Nothing I can share today unfortunately. If anybody tries to tell you animation is easy, you are being lied to ๐Ÿ˜ญ

Its been going well so far. Im lucky enough to have friends who can offer to help and there are so many amazing people out there publishing their tutorials for the basics. I think the most enjoyable part is when it all comes together and its like "wow, I am actually making a game" XD

The hardest part about making a game as an artist has to be the coding. It makes no sense then makes perfect sense...then you miss an indent and suddenly it makes no sense again.

Grass, custom colliders and sprite iteration. I am slowly compiling a nice cluster of topics for a devlog!

Daily Reminder to flip your work and check your contrasts! I often have issues in my work with neglecting brighter colours. The first one looked fine on my PC but when looking at it across other devices it was clear my tilesets needed work.

Question for my wholesome fantasy gamers: What kind of creatures/ character tropes most interest you?

Currently working on our tilesets for the Demo level. Automating it like this is so much more efficient and so satisfying too!
