Tightened up a lot of the rooms I've already made and did some work on the newer areas. Lots of new sprites to draw today.

Man real life is getting in the way right now and I'm having a hard time remembering what I want to do with this game, but at least I've added some stuff - enemy behavior respects platforms and gravity now and there are some more platform types.

Finally got the koopa working. Now I just need to get it to walk around and we should be good to go there. #gameboy #gbstudio #indie #indiedev

I'm still working on some basic enemies, such as the original koopa (these will be replaced with original enemies later). I appreciate platformers more now because it's a lot just to do basic things. #gameboy #gbstudio #indie #indiedev

This is my progress so far with Legendary Lorenzo Land. The Mario assets are placeholders for now. I have it so you can take damage, stomp on an enemy, and lose your power up status. Enemies also will just walk off a cliff for now. #gameboy #gbstudio #indie #indiedev

GameSetBoy @gamesetboy.bsky.social · 12d

I got the currency system up and running. Each game will cost a different amount, and subtract that number from your total earned money. Legendary Lorenzo Land is supposed to be the most accessible one, so I only made it a dollar. #gameboy #gbstudio #indie #indiedev #retro #gbc

Happy #screenshotsaturday!

Worked on Project Blip on and off this week. Added basic cutscenes (the same one I've been using for Toothpick Blade), some camera shake, and face graphics (which will be for important characters).

Happy #screenshotsaturday! We're working on a post jam version of GRIME TIME, and that means we're adding an Arcade mode where you can spend the money you earn in game to buy lives for other games. One is going to be called "Legendary Lorenzo Land." Ignore the placeholder music and Mario sprite lol.

A screenshot of Chico's Rebound. In a marble-floored room, Chico the chipmunk looks towards a pink-headed flower creature. A floating bee with a red bow to the left has a dialog box reading "I'm Beeatrice and this is Chico, who are you?"

Introducing a new #plugin for #GBStudio- Talking Actors and Dialogue Prompt Actors!

It's great for adding flair to visual novels and cutscenes. Talking Actors animate when dialogue is being written, and Dialogue Prompt Actors animate when dialogue is waiting for a button press.

Just reposting this in case some people missed it, but my GB Jam 13 entry, “Zack Scrubbs in GRIME TIME”, is finished and I’d love feedback! It features the RTC and actually times you to see if you complete the game in 30 minutes or less! #gbjam #gbstudio #gameboy

A lot of work done today, but the big thing is the game now tracks which doors you have already opened, so when you re-enter the room they stay open!
