\"Game<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

It is time to mve focus to our new project. Codenamed Project Firefly, this new MetroidVania-like game, will mix getting new abilities, like a good old Metroid game, with trading items, like Dizzy games.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Rockbot was always very hard to come with assets, because pixel-art is very difficult, and we thanks a LOT people that contributed to the games, but for me, it is way easier to create concept arts like this one, using artificial intelligence, then just creating HD art in apps like Paint Tool Sai. While we will use AI to develop art, the character concepts are all made by my wife, AI is just a tool to expand upon that.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
