I used Inkarnate to design the overhead maps for my indie game. Here's a selection of the playable areas, including a screenshot of how they appear in games UI! 📍🗺️

I wish I could have spent more time with them, but generally they serve their purpose!

More UI work!

Still piecing together what this game *could* be. I'm in a prototype and lookdev stage to get a feel of things.

What do you think?

I recently bought a house! Which means gamedev has taken a back seat while I pursue decorating 🎨

Managed to sneak in some UI work though, how do you feel about this card selection stuff? 🤔

Working on a minor patch for the game. Using it as an opportunity to add Steam's Rich Presence feature!

Your friends will be able to see what you're up to at a glance from their friends list 🤗

I really adore videos that use tilt-shift techniques. Been trying to get a similar effect with this. Pushing the depth of field and dropping the framerate.

what do you think?

It's a neat idea and it's something I considered, however I realised it's actually against Steam policy to do this directly from the game...

Here's something I'm not sure I've posted on Bluesky before. Proprietary gamedev tools!

This is a screenshot of my questing node network that directly exports into Unreal Engine that determines quest dependencies. 🤓

What do you get when you cross...

❄️ Runescape with Narnia?
👨‍🌾 Stardew Valley with Isometric 3D style?
📚 Animal Crossing with deeper lore?

You get my game - Tales from The Dancing Moon! 💃🌙

Today I updated my game with some extra settings around screen resolution and fullscreen/window modes!

Plus a few bugfixes! 🐞

It's one of those things that for some reason get's overlooked, but I'm glad it's in now! 💻
