I am on vacation for the next two weeks, so in the mean time I am making some squirrel comics. #squirrelsofinstagram #storytelling #squirrelart #interactiveart #interactivecomic #digitalcomic #onvacation #dropeverything #dropeverythingstudios #cutecomic #gamedevelopment https://www.instagram.com/p/COx4b8QHCC5/?igshid=1fyaw9zbekxqb

SOUND ON! Also, I got a rudimentary menu system working, WITH an active inventory! Social capital is a match 3 game where you build and cultivate an inventory of tiles. With this new update, you can see the tiles that you have cultivated. https://www.instagram.com/p/CN5Ex4XHDQx/?igshid=1sxol9zgln1sv

This took way too long. This will become an animated background for one of the levels in our upcoming match 3 game, Social Capital. Social Capital is a lofi-indie/lofi-hiphop inspired match 3 game. Hopefully, it will look and play beautifully. https://www.instagram.com/p/CNvM8msn5cl/?igshid=qqb5n60pgz7r

Another placeholder background for Social Capital (our roguelike match 3 game.) This one turned out really good, and might become an actual background in the game.

Now we have 16 unique tiles in the game! And they are super over powered! (Gotta fix that.) https://www.instagram.com/p/CNVD-ibHT08/?igshid=19m5ktrwgm1c0

With our powers combined! New dual pieces for Social Capital!!! In play testing so far, they are mega broken, but so fun! Anyway, this week will probably be all about these pieces, with maybe some Practicum stuff thrown in. https://www.instagram.com/p/CNSF6ADnqyV/?igshid=16svowgljff1g

A river runs through. It forms yet another background for Social Capital. (at Marble Canyon, Arizona) https://www.instagram.com/p/CNQHJmJHRvV/?igshid=il4bjkp3y9vw

More placeholder backgrounds for Social Capital. This was a shot I took while I was out skateboarding the other day. I applied filters, and painted in some sections. It turned out pretty nice I think. https://www.instagram.com/p/CNNfyZJn3nj/?igshid=1fpt7okvdubxl

Current WIP for Social Capital. Everything here is temporary (except the tiles). Placeholder music by @hauntluma. https://www.instagram.com/p/CNKaZOvHvwf/?igshid=1gchirrjoqr69

Basic tiles!!! I have been working hard on the basic tiles for the match 3 game, Social Capital, and to be honest, THEY TURNED OUT GREAT! Social Capital is a match 3 game (like Bejeweled or Candy Crush) with a lofi-indie/lofi-hiphop asthetic. It will be done in late May, and be publicly available in June. https://www.instagram.com/p/CNH0O5EnQte/?igshid=9jhumjp8dh7t

New background for the lofi indie inspired match 3 game, social capital! This was a photo that I took in Austin Texas, and manipulated to look like a watercolor. There will be a series of these for the game, about 30 in total. Let me know what you think. https://www.instagram.com/p/CNC1TMFn5nX/?igshid=zicz38x331pc

3 years ago we released a VR puzzler for mobile phones. It was a massive flop. No one buys premium VR games for mobile phones it turns out. (Also we knew nothing about marketing.) This was a map of all the levels. Each level was a joy to make, and a ton of work. In the end, it was the best learning experience of my life. #dropeverythingstudios #gamedeveloper #encompassed #reachingnewheights #PracticumGame #puzzler #videogames #photography #coding #storytelling #production #multimedia #digitalart #indiegame #indiedev #gamedevelopment #joyofgames #entertainment #virtualreality #vr #failure #learningthroughplay https://www.instagram.com/p/CMdJzCdHs1h/?igshid=gag669hnwojw

A glass of Champagne! I am making some easy developer art for Social Capital. This is one of the tiles. #indiegame #indiedev #gamedevelopment #joyofgames #entertainment #match3 #matchthree #lofihiphop #lofiaesthetic #videogame #funandgames #learning #coding #unitygames #dropeverythingstudios #dropeverything #gamestudio #socialcapitalgame #socialcapital #chill #cozy #indiegames #indie #nofear #fearless https://www.instagram.com/p/CMVsWgsHgPu/?igshid=1frzi69baf5b1

Yikes. I mean, bugs happen, but this is pretty bad. This is the new game that I am working on. I hope to have it out by the end of April. For those of you who follow our Facebook discussion board, this is the "selling out" game. I promise it will be meaningful and have value. I would never just do a match 3 game without something special for you all. Game art is temporary. It came with a tutorial I was working on. #dropeverythingstudios #gamedeveloper #puzzler #videogames #coding #storytelling #production #multimedia #digitalart #indiedev #indiegame #matchthree #placeholderart #gameplay #bejeweled https://www.instagram.com/p/CLttuLwhEfh/?igshid=t5spj3kzxt78
