The major breakthrough with this update is that I was able to web build for Godot C#! This is something that hasn't been possible in Godot 4.0 (and still isn't in the official release), but its thanks to the work of Raul Santos and some of the other folks on the Godot github that made this possible!
As a Halloween treat I released and update to my little tetris roguelike, Draftula! It's got new art, tons of new content, and most importantly, a build you can play in your browser!

October is almost over and I 3D learned my way into making a game (though It's actually 50% billboarded 2D sprites)

Set sail on a voyage full of pirates, dark magic, and the thrill of discovery! Draco and the Seven Scales is an action-adventure RPG that harkens back to an age of top down adventures and lovable pixel art.

⚔️ The indie studio I work at dropped a silly lil' pirate game! ⚔️
It's a turn-based strategy game about pirates who keep backstabbing each other.

There's treasure and several playable characters and it features my art. Find it on Steam, and fair winds to ye! ⛵

THIS BE MUTINY is a game about swashbuckling pirates are on an epic treasure hunt! Until it inevitably devolves into mutiny. But if you can survive the backstabbings and betrayals, the treasure will be all yours!!!

If you're coming to PAX west I hope you can give it a try!

For the GMTK jam this year I made a little Tetris roguelike called Draftula.

Build up the castle by strategically placing rooms and see how high you can make it before the hero comes to ruin your fun!
