Each pony has DOZENS of expressive animations. That's why it takes so long to get each one from single concept sprite to finished in-game. Aseprite's the tool used to get these pixels moving around so nicely. #madewithunity #unity2d #gamedev #pixelart

Got a whole handful of features done today. It's really nice when our second programmer soars overseas to us and we get to go HAM all weekend on the project. Feels like a real indie studio with the three of us giving it our all in the same room. #gamedevelopment #IndieGameDev

#BattleGemPonies is gaining new features fast, but we really need to test them thoroughly because the softlocks and crashes are way too abundant. Get the full Progress Report on the YotesMark Patreon (it's free for all to read this time)! ๐Ÿ“ฐ#ษขแด€แดแด‡แด…แด‡แด  patreon.com/posts/progressโ€ฆ

In the #BattleGemPonies Arrival Story, Alpha ponies will appear after you've caught their base form. Come back to these same spots in the postgame and you may find new Alphas of the other local species in the area. (As well as Alphas of the 3 starters...)

One of the most common lower level Status attacks in #BattleGemPonies is Death Glare. It's pretty powerful too, especially early on when stats are all small numbers and GP is most precious. #pokemon #mlp #rpg

This week we're going map-by-map and setting up all the crazy things that happen. Then we end each day with a quick playtest of the new areas and take some notes on improvements to make first-thing the next morning. #screenshotsaturday

Today's mission has been sprucing up maps so players can't just walk past all the interesting obstacles. (That mostly means strategically placing rocks, trees, and walls everywhere. ๐Ÿชจ ) #gamedev #supertilemapeditor #unity2d

There's a developer debate over what color the decorative rim around the Crystal Stable interiors should be. Which color for the background border looks best? #monstertamer #gamedev #pixelart #feedback
