Hello, bluesky!

I am an independent game developer, professional Dungeon Master, and contractable artist. If you're part of a very select group of people, you may know me from my work on Star Ruler 1/2 and the upcoming VN Astral Ascension.

Looking forward to sharing my work!
#hello #introduction
Aaaand artsprint for the day done on that commissioned PNGtuber from earlier. Still a ways to go but they're starting to come together nicely.

Jumping in with two feet into artfight but have no idea how this will go or what I'm doing or how to do it right. Aaaaaaaaa

The kingmaker group so far! (Maybe more character portraits coming, need to add that kobold's hand back oops) #ocsky #pathfinder #pf2e #kingmaker #pngtuber #vtuber #art #clipstudio

Commissioned to make PNGTuber-plus ready portraits for my paid Kingmaker game and I'm really liking how this one's turning out. Art style inspired by Hades and Darkest Dungeon. #pathfinder2e #pf2e #kingmaker #ocsky #art #portrait #clipstudiopaint #pngtuber #vtuber

Finished converting all of my game event scripts into JSON. So much nicer to work with! (Also took a pass at making events a little clearer. Need to make a better dice icon though to represent 'number of successes required')

Well, that was uncomfortable and took a lot longer than I expected. BUT! Now I can fully import and export from my nodegraph to JSON. This'll be such an enormous time saver for this project.
Thanks #godot! #indie #strategy #rpg #gamedev #toashandember

NodeGraphs are pretty easy to set up in Godot. This same tree would take up four files in my project; now they can all live in one.
Going to take some elbow-grease to integrate but it's so much more fun to work with than trying to do this in the Inspector.

Burnt some midnight oil to make sure that investigators die when they are killed. Next step: burning the world if no investigators remain to save it.

When it's 2025, you sit down to dev, and your UI suddenly hits you in a very different way.

I have no idea how anyone's going to stream this game but at least the effects look nice on my end haha

Also getting *dangerously* close to having full gameloops and really-playable-content in here.

Sometimes it's the little things that give joy in game development. I'm just sitting here tweaking the particular sound, length, and transition type for hiding/showing the news panel.

Many openings and closings have been had. I've tried 8 combinations so far!

Only 3 Donationware copies of To Ash and Ember left on itch.io! Grab you one if you're interested in checking out the early alpha of the game. If you'd rather wait for it to be done, wishlist on Steam!

To Ash & Ember is a challenging gothic roguelite horror RPG about imperfectly saving the world. Select your pawn, lead them through terrors and tomes, and build them into heroes to face off agains...

If you thought the eldritch and the abyssal were the only sort of nightmares you'd face in To Ash and Ember, beware: Feudal healthcare is arriving soon in a 'The City' near you.

Thank you all so much! I didn't expect to get this many this fast! Have some sketch-art of the reclusive librarian demonstrating the late policy for book checkouts from the Archives!

To celebrate the fact I can now have dungeon layouts of arbitrary shape and form: the last level of the sewers in the next version of To Ash and Ember will be a genuine maze.

GlobalBus is paying off dividends. Fast 30-minute feature add: any source that deals damage to the player now shows it through sound and visuals.

One of the things I've felt has been missing throughout To Ash and Ember is a display which shows your dice rolls. That's now something I'm proud to include (as well as an option to skip the display of them).
