I added a cute little feature, where Kaguya and Jade and can talk to each other with a little speech bubble on the bottom of the screen, so they can interact without halting gameplay!

Working on a new character??

Only characters I've got in-game right now are Jade and Kaguya, so I think it is time.

While working on my last game, Panoptia. I never noticed that the player's move speed was too fast, since I was so accustomed to the speed after years of development.

I wonder, is Apogee's movement excessively fast too? It doesn't feel like it to me, but I'm the dev!

Working on a tileset, I want to make a ton of different color variations of the tileset. Someone know a way to replace colors in Gamemaker...?

Working some more on this tileset. I think it looks less repetitive and easier on the eyes, but it doesn't feel as rocky as the original...

Work must still be done!

Added a little detail where when you land from a spin pound, little stars pop out!

Updated my carrd to have a page on Apogee. Check it out!

#gamedev #indiedev
Screenshot of enricosut.carrd.co, showing the page on Apogee, my upcoming game. It says: APOGEE Started on: October 16th, 2024 Release Date: ??? An astronaut named Kaguya crash landed her ship on the Moon and meets Jade, a Moon rabbit. Together, they will work together to safely get Kaguya back home to Earth before she runs out of oxygen. Follow development on my Bluesky! The page then shows a video and screenshots of the game.

A problem I am running into is that whenever I want to show screenshots of Apogee's vertical slice, every image feels same-y. I need a second biome to spice things up visually...

Working on a boss arena...

Large room in my game with bushes, platforms, and space to fight a fearsome foe.

working on a new tileset, and I don't know how to make a tileset not look so repetitive??

I'm working on a vertical slice of the game. There will be a boss fight at the end of it, though I don't think it's gonna be a boss that makes it to the final game. What fearsome beast would be in a red forest on the Moon?

#gamedev #indiedev #pixelart
Jade and Kaguya stand in front of some bushes in a red forest, with 3 birds next to them. There is tall red bamboo surrounding them.

Tried a makeshift room system that turns my large room into smaller sections. Somewhat paradoxically, splitting it up into smaller rooms makes the world feel much bigger. I really like it. Only issue is that the level isn't designed for this. Do I gotta make a new map?

not much to really update on today, I haven't been getting a ton of work done, been busy with school and other projects. Here's Jade and Kaguya hanging out.

After progressing through the world enough, you may find some upgrades to Kaguya's jets. Such as one that allows you to jump out of a hover to get an extra vertical boost!

If Kaguya doesn't have space to land next to Jade, she will hover behind her using her jetpack!

Jade is standing on the ledge of a platform, and Kaguya is hovering behind her above the gap.

I added some leaves to the trees, but something about it looks off... Thoughts?

Apogee is the point in the orbit of the Moon that is at the greatest distance from Earth.

This will play an important part in the game's story, you'll just have to wait and see... 😉

Logo of my game Apogee. It features a moon replacing the O in the title, a large green star, an orange star, and smaller black stars behind the text.

Man, I am just not a fan of how the parallax background in my game looks... I'll probably change it.

What should be in the background of a forest on the Moon?

#gamedev #indiedev #pixelart
Screenshot from my game, which shows the parallax background, which has trees, red bamboo, and a starry sky. The screenshot is in a forested area of the Moon.
