@IsaacOrloff! The idea of breaking your environmental details into forms of DIFFERENT SIZES is the key to varied, visually interesting designs :) #howtodraw #gamedev #animationdev #gameart #animation

Ireland inspired adventure game idea I’ve been working on. Centred on exploring and restoring ancient shrines.

Reworked and cleaned up the code that adds overtiles that work to transition between land types.
So now I can have grassy areas that transition to Dirt/Sand in Caves and Ruins instead of just the Island surface.

Hello, let me introduce you to my game Knights of Arabella, it is a Top-down, 2D, Pixelart, Story focused, Action-Adventure game.

The game is inspired by The Legend of Zelda, and uses some design ques from Zelda, but does it's own thing.

Figure I should probably post some older GameDev stuff since we have videos now!
These are my Goblins

Classes have officially started back up again, so development might slow a bit. But I'll do my best to keep working on it every day, Just wanted to give y'all a heads up!

The great thing about living in Northern Ireland is the abundance of ancient ruins and Neolithic sites dotted across the landscape, and a quick hop across the border into Ireland is a gateway to even more! 🍀💚

I know that I don't post my daily coding posts here, but I wanted to celebrate my 1000th day of coding.

Here, I've learned how to gradually zoom

I have come a long way since day one, and I will continue to code and learn for the days to come

If I could make any type of adventure game, it would be one that celebrates nature and our connection to it
