Petal Quest is Now Available!

Petal Quest

My game Petal Quest is now available for purchase! Since it’s my first game, I set the retail price to $1.99, and am offering an introductory sale of 50% off until the end of July! I also need to sell at lease 5 copies by the end of the semester.

Petal Quest is an arcade-style side-scrolling brawler about a flower who must save it’s garden from being invaded by weeds. The weeds will stop at nothing to defeat the flowers and take over all of the Earth’s gardens.

Petal Quest screenshotThe game features a regular arcade/story mode and a score attack mode, where you can play each stage individually to try to beat your high score.

There are five different stages with different garden/nature themes. It supports both gamepad and keyboard input.

I wanted to make a side-scrolling beat ’em up game, but I also wanted to do something different and more unique. I thought the idea of a flower having to save it’s garden was a fun concept. I think there is a place in the market more female-oriented games (that aren’t about babies, cooking, or dressing up).

It can be purchased directly from itch.io and from my new website for my game studio, Nybiru.com.

Tomodachi Life: Princess Peach QR Code

Do you prefer the original Princess Peach to Petch? I’ve got you covered! Here is a QR code for my Mii version of Princess Peach. Use her in Tomodachi Life or any other 3DS game that is compatible with Mii characters!

In my game, Princess Peach is married to Sheldon Cooper. I’m still waiting for them to have a baby, though. I’m not sure that Sheldon knows how, and Princess Peach is too lady-like to show him…

Tomodachi Life: Petch and Lonk QR Codes

Have you ever wanted your own Petch and Lonk in Tomodachi Life? Now you can with these QR codes! These miis are recreations of the Petch from Texas and Lonk from Pennsylvania Miis who were first discovered in StreetPass Plaza and were circulated around the internet.

They also work great in Super Smash Bros if you have unlocked the Princess Peach crown for Petch and bought the Link outfit DLC for Lonk. The QR codes should work in Mii Maker as well if you would rather have them available to use in any of your Mii-compatible games.

Lonk from Pennsylvania QR Code Mii

I made this version of Petch, and Lonk was made by Kirbiti (I don’t remember where I got the original QR code, so I’ve generated my own here).

And for your additional entertainment, here is a small photo gallery featuring Petch and Lonk!

edit: I had the wrong QR code on the image for Petch. It’s fixed now.

Tomodachi Life Miis!

Miis!

While browsing Miiverse, I came across a post from a Tomodachi Life player showing off all of their Miis. I see a number of familiar faces on this island!

Thank you, Midna, for adding my Miis to your island! I’m glad you enjoy them!

I see my Sailor Venus, Ness, Krampus, Santa Claus, and Mrs. Claus in the screen shot!

Has anyone else used my QR codes? I’d love to see screenshots of my Miis having fun on your island!

If you’d like to follow me on Miiverse, my username is NightDriver2600 and my display name is Nii.

PS: My side-scrolling brawler game (working title: Petal Quest) will be finished soon. If all goes according to plan, it will be released in early May. I will post an announcement here when it is ready. The website for Nýbiru Studio will finally go live around the same time as well.

Tomodachi Life: Thor from Stargate SG-1 QR Code

Thor - Stargate SG-1 | Tomodachi Life

Everyone’s favorite Asgard, Thor from Stargate SG-1 is ready to beam down to your Tomodachi Life island!

I made him when I was thinking of all my favorite strange looking, non-human characters that I could make for Tomodachi Life. I’m trying to get the weirdest looking baby miis possible to send out into the world via Streetpass. So far, Thor is still single on my island.

He has a UFO head accessory. You can remove it if you’d rather he looked more serious, but I thought it was fun!

Tomodachi Life: Slender Man QR Code

Slender Man | Tomodachi Life

Welcome Slender Man to your Tomodachi Life island… if you dare! What creepy things will happen after your island’s first Slender Man sighting? Will your other islanders be safe from this internet legend?

He comes with a creepy background and a distinguished suit.

Come back tomorrow for a QR code for Stargate SG-1’s Thor.

Tomodachi Life: Villager and Isabelle Animal Crossing QR Codes

Villager and Isabelle Tomodachi Life Animal Crossing

Here are the QR codes for my Tomodachi Life Mii recreations of Isabelle and Villager from Animal Crossing.

I based my Villager on the pink haired version of Villager that appears in Super Smash Bros for 3DS/Wii U (which is the only female version that doesn’t look awful. There is also only one decent male version. Why did they make so many horrible-looking Villagers in Animal Crossing?).

And of course I had to make everyone’s favorite doggy, Isabelle. Look how adorable!

I’m sorry if I didn’t make my Villager psychotic enough!

Who else do you want to see in Tomodachi Life?

Tomodachi Life: “Mrs.” Garrison QR Code

Mrs. Janet Garrison

Analytics suggests that everyone wants more Tomodachi Life character QR codes, so here’s one more! I promised Mrs. Garrison back when I posted my Mr. Hankey Tomodachi Life QR code, and here she is! Isn’t she beautiful? Her catch phrase is “I’m a woman.”

That’s all I’m going to say about this particular character, least I end up with keywords that I don’t necessarily want associated with my website leading to this page.

What other South Park characters would you like to see for Tomodachi Life?

I’ll post Isabelle and Villager from Animal Crossing next!

Tomodachi Life: Krampus QR Code

Krampus Mii Tomodachi Life

If you’ve never heard of the Krampus, be prepared to add this delightful character to your family’s holiday traditions! In Germanic folklore, Krampus is St. Nicholas’s devilish companion. Whereas good old St. Nick brings gifts to the good little boys and girls, Krampus takes care of the naughty children. While Santa Claus is happy with offerings of milk and cookies, Krampus would prefer to be offered schnapps.

I thought he would be a great addition to my Tomodachi Life Island to go along with Santa Claus and Mrs. Claus. I needed more crazy looking characters.

Even Krampus is getting into the Christmas spirit with his festive holiday interior!

I think Krampus should become a more popular Christmas character in the United States, right along side Santa Claus. What do you think?

Have you been nice this year? Or will Krampus have to visit your house?

Tomodachi Life: Santa Claus and Mrs. Claus QR Codes

Merry Christmas! I made Santa Claus and Mrs. Claus Mii characters for Tomodachi Life. They both live in festive holiday interiors with Christmas trees year-round (unless you decide to change their interiors).

I made the original QR codes with them both wearing matching “ugly holiday sweaters” before I found the Santa Suit outfit in the “seasonal” section of the clothing store (yay for scheduled posting!), so I remade the codes with the Santa Suit outfits, but I’ll keep the ugly holiday sweater codes here too, just in case anyone prefers that outfit.

Have them both move in and see if you can get them to start dating, get married, and make cute little gray-haired baby Miis!

Check back tomorrow if you would like Krampus to move into your apartment building. He’s great for making sure your child Miis stay in line!
