These have to be my tops, I didn't give it much thought and these were all just obvious choices. The Castlevania games I had on a double pack for GBA sp, inspired everything I do today. Honorable mentions: FTL, BOI, and Duck Game.

Not my style but I've been playing Marathon since it's a retro reboot.
All wins so far, but I used stealth while exfiltrating and got 3 chat messages
"YOOO COME ON! WTF! ONLY USE STEALTH WHEN NECESSARY!"

And I remembered why I stay out of online co-op. Tell people how to play simulators.

More of this underground manor in #Crocotile3D

There are many sub basements and a bare wooden tower reaching to the surface. Once a shelter for lecherous meddling cowards, Eliza now finds herself below the bottom level.

Nope it was always intended as a 2D project I just happened to be particularly dissatisfied with a covered bridge I tried to make, and found Crocotile3D. It's much faster to make good graphics this way!

Thanks very much! I am playing that game for the 3rd time right now and it's as great as I remember.

Usually this type of room would be 2 textures, wall and floor, but I wanted to try 2-layer depth. Now, we can smash through the plaster into the interior wall!

You start to notice them after leaving the safety of your campfire. Shadows drifting aimlessly in darkness. They circle around you like vultures then your light begins to fade. They dissolve in your ring of light but what happens when it goes out? #indiedev #gamedev #survival #goth #light #shadow

Update for Crocotile 3d, version 2.6.6
Fixes a bug with extruding, and now allows extruding while rotating with gizmo. Also -scaled skinned objects export more accurately. Also Slovenian localization has been added- thanks Andrew Poženel! 🐊

At a time like this, those who are powerless to change the world at large should take a breather and absorb themselves into beautiful art.
For me, it's the new #gorillaz album titled "The Mountain". Blends Indian tradition with old-school gorillaz style.

You play as the ghost of a royal family's murdered daughter 100 years after everybody but her father's cult has been slaughtered. Her only goal is revenge, but the Vicar (her father) is in an impenetrable immortality coffin, and needs to be summoned by the cult to be defeated.

Yup, and I can't recommend it strongly enough it's the best tool I've ever used to upgrade my art.

Yup a Godot game, which I guess is turning into some type of souls-like with early 3D Zelda influence.
