In this month letter I share four filters I pass my pixel art through to give them more nostalgic and retro appeal. These are tips that will be useful to you also if you plan to make a modern retro game! #pixelart #gamedev #gbstudio #retrogames #snailmailclub

Sketch of site layout
Current site progress
Making hobby websites is so cool. I've been working on this one lately. It's for a customisable virtual pet you can include on your site in an iframe.
This is how it started (sketch before colour research, I'm so sorry) vs how it's going. Still need to tie up some loose ends before it goes live.

I'm not very good at music so I have always relied on friends, but I'd like to improve so this is great!
I have to try this process, thanks for sharing!
I always start with harmony when making chiptunes.
Looping chords set the mood for the whole song 🎶
Once that feeling is there, the melody comes much easier.
How do you usually start a track?

Heyo! I decided for this year’s snail mail club letters I will also do an audio reading. Which can be enjoyed free by all members of the club or downloaded in audio and pdf form for $3 if you just want to hear one letter. These letters are designed to help you on your #indiegamedev journey!
If you are making a #gbstudio game that you anticipate will be released in 2026, I want to see it? Please share!
