Char

decided 2 seconds ago i want the dev log to be on main because its just rambles its not going to clog media tab etc #cbfdev time to be @charlieboyfriend.bsky.social yup yup

i never got used to doing pixel art For Fun in a way... its very rare for me to go "maybe i should Doodle A Sprite" like i would w regular drawing. oh well

working on it in parallel w hmm. think i wanna start making tilesets for part1 ? not many locations so totally ok and nice yup yup

ill make a vague draft for 3 parts total (last ones like. finalizing the overarching stuff + self indulgence for 16 year old charlie i figured out how to fit his ocs into the narrative yayyy) (so def less serious + smaller in scale)

basically 10fold... but im also still figuring that one out in general, there has to be some optionality with it that i am unsure about (game design territory... im a rpgm dev... we dont rly um.)

introductory "chapter" so it seems appropriate... but it does make me realise the other one will be ridiculously long (this is the motions for 1+1 characters. other one has 2+9)

first draft ready ~5k words #cbfdev

woman #roseofversailles

thank youu! starting it rn

nice ok ok thank youu ^_^ hollow knight a bit cheaper too im going to buy it now n see if i like it yayay

my insta tag for them is charbfoc but oc doesnt feel like a fitting word anymore... not bcs im somehow above ocs i DO have guys who ARE ocs but these r just Characters... People even but thats a whole another thing omfg.

i want all these rambles under same tag actually uhhh uhhh lets be #cbfdev that seems like it doesnt mean anything else ok cool

at least WEHG for sure bcs like. its like a weird branch of how my characters were... i used to totally draw kacper w those two girls then i just put them in it without him... But ok

i should reread them probably on my liveblog... Maybe maybeee... but so scary

im not the kind of person who looks at my old art and goes Bahaha this was so terrible! bcs it feels mean and sad... im sure theyre all nice games.. it just doesnt feel like theyre MINE

i dont wanna write jam games anymore it puts me in a weird cycle where i sort of dont want to stand behind anything ive made bcs "ooh oooh it was under a deadline its not my BEST"........... and i have a weird memory too i dont Actually Remember anything abt them

I remember one of the girls is so adorbs i might steal her face for the new angel girl... i realise this might make it seem like theyre in the same universe or so... they are not

im also realising theres some tonal similarity to WORLD END HEART GIRL but the issue is i dont remember how that one goes... rereading something thats technically MINE but i feel such distance from... sounds weird

i realise it might work better as a webcomic or zine format but... heart wants rpgm

Anyaway... i made up a sort of prologue for my mainline characters (might seem redundant but it is important to me... world set up + finding the style...) completely new characters for it (its ok its just 2 girls.) dialogue script first draft is almost done (~75% maybe?)

here comes the jester and the princess!

Im Not Sending My Face To Evil Twitter Nuh Uhhhhhhh... I amm22...

I was debating between starting to semi dev log here or twt then i go over there BAM age verification

The electric zine maker so cooooooool.... rly wanna maek smth...

4:3 is a divine aspect ratio blessed by god

Like from a scale of "COMPLETELY UNRELATED WHATEVER" to "Probably Has References But OK To Play Without" to "U Can But Get Some Kind Of Summary First" to "Absolutely NOT. get the og first"

Does anyone here know. How OK is it to play silksong even though i never touched hollow knight and dont know anything about it... Youre all just making me so curious

im leaning towards tumblr bcs ppl r nice there and making a side blog is so easy... But ill think about it

but yeah that ^ i dont know the best place... im 4x combo cross posting all my fanart stuff all over the place (currently bsky twt insta tumblr) but none of these feel like im really "there"

i could start posting about them in SOME form even if any game wont be made in a while.... when it comes to writing i get stuck on stupid things... writing is the most difficult thing of all they dont tell you this
