Second resolution test. I went from 640x360 to 320x180. Going with that instead, as I think I’m better off drawing 32x32 sprites instead of 64x64. Though, both 640x360 and 320x180 look good on a 1080p monitor. #gamedev #indiedev #indiegame #pixelart #GameMaker

Resolution test for my next game. Decided to use a Rayman sprite for size comparisons. #gamedev #GameMaker #pixelart #ScreenshotSaturday

Here’s my most-played games. Surprised Project x Zone 1 ended up in the “over 100 hours” section yet the second one was over 50 hours despite me being sure I played it for over 100 hours because of the New Game+.

I just got it and checked mine. Imagine my surprise when I found out it not only tracked my Switch and Switch 2 playtime, but also my 3DS and Wii U playtime and that I played Project x Zone 1 for over 100 hours.

Spooks vs Skulls Day 06. Finished designing the level so I added in death and time over conditions. All that’s left to do (aside from the title screen, credits, and instructions) is the final polish. #GameMaker #gamedev #indiedev #indiegame #pixelart

Spooks vs Skulls Day 05. Started designing a small level today and found out the music issue I was having was an HTML5 browser issue, so I don’t have to change the music. Only got 2-3 days left do finish this challenge, so I gotta get a move on. #GameMaker #gamedev #indiedev #indiegame #pixelart

Spooks vs Skulls Day 04. Fixed the enemies’ shots so that they only shoot one bullet at a time. Also decided on the size for the actual level, as you can see. #gamedev #indedev #indiegame #GameMaker #pixelart #ScreenshotSaturday

Spooks vs Skulls Day 02. The level tile set is done and there are now sounds. Unfortunately, I may be forced to change the music because MP3 files apparently don’t work with HTML5. #GameMaker #gamedev #indiegame #indiedev #pixelart

Started a new game today and I’m challenging myself to finish and release it in a week. So how about a spooky game for the Halloween season? Day 01 was about moving and aiming. And sprites, too. #gamedev #indiedev #indiegame #pixelart #GameMaker

Awwww! Poor Alien GlowBlob. He’s trapped in Cyberspace. You’re not gonna let him stay trapped there, are you? Help him get out by playing Glow, and make him happy.

Polygon, I’m pretty sure Project x Zone wasn’t made in Unity (or Ynity, for that matter) and I’m pretty sure this isn’t an official image. LOL!

Now before anyone says pixel art can’t be upscaled unless you do it like that, no. Not true. I made a Tails fangame that reused assets from the GBA Sonic games that’s designed for a 720p screen, and I upscaled them and they still look like proper pixel art.

Well, since it’s #portfolioday. I’m a (currently at least) solo game developer. Here’s four of the games I’ve worked on.

Since Glow is no longer an HTML5 game, I had to read controller support and the pause screen. #gamedev #indiedev #indiegame #GameMaker #pixelart
