Y’all. We’re doing it. I took out all the test data, put in the Real Stuff, and I’m testing the full game. It’s fun! I also have a bug list as long as my arm now. #indiedev#gamedev#videogames#gaming#pixelart#vaporwave
The broods are awakening, swarming, screaming, and eventually leaving their exoskeletons everywhere. My patrons suggested a neon cicada, and I was happy to jump into a fun, bright palette. This design uses standard DMC and nothing extra or fancy!
Find this bright critter in my Patreon until June 15th.
in an effort to expand my music library and also share cool stuff, fedi, I beseech thee... lend me your ears (and boosts)
if you listen to, make, or have a friend who makes electronic music that fits any of these descriptions:
sounds like the early 2000s, especially if it's some kind of dnb, jungle, or ambient
nostalgic futurism that isn't dnb or ambient (and especially not synthwave!)
sounds like racing game music from back when it was too good
vaporwave but original (as in, not sample based) and not synthwave
weird and wacky experimental electronica that can work in the background
bass heavy but low intensity music that tickles the brain
just really pretty and interesting ambient or drone stuff in general
please drop names and links here. by all means, plug yourself and your friends if you want to
bandcamp, mirlo, faircamp, and similar links are preferable, but any link will do if those aren't available. extra bonus points if creative commons or similar
I think these styles of music are amazing and rather underrated, especially since a lot of the people who like these styles are just playing random youtube mixes in the background, so they have no idea what they're actually listening to or who to support
I also find this kind of music annoyingly hard to discover, which isn't helped by those mixes either, because most of them are either drawing from the same small handful of artists, or just playing video game soundtracks
I want to change that, even if only a little bit. for that reason, please boost
aside from just hoping to spread this post around, I'd love to write about what I hear on my website eventually too, play it during livestreams with the titles on screen, and of course share it with all my non-fedi friends
My husband does like really smart person programming all day and I meanwhile spent a significant chunk of time trying to remember if this was a 1989 or 1987 Dodge. Anyway Vaporwave Battler is going well. #gaming#videogames#indiegames#screenshotsatuday#pixelart#vaporwave
I am currently re-watching Star Trek: Deep Space Nine all the way through, every season from the beginning. I am halfway through the 4th season right now. And one thing I was not prepared for was the amount of and intensity of the vaporwave energy coming off of this show. I mean wow lol
ME: listening to #vaporwave in my home office which is equipped with #RGB lighting
ME: 💡❕
Dear reader, I love nothing else in this world so much as novelty and cliche, so you can probably guess what specific smart-lighting "scene" I just added to my home. 🩷 💙
