@richardstampdev
Freelance, Open for Opportunities Prev. Lead Dev at Crystal Spider Games Worked on Until Dawn (PS5), Stream Quest and Trenchcoat Adventurer! I stream my work over at
Really enjoyed the last few days working on a nice little cosy game! Pixel art aesthetic, beautiful models by @jellehtea.bsky.social and a very satisfying core game loop. I can see why folks are into this. Honestly think we are on to something here, too.
Excellent progress on Stream Quest today. Still not sure if I'm calling it Stream Quest 2, or Remaster, or Remake... still, good progress. A big chunk of UI today, including a "This is what levelling up might look like!"

If this doesn't hammer home the fact that combat is turn-based, I don't know what to do o.o" I also need to add a short one when they skip turns, too. (Some enemies only act every other turn, which is important tactically.) store.steampowered.com/app/3989640/A_Kobold_Story__Trenchcoat_Adventurer/
