Side-by-side of the pixel art, the concept art and the reference picture. 🦀🐘 The process not only gives a work its character, it's also just fun to do. My work with Elfie will always be meticulously handcrafted! store.steampowered.com/app/3784760/... #ScreenshotSaturday #IndieGame #IndieDev
Show me a cool physical game! My Game Boy camera and Game Boy printer!! Despite how much I played this, the printer still somehow has some of the original paper!
Here's the art for the album cover for the OST! Elfie is silently swimming. 😉 #ScreenshotSaturday #IndieGame #PixelArt
Here are some of the recent review for the game! 💖🐘 I saw a comment that made me laugh a while ago. It was someone who was wondering why the reviews for this puzzle game were mostly about the elephant. I think this side by side of reviews helps explain that a bit!
Elfie: A Sand Plan is 20% for its first ever Steam Summer Sale! 🎉🐘 Help a small rotund elephant build a sandcastle or two (or 186) by the beach in this relaxing puzzle game! 🏖️🐘 store.steampowered.com/app/3784760/Elfie_A_Sand_Plan/ #IndieGame #PuzzleGame #CozyGame
The final meals before heading back to Canada! BitSummit was great! Seeing my Tokyo friends was great! But I am happy to be heading back. Not being in my own space made it hard to concentrate or do some things. So I'm looking forward to being able to do so! See you next time Japan!
E is for Elfie? 🤔 "Pssst! You can get Elfie's sandcastle puzzle game here on Steam!" -Elfie 👀🐘 store.steampowered.com/app/3784760/Elfie_A_Sand_Plan #indiegame #puzzlegame #godot
Don't want Elfie to need to get an office job? Consider getting her cozy puzzle indie game about sandcastles! Plus I guess you'd also be supporting a self-funded and self-published project made by humans for humans. store.steampowered.com/app/3784760/Elfie_A_Sand_Plan/ #IndieGames #CozyGames
Oh. 😮 I didn't know it worked that way for recent reviews. 😅 I guess technically I can say the game did get overwhelmingly positive reviews on Steam now? 🤭
Elfie had a post-launch party with some friends for her game! 🥰🎉🐘 She even got a surprise carrot cake made specifically to be cut into squares and used like the sand blocks in game. 🥹

There are quite a few things I let the player discover for themselves in Elfie: A Sand Plan. Like some of the potential follow-up conversations you can have with Elfie. #indiedev #gamedev #indiegame
Ms. Worldwide (Elfie) keeps getting great reviews in different languages for her cozy puzzle game! I’m looking forward to having more localizations! Currently simplified Chinese, Korean and the Russian language are in the work! store.steampowered.com/app/3784760/... #indiedev #indiegame
Life imitates art. You can get the art in question here: store.steampowered.com/app/3784760/... #indiegame #indiedev #godot
You might recognize an alias in the credits. 👀 (I helped a bit for a time last year!)
Elfie and I got to meet the devs of A Tiny Wander! It was so nice to talk to them! Please go check out their game! 😊 #BitSummit
I'm so grateful to everyone who left a review. People are really enjoying the game. 🥹 But also, Elfie: A Sand Plan has other metrics that make me happy. Over 80% of people who bought it have played it. And the refund rate varies between 1.7-2.0%. Statistically speaking (🤓), that's really good. 😳
Missed the launch discount? Well elephans rejoice! Here's the "Relaxing with Elephants" bundle crwated in collaboration with the folks over at Studio Niente. So now you can relax with elephants both big and small! 🎉🐘 Bundle page: store.steampowered.com/bundle/75630...
