat, a simple beige floral dress and a green cloak with a big brown bow at the neck. She holds a broom in one paw and a lantern in the other. Two paintbrushes and a paint pallet are on either side.

It's spooky out there tonight, let me light the way 🐈‍⬛✨ #art #cuteart #cats #witch

Creative Types got 1st place for Innovation in #LD56!

During the jam, we couldn't agree on the design: #interactivefiction where you type preset responses, or "Mad Libs" where you invent silly entries? The compromise - some of both - worked great!

I made a pixel art upscaling/rotation algorithm called cleanEdge! It makes rotating pixel art as clean as possible

I made a tool for it too! drop your sprites in and get some nice rotated or upscaled versions :)

My latest game jam!

I wanted to make some cute tiny creatures like the Picori from The Minish Cap, but I'm totally new to 3D modeling and texturing, so they came out pretty rough.

#GodotEngine was great as usual and I was able to bring the characters to life with tweens.
