Finally finished re-decorating 🫟The Slime Zone🫟
Does it look pretty? Or is it too distracting?

After playing Silksong, I was awe-struck by the use of parallax to create depth and environments that felt alive. It inspired me to apply it to Firefly. What do we think? Cool enough to polish all the old levels like this, or should we focus on building new ones?

In FireFly, your Glow isn't just visual, it's your power! The faster you move, the brighter you shine. The brighter you shine, the bigger your boosts!

Released a short promoting FIREFLY this afternoon! Wanted to focus on showcasing the games mechanics, what do we think?

FIREFLY IS NOW ON STEAM 🤯😳
After a light fundraising push, FireFly has a public Steam page! Which just feels wild!

Wishlist here: store.steampowered.com/app/4002900/...

Wishlisting helps FireFly get discovered + gets you first in line when playtests open.

Was polishing up some new content updates, and my ADHD-ass impulsively pivoted to redesigning checkpoint visuals. Was the distraction worth it?

Made a thing for my local Smash scene! This fall’s invitational uses Twitch points for vote-ins. I made a Python → Google Sheets → JSON pipeline so stream widgets & sites show live results. Open source for democracy & for all who want!

When I first experimented with moving platforms, my initial attempt at allowing the player to conserve their velocity functioned by adding the platform's velocity to the player's velocity whenever they jumped...

They uh, don't work like this anymore.
