I'm going to occasionally post some development gifs and images for Goldy Blocks Inc. starting with this one! This is the earliest gif I have of the project. The internal name for the game was Block_Builder, and this image is literally called "block_builder_0.gif" You can see I'm using sprites from Tower of Medusa to prototype it. The crumbly rock texture actually made it all the way into the release of the game, but it became the backdrop to the building section!

Another funny coincidence I didn't notice until now is that the shape being created is made of silver blocks while the un-attached blocks are golden. This is the exact opposite of how it is in the final game! At this early point I didn't even have an idea for how the game would look or what the setting would be, so part of me wonders if the placeholder golden blocks influenced me subconsciously.

I'll post more gifs soon, and after the game has been out for a little bit, I'll post some unused concepts/sprite/art!
