Injustement boudé à sa sortie, le ninja taciturne Joe Musashi mérite pourtant toute votre attention. Shinobi Art of Vengeance commence comme un jeu d'arcade pour se développer en Metroidvania. Graphismes ciselés, gameplay précis et humour au programme @lizardcube.bsky.social

Today mark the launch of Gamevestor, a new crowd equity platform for game development.
This is a project that is particularly close to my heart and I'm proud to join as an investor and board director.

New art for two bundles.
🔥 The LIZARD BUNDLES 🔥
It's always strange to revisit previous work, but they all vibe quite well together.

Happy 5th anniversary to Streets of Rage 4 🎂
This game means a lot to us and to the fans around the world. Some of you all may have wondered where the hell was our favorite skater boy, so here's a gift for you all.

Moved to a bigger office, for crafting not grinding. Just trying to make a meaningful place, one step at a time.

How do you explain to my 5 years old this is fake?
So for a few months Captain needed to have these little batman ears when I drew him 👹

As it happens, the ipad and procreate are not for me.
I can "sort of" draw on it... But I don't have the confidence or reflexes to go far. I doesn't feel like a proper tool, more like a toy.

I know a lot of people make incredible things with it.
But I'm good with an Intuos

Aki Senno / Tonko said to Yasuyuki Oda that she drew the Mark of the Wolves illustrations with a mouse. At the time (in 1999), it was common to colour in illustrations using a mouse, but to draw them without using another tool...

After years away from game dev, I couldn’t stay silent about my people’s dehumanization. I made Dreams on a Pillow 🍉a game inspired by a famous Palestinian folktale about the 1948 Nakba.

I’m crowdfunding it now—please back & share!

Omar has been the kickstart of it all, and I wouldn't be the same person without him. He's a beautiful human, and even though our path are no longer on the same road, I will cherish our journey together.

Some news for Lizardcube / @lizardcube.bsky.social fans. I am grateful and happy of the journey we started 9 years ago.

We rescued a stray dog this morning with the kids, only for the owner to casually show up an hour later... 😭
The kids and I were this close to owning a dog

Versus manga, written by One and drawn by Azuma goes very hard.
Love the drawings and posings, you can feel the animation

Earlier Shinobi game illustrations from the Sega Genesis/Mega Drive era goes hard! Looking back at these makes me really excited for the new game.

What would like to see in the new Shinobi game?

Has there been any essay matching pop culture designs with industrial designs?
Here are two examples from 1979 and mid 90s , but apart from mecha I guess it all bleeds in the general aesthetics of times.

Trying out the FF16 demo on steam.

I don't care for your badly written narrative and weird acting by lifeless archetypes.
