Every day is pride for us at CP 🏳️‍🌈 we don't like to bamboozle everyone with celebrations right at the beginning of Pride Month, there is a lot of noise. So here is where we decide to begin 😊 HAPPY PRIDE! 🌈🌟 WE ACCEPT YOU WHOLE HEARTEDLY! This controller is everything.

Our first guest on Dear Friends 📝 is the multi talented @LoriiPops Twitch Partner and long time content creator, new mom AND Game Dev. She's also the owner of Chromatic Pie Games 🌈🥧 Focusing on community and accessibility! Listen everywhere Friday 10am pt 🕹️anchor.fm/dear-videogames

This is so extremely important. We also noted the numerous trailers and showcases that did not have sufficient accessibility avenues for folks who need it. Sometimes it's lack of care, sometimes it's lack of funds, but when will we all stop making excuses? Thank you, Steve.

If you haven't had a chance to watch or listen to the Dear Video Games podcast ep with Lorii yet — what are ya doing!!?? 💛

WE GOT THIS 👏👏👏

Can we get a HOORAY 🎉 The main characters in our game have been fully realised & solidified into art ❤️ A few updates! - we have strategically chosen to veer away from Pixel art - we are working with a vibrant hand drawn art style that breathes justice & life into the story 😊

the first sneak peek at our game is... 🥁 drum roll 🥁 feet

Minnie is a bright asset to our team and continues to impress with her artistic talent. We're so thrilled to have her onboard and make our prototype shine!

Dear Streamers, When you begin a game for the first time, and you're exploring options for everyone to see, please do not skip the accessibility menu. Although you may not need accessibility, your viewers may be disabled gamers watching you to figure out if they can even play.

🚨 Disabled gamers! 🚨 What is accessibility to you, and why is it important for your player experience? I’m doing a thing, rt’s appreciated ♥️

Last night we shared our brand and game pitch with fellow New Zealand game developers at a cocktail bar event. It was such a lovely time, thank you to those who came along and the lucky ones who picked up a hat!

it's been a journey to even get to this stage but we are so grateful for the path that got us here. dreams are only truly squashed when you give up on them. if you persevere, there's always a chance at success, big or small. a prototype is still just the beginning! baby steps!

lovely women and LGBTQIA+ folks in #gamedev — we're hiring some contractors for our prototype! 2D Rigger 2D Animator Programmer please give us an email (in bio) we would be so excited to hear from you!!

we concur

we've completed a bunch of Charlie's animations for @thecobblergame that are now in engine! this is the "shrug" which triggers when the player idles for X amount of time. I'm looking forward to all the cute fourth wall breaks we add in!

new vacancy alert!! ✨ do you want to work on a cozy game with team of women? with the possibility of staying on for the whole project? send us an email with your animation reel! - remote work for contractors/freelance - women & minorities encouraged ❤️ chromaticpie.com/careers

we are designing our cobbler workshop with a few changes to come! essentially from here, you will select one of three activities to start crafting your first pair of Docs via point and click. you will be making them as they are IRL! but using medieval methods 🤗⚒️

NGL I feel uncomfortable that I'm about to desecrate this innocent Doc Martens boot and turn it into a Doc Boss. but ya know, for Very Important marketing purposes, I think it's justified 😂
