We're still new here and setting up!

Account run by a small team of two aspiring indie game devs: GyD the programmer and Bronwynn the artist. Check out our output over the years at https://sunforge.itch.io !
Commander Keen, I think, most specifically

This gives me some strong DOS era gaming vibes

Did you miss the new trailer from a few days ago?

nice to see more folks going for that HD2D aesthetic!

this looks cute!

Oh, I almost forgot! This is a rebuild from scratch of a game jam project we did three and a half years ago. You can still find the original 3-day version on our itch page! It's a liiiittle busted though haha

I think last time I opened the project (yesterday) was exactly day 250 of development, actually. Fun milestone!

But yeah when we say we've been working on this game for 2 years, the "on and off" part is implicit. Damn you, normal person job I have to do to support my hobby game dev activities!

*of those 2 years, about 40% of the days (so... about 9 months out of 24) were actually spent on development. Ah, the joys of indie developing <3

I haven't posted anything on Spectral Express on this account yet, but might as well use this opportunity to, haha

handwaving away a response for a specific answer with "you know what I mean" isn't really constructive. I think it is a worthwhile discussion to be had to try and determine at least in what neighborhood the "indie" line should be drawn.
November 6, 2025 at 10:07 PM
Wouldn't that be confusing, considering "indie" is just short for "independent" already?
November 6, 2025 at 10:03 PM
I agree based on vibes of what an indie game SHOULD be, however, can you give a solid definition of "indie game" for the benefit of a non-vibes based settlement to this argument?

I'm glad the people in this group are not just quiet fence-sitters, like many other content creators in the gaming space

Lots of people forget it's more about art style and direction tbh

No amount of number crunching graphical power is gonna cure your bad art direction

What are the chances you can do a Leon kennedy and shoot the dynamite out of the air 😆

How are you gonna carry your entire team if you don't have seats installed

Wouldn't say weird haha, just good natured poking fun at using the words 'cozy' and 'murder' in the same context
November 1, 2025 at 2:24 PM
Ah damn, not me misreading it as "guiding a series of chicken" for some reason lmao
November 1, 2025 at 9:09 AM
premise reminds me a bit of Abe's Odyssey
November 1, 2025 at 9:08 AM
Cozy murder? 🤔
Also, I see those persona influences, haha
Good luck!
