I think it's time I figured out how to animate some of my textures, so I'm starting with something simple... #pixelart

New themed texture pack just landed. It's only small for now, containing just 64 alien/futuristic themed textures, but it'll grow.

And of course, all of the additions will be going into the mega bundle too! #pixelart

There's something incredibly relaxing in thinking about how surfaces and materials might look if they were worn, damaged, broken, weathered, rusty, and overgrown.

You can get these and hundreds texture more just like 'em, for just $8! (Link below) #pixelart

Bluesky is so much nicer, because I just see the stuff I want to see, based on the people that I follow. Which means I don't get AI garbage shoved down my throat!

Making a decent looking fire animation cycle with the Spectrum's 2-colours per 8x8 block restriction was certainly tough! 🤖🔥 #zxspectrum

"I'm making a game with authentic ZX Spectrum graphics, in a web browser, using React!"

...is not something I ever thought I'd be saying! 🤣
I figured out how to emulate the #zxspectrum colour clash effect using HTML/CSS, which means I can make more Speccy style games using my own React-based game engine! 💪 #webdevelopment #javascript

I'm working on a series of concrete based textures, which interchange nicely. So far I have 16. #pixelart

I'm trying out some rough concrete textures. How's it looking so far?

🎉 I'm drawing texture again! The latest version adds 18 new textures, taking the total to 388!

It adds some gruesome, bloodied, wooden door variants, broken fences, some dirty steel beams, and more pebbles and cobblestones.

Almost 2 years ago I launched my first game on Steam! It's an adventure game that recreates the #zxspectrum aesthetic that I loved as a kid! 🤖⚡️

In BEEP'S ESCAPE you help a little robot escape captivity, by solving challenging puzzles!

I find that a long walk up in the hills is always the best way to get the creative juices flowing! I have so many fresh ideas when I'm out amongst nature.

Overreact, my first mobile app launched for iOS today, featuring a collection of (somewhat frustrating 😆) button-based mini games!

And a huge thank you to everyone who helped with testing and providing feedback!

(Android coming soon, I'm just waiting on the review process) #ios #gamedev
