I'm working on a new music for the Christmas event🧑🎄 in Crankstone 🤠. I'm not sure if it will suit the game but I did my best and I had fun with bells and jew harp
A bit late in my schedule but I hope to release the update before Christmas.
What do you think of the music? #gamedev #playdate #solodev

Last summer I was in Gamescom to meet partners and publishers. Amazing connections and great moments... Will it pay off? I finally edited the video...with 3 months late! No selfies though… you’ll see my face next time.

Trip to gamescom 2025
With 3 months late, here’s finally the video of my trip to Cologne for Gamescom 2025!
I went there to find publishers and partners.
I saw plenty of games, but rarely had time to actually play them.…

Working on a new song for my game for a Christmas event. Trying the imitome app to use voice to midi conversion. It's a bit difficult. I'll probably back to midi synth 😆 Anyway I'll try to mix western and christmas music.

Today I've increased the price of the Scrolling Enigma. I've long time hesitated between 4 and 5$. Getting tips on Itch and updating the game to enhance the experience confirmed my choice. Last time I made an update, it was during a sale so I forgot to raise. 🥲

This update is still not live on Catalog and fixes post halloween event crashes. I sent my post too early😅. I hope it will be live by tomorrow! This event was supposed to work until 13/11 and I never tested the day after believing it'll will back to normal.
New version of Crankstone is live. Now you can play the Halloween mode whenever you want! Also you have now some details on the different options in the menus #playdateConsole #playdate

I made a video of my process crafting some creatures of our game Alterfauna✨
I'm using watercolor and colored pencils, my scanner (aka my best friend), Photoshop and Spine
(sorry for the 1rst part's bad quality, I filmed with my shitty phone, I work at night and the light is horrible)

Surprise! I just released FTL - Lost Ship EP, a small collection of never before published FTL music, including live tracks, music that was cut from the game, and an expanded piece I made in 2025 based on one of the originals.

Fun to see my little #Playdate game The Scrolling Enigma on HowLongToBeat! Most players finish it in about an hour, but you can unlock all the clues quickly if you want which makes the guessing part easier. Every playthrough works just fine!
