This is so good, it really feels like a real physical toy and the music is so catchy

Thank you for such a nice comment! Funny thing is, although the wide enemies might look more menacing, they are actually easier to deal with because its easy to get them in phase.

Thanks! My rough plan rn is fixing bugs I left behind, then daily leaderboards, then content (enemies, items, hazards, zones, etc.)

So I made the smallest game I could.

This is sapito, a tiny daily classic roguelike, with a new level every day. Super simple, but finished! My plan is to keep updating it over time.

It's been 5 years since my last release. I worked on awesome games at Nitrome and learned so much, so I thought my next solo game had to be amazing!

I hadn’t noticed, but each project I kept raising my expectations and project scope.

That was a trap, I had to scale down instead.

Finishing a Game As I work towards completing my own game, I've been thinking a lot about finishing projects in general. I've noticed that there are a lot of talented developers out there that have trouble finishing.....

I’ve always struggled with finishing projects, in the first half of this year I abandoned 11 games.

I started going to therapy to work through burnout and understand my process better.

This post by @mossmouth.bsky.social was also huge

The NPCs from 'Shovel Knight Dig: Wicked Wishes' DLC send you on a variety of side quests. We added several portraits so players can keep proper track of them all.

It's been quite fun to make official renditions of these beloved characters (and some newcomers to the cast too!).

I present you the Guild Hall!

By far the most demanding piece of BG art from 'Shovel Knight Dig: Wicked Wishes'.
I'm super glad to be able to share this after so long.
