Nova Storm @NovaSquirrel@computerfairi.es

This house was pretty poorly thought-out overall but I still like it and it has a good view. No walls means phantoms can get in (though replacing my roof with full blocks sounds like it'd help?), and jungles seem like they're just very dangerous in general, being dark and difficult to navigate. #minecraft

I eventually did get that dumb Isabelle kettle

My pizza turned out well! It's very lucky that my favorite food is so easy to make.

My brother labels his food with his initial, but I like to imagine this ketchup restores all of your health.

Doodled an Isabelle for practice. It was a little tricky and I'm not 100% happy with all of it.

It actually turned out very well and was a lot better than doing this with tortillas. The pita bread was discounted a lot too, probably since the use-by date is tomorrow.

Here's an actual picture of my problem with going overboard with pickles

Starting to actually put floating windows into Tilemap Town. I think this design makes a LOT more sense than dumping everything into a scrollable pane in the lower left corner. #gamedev

This is a pretty good example of what I mean with a nice ol' W

Oh no, I think Sonic Mania might be one of those games that requires Joy2Key.

Thankfully it's also one of those games where if I map my controller buttons to the 1-9 keys on the keyboard, menus will actually display the thing printed on the buttons.

Tried adding more colors to the player sprite for Nova the Squirrel for practice, with darker line art this time for contrast. I don't need to keep this exact shape for a potential "All Stars" version but the hitbox (and thus the 16x24) is important to keep, otherwise there would need to be lots of level changes and that would defeat the purpose of a SNES remake.

Cat kept walking around my Sega Genesis and she keeps looking at it.

Someone just followed me on Twitter with no tweets and a very bizarre, very small following list that's just homebrew related people and then Trump and Ann Coulter for some reason.

Fixed the direction of the shading to make a bit more sense based on feedback.

Don't 100% know what I'm doing with shading but I'm going to attempt it and I guess I'll just have to be unafraid to make mistakes and improve.

Probably should try to draw more than just myself too. Back when I was practicing NES graphics I doodled a bunch of friends and it was fun trying to reduce other friends' characters down to something that works in 3 colors.

Playing with more colors and bigger sprites, and taking baby-steps towards SNES-style stuff. NES is a lot easier with its harsher limitations.

Resizable, draggable window test in JavaScript, for eventual use in Tilemap Town. Still got a few problems to fix but seems mostly fine with relatively little code.
