Here's what the first area in our game looks like! Hope you liked games from the late 90s, because that's what you're getting.
What do you think this game is about?🤔

Recently been working on some screen and particle effects! Does anyone recognise that swoosh sound?

I spend a lot of time visiting the British Isles via Google street view, doing research and getting reference for the game. Sometimes I play roulette and drop somewhere completely random. You never know what you'll get.

Three armour-clad brothers in arms stroll through a park.

Let me show you a very special prop from our game, and walk you through how it was made (please don't tell others my secret technique)

Adventure game lovers should definitely play The Drifter by @dave.powerhoof.com, which I finished recently and thought was excellent. An actiony take on the genre which propels you through the story and I really loved the dark, pulpy Australian setting.

Francisco González - ROSEWATER OUT NOW! @grundislav.games · Jul 21

Rosewater, my Wild West adventure game, has been out nearly 4 months and has been very well-received!

But I also feel like it’s reached a fraction of its potential audience.

If you can spare a repost and help spread the word, it would be greatly appreciated!

What's a point & click game without cursors for pointing and clicking?
Figured these should be pre-rendered sprites to fit with the crunchy 90s aesthetic - what do you think?

Seeing a screenshot from Nomad Sculpt makes me really curious about the workflow!

Here's some concept art for some weirdos you'll meet early on in your adventure. No, they're not Simpsons, maybe I should call this style Slumpsons.

Look at this glorious UI rendering that games from yesteryear (and HighFleet) sported!

SLUMPS @slumps.net · Jun 29

Was doodling some ideas for game UI. I'm a fan of that retro maximalist aesthetic, but maybe it's too controversial for this day and age!

Great, now I'm hungry for ramen

Have you played our game Quazar's Claim yet? It's a quick and frantic arcade miner - keep the drill fueled and collect those tasty gemeralds without being crushed to death. How deep can you descend?

Maybe people would be interested in the full HD pic as a wallpaper? I'm down.

SLUMPS @slumps.net · Jun 15

Last year I painted this piece of key art even though at that point the game was mostly just some ideas in a document. It's cool to get those ideas into something presentable you can show to people early.

There's definitely some pointing and some clicking going on

I didn't have anything to end the vid about Pip, so yes, I did paint this real quick for one single gag so here's the time lapse

The design direction was something like "a mouse swallowing a big walnut"

Introducing the main character of our game!
He's just a little fella who is excited to go out into the big world on his own for the first time and I'm sure nothing will go wrong and traumatise his small developing brain.
