Looks great! I am following this with a lot of excitement ๐Ÿ˜€

I have always wanted to create (and play) a game where you grow a tree similar to this. Will play this when I can, and might one day create a ๐ŸŒฒ growing game ๐Ÿ’š

I'm not sure which of you need to hear this, but:

If you push yourself to your limits and burn out for a company, you are trading years of your future productivity for minor gains in the present.

Burning out will _fuck you up_, it's like brain fog or depression, and it takes years to recover

an artwork held in inks and pale blues and beiges with popping reds depicts a mercenary, now adoptive father to a rambunctious Tiefling girl. He's dressed in armor while she wears a thick tunic with a fur collar and fur-lined bootsies. She's warming her hands at a fire she just set, face full of mischievous joy as she retells her latest tales of heroics, speaking of bloody battles with ginormous beasts in strangely gorey detail -- all the work of a 11 year old, of course. While her father, used to her delusions of grandeur starts nodding off, simply making smalls "Aha"s and "Mhm"s while her far too loud voice carries across the snow

Here's a really cool starter pack if you are interested in procedurally generated maps, terrain, levels, caves, ...

I am working on a bunch of stuff related to this myself, and will share when it's ready for daylight. And Hyper Light Breaker has proc generated maps already!

Book cover for Rulla, rulla lilla Nystan By ร…sa Nordstrรถm and Jesus Verona

Here's the book cover.

The book is about a red ball of yarn that rolls until there's only a stump left. Then a kid comes along and rolls it up again.

I absolutely adore this concept and the art style.

A couple of times every week my 3 year old currently wants me to read a book called "Rulla, rulla lilla nystan" ("Roll, roll little twine ball"), and it reminds me so much of this. Hopefully we can play Twine together ๐Ÿงถ

Nice starter pack!

I would love to be added to it. Working with Hyper Light Breaker and procedural levels at Heart Machine to some extent. As well as soon(tm) on my own solo project that I will be able to share cool information about eventually.

So true! But at the same time, I think games are more needed now than ever before. Some escapism is healthy, we all need to unwind, and playing games is great way to do so.

Exterior and interior concepts for an old rundown bar with stained glass. Inside is a smokie dive with lots of plants and hanging cages for different creatures.

Exterior and interior concepts for an old rundown bar with stained glass. Inside is a smokie dive with lots of plants and hanging cages for different creatures.

Exterior and interior concepts. The exterior building shows a broken-down green metal building covered with pipes and tiled skull murals. The Interior is dark and lit by glowing cabinets and computer terminals, wires hang from ceiling and lay across the old metal floor.

Here are some concepts for shops for the #HyperLightBreaker hub world. I used the drifter designs to influence these so they would all feel like part of the same world. The tile mural is a little nod to the beautiful pixel artwork done in Drifter. Next week, some enemy concepts! #ConceptArt #GameDev
