"Schattenjaeger" is coming along nicely. Mechanically everything is finished, but still a lot of decoration to do. (and SFX&Music). Pretty happy with the vibes so far. 😄

Steam Next Fest really kills Wishlist conversions. 5 of my games that didn't participate all have above 30% wishlist conversion and the two games that did participate have 6.5% and 8%. 🧐

I've added a hotkey to proceed to the second boss phase for debugging. Endless beheadings! 🤣

References can be incredibly helpful, especially when dealing with complex motion. 😅

See the whole animation in game in the comment. 📽️

I'm thinking about challenging myself to do a comedy adventure next... but I'm not sure, if I'm funny. I could put memes in there... memes are funny... right? 🤔😅

I think my games would be PERFECT for Fortnite!! Can't wait to explain the kids what a "Point&Click Adventure" is. 😆

#3157 A helpful tutorial
A digital drawing of one of those drawing tutorials that says 'don't do this, do this.' The drawing is of an almost naked middle-aged man doing a flying kick. The 'Don't do this' one has a bunch of areas circled and a cross under it. The 'Do this' one is exactly the same but without the circles and a tick instead of a cross. The text reads 'Needlessly adding red circles will ruin your art' and a smaller bit of text at the bottom reads 'Bonus tip! Add a tick under all your art so people think you did it right.'

Did you play Rollercoaster Tycoon or Sid Meier's Sim Golf? Then you might want to check out my #tycoongame "Jolly Putt". It's free on Steam. 😗

I still don't understand why ad targeting is so bad, when every social media recommendation algorithm is vastly superior (still bad). It can't be a lack of data, that's for sure. I just asked ChatGPT which products it would recommend to me based on my history and it was spot-on. #ads #technology

One of the more frustrating things in p&c adventure design is making sure there are no dead ends and then seeing people just expecting dead ends where there are none and then giving up on the whole game. 😭😄

Made a title screen for my in-development platformer. 😊 Yes, it's very much inspired by #Castlevania and Gabriel Knight. 😄

I wanted to know what the fuzz with Pumpkin Spice was about, as we don't have that here in Germany. A friend of mine hooked me up, after his last trip to the States. 😍 It tastes a lot like "Spekulatius" to me! 😅
