Hello BlueSky! I'm Joana, a 🇵🇹 #gamedev!
I'm currently developing a Colony Sim + RPG game! Think RimWorld meets Fire Emblem! ⚒️🤖⚔️
In "Salve, Viriathe!" you play as the Lusitanians as they resist Rome's annexation of Iberia.
I stream its development every Tue-Fri on www.twitch.tv/sorcerystory! 📺

Hello everyone!
Just letting you all know, in case you missed the end of stream last Friday, that there will be no streams this week!
I'll be taking the week off to rest and come back next week fully recharged!

Villagers can now work without the need for specific buildings, meaning villages can be erected from nothing! Needs work, but happy with the results! 🛖

This is the Steam trailer for Star Spark that I'd been working on!
The game isn't done, but just having the store page is a big milestone for me.

Was refactoring something deep inside my engine's math lib, launched the game and it generated this amazing fractured island 🤯 Thought I've accidentally broken something, turned out my world generator can just do that 😅

SOO many features are being added in the new update. Hoping to release it next week. Gotta finish up some cosmetics and bug testing. I had so much refactoring to do. You get to customize your cursor, wallpaper, clicker, auto clicker, and autobuy bots. :)

During playtesting, players couldn't tell where they may place things. Now, invalid areas are highlighted. The new shader fits with the rest of the art style better than the blue one I was using. #screenshotsaturday #gamedev #indiedev #godot
