An important part of game development is being open to iterating, like adjusting the layout of a town when testing shows that players get confused with where things are. Sometimes, this means a scene can change over ten times- like our town of Krkanov has!

Anna is the beloved maid of Castle Dornstein. She’s also a great source of local knowledge, and it might be wise for the player to get on her good side…

Working with Daragh is a dream! Check out this cool closeup from our upcoming game Castle Dornstein. @digitalmosaicgames.bsky.social
I wanted to make a thread explaining how I put together a complex closeup scene for our point and click adventure game, Castle Dornstein, using @aseprite.org and @makham.itch.io's excellent Pixel Composer.

This scene takes place about midway through the game. Pretty dramatic. Let's take a look 🧵👇
