I really like to previz all the major UI screens of a game early on to 'play-act' what functionality I need, before working in-engine.

Younger kid has just finished playing Roki. She's young enough that she'd forgotten most of the plot from when Chris played and is swearing it's the best game she's ever played or seen. I don't blame her in the least. Phenomenal game. Thanks @kanaratron.bsky.social !

Very pretty and chilled game by @polygontreehouse.bsky.social 😍👍🏻
Sat on some cushions and just listened to the looping music for about ten mins...before I realised that I needed to get on with playing the game!🤦🏻‍♂️
Well played, Polygon Treehouse...👏🏻😎

The key art for Mythwrecked (a British backpacker stands amongst greek gods on a beach) and Röki (a young girl and here brother run through the snow, looking scared as ravens fly overhead).

I only learnt what isekai meant when someone on Bluesky said that our first two indie games were in that genre!

Witchcraft. Here's an example of an iris sliding over the eye surface, rather than the eyeball rotating itself.

I may take a *few* liberties with human anatomy from time to time in our indie games.
