For those of you who like to go fast, check out the brand new Crouch Hop move! Although the hop itself is quite low, it gives you a significant burst of speed that you can maintain through constant jumping! #indiedev #gamedev #indiegame #Nintendo #gameboy #gbstudio #pixelart

Another development update, 4-2 and 4-3 are both complete, and 4-4's stage design in now in progress. Once that's done, I'll likely begin designing the backgrounds for the world 4 stages. #indiegamedev #gamedev #indiegame #Nintendo #gameboy #gbstudio #pixelart #games

And finally we have some some world 4 sprites to show off! Things are still in the works here though, but progress is coming along nicely. #indiegamedev #gamedev #indiegame #Nintendo #gameboy #gbstudio #pixelart #games

Shhhhhh! These blindfolded ghouls may not be able to see, but they can hear just about anything. Make too much noise around them, and they'll give chase! #indiegamedev #gamedev #indiegame #Nintendo #gameboy #gbstudio #pixelart #games

Pulling off some vacuum schmoovement to feed these hungry polterplatforms! #indiegamedev #gamedev #indiegame #Nintendo #gameboy #gbstudio #pixelart #games

Bit of a development update, the level designs for world 4 are now in the works! 4-1 is already functionally complete, (check out these new shrinking pipes), and 4-2 is well underway and coming along nicely. #indiegamedev #gamedev #indiegame #Nintendo #gameboy #gbstudio #pixelart

Here we have another sprite showcase. This diverse group of characters are all residents of the Sundown Cemetery! #indiedev #gamedev #indiegame #Nintendo #gameboy #gbstudio #pixelart

Got another sprite showcase to share, this time featuring the creepy cast from the Mysterious Manor! #indiedev #gamedev #indiegame #Nintendo #gameboy #gbstudio #pixelart

Won't have much to share gameplay-wise for a bit since I'm currently working on a bunch of back-end stuff for Candy Quest. So, I'm gonna share some sprite work in the meantime, starting off with the Fall Forest! #indiedev #gamedev #indiegame #Nintendo #gameboy #gbstudio #pixelart

Made some new things for you to break! #indiedev #gamedev #indiegame #gameboy #gbstudio #pixelart

Here's the current handful of baddies from 4-4. With the focus of this level being on all of the movement-related mechanics, each of these enemies is able to interact with them. Also rail grinding skeletons are just cool. #indiedev #gamedev #gameboy #pixelart #gbstudio #indiegame

I'm kinda going all out for 4-4 with the movement options. We got grind rails, potions that give you a big swirling boost, and banners you can wall jump off of! And wow is it fun to string a bunch of these together! #indiedev #gamedev #gameboy #pixelart #gbstudio #indiegame

And here's the rest of the stuff from 4-3, the main feature to note being the portal books! Although here they're set up in a rather simple manner for testing, I'll make sure they'll be put to good use in the real level. #indiedev #gamedev #gameboy #pixelart #gbstudio #indiegame

Here's some of the bits and bobs for 4-3. Overall all of world 4's main level mechanics/enemies are nearly complete. I'm just about to start the functionality for 4-4's, then it'll be working on the level designs next! #indiedev #gamedev #gameboy #pixelart #gbstudio #indiegame

Here's a sort of miniboss I've made for 4-2, the Possessed Armor! A fight with one of these guys can be pretty frantic as you try to dodge all of the slash attacks they send out! #indiedev #gamedev #gameboy #pixelart #gbstudio #indiegame #ScreenshotFriday

Working on some new baddies for 4-2. My favorite design currently is the little candle guys, but I also really like the how blue ghouls try to run away from you when you're vacuuming. #indiedev #gamedev #gameboy #pixelart #gbstudio

Here's another moveset overhaul I've been working on for 4-2. This vacuum you'll be equipped with will let you suck up enemies and fire them out as damaging projectiles, it'll also alter your physics depending on the direction held! #indiedev #gamedev #gameboy #pixelart #gbstudio

Here's the remaining bits of 4-1, featuring the shrunken transformation! When shrunken, you're unable to attack, but you'll be able slip into all sorts of nooks and crannies. You can also hitch a ride on the flies to get around! #indiedev #gamedev #gameboy #pixelart #gbstudio

Progress on world 4 (the final main world😱) is already underway! Here's a look at some of the new stuff I've been working on for 4-1. There's still a lot of work to do, but we're definitely closer to the finish line than not! #indiedev #gamedev #gameboy #pixelart #gbstudio

And finally, for now, the Twilight Treetops has been updated. Mainly in the form of a new friendly Propeller Acorn you can use to float through the stage! You can also perform a flutter kick attack when letting go while airborne! #indiedev #gamedev #gameboy #pixelart #gbstudio
