I'm building a site dedicated to pixel art: themed contests, community voting, galleries, and social features for following and discovering artists.

Need a handful of pixel artists willing to test it out before launch and give feedback on the experience. Doesn't take long — just use it, try to break it, and let me know what you think.  Appreciate it!

Happy to hear you managed to beat it and with an impressive 92% great job. See you in the next mission!

What would be your prefered keyboard mapping for a controller? I would be happy to implement support for it

Hello fellow gamers! In the last update I shared a first look at my game in the video provided. Today I want to show two updates I have been working on the last week.

Since Samus power suit fails on decent onto planet R23B the first thing Samus must do is to find the light beam

Whats new here is a menu that can be used to inspect samus power suit 

Another new feature is the map, this is how it looks up to this point in game.

Thats it, Feedback is welcome. Tell me what you want to see next!

Hello fellow game devs! I’m excited to share what I’ve been working on for the past few months. This is a love letter to Nintendo’s original Metroid, released by Nintendo R&D1. Huge thanks to the amazing sprite and sound rippers who made this possible!

While the game looks much like the original, it introduces  faster gameplay and brand new mechanics. Eventually, I plan to add a map as well. The world itself is completely new.

Hello fellow indie devs,

This game isn’t exactly new, but I haven’t made a post about it here before so I’m doing it now.

I created this game because I was craving loot-drop, progressive tower exploration, inspired by dungeon crawlers like Heroes of the Monkey Tavern and loot-based games that use a Diablo-like rarity system. It’s also very focused on unlocking skills one at a time and maintaining constant progression, with the main goal being to reach the top of a tower.

There’s also a story baked into the game, but it’s not the main driving force. Hopefully someone finds this interesting and gives it a try. Thanks!

I’m looking for a crouching and shooting pose, kind of like when Samus jumps and shoots, but not exactly.

Hello! I’m currently working on a Metroid game using graphics from this resource:
https://www.spriters-resource.com/nes/metroid/

The game is not a remake of the original Metroid, I’m designing my own world but I’m bothered by one limitation in particular, that Samus cannot crouch. Of course there are no sprites for it in the original sprite sheets and I’m reaching out here to see if anyone is interested in helping out making a sprite of Samus crouching.

Any help would be greatly appreciated, thanks!
