I suppose it was touch and go for quite a few years whether my entry into the games industry would be a Zelda-like about robots or a Point N Click about robots...
Finding and making games in AGS (and making the prototype build of Primordia in AGS myself) cemented it. :)
Let's get some more of these going!
Here's my progress from 2006 - 2016

1) Correct; photography is not art, it is a unique medium for human expression and documentation.
2) Correct; I still think of photobashing as cheating but note the digital artist still has pencil skills.
3) Correct; It is 100% shitslop.
All 3 are correct.

The very first mention of my game Primordia in the media - this little gem from the deep Primordial archives when it just a solo project of yours truly :)

My really early tests involved a few different combos for Horatio & Crispin lol (and what looks like also my version of the Imperial Probe droid as a test sprite heh)

Original Horatio Sketch dated 23/4/2010 whoa seems like a lifetime ago ⚙️

I still have the recording of this, BTW.
Has some interesting moments definitely.
Speaking of Primordia - it's been almost TEN(?!) years since @Dualnames @WWSGames and I brought these two to life.
We're planning something very special to mark the occasion... :)

Primordia *was* riddled with bugs before I got help with it BTW, don't be afraid to ask people to help with your game.
The steadfast talent & earnestness of Horatio's fans never ceases to amaze me.
This screenshot from when Primordia was completely solo and I had literally no friends to help me make the game yet... Makes me sad, in a way. Yet happy.
Things always turn out how they're meant to.

Replying to @modredcastleton
If you can't afford to buy Primordia from Steam - please take my explicit permission to pirate it! It was going to be freeware for a long time, before I was convinced by several people to publish it and go...
Commercial.

We have 16 completely unique enemies (plus bosses) across our 9 dungeons so far - I want to get that number to at least 32 (minus bosses) but we create each one from scratch - so to speak. It's hugely laborious and deadset a top reason Hiber is still heavily in development.
1/2
I may have just devised a way to ''clone'' some types of our enemies (more than a sprite swap, or certainly palette swap, mind you) but a type of hybrid cloning where...
Well - would take ages to explain but might save us MONTHS in development time.
remember Y2K?
I lived through it. Maybe u didn't? WE HAD TO BURN AOL DISKS TO STAY WARM.

I reported both of these people and X says they did no wrong. See, this type of behavior is why I left X in the first place. It's absolutely inappropriate and disgusting to talk to people like this and Elon's trash website allows it to continue. #gamedev #indiedev #indiegame
Was about to write some important dialogue for our boy then hard a weird dream then checked the GDD and it was already written. 🌚
That print we sent @Shade_Meadows came out effing amazing the video doesn't really do it justice.
Very tempted to do an identical run soon - maybe if our pipeline can run without issues for a few weeks I might find time to sort some more merch ;)
