They must be running early builds of my game Gaia.

If you like seeing big environment art upgrades like this, follow along and tell me which Amsterdam landmark you’d love to see in pixel art next.

Pixel-art scene of the old Magere Brug drawbridge in Amsterdam spanning a calm canal. The small white wooden bridge is split in the middle with two raised drawbridge arms supported by cables. A girl in a pink dress is mid-jump across the slightly open center section. Stone canal walls sit on both sides, and the still water below reflects the bridge and pale green sky with soft clouds, creating a symmetrical mirror image.

Pixel-art view of the Magere Brug (Skinny Bridge) in Amsterdam. The narrow white drawbridge spans a canal, with detailed railings, support cables, and traffic lights at the side. A small character in a pink outfit walks across the center of the bridge, while the bridge structure and cables frame the scene against a pale sky with soft clouds above calm water.

Finally swapped out my old Magere Brug (Skinny Bridge) pixel art for a new, much larger and more true-to-life version based on the real bridge in Amsterdam. Canvas is 1920×1080, which is… 2,073,600 pixels. Just casually painting an entire HD screen one pixel at a time. #pixelart #amsterdam #2dart

Well I'll be sure to pick your brain. I am sure there are plenty of things I am not doing properly at the moment. Especially when it comes to Marketing, Brand and PR..so...yeah.

Of course! We have to support each other. There isn't enough support in this world.

We are still looking for games to showcase tonight. So if you have anything playable, that you want to have shown in my stream tonight. Contact me. If you can be present during the stream for any questions that might pop-up, that would be awesome! #indiegames #appreciation #indiedev

That sounds awesome, I don't do Minecraft really. I mean, I used to, in build mode. If there is anything I can help you with, by all means let me know. For those of you who don't know Daniel yet, go drop him a follow. You won't be disappointed.

Bluesky feels best for me when people actually talk to each other. Lately it’s felt a bit quiet here - let’s change that together.
Reply with (if you want ofc):
– what you’re making
– why it matters to you
– one thing you’re struggling with
I’ll follow a few, and I hope others do too 🤝

By all means let me know when you have the devlog ready. Would love to see it. And yes, weather conditions always speak to the imagination don't they? But to convey them convincingly is quite hard.

Yeah, have been recording more on the process and the actual coding for the next stage. I will probably have to do something with the rain sprite to make it a little more clear. Working at the moment to make the rain interact with environment and player.

I've created a tiny little 1 minute devlog? youtube.com/watch?v=jgyf... The result of a poll I did a while ago, was that you wanted to see me do Devlogs, this probably is just halfbaked, but it shows the beginning of my weather system. Let me know what you think.

Twitch Twitch is the world

We are about to go live on twitch.tv/dragonspirit... to work on #Gaia live. Come join and have fun with me!

2/2 Family man first, developer/streamer second. Always ❤️
Either way, I’ll make sure the stream happens and that your game gets the love it deserves ✨

Let’s celebrate indie devs together!

Drop a link to your game (and a short pitch if you want!) in the replies or DMs 🙌
⚠️ Small heads-up & full transparency:
February 2nd is also my wife’s birthday 🎂
So there’s a chance I might move the stream this one time.

Games exist because of connection.
Creators dream. Players feel.
Both matter. You matter.
Take one small step today—that’s enough.

December is Poseidon’s month.

Not because the sea is calm —
but because it never stops moving.

Even storms shape the world.
Keep going. 🔱🌊

This morning I was nearly in an accident. Five centimeters made the difference. Even after a rotten night, my reflexes kicked in right when it mattered.

We’re often stronger and sharper than we think. If I can do it on a bad day, so can you.

#MythicMonday ⚔️🌊
Today I’m designing the Poseidon/Atlantis level for Gaia.
Most of Atlantis sits safely above sea level… until the boss fight, when Poseidon strikes the earth with his trident and the whole world floods.
What would you add to pre-flood Atlantis?

After...

I reworked some of the level design of Atlantis a little bit for Poseidon. Still not the tileset, but the dithering in the sky and mountains, as well as the reflection has been addressed. Now looks much cleaner, look at before and after. Before...
