the big reveal! the big reveal! 🤭

Pas Croyable Production @pascroyable.bsky.social · Jul 23

🌟 Hi! We are Tris, Loan and Solenn from Pas Croyable Production: an indie game studio focused on short productions made in small team. Above all, we're looking to create tiny, accessible and impactful games always inspired by childlike wonder!
🦉 We are working on our first game Spiriki: Tiny Island

The team of Pas Croyable Production. We are drawn with a multi-colored crayon effect, just like the one we used when we were kids. The three of us are all walking to the left. Tris, our game designer and programmer; Loan our 2D artist and animator, Solenn our environment and tech artist. There are tiny scribbles all around us

This slide presents our first game Spriki: Tiny Island.
There is the game pitch, three rough sprites of our wind spirit and a screenshot of how the game is looking at the moment. A magical owl surrounded by a very green island with a few 3D props on it : a direction sign, a lamp, a magical book, a broken arch and a floating magical altar.

You start with an island in ruins. Clean up the ground for a fresh start! You can always use those relics from another time to decorate your island. Who doesn’t love the charm of old stones? 🌟

A visual presenting a selection of ruins you can find in Spiriki: Tiny Island. It's two walls, a broken pillard and a mysterious ground circle. There are some plants and moss growing on the stones.

Windlet is not the only spirit taking care of the island.. who might this tiny cheeky little guy be ? ⭐

A teasing for the second spirit of Spiriki. You can only see their shadow with a spiky round head, two rounds on the side (maybe their ears), and a long tail creating a tiny round at the head of it. They seem to have the same hat with a star at the top of it as Windlet. The frame is orange for this character, evoking their element.

Meet Windlet, the wind spirit. 🍃⭐
Always serene and calm, they find peace in keeping the island clean by swiping the floor. Their duvet is light but yet, very fluffy. ☁️

being a gamedev definitely means learning something new every single day

Pas Croyable Production @pascroyable.bsky.social · 27d

Yesterday, we had a meeting to look up some very serious information. We promise you...it's some crucial research for Spiriki. Still shocked to learn that monkeys don't do "oo ee oo aa aa ting tang walala bing bang" 🐵

#indiedev

a screenshot of a google search with the quote "contrary to popular belief, "oo ee oo aa aa ting tang walala bing bang" is NOT a monkey noise but in fact a witch doctor sound."

I've been thinking about it lately too. I left for obvious reasons, but I feel like it still holds such a dominant position in terms of contacts/visibility/... while Bluesky is losing momentum, it's a vicious circle. 😵‍💫

ive said it before and ill say it again

a tumblr post by sewerfight

my friend was testing perfumes out at the store and she sniffed a bottle and announced "ngl this bitch kind of sucks" The girl at the counter suddenly looked really sad, and my friend was like "I'm sorry, I wasn't talking about you." And the girl looked up and said "No don't worry, I didn't think that, but I just crushed a ladybug with my shoe" We both took a peak over the counter. she'd stepped on a red m&m.

Working hard on Wild Cosmos, and getting closer to the end.

I want this small world to feel alive and vibrant.

I'm a single person behind this project and if that's the kind of games you like, sharing it and wishlisting helps me greatly.

It's fun to explore different ways to decorate the island 🌟

An example of decoration with a small part of the island packed with lovely items: a tent in the center, fences to close the area, a hammock, pots, and lamps. There are stones pavement on the floor to guide the eye!

And to think that just a few months ago I didn't know how to code at all 🥹 now we have our little baby (and more to come!!) roaming around an almost entirely customizable island

Just make it exist first 🦉🍃
Taking a few steps back really helps to see the progress we made in a few months ✨🌱

#indiedev #gamedev

Our participation to the "just make it exist first; you can make it good later" trend. It shows how the visuals from our game Spirki: Tiny island evolved. From basic island make with blocks and dull colors to our colorful full of life island with plants, a cloudy bright sky and a few items.
