Added mouse control of the context menu & a custom cursor. Made control device switching in real time more intuitive. Items can be used & dropped. Beginnings of a notification system in the works!

One very late contribution to Pokemon day- a rare fan art of some of my favorite ghosty boys. Fingers crossed they don't human-ify the new starters >.>

Thank you all for the love on this one! It's an oldie but it's one of my favorite Zelda pixel art pieces I've done. I know it's been a bit since I've posted pixel art, I'd love to work and post more art when I can. Appreciate all my followers here for my pixel art, Towerbolt, and everything else!

4 square cutouts from a larger piece:
1: a fuzzy cat sits on a ledge glaring from behind a curtain
2. a chubby cat demands some attention with a mere gaze
3. a lanky long-haired cat is furiously determined to claw a fluffy pillow no matter how stuck his claws get
4. a fluffy doodle doggo licks her chops and waits for the puppy-eyes payoff

Steam Next Fest is here, but tons of great demos aren’t in it.

Not in #SteamNextFest? Drop your Steam demo link + 1-sentence hook + a clip or screenshots.

Thank you for hosting demos here!

Towerbolt is a fast paced vertical platformer set in the year 239X, and is all about outracing deadly rising lasers as you ascend and escape an impossibly tall tower prison.

Demo link below!

I'm sorry that your recovery is taking longer than expected, burnout recovery can feel so uphill like that. For Towerbolt, I had taken months off of it when things weren't working and I was burnt out, so I feel that. Rest is progress too, even if it doesn't feel like it. Do take your time!

Now begins Sprint 3: Inventory System!

Exploring different approaches to menus, but this one might be too simple for my designs. Nice to easily control some settings though!
