It's done! Plebs & Pillagers is out now! Check it out on Steam! 🧔🛖 store.steampowered.com/app/2581360/Pl… #steam #game #release

Hi! I'm still alive, and I'm still making games 😅 Just a quick info for those who might be interested: You can get Plebs & Pillagers for 35% off right now on the #SteamWinterSale (link is on my profile)🎄 There might also be some updates on my next game(s) in the near future 👍

@Friedemann_A No problem! It just already looked so good and juicy that my imagination started running wild :)

@_Kloppfer_ Great idea with the glow, thanks again!!

Reworked the Game Over screen a little, thanks @_Kloppfer_ for the idea 🖤

@Friedemann_A Looks lovely as always! Just a random idea for the game over text (I'm totally not mad if you don't like it): the text could start in a hot glowing orange and then "cool down" to it's current color. Would add some juice, but might differ from your intended feel.

@GreyAlien Let me guess: You have to repair the sunblinds, forcing you to look into the general direction of the sun in the process? 🤔 Anyways, they really suit you! 😎

You’ll never guess what I need these clip on shades for. Pics incoming next week.

@Friedemann_A Really love that art style! The combination of the rough pixelart and the higher-fidelity assets can be qiote tricky to pull off, but you definitely did a great job!

First sketches to final implementation in Slots & Daggers! (Wishlist link in comments⬇️) I wanted the workflow to be very intuitive, guided mostly by what's fun, fast and feels right, so these first sketches of enemies ended up as final assets in the finished game 🧌🖤🎰

@GreyAlien Totally agree. The argument "the code comments itself" can only be valid if it's written very descriptive (which it very often just isn't) I've been working with a roughly 20 year old - mostly uncommented - web system for the last years, so I know what I'm talking about... 😅

The reason you might want your code to be understandable and commented even if only you are working on it is the future you in 1 year or 10 years might need to modify/reuse it. Also if you ever need to hand it to a porter you want them to understand it.

@GilenART @_NATSU_KAZE_ Insane detail 😍 Also love the color choices!

Some of the details in my new piece! Months of my time spent on this so far. All done in procreate+procreate dreams

@clemmygames Although there have been many great ones in between, it's probably still Nuclear Throne for me.

@lorenschmidt Am I seeing this correctly and you're using just two colors for those character sprites? They look insanely expressive. Love it!

working on new sprites for undead characters. left is a sepulchral crawler, which is a (mostly) noncombat unit. right are three designs for the sepulchral "spider", a sort of arthropoid unit well-suited for clambering quickly through tunnels.

@_Kloppfer_ Hey @_Kloppfer_ Thank you very much for your words and fixing the crash. Can‘t wait to play your game again. Hopefully more people will found Plebs & Pillagers and like the game as I do. Best regards Pixelritter

PixelRitter covered Plebs & Pillagers on #twitch ! Thanks for the great coverage and also for the really nice review! twitch.tv/videos/2353136…

@rlysimplegolf @clemmygames Exactly what I thought. It IS important to finish, but it is also important to know when to stop (sunk-cost fallacy, having a target audience etc.).

@clemmygames Is it better to make 10 unfinished games for 6 years, or make one unsuccesful game for 6 years?😅
