I made art for a video game where you make art! 🤯

If you’re at #Polaris in Hamburg this weekend, stop by @studiomonoblok.bsky.social in the Indie area to check out their wonderful game "Earthlings"
- and while you're there (if it’s not too loud around the booth 😅) enjoy some of my sounds 💙

I appreciate you noticed. We had about 7 major iterations. It was a lot of time to clean it up. Don’t give up! 💪

Erik ☀️ Earthlings @erikdozsa.bsky.social · Sep 4

Thanks! 🙌 It’s in the making for about 13 months now.

Want to be a terrible boss?
In Earthlings, you can.

Our game is built on inexperience.

Convincing, isn’t it?

Hear that, #ScreenshotSaturday? Tis the siren's song of #Moonshell_Island that keeps this #indiedev sailing on. Respite won't come until I reach the destiny that calls me.

Zeljko Kos - Making Pompeii: The Legacy @zzeljkokos.bsky.social · Aug 30

It’s hard to believe it’s been almost a year since I first revealed Pompeii: The Legacy as a solo dev.

Thank you all for supporting me on this journey through development, we’re now just a few weeks away from release! 🙏🌋
