Roadmap Update: From Steam Launch to Future Projects It’s been roughly seven months since the last update, and with the upcoming release of Cook or Be Cooked on Steam, I think it’s necessary to update everyone and also put my thoughts in order. Cook...

Enemies can now die and disappear from the battle scene. Next I'll focus on refactoring some classes and create a basic enemy AI system to attack the players.

Help me out, folks!

Which one looks better?

Having a Health Bar background with enemy name or without?

I think having the background and enemy name makes the most sense.

Past couple of days I was trying to wrap my head around Combat Action buttons and placement. For now, I'm satisfied with the results. Tomorrow I'll work a bit on the enemy HP Bars most likely. #gameDev #twewy #persona #toiletBoundHanakoKun #indieGameDev #JRPG

Today's small progress: I implemented the targeting and damage system. Combat UI still looks a bit ugly; I'll improve it as I add more functionality. Parallel Pulse is an #indiegame inspired by #persona #TWEWY & #ToiletBoundHanakoKun

Parallel Pulse is a #turn-based #JRPG inspired by #persona & #TWEWY. Today I focused on the enemy group, the team HP bar, and general UI. The sprites look a bit pixelated, but I guess it has to do with some settings. Tomorrow I'll focus on the actions and functionality. #indiegamedev #indiegame

Moving forward, I'll be focusing on my next godot game: Parallel Pulse. It's a turn-based JRPG inspired by Persona & TWEWY. I'll be posting daily progress as to what I'm working on. Today I started experimenting with the UI and player positions, as well as inheriting. #persona #indiegame #twewy

Evelyn, our adorable bunny girl 🐰💕, might end up as Lucas' next meal 🍽️— or his true love. 💘

I had so much fun crafting the dynamic of their relationship while writing their story! ✍️🔥 I can’t wait to see where their journey takes them… or how it ends. 😈✨

The Tale of the Hungry Girl is another project I'm working on as a programmer with my friend, Rubi.

What I loved about this #CuteHorrorGame is its simplicity and how cute and creepy looks.

Hopefully we're release it by the end of February.

Unlike typical mimics, this one has been tamed and trained, serving as both guardian and pet. Your parents would get mad if suddenly something bad happened to it ^ ^

It may look like a harmless chest, but it’s got a bite sharper than your kitchen knives. Feed it right, or you might end up as the next meal! 🍴😱

Are you ready to face this hungry beast? 🔑✨
