Throwing this out for fun: Anyone fancy getting a credit on a published #ZXSpectrum game? I need enemy sprites for my game but I don't enjoy creating them. Each 2 frames of animation, 16x16 and 32x16. Example below. No money, just for fun! #pixelart #indiedev #8bit

Making progress in "Dungeon Decks" for #ZXSpectrum. Minimap working, with wondering monsters appearing and roaming freely, triggering combat when they meet the player.

MAGIC TOWER

Equal fourth place on our list goes to this platformer from Seagal that Gordon described as "brilliant and charming" in issue 25!

Finished writing my 2nd and 3rd pieces for @crashmicro.bsky.social this month. One left to go, but for now I'm settling down to have a little play of Arlo by the excellent Packobilly! #zxspectrum #retrogaming

People being rude about the scrolling in SCION. "Jerky", "Slow", "Jarring". Ok wiseguys, let's see you do better. I made this in a couple hours this evening. Yes that's 6 layers of parallax on #MPAGD on a goddam #ZXSpectrum. Beat that if you can! 😝 #retrogaming #indiedev #8bit

A lesson I'll teach my kids: loyalty means nothing. Your interests might align with others' for a while, but no-one is ever really on your side. Remember, kids: you're on your own out there. #lifelessons #survival
