It's time to announce what I've been working on the past few months! Chai's Chai Shop is a point and click Diner Dash-style game where Chai the fairy runs her own tea shop. Serve customers, buy upgrades and unlock new recipes to make Chai's fairy friends happy! #indiegame #gamedev #fairies
Today marks 7 years since I publicly came out as being trans. 🏳️⚧️ I've come a long way since then, like finding my own style and aesthetic and accepting parts of my neurospicy and more spiritual self, but it wouldn't have bene possible with the amazing folks around me who accept me as I am! 💜
It's time for a drink! Which tea will you order? #gamedev #indiegame #pixelart
Character pixel art I did (with some help) for a new side project I've been working on for a few weeks! Featuring my Chai, Lilith, Melodie, Danae, Mana, and Nova; Maple and Hazel of @runicpixels.nl; and Paige of @flashkirby.bsky.social. Who can guess what they will be up to? #gamedev #indiegame
And of course I couldn't resist bringing home a fairy plushie to complete the collection! Now I have all the three Droomvlucht plushies and Olivia is also part of the Plushies of the Tea Party!
Went to the Efteling yesterday, and it was amazing as always! The ambience is so whimsical and fantastical! And of course they have Droomvlucht, the famous fairy dark ride. If you ever find yourself in the Netherlands, go visit this amazing theme park! 🧚🏻♀️
Next up is Lilith, my first fairy OC who turns 10 years old this year! She is a dreamer and has mood swings from time to time, and loves figure skating and her little sis Chai. Even after this time she still gives me a lot of comfort. Art by @maricu.bsky.social #fairy #fairyart #ocsky
I'm so happy with the results for #BrackeysGameJam! Our team managed to score 23rd place overall and 5th place in audio our of 1431 entries. I'm very proud of what we have done, being in the top 2% of such a big game jam is a huge achievement! Play Amaya's Light at: itch.io/jam/brackeys...
Part 2 of my rebranding is live: from now on I'll publish my indie game endeavours as Audune, instead of Audune Games. I decided to change this to stress that I am a humble person making games in my free time, and not a big indie game studio. #gamedev
Double bubble trouble! Sneak peek at the current state of Fairy Survivors (working title), the multiplayer bullet heaven game that I'm working on with @runicpixels.nl, @flashkirby.bsky.social and @karob.bsky.social. #indiegame #gamedev #bulletheaven #fairy
Happy new year everyone, may it be a good one! For me I hope to share more Fairy Survivors and Rayman 2: Redreamed content and work on music and games I love! 💜
I wish everyone happy holidays and all the best for the future! May next year bring lots of love, peace, fairies and more game dev! 🎄 And don't forget to eat some Christmas cookies! 🍪
I've joined #123scopegamejam as a solo dev and I'm working on a CMYK-themed tower defense game! The challenge is to only use 1 environment, 2 mechanics, and 3 challenges/enemies. Progress has been good last weekend, made some nice art for tiles and towers and a fancy UI mockup! #gamedev #cmyktd
Eevee! Made this originally to accompany it with text about closing my account on the gram of the insta, but she is dfinitely more cute without the text!
Do you all know someone who could create an action-packed pixel key art for Wesley Smith's Repair Game? The current key art is attached. #indiegame #gamedev #pixelart
Hey! I'm currently looking for job opportunities in game or software development! If you're in need some music, technical audio design and implementation, or coding, I'd love to get in touch! I've added some of my work in this thread for you to check out! #gamedev #indiegamedev #coding
