Here's the trailer for #Blanky

A young boy named Jacob journeys through a nightmarish world full of horrors.

With his trusty blanket "Blanky" by his side, Jacob must find a courage he never knew he had to face his biggest fear.

A weathered old lighthouse next to a weathered old man. My work for this afternoon, getting the finishing touches done before the weekend.

Such is game dev, every member of the team questioning their life choices until a beautiful game is made and everything is forgotten 😂

Winter Cabin @wintercabin.bsky.social · 6d

Thank you, been a frustrating back and forth of placing and REplacing pixels haha

Been playing around with this Tudor building for the best part of 2 weeks and trying to figure out what it was I wasn't liking about it.

Finally got to the stage where I'm feeling happy with it.

The #PixelArt struggle is real.

Working on a number of different projects at the moment, each with distinctive pixel art styles.

Enjoying this journey through vintage consoles and the limited capabilities/palettes.

Seeing as it's spooky season, here's a frankentype monster

As we close in on Spooky Season, the nights get colder and the fog gets thicker, why not stay in and help Jacob confront his traumas in our debut Game #Blanky.

It'll be a warmer and cosier use of your time than heading out this weekend, probably a bit cheaper too.

Finishing up this street before the weekend begins.

Needing some garden ideas but not sure I can just knock on my neighbours houses and ask for a look.

Store assistant: "I like your tash"

Me: "I'm not paying with cash"

...

That is how you take a compliment.

Back to #GameDev.

Seeing as it's #WishlistWednesday it'd be wrong not to mention our debut game #Blanky.

Please consider wishlisting (and even purchasing) Blanky so we can create more wonderful adventures.

Work in progress for the #Cinema

Still trying to find the absolutely ideal look, but I find it's better to get something down, see the overall project grow and then come back and give each bit that finishing touch.

Hope everyone has a great weekend.

I'm making a wholesome Pixel Town to try and rid my mind of what I saw in #MonstersEdGein on #Netflix.

JEEEEZ, tough watch.

Winter Cabin @wintercabin.bsky.social · 18d

The project today.

Finish up this Tudor style building for the posh part of town.

Are you even doing art properly if you don't have a furry creature watching?

Looks great!

It's gamedev fuel!
