I told myself I wasn't going to participate in this year's Byte Off competition, but I still managed 2 do artwork for Pizza Portal. It was nice 2 team up with @artixgames.bsky.social & @raftronaut.bsky.social. So many good entries this year & we both were shocked that we won for Best Game. CG 2 all

Whoa, it's been a while. But no worries, I'm still alive. Worked on some art for Pizza Portal that will be submitted to this year's Byte Off 4. Was nice to work on a project with @artixgames.bsky.social

I don't like using Nxxt to do my pixelart nor in nesmaker. For now I've been using Pyxel edit. Unfortunately, you don't know if you over design until you try and convert it to the NES. As you can see the design almost didn't make it. I had to go in and make adjustments.

Development of the core room. Of course its not at its final design per-say until the time comes.

With @dalecoop.bsky.social & @raftronaut.bsky.social , we are finally making a full entry to Chaos Between Realms. Although I may come up with a new title of it.

Bernie from Troll Burner will be starring along side Maxx aka James, Jin's father from the original CBR.

It's been a little while since I've worked on a project. Let's just see what's gonna make it and what's going to be cut out.

It took over a year of hard work, and I couldn't be prouder to have been a part of this fantastic journey. 🛹 🐈

Last minute update to the wall paper texture in the Great Hall level of Storied Sword. The previous diagonal-heavy designed was raising all sorts of visual buzz from CRT monitors. This new design will make it much easier to track enemy motion while playing #nes #neshomebrew
