I spent some time improving the jump. It's snappier and more reliable now. Alot less floaty but still a little bit since Mimo is a ghost cat.

A screenshot of the game Microvania. Shows the player character jumping through a waterfall, with the waterfall reacting to the character. There's also an enemy shooting at the player, and some sort of collectable on the top right that the player cannot seem to reach.

I heard alt-text was important for visibility so im giving them a try. I usually struggle to make descriptions, so i formatted them into mini-stories, explaining the context behind each.

Lady, a small purple monster girl is exploring a somber coast full of bandits. The relentless waves and glacial rain remind her of the inescapable passage of time and of the fact that her cloak is not waterproof. Do not despair Lady, we all understand your pain.

Jupe, the mighty flamebearer has found herself in the flooded lair of the Merman, a great draconoid, renowned for its beautiful yet devastating voice.

Who will come out victorious of this altercation? The flame wielding demi-god, or the ferocious beast of the deep?

Lady is visiting a bakery, manned by Baal, the heart fairy. Baal is renowned for the addicting power of his cakes, a flavor that is said to be out of this world.

Sadly, Lady cannot try the cakes, for she has no mouth or stomach to eat. All she can do is longingly look at the food, and move on to another place.

The mighty Flamebearer, Jupe, stands before the one responsible for the uproar. Fengr, A tall and burly korugues, covered in untamed hair and wielding bone claws on his hand and feet.

Behind him, great beasts are howling in excitement, eager for a fight as their master riles the crowds, proclaiming himself the one to finally defeat the demi-god.

Jupe is not impressed, having seen far too many korugues believign themselves her equal. She ready herself for battle, intending to make this fool into an exemple that the flamebearer shall not be defied.

"4-of-a-kind! Read 'em and weep, boys!"
"Not so fast, bub!"
"What is it, doll-face?"
"Royal Flush, dirtbag."
[May or may not have been toned down for BlueSky, heh...]

A Scene from a security camera system, coming to my game in the next build.
#IndieDev #SoloDev #AdventureGameStudio

A security camera angle, looking at a table currently set up as a poker table. The game is Texas Hold-em. The Flop, Turn and River are, respectively, King of Diamonds, 7 of Spades and Jack of Clubs; 7 of Clubs; and Queen of Hearts. The losing two-card hand - a 7 of Hearts and a 7 of Diamonds - results in a four of a kind. The winning two-card hand - tossed on-screen by a hand from the right hand side of the frame - reveals an Ace of Clubs and a 10 of Diamonds, completing a Royal Flush.
