日本語が少し変だったらごめんなさい. 私はオーストラリア人ですが、現在日本に10年間住んでいます. 私のゲームは、過去の西洋のRPGをベースにしており、日本のRPGの戦闘にひねりを加えています。広大な手作りのオープンワールドとターン制の戦闘が特徴です。

I am making an RPG inspired by classics of the 80s and 90s. It's set in a huge hand crafted open world and has a deep turn based combat system and a very non linear way to play. You can find out more here #pixelart #screenshotsaturday #indiegames

I wasn't very happy with my original world map screen I did so this week I have been working on updating things a bit. Next on to expanding and adding animations to it! #pixelart #gamdev

If you grew up playing classic rpgs in the 80s and 90s or just love large scale rpgs then you might be interested in my game, Lair of the Leviathan. You can wishlist here. #screenshotsaturday #RPG #retrogames #pixelart

While waiting for some music to come in I have been messing around with the world map, making it look a little nicer and adding in some animations. The water now moves.

The goblinknight. One of the 'secret' unlockable companions as you go through the story. I really miss the days of having totally optional companions players can find (or totally miss!) ala shining force or final fantasy 6 #pixelart #indiegames

Victory! Do I just enjoy drawing goblins or finally, is the torture of making a teaser trailer done? Maybe both!

I just wanted to say thanks to everyone who liked and reposted my trailer. I had never liked using social media before but I felt humbled by the positive support. None of you had to do that, but you did. It can be isolated out there as a solodev, so I really appreciate it.

Looking at my steam wishlists I have noticed that a huge number are from Germany. Surprising! There is such an America centric view of steam so I wasn't expecting that. Also, why?? Is there a demand for old school pixelart rpgs in Germany specifically?

@3utRakuten これは本当に興味深いトピックですね。私はターン制のゲームが大好きです。しかし最近、小規模なゲームに関して、ほとんどの西洋のRPGは「ローグライク」と呼ぶものか、デッキ構築型カードゲームの要素があるものです。私は伝統的なスタイルのターン制のRPGが好きですが、ますます珍しくなっています。

@ArturSmiarowski I love how you do things your own way. As others have said, there are plenty of games using flashy overproduced graphics or cinematics to market. I guess those games are 'good first impression' games but those kind of games don't interest me like games such as yours do.

The general advice from people is never use pixel art for your Steam store capsule but I thought I would give it a try anyway. I think it turned out ok. #pixelart #RPG #Goldbox #retrogames #Steam
