THIS LOOKS AWESOME!

As we close in on Spooky Season, the nights get colder and the fog gets thicker, why not stay in and help Jacob confront his traumas in our debut Game #Blanky.

It'll be a warmer and cosier use of your time than heading out this weekend, probably a bit cheaper too.

Here's the trailer for #Blanky

A young boy named Jacob journeys through a nightmarish world full of horrors.

With his trusty blanket "Blanky" by his side, Jacob must find a courage he never knew he had to face his biggest fear.

Finishing up this street before the weekend begins.

Needing some garden ideas but not sure I can just knock on my neighbours houses and ask for a look.

Store assistant: "I like your tash"

Me: "I'm not paying with cash"

...

That is how you take a compliment.

Back to #GameDev.

Seeing as it's #WishlistWednesday it'd be wrong not to mention our debut game #Blanky.

Please consider wishlisting (and even purchasing) Blanky so we can create more wonderful adventures.

Work in progress for the #Cinema

Still trying to find the absolutely ideal look, but I find it's better to get something down, see the overall project grow and then come back and give each bit that finishing touch.

Hope everyone has a great weekend.

I'm making a wholesome Pixel Town to try and rid my mind of what I saw in #MonstersEdGein on #Netflix.

JEEEEZ, tough watch.

The project today.

Finish up this Tudor style building for the posh part of town.

Does this mean the next shop I draw has to be a candlestick makers?

Are you even doing art properly if you don't have a furry creature watching?

Looks great!

The Bakery is starting to take effect.

Can't wait to share with you all what this next game is about, but for now, I'm just going to be dropping hints and development shots.

You know it's going to be a great afternoon of pixel art making when you nail the Yerba Mate Mountain construction.

Give this fun platformer we've spent a year making a go! For the price of a coffee you can enjoy a challenging short game with a compelling story and music by me: store.steampowered.com/app/3870300/...

Unfortunately #Blanky launched too close to the #SteamAutumnSale to be included.

However it's pretty darn low in price anyway.

Consider dropping Blanky into your cart during your #Steam spending sprees and I'll be forever grateful.

Drawing a scene that's making me deeply nostalgic for chilly Autumn days playing football in my garden with my dad.

I guess the foggy walk this morning unlocked a core memory.

Work in progress

Any games in particular that inspired this project? Any the two of you used to play together back in the day?

Keep it up. Game looks really fun!

Foggy morning dog walk today.

Was hoping that the fog would scratch my itch to play #SilentHillF, however it's only heightened the drive.

Anyone out there who has played it, does it live up to the hype and reviews?

Love to see people on my friends list playing #Blanky

More experienced game devs, does this feeling ever go away?

If there are any #Streamers out there who fancy giving #Blanky a go on stream, GET IN TOUCH!

After the stream we did this week with www.twitch.tv/bigwynter I'm excited to do more!
