During the month of March, I'm gonna be working extra hard to get some funds back after a nasty vet bill...so we'll be ok for the next (less) nasty vet bill!! 🔥

Here's the plans and such!
Thank you! 💐

This was our dear old Uncle Edward. He was never quite the same after the war, but he never lost that infectious smile of his. Cheers, friends! I'll buy us all a round of grog in his name.

Super cool new portrait of Akinai for her shop's interface! She's gonna be animated and everything, eventually... Side note, the bead she's holding is the main currency in the game! #pixelart #gamedev

Outlook's calendar pinged me–turns out it's my 13th anniversary at work.

2026 hasn't been off to a great start, but at this point I'm thankful to just have my job.

I gave up on making a career out of making games, but my projects provide comfort for me in rough times.

I'll keep doing my best <:P

Day 35: 2025/08/18 - 8.5h

Found & implemented more fitting (at least for now) SFX for terrain-specific footsteps, mumble voices for character text, melodic acorns, crackling torches, & household sounds for interactable objects & light switches.

I feel good about what I where I'm at with the Reachure model :).

My hand is hurting a bit, so I think I'm going to take it easy for the rest of the night.

Day 19: 2025/07/16 - 12h

CW: annoying sounds, some repeated content from last post

Cutscenes can now move the player & hide/show the textbox throughout a scene. These & other actions are unstable & finicky to execute without glitches.

I finished up the diagonal-left and diagonal-right sprites up tonight, too. :)

I'm relieved with how smoothly this went. :D

10k reposts and I'll stop using Nomad Sculpt for working on the 3D stuff for Crystology, and use my O2 with Maya 4 instead.

To this day, I'm still getting spam calls for small business loans after I started an LLC for my game stuff. It's so annoying and different folks call me on near daily basis, with the same quip about being able to be removed from a list.

I'm almost tempted to answer and tell them I'm not interested

I really appreciate the love this has gotten, and more folks checking on my work.

It's been a rough week, and I've been needing something to cheer me up <:P

I missed #PortfolioDay 😅
I used to just do pixel art, but now I'm doing that, plus pre-rendered backgrounds for my next game.

Douglas: Sounds like you've got something radical in mind... Lay it on me, bud!
Sam: I'm rebuilding this game from scratch!

Hey hey #PortfolioDay! I'm Sam, the #pixelart specialist and #gamedev behind my #rpg known as #Moonshell_Island! I'm pretty busy rebuilding the project as I learn programming in #gamemaker, but may be open to pixel art work in the future.

I keep trying to justify getting the Steam Deck as a way to test the game, because I am stuggling to just sit down and enjoy a game these days with how rough everything has been and my mental state.

I'm still very glad I finally picked one up for that reason, though.
