I've been posting a lot of art, but I'm a game dev way more than I'm an artist. My current project doesn't offer much postable development content that wouldn't spoil things, so I'll post about a smaller project I did last year: Acid Spinner

It's mostly a game about a dishwasher in a restaurant that causes psychic damage, but it's also about shitty bosses, and employees trying to support each other. It's far from the most exciting or complex game but I think I accomplished what I wanted with it.

It's the only game I've put behind a paywall so far. It's $2.13 because that's the minimum wage in the U.S. for tipped workers, and I wanted to highlight that because I find it completely absurd. I don't like the price tag being the barrier for people who want to play it though, so I'll gladly give out a free key to anyone that asks.



Still trying to figure out what to post on this account, so I guess I'll try some game dev updates. I've been tinkering with a very small metroidvania that's very loosely gameboy-like. It's probably about 60-70% done at this point.

I still need to polish up the map, make a few sprites, finalize enemy placements, add popup text boxes, implement the bosses and setup sound effects and music.
