Had to take a break to not burn out completely, but we're still working on this!
The ledge jumping is a bit hacky, but it works. In a more serious game, I'd probably spend a lot of time trying to figure out how to implement this more robustly
#indiegamedev #EscapeFromSunnytown #NaGaDeMon
Alright, first area done! Hopefully the other 11 main areas will get done tomorrow.

Everything's set up now, so let's fucking goooooo

I had a few #ttrpg design goals at the start of the year.
Get Tales from the Cockpit to Print:✅ www.drivethrurpg.com/en/product/4...
PocketQuest 2025:✅ www.drivethrurpg.com/en/product/5...
Publish Another Transit Mission:❌
The Cog That Remains Development:✅
Slay the #NaGaDemon: ❌
3/5 ain't bad.
The main components are lined up, so now it's time to put it all together.
Unsurprisingly, we missed NaGaDeMon, but we'll finish the game in the next couple of days.

I don't have the energy to properly promote it right now, but Tricks and I released the alpha of the TADC TTRPG yesterday. Please give it a look and tell us what you think; we would love to hear what you have to say. norbez.itch.io/the-amazing-...

Wrote over 1000 words of the #TADCttrpg today! We're so close to release now! www.patreon.com/posts/bezs-p...

Item menu is done, which means that most of the really big stuff is done now. Tomorrow: Smaller menus tomorrow, including the ability to use items on monsties, and then we're building the game.
Video proof, including WIP music that gets mangled by the windows capture tool.
#NaGaDeMon #Indiegamedev
Whole day for one screen, but at least it was a huge piece. From here on out, each piece shot be a lot less effort.

Last monster on the monsti-list! Here is Phistaro! The pharao monsti - it can use "Strength" to push stones. Very handy in a spooky glitch dimension, like Sunnytown!
Star finished more menu stuff. Follow us! 💖

You only really realize how broken and sort of impressive the Gen 1 menus are when you try to make them yourself.
Stuff just goes wherever, but then the menu box sizes are dynamic to accomodate the moves and even move names that are wider than usual.

Despite your hunger, you document your kills in an attempt to cling to your fading humanity.
The more you can document, the more you can deny the beast.
Paint a picture, but don't get bogged down. Keep the words flowing.
Think about how you are hero or villain or both.
#TTRPG #NaGaDeMon
If anyone wants advice on how to make games with no money and no time, hmu. Flattening the perceived Player > GM > Designer hierarchy and demystifying the processes is something I love about Edinburgh Indie Gamers, #NaGaDeMon, and @groundhogplay.bsky.social.
Wrote almost 800 words for the #TADCttrpg ! Yay! www.tumblr.com/norbezjones/...

Game three of my #NaGaDeMon output is a short solo journaling game, 5-min-masquerade.

Halfway through my third week of #NaGaDeMon and I've barely done any work on my #ttrpg Coven. I've just begun doing character creation.
Okay, I have built an itch page, and put a bunch of old projects on sale.
Grab some things I've made and love for cheap, or help yourself to Giant Robot Writers' Room for free! #ttrpg #NaGaDeMon

I have been very bad about checking and posting on here, but want to turn that around. What better way than to excitedly post that I finished my #NaGaDeMon game.
After 2 weeks of struggling, a new idea struck. Now I just need to put together an itch page and share it with the world!
Yesterday's #NaGaDeMon & #Pillowrimo progress is good! I've written almost 9k words this month and am aiming for a new goal of 15k! Also, I did good work on the #TADC TTRPG! So yay! www.tumblr.com/norbezjones/...
A little more progress on #EscapeFromSunnytown
Setting up all the menus is going to be a bit of work, but we'll get there.

Next monster on the monsti-list! Here is Anubice! the frost anubis monsti - it can use "Freeze" to freeze the water. Very handy in a spooky glitch dimension, like Sunnytown!
Star made cute game sprites and more menus. Follow us! 💖

Here's Week 2's progress report for #NaGaDeMon25 ! This is for the The Amazing Digital Circus TTRPG. I didn’t do much, but I did start writing about the dice! Read more here: www.tumblr.com/norbezjones/...

I am working through the monster list!
Here is Volion! the electro lion monsti - that can use flash to light up places. Very handy in a spooky glitch dimension, like Sunnytown!
Star managed to get interactions and text working!

I've been looking at When The Walls Fall and Star Crossed for for #NaGaDeMon.
WTWF has too many prompts for me to go 1:1 and is too broad, Star Crossed is too failure-coded.
Bits of those two, and maybe a dash of Lost Among The Starlit Wreckage, might be the ingredients for a good cocktail though.
Thanks for the #SelfPromoSaturday space.
I'm knee-deep in #NaGaDeMon and just released my second solo journaling game of the month, a club hopping hack of Alone Among the Stars

Tiny steps of progress for #EscapeFromSunnytown, text rendering is working now and I know how to make it look more like Gen 1. Also, menus are starting to manifest.
#NaGaDeMon #indiegamedev
You are a solitary club-goer, hopping from club to club searching for something.
Meaning, companionship, forgiveness, escape.
Play until you have a realization, or until these endless nights no longer thrill you.

I am working through the monster list!
Here is Lotoad! A plant lotus - toad that can use cut. Very handy in a spooky glitch dimension, like Sunnytown!
Meanwhile Star is working on the gamemechanics.
Please repost and give ideas!💖💖

#EscapeFromSunnytown update: We have interactable objects now.
Small update only, but such is life. Tomorrow, the goal will be to get text rendering done.
#NaGaDeMon #indiegamedev
Sunnytown will be a puzzle game about being trapped in the GLITCH CITY of the old pokemon games. It is not a pokemon fangame but our own vision, that just leans on that idea.
You play Creme, a Monsti trainer that got lost in SUNNY TOWN and tries to return home.
