Level 11 of GrappleRun is (what I would consider) DONE!
Sketchbook Scramble, barring any extra polish later on, is now in a finished state!

I participated in a bunch of game jams throughout 2025 and released the demo for my game!

A picture of what the win screen looks like with the rounding up removed. Harsh.

Fun Fact about Grapplerun:
In older builds of the game, you could actually land a NEGATIVE score due to how the scoring system worked!
I decided to make the game round up your score because the old win screens just looked cruel. Case in point:

Thank you! I did play lots of flash games when I was younger so maybe that's where I got it from, lol

Update on Grapplerun:
I've gotten around to making the music for Level 11, for the main tracks and the alt tracks for the cutscene and intro!

What A Particular Fellow...

wonder what his deal is.

A new sneak peek at the level, including the new background!

About that new decorations post i made recently, with the randomized sketches, here's how it looks if they haven't been randomized yet.

my god he's everywhere

Update on Level 11: New decorations! The blue pencil is the Slide obstacle, accompanied by a red pencil for the jump obstacle! The sketches have random designs, positions, and rotations that shuffle everytime you restart!

Progress has been going smoothly on GrappleRun's 11th level! Here's a screenshot featuring an interesting intersection (and yes, there's a whole tileset per layer!)

#godot #gamedev #indie #games

The issue specifically was replacing the prototype tilesets with final ones. The old method had me essentially trace each layer, tile by tile. At first without even auto tiling. But there's a fill bucket option that replaces all instances of a tile with another. I've never felt more at bliss.

Hey everyone! Sorry for the long absence. Progress on Grapplerun had essentially halted because of how tedious my old mapmaking pipeline was. I... simply couldn't find the drive to do it for a 4-layer level. But now, I fixed an issue with it, so progress should start again!

#godot #gamedev #indie

Did some proportion practice for more realistic characters. Here's a kid and adult/teen versions of a character I made up on the spot!

#art #sketch #practice

I've also made a sprite for another character, Cano! Inki's main rival and side-antagonist throughout the game. Outfit not final but I like how he looks currently.

#gamedev #sprite #spriteart #pixelart #art #digitalart #games

Inki, from my first post on this account, now finally has a sprite-art version! This will be the color scheme (and probably even exact sprite, i'm proud of this one) used in the game he's from!

Weird. Might be a problem with Itch.io, since i opened the site and it wasn't loading. It's been having issues lately. Try again later!

Status Update on Grapplerun:

Level 11 is now functional! (as in it's in the game and bare minimum playable and clearable)

Now, I'll be focusing on the graphics of the level. I've already created the level's tilesets, so now I just have to reskin the level.

#godot #gamedev #indie #indiegame

right now i'm just spawning them in manually, with space spawning an entity with the mouse-follower job and shift spawning an entity with "placeholder" which just prints stuff to console to let you know it exists lol

made the basis for a task system where each entity is given a job, which generates a list of tasks for day, noon, and night based on the job as well as other factors i'll show off later if this test project even continues
#gamedev #bevy #rust #programming

bevy's funny

working on a little test project because ECS sounds amazing for certain types of games (especially data heavy, self acting games like simulators) and I wanna have stuff like that as well as rust in general in my toolset

#gamedev #bevy #rust #programming

For a sneak peek of the new Grapple Run levels to be featured in the full game, here's a little point of comparison. Some maps have multiple layers of track.

The most amount of layers in one level is around 2 in the demo. This level layout has 4.

how fun :)

THE GRAPPLERUN DEMO IS OUT!!!

Scream it from the rooftops and tell it to everyone in the world! After years of work, my game's demo is finished and on aniworks.itch.io/grapple-run to download and play RIGHT NOW!!

#godot #gamedev #indie #indiegame #indiegamedev #grapplerun #games #gamedemo

Thank you all for 10 followers! :)
I can't wait to see how everyone feels about the GrappleRun demo releasing soon!

#grapplerun #gamedev #gamedemos #indiegames

Yes. This was actually used in development. Have fun decrypting this.

A fun detail about Grapplerun's development:
The layout drawings from each level end up looking like crazy scribbles.

But it works: the resulting level ends up being large enough to even reach 8200x5200ish pixels! Below is a layout drawing from the first level.
