Just one example of builds where you can blow up your summons. Basically a screen-wipe but leaves you vulnerable after! Now ... which relic can fix that weakness 🤔

Give it a try! It's a super satisfying and soothing game 🧙‍♂️💀

#gamedev #indiegamedev #pixelart

We added ~15 new, strategy-refining relics to the game.
Honestly, we concepted enough relics to have more than 100 in the final release.
This is my favorite part of games & gamedev 🙌

I played this at a game test and it's sooooo satisfying to turn the red enemies into your own. Pleaseeee upload on Itch so I can play more

A screenshot of the game oath of the necromancer. There are ~200 enemies on the screen, showcased by their red, orange and purple color

Happy #ScreenshotSaturday!
Playtesting went wild, and balance went out the window!😅
I may need to put a cap on how many enemies can be alive at any given time 🤔
(Yes, those are ~250 enemies)

We're still working really hard on the demo for Oath of the Necromancer and it's looking so good!
I literally can't wait to tell the story of Toti!!

Great set-up! Love the lighting!

I'M LAUGHING SO HARD AHAHA I'M FRAMING THIS ONE
My first YouTube 'hate' comment, and it's S tier comedy + chef kiss.

How long would it take you all to write 7 code sentences? 🤨
I guess that's why games never get finished 😔
(end of sarcasm)

New idle animation ✨️🎉

I am adding more life to my games' levels. You will find imbued statues around the world.
If you have any ideas what I can make them do let me know 🙌

@moderation.bsky.app why did my post where I am sharing my embroidery project got Markt as spam? I did not violate any community rules

There is a tiny bee in the back

It's the French knot! I love to use it for lavender and dandelions

Thank you, they look amazing! I might make a design just with them and other elements!

It's a bit tricky to embroider on cashmere because the material is so soft. The best is cotton, if you want to start learning.

I would love to learn crochet, but for some reason I cannot even do the beginning knot😅

Oh thank you! I will look more into this flower, it is really pretty!

Thank you!

I hope this helps and you start getting into it! It is really relaxing

I first bought a set that included the hoops, thread, needles and the fabric. I looked up YT videos on how to do different stitches and now I am doing my own designs on my clothes or friends' clothes.

So I am trying to leave Instagram and Tiktok by working more on my hobbies. Here is my #wip of an embroidered tote bag. All hand drawn, so if you have any ideas of what I can add let me know!🌻

New intro post!
Heya I'm Nyco 🇩🇪🇬🇷, an indie game developer who lived in Germany, Netherlands, and now Romania.
I'm working with @landerack.bsky.social on a #pixelart Necromancer rogue-like game! 🙌💀

I also love & will post about:
- cats🐈
- nature🍃
- mushrooms🍄
- #gamedev!

Feel free to follow :D

And that marks 2000 skeletons for 2000 followers here on Bluesky!
I spent the last 3 weeks optimizing to make the game support 2000+ units at all times 🙌💀

Massive thank you to everyone who's supporting me💚

Example 2, Tiny Rogues: A tooltip for a weapon detailing its stats, showcasing rarity, and name in various colours, and use of a tag system. Tags are only shown, when the player presses Left-Shift.

Example 2, League of Legends: A simple explanation for an ability: The damage it deals, the cooldown it has, and the mana it costs. Including effects, but no deeper explanation for what the effect entails.

A question for game designers

How much information about a games' system do you want to see?

Example 1 is from Tiny Rogues, which shows more stats and info.
Example 2 is from League of Legends for a basic ability.

I personally like giving more info than necessary. I prefer design 1.
