aaa that makes me so happy to hear, I was really just starting out back then and I tried so hard to make the art look in line with the teams. I don't post much on twitter anymore but thought it'd be nice to start over here ☺️

♢ Fen ♢ @salmikawolf.bsky.social · 5d

Yesss ☺️

Thank you!! It's so cool to see what has changed with time but see an overall theme of how my style looks even in different contexts ✨

I joined @ustwogames.co.uk 9 years ago!

I'm so proud of the work I've been able to do during my career so far with them, and so happy I get to make games with the best bunch of people.

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.

Just popped a new game prototype demo I'm working on called Bug Chain on itch!

ianzell.itch.io/bug-chain

Its a sandboxy management simulation sort of game where you direct little bugs to build their houses and try and balance a food chain/ecosystem.

hope some people find it interesting!
