Star Spark is looking better every day. Everyone must wishlist this!

(BTW I'm also making a turn-based combat thing called #Capesong. A superhero buildcrafting game. If you've got room for 2 turn-based battlers, plz consider wishlisting mine after Star Spark). #TurnBasedThursday

This week has been #pixelart - making the system to swap eyes/eyebrows/mouths to convey emotion. I want players to make unique characters they truly connect with. The most vital part of a #superhero story is the person behind the mask. That is the core vision for #Capesong. #aseprite #indiedev #oc

#Capesong: a superheroic combat tactics game (in early development). Plan moves on a shared timeline, then build/combine powers to grow stronger. I hope OC creators, comic fans and strategy gamers find it worthy of interest. #marvel #dc #comics #OC #indiedev #WishlistWednesday

Glacier Wall guards 5 ticks & applies 2 frail if attacked into, Chain Lightning fires next attack 2x, Brittle Cold does 26dmg & applies 1 frail if unblocked, Shatter does 130dmg if 3 frail were applied. Success!

One of the biggest problems that keeps coming up is information overload. I'm working on streamlining and organizing turn recaps, and on building a 'mentor' voice (the All Might or Prof X who watch and give pertinent recommendations) #Capesong #ScreenshotSaturday #indiedev #gamedev #superhero #OC

Thanks for hosting #TurnBasedThursday!

#Capesong is a strategic combat game where you build a superhero, then draft/fuse/enhance your power chips over the course of a run. Battle plans play out on a shared timeline where placement/prediction determines the outcome.

Slowly making progress on the battle screen UI. Why didn't you guys tell me that fitting things into boxes without f'ing up the other boxes was the hardest part of #gamedev?

Gonna re-post this WIP of the power codex I've been working on for #Capesong; a turn-based build-your-own #superhero tactical combat game. Inspired by Super Auto Pets, Balatro (I know), Yomi Hustle, Into the Breach & more. #PixelArt #Gamedev #Indiedev #OC

Working on the codex. NGL I'm proud of my dev/art progress so far to see these all on one screen. Still 200+ more on the planning spreadsheet yet to be created.

Spent some time this week working on the animations for when heroes apply elemental effects to the field instead of directly attacking opponents. #ScreenshotSaturday #Capesong #pixelart #aseprite #turnbased #roguelike #superhero #superherogame #comicart #indiecomics #OC #indiedev #gamedev #solodev

Sometimes the RNG generates a meh powerset but you wanna try anyway because the guy's name is Myron Pupper. #WishlistWednesday #Capesong #Indiedev #Gamedev #superhero #superherogame #OC #turnbased #roguelike #pixelart

In #Capesong, the mana is called momentum. Certain powers can boost/steal it from you or the enemy. Trying to balance the costs and strength of these powers is this week's task (and probably next week's, and the week after that, and the week after that...) #TurnBasedThursday #gamedev #OC #superhero

Made steady progress on #Capesong sprites & UI layout this week. A build-your-own-superhero game with turn-based timeline-planned combat (some inspirations include Super Auto Pets/Backpack Battles/The Bazaar). Still much work to do!

Much of the last month has been spent drawing sprite animations. Finally finished the important ones. Next up, projectiles and particle beams. Hope to have a preview video ready soon s.team/a/4667120/

The game is turn-based strategic combat, but at each round's resolution, it'd be sweet to watch the superhero battle play out as the turn results are revealed. Made a test area to experiment with the sprites. Still a long way to go! #indiedev #gamedev #superhero #OC #Capesong #ScreenshotSaturday

Thx for hosting #TurnBasedThursday! Still in early development, but I'm making #Capesong, a strategic combat game where you build your own superhero OCs and send them into battle using a (hopefully unique!) timeline-based move-planning system.

Promotion to the Global Defenders is meant to feel like a rare and well-earned reward for a particularly successful run. Making this the moment where you can give your guy an actual superhero codename feels like the right move. #capesong #indiedev #solodev #gamedev #superhero #superherogame #OC

Postbattle upgrade screen WIP. Go deep on single-element mastery, branch out to find an unexpected synergy, tack on some super-speed for a momentum boost, or just heal up for the next battle? #ScreenshotSaturday #Indiedev #gamedev #solodev #superhero #superherogame #capesong
