I guess I should give this thing a try.
Hi, my name is Ana Catarina and I'm a gamedev based in Portugal, currently working as a gameplay programmer at ZA/UM.

I'm a multi-disciplined developer. I'm very passionate about game jams and making weird little artsy experiments ✨

Time to reveal what I've been working on for the past few months... BOLTSPITTER! In this frantic roguelike first-person shooter, you will face the hordes of hell, and your only friend is a cursed talking crossbow. Go forth and give them hell!

bonus comics:

4 panel comic

P1: a right hand draws a wavy stroke on a sketchbook page. A caption box up top reads "draw"

P2: the word "CREATE" dominates a panel with a black background, forming in the negative space. Various small shapes surround it.

P3: a lone simplified humanoid figure is on the bottom right of a another panel with a black background. A thought bubble forms above their head, the words "if not for others, then at least for yourself" within.

P4: The Earth dominates the bottom of the panel, with a sliver of space above it. Clouds swirl and boil across the Earth, which is the only element on the entire page coloured a pink-red. A caption box above reads "now, more than ever"

I am an indie comic artist! Printing costs go down with volume, so the more books I can order at once, the cheaper I can sell them for later. And you can help me get that kickstart and guarantee yourself one or more books by supporting my campaign!

Fellas, this is it!!

O Sarilho's volume 4 crowdfunding campaign is now LIVE 💥

This means that if you want to support an indie comic artist AND also get a nice comic book for you to read, you can check ppl.pt/en/sarilho4 and support the campaign before June 13th!

O Sarilho: Volume 4!

O Sarilho is a comic in which an alien gets shot in the face four times and for some reason that starts a war!

I love games that let me play out my deepest fantasies
for example, in wolfenstein

ana/catarina @anacat.itch.io · Feb 17

to be fair, I played the DS version as a kid, I had no idea the Wii/PC version was so different
