It looks great, I have it wishlisted. But ehhh... it'd be nice if you did add some accessibility options for the text. My eyes aren't that good anymore. ^^;;
when i play the game, I better have my own home where i can collect all the pets I purchase too XD. it'd be cool if a few pets changed colours based on the performance of the minigame/challenge sequence.
@mikeuk666 you may be able to colorshift your screen, this would also change the color pallet. However accessibility should be thought of. Can't wait to see this.
Thank you so much! At the time we started, we didn't anticipate it'd end up being over 3 years before a big reveal - so many times I wanted to be making videos and talking about this along the way 😭
Brandon, as you already know I'm a big fan of your work and the channel. The 8bit and 16bit eras are my favorite in all of gaming, so it was a lot of fun translating these characters based on your sprite art. Props to you and Danny. Everything has come together amazingly and I'm honored to have been a part of the project. Thanks again!
Nuri! Thank you so much 😊 Part of my love for that era was seeing the artwork of the game cover, and flipping through the various illustrations within a game booklet. Your ability to interpret the character designs through illustration really completes that vision for our game; it's exactly the perfect look for this world, and such a privilege to have your work on this 🌸
Thanks for your support dude, always! Wishing you the best as well - I love how we've both got flower-based games in the works; it's the beginning of a nice garden lol 😌🌻🌸
@@BJGpixel I know, I love that!!! Eventually the flower based games can combine into a smash bros like fighting game and I’m here for it 🤣 Super soil bros 🌻🌼
Long time viewer here, and I've always thought, "He is such a talented pixel artist - he should make games!" And now here it is! How amazing! I'd love to play it! Congratulations!
Bro yes! I remember your first video and now you have come to this! So glad you have been able to make a way with your skills in way that makes you happy. Proud of you man. Keep it up!
THATS INCREDIBLE! Everytime I watched one of your videos, I'm always thinking about how great a game made by you would look like. You're not disappointing. Congratulations and good luck on this new journey!
This game looks GORGEOUS Brandon! I've always loved how you used limited color pallets in your art, but having that translated to an entire game is something truly special. There are many modern retro inspired pixel art games out there nowadays, but I feel like they tend to gravitate to using too many colors which makes the different art assets feel disjointed from one another. Even though your color pallet is so limited, the way you use those colors makes it feel like there are dozens of colors on screen (especially since you included those two accent colors), while also making everything feel so cohesive and purposeful. And the actual game and story look to be incredibly charming of course. I am absolutely playing this game when it releases, and buying a physical switch copy if it comes out on that.
Such a cool story! Big congrats to you guys, I'm super excited to play it! I'd love to do a let's play of it, the art style is right up my alley. I'm keeping an eye out for the release!!!
Riding the motorcycle looks so smooth, im so impressed & just for that alone imagine that the gameplay feels super satisfying. the pet minigames look incredibly charming too
This is so amazing as a pixel art addict I highly applaud your creativity, wonderful videos and your beautiful game! I love and wish listed it and can't wait to try it! Keep on creating cause we enjoy all that you do! cheers and congratz on your first game!
I'll preface this with your game looks super cute and I'm definitely looking forward to playing it upon release. Secondly, I just want to thank you for all the helpful information you've passed on through your videos. Your channel has been the number one source for pixel art motivation/info over the last year of working on my own little projects. Again, thank you Brandon, and I hope Petal Runners crushes it!
awesome news! Been a big fan of your pixel art videos. When I first saw the bike animation I immidiately went back and paused each frame having noticed the fluiditiy of the movement in between, especially front wheel! So cool to then see you mention and show the 16 sprites !
Everything about this is so amazing. I’m so happy for y’all and I’m really looking forward to being able to get it!! I rarely use Steam these days but I would absolutely make time to play this. I literally love everything about this video. ❤
Ive followed your work for ages now, and it is so cool to see you do your own ip and universe with your unique artstyle and workflow, really looking foward to this! Wishing you both the best of luck in this
This game looks very polished. It would be nice to see more of the mechanics and how you interact with the game world. It's so rare to see an indie game devlog that isn't a "cozy" game. I can definitely see all of your creative influences. I'll be adding this to my wishlist.
Every time you posted one of your videos, especially the various cyberpunk stalls and shops, I thought "man why isnt anyone turning this into a game?". I can't express in text alone how excited this makes me!
Not usually my style of game. I’ve been a fan of your work for a long time. I’m gonna buy it just because it’s your artwork in moving pixels, interactive and how much work you put in! Congratulations!
I really like the way it looks when you do that "broken perspective" at the top of the map, where you can't go any further, and you can see the horizon. I have tried but it just doesn't work as well in true isometric
All the tutorials and lessons and exercises on pixel art had to lead to something. Now we know what it is. I wish you and your partner all the luck in the world with your game.
I just noticed that your Cyberpunk Apothecary uses a very similar color scheme, AND has a major flower motif, AND has a cyberpunk aesthetic... Coincidence? This looks fantastic, though. Really excited to give it a shot when it releases
The moment we've all been waiting for! Dude, on the art side of things you're already professional. That little bit of coding can't stop you. It looks fantastic
I was watching during Summer Game Fest and said Wow that looks a lot like Brandon Greer's art! But he doesn't make games...IT IS BRANDON GREER'S ART!! lol That was a really fun reveal and I'm glad to see you working on a game.
This premise wouldn't work as a cartoon even though it already looks super cute as one just watching one kid visit people and pamper their virtual pet until it's ready to come out of the device isn't a show. That makes me wonder how fun this would actually be to play. Maybe, like you'd expect from a cartoon, something could occasionally go wrong leading to aditional gameplay. Mabe the device breaks or the pet comes out cranky and scares it's owner nothing super bad because you're trying to keep the game chill and relaxing which I thank your for but now the houses have a random chance at some exciting extra gameplay.
I have kept you in particular waiting for so much longer than 3 years 😂 Thanks for all your years of support my friend, cannot wait for you to get to play! ✌️😄🌸
@@BJGpixel The pleasure is all mine! I can't wait for it to be available. Ever since I saw the material on the live stream, the game landed on my wishlist! 🤘🤩🤘 🎉🥰
2:43 Maybe it's because I'm Australian and I'm used to hearing "fox" pronounced differently but I definitely thought you were about to say "a cute little f***er" lol
somehow the start of the story reminded me of anime called 'Plastic memories' but now i know it is a different one, But it seems like a good game to play. hope that it release very soon
Now i know why i shouldnt have skipped the indie game part in SGF, this game looks so fun its exactly my type i started doing pixel art and watched ur channel only like 2 days ago, and making a game like this is my u could say goal. this type of games would be dead by the time i get good but who cares lol
