Metroidvania solo developer. Working towards building mod tools to help anyone create worlds quickly and easily.

Seems like I got a minor concussion over the weekend, so I'm going to be taking it easy the next week or so... This classic mode building with mod tools process has been going well though. Really adding some nice details and fullness to the world and noting down bugs to fix. Out…
Idk about anyone else, but when playtesting my game I try to play like the most cautious player (which is opposite how i'd normally play), and it's kinda a relaxing experience. And it also makes me realize blind falls like this which need to be fixed.
While it's tough to maintain the passion and inspiration for finishing a project which I started 6 years ago, What's getting my inertia moving now is gratitude. I'm feeling grateful for the work I put in to study the structure of Super Metroid, the full procedural engine I've…
