I'm proud to have been able to work with Anders on @SkaldRpg for the last 1.5 years.
It's truly been a joy. It's wonderful to see my environment art combined with all the amazing art; elaborate illustrations, creature animations, writing and music. ❤️

There's been a lot of really wonderful things said about SKALD since it launched, so if you haven't picked up your copy yet...go grab it now! store.steampowered.com/app/1…
Trying to learn some Godot, no idea for a game yet, just playing, and sketched this lil' character I might use.
Can you tell I played DOS Prince of Persia recently?

Huzza! We've now set up an experiMENTAL branch on Steam to be able to offer updates a bit sooner to the more adventurously inclined members of the #Skald community! It also massively help me test builds before we expose them to the greater hive-mind! 🧠

What a week! Crushing it on Steam so we're extending launch week discounts until June 13th so as many people as possible can poison their souls with #Skald!
Oh and we're dropping the first update in two hours & I'm doing an AMA today!

Done did it! Even though I've pretty much seen almost every nook and cranny while working on the game, there were still surprises around every corner :D
I might be biased but I loved it, all the art, writing and music came together so well. Amazing job everyone!

I'm a solo developer and I've pretty much all of the writing, design and coding myself. That's not to say I haven't been blessed with INCREDIBLE freelancers who have all shaped the game in their own major ways!
Below is my thread of fantastic #Skald freelancers! 🧵
@SkaldRpg is getting some really solid reviews, and I couldn't be happier :)
Check out the game on Steam or GOG 🤘

🔥Tormentor X Punisher was released 7 years ago today🔥
Fun fact, big media outlets were scared to review this due to swearing 😱 what's your favourite phrase from the game? Mine is "Eat Shit You Fuck"

OK, I pondered for a bit.
SKALD was a blast, and AL and the team did an amazing job. After 5 years of waiting for this game, I was glued to the screen for several days, enjoying every minute.
I hadn't glued like this to my screen in a very long time.
NOW GET IT!

Amazing to see all those little details come together 🤘
