I'm Oneeb, a Pakistani Pixel Artist, Writer and Game Dev currently studying a Masters in Animation, Games and Interactivity. I see games as a means to empower people, and to give them hope in difficult times.
This is #WhatAGameDevLooksLike
Hello friends, been a minute. Just letting you know that i've made a bluesky account (@oneebpixelart.bsky.social), and will eventually stop using this one. If you'd like to stay in touch, please do say hi over there!

Great peek into the writing process. Barks are so complex and time consuming that the last two games where they've been my job, they've been *almost my entire job*
Impact on a game when they're done well is immense. For ex, escalating stress levels in Darkest Dungeon 🤌🤌🤌
Hey all, been a while so figured i'd post two important updates. 1) I finished my masters degree! 2) My research paper from my finak semester got accepted into DiGRA Australia (Australia's biggest conference for research in Games and Interactive Media). So grateful.

A lot of game devs are dunking on this, but if you're not a game dev it's probably not actually obvious why. So I thought I'd take a moment to answer a little more thoughtfully in hopes of giving gamers a little more insight on what we do.
So I was having a chat with someone on twitter DMs and I got hit with the "cAnNoT cOnTiNuE uNlEsS yOu SuBsCrIbE tO BlUe" like what fkn nonsense is this

Eid Mubarak to all my friends who celebrate! This is probably the first Eid i've had that has been so calm (not rushing to meet people, etc etc) which, honestly, is quite nice.

If too many things cause ”screenshake” in your game, it’s no longer an effect. It’s just bad camera.
So Global Game Jam's done! Went great for my first go at a Jam, and we managed to pull together a pretty neat game! Special shoutout to @jtc_acevedo, @melonfarmgames and Venice for being amazing to work with! We'll definitely polish it up more and put it on itch soon!

Also i'm a stooge and I realised that I didn't put up a link to it anywhere, but in case you're interested, here it is:
globalgamejam.org/2023/games…
Just fyi it is fairly buggy but we'll be polishing it up and hopefully launching it on itch.io soon!
