Really interesting concept! Looking forward to see where you take this one

Leaning into the exploration/platformer vibe: the pinball game now have checkpoints. #pico8 #gamedev

Getting a bunch of work done on the editor and map data. There's still a bunch of things I want to add to it, but now to fix some of the logic issues that were not noticeable in A Short Bike.

Happy #Screenshotsaturday!

I'm still working on my #cozygame. I now have a fishing minigame, working and walking NPC's and finally an idea for a nice story. I will enjoy trying to make my farming/life sim feel distinct.

No. 1 : You will start without a place of your own.

The first version I playtested was absolute chaos! Four zombies plus the boss!

Boss fight is implemented! Still a couple of finishing touches to add to the game, but should be ready for release very soon!

Taking inspiration from Spelunky's King Yama boss fight, the zombie boss is now in-game and ready to throw hands!

Sprite drawn and implemented for the zombie boss! Next up, attack logic

the floatiest controls in the deep blue sea!

working on a port of my #picotron game Inky the Squid for #playdate @play.date

Zombies are still cool, right? Cover art WIP #pico8 #gamedev #pixelart #indiedev #indiegame

Seriously cool cover art! Are you planning on adding the giant zombie into the game?

Main gameplay for Zombies Ate My Landlord is done!

Now, to add a boss fight...

Thanks Rémy! Making music has always been one of my favourite parts of gamedev so I’ve really enjoyed delving into the Pico-8 music tracker

Trying the new player movement and a quake level running on #Playdate
With only a d-pad and two buttons, it's not easy to design 3D controls that feel good, but I think I'm getting there.
I also started experimenting with jumping. I mean, Jumping Flash and Metroid Prime made it work, so why not? 😄

Thanks! :)

Haha thanks Jack! Was aiming for something spooky and upbeat to match the gameplay so glad to hear I’ve got the vibe nailed down

Thanks!

Made some music for my Pico-8 zombie game

Managed to squeeze the arranngement into 3 audio channels, so still got the 4th available for SFX

This is the smallest run-cycle I've ever animated but I have to say I'm quite smitten #gamedev #pico8

FINALLLYYY

Think I've finally settled on the UI for the game over screen

Lost count of the number of times I've tweaked this already. I'll likely tweak it again down the line

I am playing with a new prototype to distract myself from the main game... idk brains? #pico8 #gamedev #indiegame #idiegamedev

Looking great! Restricting the player's view was a nice addition

Can't pay homage to BurgerTime without a pepper powerup! Although, this one is a little spicier!

#pico8 #indiedev #gamedev

Added a speed boost powerup to my zombie game. Shown as a lightning bolt because running shoes are really hard to draw at this resolution

#pico8 #indiedev #gamedev

Spot on! BurgerTime meets Zombies Ate My Neighbors is what I’m aiming for

as a bonus, they look cool with the sonar effect too!

This seems like a really interesting mechanic!

Can the player move while their sonar is active? So players could sort of “dimension jump” through the red environment using the revealed blue environment?
