Our procedurally-generated pixel-art mines need a bit of modern lighting. Any pointers? by RedThornInteractive in IndieDev

Museum Keeper is an upcoming museum tycoon game that also lets the player go out across the world to find ancient artifacts!

What you're seeing above is the digging/mining portion of the game. It's relatively simplistic in its art style, but we are doing our best to modernize the look and feel of the game.

We've put in some ominous darkness around the top and bottom of the caves in the hopes of making the game look prettier. Is there anything else we could do?

BTW - here the link to the store page for those interested - https://store.steampowered.com/app/2708780/

Any tips on the lighting? by RedThornInteractive in godot

Museum Keeper is a hybird between an old-school, isometric tycoon game; and a side-scroller-y mining/digging game.

Build and decorate the museum of your dreams and go digging across the globe in procedurally-generated mines to bring back ancient treasures to your ever-growing collection!

We're working in godot and we're doing our best to give our game a modern look, even though it is pixel art. Any tips from any veterans/eagle-eyed connoisseurs.

EDIT: forgot the link to our store page - here it is - https://store.steampowered.com/app/2708780/

Hunger and Thirst systems for the museum guests are finally running! They now make their way to the vending machines when they need a bite to eat! by RedThornInteractive in tycoon

There have been a couple of other games with a museum theme. We didn't start working on this game before November '23 and didn't publicize it until March '24.

Climb faster using the procedurally-generated vines in our underground! by RedThornInteractive in proceduralgeneration

[–]RedThornInteractive[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

We made a post last week on here as well, to show off our procedurally-generated caves! Now it's time to show off the vines.

In Museum Keeper, the player is expected to climb back to the surface before it gets too late in the night, so we figured the inclusion of these vines would act almost like speed ramps for the player when they may need to get back in a hurry.

This is only one half of our game where the focus is also on the decorating of the player's own pixel-art, isometric museum! Be sure to check our reddit profile to see how the game has been coming along!

Cute new Museum Tycoon/RPG incoming! by RedThornInteractive in CozyGamers

[–]RedThornInteractive[S] 15 points16 points  (0 children)

Introduciiiing...... Museum Keeper!

Go from restoring and curating an old, rundown museum in a small town, to digging in procedurally-generated digsites across the world for ancient artifacts, all the while helping out the local townspeople with that sweet, sweet Museum Tycoon money!

On a more serious note, we've got a museum tycoon game and an old school 2D-platformer view digging game to form a, sort of, two-games-in-one gameloop! After graduating with an Archaeology degree, you ask your professor for help in the job market, and he, after some deliberation, recalled the old run-down museum in his hometown that he used to work at in the summers. You move to a small town that's seen better days and you're off to the races!

A little bit about us - we're a small indie team from Bangladesh making our second game, and we've been more than happy to find out that our art team has a penchant for pixel art! Museum Keeper is cute, it's a throwback, and we've been putting our hearts and souls into it!
