Thanks to DeeKay-Deluxe, Feeniheelo and Thomanski respectively for their contributions.
Benefits have been moved to a membership, the minimum donation to receive all of them didn't changed and is still just $2.
I made this change to make it clearer for newcomers what benefits they will get if they decide to donate $2 or more, also to make donations of $1 possible for those who are not interested in the benefits.
For Discord users: from now on you should automatically receive your role on my server if you have your accounts linked. 2023-04-05 09:05:29 +0000 UTC View Post
Now you can automatically hide your status after a set period of time.
This was a request made by one of the members of my Discord server.
You always request for new features via the feedback form, or if you are a patron you can submit your request directly on the #devchat channel.

2022-12-21 23:18:55 +0000 UTC View PostThis is a small but important update. It fixes an issue with the code that handles changing clients for specific games.
This is necessary because Discord imposes a limit of 300 icons per client, now the app should be able to switch clients on the fly whenever necessary.

A few days I ago, I made a pixel art of Emerald and Ninny togheter. I decided to expand it and include some of my forgotten characters.
Azure, Emerald, Lila, Mariana and Lila together for the first time.
✨️ Animations and tilesets are included for download.
This is technically my first art commission here.
The .svg is reserved to the commissioner. You can download. The attachment includes a hi-res version of this art. You can find the sketch for this art on my pixiv.
A few days ago I started contributing to Pretendo Network as a designer, I started working on the design elements for their own version of the Mii Maker, I made over 300 icons. ✨️
It took me a while mostly because people seemed more interested in updates for Rich Presence U, but I didn't put Ninty Launcher aside, here's a first look at the new version!
This first preview shows the new HOME menu. much more faithful to the Switch, right? ✨
But that i...

Introducing a new character: Azure!
I made her design a few days ago. Here's the original sketch for this art:
As you may have noticed, there are three new different tiers. I'm making this change so that I can commit more to the different content I make in a way that's fair to me and the people who support me here.
As an example, normally I don't do commissions, but from now on for Solis tier patrons I will be accepting requests and doing them without any additional costs, that can be any kind of work I'm experiencied with: digital art, pixel art, coding or any type of des...

You can play it for free on GameJolt. ✨
It features an endless single player mode and a versus multiplayer mode.
★ I also wrote an entire article talking about the development of the game, which you can read here:

I am now hosting the game on itch.io, so you can play it directly from your browser. When the development is finished I'll be hosting it on GameJolt for everyone to play.

If you have any problems accessing the page, comment on this post or send me a message and I will generate a new key. ✨
Now you can play using just the pointer (it is still possible to play using the keys if that is your preference).
★ As a bonus I've included a collection of color palettes, you can change it by holding shift and pressing one of the arrow keys. You can only do that while in the title screen.
Next preview will feature a multiplayer mode and a new character.
This is my game for YoYo's GameJam, it is still work in progress. There are few things I'll be including soon:
This version uses a completely random pattern but I'll make it more predictable to avoid unnecessary frustration, I've play-tested it enough to ensure that it is humanly possible to play when you reach maximum speed even with the random...

This is a prototype for the upcoming v0.7.0, I made this new design to accommodate some of the new features that will be coming with this new version.
Hi-res on my DeviantArt.
Ninty Launcher and Rich Presence U can now be downloaded via itch.io. All future releases will be primarily published there. You can even submit your review if you want. 🎀
I will keep publishing the source code on my GitHub as usual.
I finally gave her a name, Emerald.
I was planning on making a colored version of this art since the day I posted the original sketch, unfortunately I was too busy coding and making sprites, but today I finally did it.
You can find the linework on my pixiv.
Every time you duplicate something in your project in GameMaker Studio 2, for some reason it keeps an unused copy of that asset's metadata, if you duplicate this same asset again two unused copies will be kept, if you duplicate it once again you will be left with 3 copies and so on... you get where this is going, right?
Doing this multiple times can make your project unnecessarily big, and since there are many small files, it can become a problem when importing / exporting your en...

Rich Presence U v0.6 is here, featuring a brand new interface.
It is considerably smaller compared to the previous one and now it is possible to resize it to any size, not to mention it has a dark theme 🌚
I did this mainly with UX improvements in mind, buttons and options are more responsive and easier to understand.
But if you still prefer the old interface, you can continue using v0.5, I...

If you're curious to know who Mariana is, she is a character I created a long time ago to help my moderation team to know how to deal in a spam situation in any of the public chats of SMN Discord, here's the original guide:
My repository for small open-source projects has been updated (previously named as Nin★Minigames), now I will also be including my extensions for GMS 1.4 and 2.0.
I took the opportunity to include a new revised version of audio_loop_sound, this extension allows you to use sampled loop points on any audio without having to split it in two files. I also ported to GameMaker Studio 2 (GMS1.4 version has been updated too), both source codes are available in the
The source code for Rich Presence U is now available on my GitHub!
If you don't know what Rich Presence U is: it's a tool that allows you to display Wii U and Nintendo Switch games on your Discord profile.
I programmed the GUI and arranged all icons for Wii U games (Switch support ...

Thanks so much for the support! yesterday I got a computer using a friend's credit card, now it's here, I managed for a lower value than expected (R$1.480 in BRL, today in USD currency is $365), since it was pre-owned.
Thanks to this and your initial help I will be able to complete the payment in the future including my own part, you don't need to renew your monthly payment cycle.
In a few weeks I'll be back with the development of my current projects, since I need to buy a SATA-U...
