Picture this: You find a sealed door in a dungeon. Do you (A) leave it alone, (B) try to open it, or (C) panic?

One of our characters grew up on a farm, but their story is just beginning. What’s your favorite trope for RPG heroes?

Me: Adds a simple feature.
Also me: Breaks five others.

good pixel art? call that ate-bit

In RPGs, do you name your character something epic, stick with the default name, or... name them something silly?

My first time playing through Chrono Trigger, I grossly underestimated the feels and had to deal with cutscenes of characters sobbing curse words for names.

it's kinda sad that digital work is so hidden

like there's no messy study room or bookshelves full of works you've read or letters from people and gizmos and widgets you've built or stacks of drawings and diagrams

it's all just, hidden in folders, already lost in space, and eventually lost to time

Today’s accomplishment: making the amount of time players can breathe underwater before needing to surface feel jusssstttt frustrating enough. Game dev is 10% ideas and 90% tweaking numbers.

Shoutout to other amazing indie devs out there—we see you and we’re rooting for you. 💜

Big milestone today—we’ve just finished the first draft of our demo! One step closer to bringing this world to life! 💜 Looks like it takes the devs 1 hour to complete--our beta testers clock in around 2-3 hours. Not bad!

Game dev lesson of the day: Always save your files. Always. (Yes, this is personal.)

The blacksmith character in Lunar Legend's first town is raising twin sons while running her shop. She’s a powerhouse! 💜

My primary craft advice for video game writing is actually to study every other kind of writing.

Things I’ve written for games: live action scripts, poems, slugs, taglines, screenplay-style cutscenes, in-universe metafiction, songs, weapon and company names, barks, mottos, and so forth.

Not sure who needs to hear it this year but if you have a game even 20% done you’re getting a game award.

Here you go 🏆

Our first project is "Lunar Legend" -- a cozy, retro RPG that makes us feel like kids again. Hoping to share more soon! 💜

This is a great & complex question. One of our team comes from book publishing, where predatory practices still occur. Book publishing’s answer is literary agents. You give up 15% of your profits to have someone in your corner for pitching to publishers and contract negotiations.

Reminds me of the very first time I played FF7. Put off the final boss for sooo long! I didn’t want it to end.

Oooh good point.
