I played Negative Space at the Seattle Indies Expo a few weeks ago. It’s a deck builder about exploring outer space that isn’t focused on combat. It’s rad.

Demo is on Steam - you should check it out. @werdnalt.bsky.social

A playtester helped me make a change I'd been mulling over for a while. Some effects trigger when a card is drawn, but not when they're drawn during the normal beginning-of-turn lifecycle. He recommended adding a keyword instead, and thus, Retrieve was born! Thanks playtester!

Heading into the final stretch to get this game wrapped up. Been spending a lot of time in that last 10% but I'm determined to stop noodling soon to get it pushed out this Fall!

Drawing more trinket illustrations and ended up being pretty happy with how they turned out!

I make all the art on a super low res canvas in Procreate with a limited palette, and I find the restrictions end up pushing me to be more creative and get better results

Check out the demo for Negative Space on steam!

The art is beautifully cute and is an interesting twist on the Slay the Spire formula.

simple steps to explore the galaxy:
step 1: kill your crew with your Cult Leader
step 2: sacrifice the dead crew to Crewcifer
step 3: explore

it makes sense in the game... πŸ˜…demo available now!

Dr. Joe from Indie Game Clinic did a fantastic write up of Negative Space!

He and his community have been incredibly supportive and helpful during development - if you haven’t checked out his YouTube channel yet, you are truly missing out!
