NGL I feel uncomfortable that I'm about to desecrate this innocent Doc Martens boot and turn it into a Doc Boss. but ya know, for Very Important marketing purposes, I think it's justified 😂

we are designing our cobbler workshop with a few changes to come!
essentially from here, you will select one of three activities to start crafting your first pair of Docs via point and click. you will be making them as they are IRL! but using medieval methods 🤗⚒️
new vacancy alert!! ✨
do you want to work on a cozy game with team of women? with the possibility of staying on for the whole project? send us an email with your animation reel!

we've completed a bunch of Charlie's animations for @thecobblergame that are now in engine! this is the "shrug" which triggers when the player idles for X amount of time. I'm looking forward to all the cute fourth wall breaks we add in!

whew, here goes!
introducing, The Cobbler! Our first game from @ChromaticPie where you play as Charlie, a teenager living on a hidden medieval island that witnesses a peculiar shoe meteor shower. Mother Earth also resides here, and she's not happy...

it's been a journey to even get to this stage but we are so grateful for the path that got us here.
dreams are only truly squashed when you give up on them. if you persevere, there's always a chance at success, big or small.
a prototype is still just the beginning! baby steps!
hi hello, I don't know the proper way to announce this but we have secured funding for @ChromaticPie's prototype and I am like in denial 😭😭😭😭😭😭 it's happening, WE WILL SEE GAMEPLAY THIS YEAR!!!
Last night we shared our brand and game pitch with fellow New Zealand game developers at a cocktail bar event.
It was such a lovely time, thank you to those who came along and the lucky ones who picked up a hat!

🚨 Disabled gamers! 🚨
What is accessibility to you, and why is it important for your player experience?
I’m doing a thing, rt’s appreciated ♥️

Dear Streamers,
When you begin a game for the first time, and you're exploring options for everyone to see, please do not skip the accessibility menu. Although you may not need accessibility, your viewers may be disabled gamers watching you to figure out if they can even play.
Minnie is a bright asset to our team and continues to impress with her artistic talent. We're so thrilled to have her onboard and make our prototype shine!
I'd love to announce who our Lead Artist at @ChromaticPie is, she's helping bring our prototype to life.
I had the pleasure of working with her at a previous game studio, she's super duper talented and also very tall! @minweee !
Give her a follow, and buy some of her art! ❤️

the first sneak peek at our game is...

Can we get a HOORAY 🎉
The main characters in our game have been fully realised & solidified into art ❤️
A few updates!
- we have strategically chosen to veer away from Pixel art
- we are working with a vibrant hand drawn art style that breathes justice & life into the story 😊
WE GOT THIS 👏👏👏
I applied for KickStart funding from @code_nz for @ChromaticPie's first game. I'll start by saying we did not receive the funding this round, and I have been encouraged to apply again for the next in a month or so.
I'm positive that we will secure funds when the time is right!

A visual thread on Accessibility in Video Games
- credit to @ravenheart2343!
ALT Accessibility in video games a visual thread Thank you so much for your input! thanks to you all, we put together this short thread of games that we all feel are inaccessible in some way happy disability pride month! disability pride means connecting with each other to recognize how far we've come and how far we can go credit for thread: @ravenheart2343 feel free to dm if you'd like to contribute to the thread!
If you haven't had a chance to watch or listen to the @dearvideogames podcast ep with Lorii yet — what are ya doing!!?? 💛
Good Morning & Happy Timezone!
It's @dearvideogames podcast day!
8am pt - @IamSnackless and I chat gaming news, showcase opinion & we're in a cult now
10am pt - @LoriiPops shares how she got into gaming, blasting into the stream scene and more on her game studio @ChromaticPie
This is so extremely important. We also noted the numerous trailers and showcases that did not have sufficient accessibility avenues for folks who need it. Sometimes it's lack of care, sometimes it's lack of funds, but when will we all stop making excuses?
Thank you, Steve.

So here is where we decide to begin 😊
HAPPY PRIDE! 🌈🌟 WE ACCEPT YOU WHOLE HEARTEDLY! This controller is everything.

I got to customize my very own controller using the Pride theme in their design lab.
As a demisexual and bi woman, thank you Xbox 🥹❤️
