My game is called Creature Keeper, and it's a Top-Down Action-Adventure RPG with a focus on befriending creatures and fighting alongside them. Assemble your dream team, and explore the world to find new friends, loot, materials, and magical pocket garden seeds.
Creature Keeper has been my pet project since I first got into gamedev as a hobbyist. I started out with a very basic zelda-like, and I didn't know how to do pixel art, program, compose, or anything. Since then, the game has grown beyond that, and my skills have expanded into learning basically everything and more.
I've been able to get by, making pixel art for a living, but now I've finally got an idea worthy of bringing to the world. Creature Keeper is on Kickstarter and you can find more information and a Playable Demo at : https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/creaturekeeper/creature-keeper
I would be very thankful to receive your support!

I love these types of games! Great work.
TheRealPumpkinQueen
Love the animations, they are gorgeous!! You are a talented artist, definitely gonna look out for this one
Fervir
Thanks! I believe that great animations are essential for great feeling combat, so with my interest in combat mechanics, they shine brightly
TheRealPumpkinQueen
Absolutely :) my brother was always very serious about that too, I wish he'd have kept going with it

Can I friend the skeletons?
Fervir
Yes, you can befriend the skeletons!

Iii think it looks like a cute game. But I also think new designers need to move the industry forward rather than adhering to old customs.
Fervir
Hopefully the mechanics I'm bringing to the table are unique and refreshing enough. I think the Pocket Garden is my most innovative so far
LadyCottonHead
If it's the dream, the fact that you've had the initiative to do this is unique and refreshing enough, and I wish you all the luck with it.

Well, this is going on my kickstarter list. I’ll look over it more closely later :)
DarkTemplarian
Tried out the demo. Really smooth controls! Beautiful art. ?
Fervir
Thanks for checking out the demo! It took a couple of releases to get it playing smoothly and mostly bug free.
BaseOfExclusion
Backed! Can't wait to play it!
Fervir
Thanks for your support!

Let's say I wanna get into gamedev too as a hobby, how and where would I start?
Fervir
Get started like how I did. I just downloaded Construct 2 and made my little crappy sprites move around. That was enough to make me happy
vagimite
Backed. Can't wait for the release but more importantly props to your hard work and dedication. It gives me hope for my own project
Fervir
Just keep making games! Get them out there and refine, refine, refine; both your game and your skills. Good luck!
vagimite
Thanks man.

What language?
Dementoidz
Looks like English.
Fervir
Just english so far. Other options will be looked at when I have more time and resources
akbrewer
I meant programming. Should have specified
Fervir
Oh lol, this is made in Construct 2
ukjaybrat
Lol I thought you meant programming language and then thought I was the idiot when everyone responded with English.
rafapaluza
Backed - good luck!

Ever consider making a discord server to help keep folk up to date with things? Or have any social media to post updates and such?
Fervir
I have both Discord : ps://discordapp.com/invite/hf9UZsQ">https://discordapp.com/invite/hf9UZsQ Twitter : https://twitter.com/blankthevidya

I remember seeing your posts about this over the last year or so, it's been looking promising--definitely jumping in on the Kickstarter.
Fervir
You probably caught wind of it on twitter! I post a lot of updates on there whenever something cool happens
DoctorWhoovesReads
Amazing job. As a programmer I can see you've carefully crafted your mechanics! I can't back but I'll give an upvote to help!
Fervir
Thanks for your support! I've always been interested in tight battle mechanics, but now that interest has carried on to higher level stuff!
Ceracuse
Just curious why you can't back.. is it conflict of interest?

Some people (like me) have negative money. Every dollar from my paycheck needs to go to paying off debt. For me it’s because I was 1/

Unemployed for a while. Other people might have had unexpected medical bills or paying for a funeral or car repairs or anything really.

Or student loan debt

Sorry, I didn’t mean for that to sound snarky if it did :) I’m just over here pity partying
FeelTheMightyCrotch
What system?
Fervir
It's gonna be for PC first, but I am looking into options for getting it on the Nintendo Switch!
NothingEven
I'd play the hell outta the android version.
BullfrogStormcroak
Split screen co-op for PC?
CloD0
Linux support?
treeburner000
Switch would be a great choice. Lots of good indies, without all the trash. Hope to see you there soon, man. You've sold one copy, already.
Fervir
Thanks for your support! Every pledge helps to get me in a good position to deliver a Switch port ASAP!
treeburner000
You got it.
BurntAioli
That's enough for me! If I back for a copy, would I be able to wait for the Switch port? (Dont have a PC)
Fervir
I will send out the Kickstarter survey a few months before the game is released asking you which version of the game you want, PC or Switch
