Haven't posted much due to focusing on the not-cool stuff. So here's my level design process! From sketching the layout, to blocking out, to texturing & vertex coloring. The shading of each room is its type: combat, puzzle, lore, or treasure. #gamedev #indiegame #solodev

Explore Mega Man Legends 2 maps, levels and models in the browser! Mega Man Legends 2 (PS1) added to the library: Mega Man Volnutt, Roll, Tron Bonne, Servbots, Reaverbots and bosses with animations, islands, towns, ruins and Flutter's rooms, in-game sky.

Further refinements to the ground pound. You get to blow away smaller enemies! The playstyle is not melee-focused and slam damage is minimal, but skilled players will be able to chain moves like a dance. #gamedev #steamgame #megamanlegends #adamantheart

Been working on the final boss of character movement: ledge climb! It's surprisingly more work, since you need to balance animation, moving the player, and making it look good while not clipping the ledge. Also, gliding has an effect now! #gamedev #indiegame #megamanlegends #adamantheart

Some notes: This is the only way to do aerial dashing tho, because otherwise it can break progression. Many areas in the game are locked behind your movement skills. Also, air recovery prevents falling to the very bottom of cliffs, if you mistime a jump.

A few notes: got comfortable with planning maps with intention-- everything is placed for a reason, so that it can be used later in the story. As an example, the dry dock will be an important set piece in Act 2, so it has ample space and is strategically placed. Also leaving room for extra content.

Making a little more progress on some of the necessities for #RogueRobotRavager, like enemy drops and chips that modify shot behavior beyond just stats. Have a peek at Scraps (the in-game currency, literal metal scraps dropped by Witherbots) and the Spiral Shot chip! #gamedev #megamanlegends

I have made a LOT of headway for #RogueRobotRavager as of late. Color-coded Item Chests, energy and health pickups, an in-progress dialogue system, enemies being able to JUMP when pathing, AND a new enemy model. Feels good to be back. #screenshotsaturday #gamedev #megamanlegends #indiedev

Here's how poison works in my game. You drink it from a bottle and it starts eating your health, with a red flash to remind you what a genius you are. The healing potion works the same way: smash the bottle, walk in the puddle, top yourself back up. #indiegames #gamedev #roguelike #dungeoncrawlel

3000 WISHLISTS. Your support means so much to me. We are hard at work on the demo and still so much to do before then. #gamedev #indiedev #indiegame #ps1 #gaming
