This week I've worked on the over world from where you enter levels. I've decoupled levels from entities which means I can have a lot of levels in a screen as they no longer take up entity space. What you see is one biome and the plan is to have several.

I love how this is slowly becoming a full game! We now have the framework for simple quests! Here's an example where our hero goes out to fetch the Red Orb for this villager! #nesdev #jrpg #thebookofrynn

So as it turns out, video files are much more compact than gifs. Who would've thought!

Either way, just a brief showcase of our new spells. Any rock and stone enjoyers in chat? ๐Ÿชจโ›๏ธ

Looking for game devs who have under 500 followers.. I am trying to find hidden gems which I can showcase on my YouTube channel. I provide no commentary playthroughs of games. If you are interested, please reach out or complete the game request form in my bio #indiegames #gamedev

Ok I love the game but is it considered quite difficult? Or maybe Iโ€™m just terrible. I canโ€™t get very far! ๐Ÿ˜ญ Iโ€™m also not 100% sure what jumping over the enemy projectiles does. Gives energy?

As much as I love retro and the nostalgia of N64 games, the camera controls on these games are absolutely horrendous and drive me bonkers. Itโ€™s very hard to go back to them after playing modern 3D games.

On the left, a field full of mushroom type enemies, showing the hardware colors the NES emits. On the right, a simulated view hopefully approximating the effects of Protanopia on the same scene. As long as all four mushrooms are distinguishable by palette at a glance, gameplay should be fine?

Hrm... I use "Earth" as my world palette, and mechanically "Air" opposes it. So I can lock earth to one strong hue, and the rule is that Air goes on the opposing hue. Then "Ice" and "Fire" are opposed on the luminence axis instead. Better? (Example is for Protanopia) #accessibility #pixelart
