I agree. Thanks for checking it out!

Actually I feel like my trailer could be more exciting and juicy

Ahh good point! Thanks 🙏

There's just something innately funny about physics goofs

As a creator, sometimes you walk a fine line between genius and insanity.

And maybe hitting jellyfish through hoops has crossed that line and entered firmly into bonkers territory

fbx-parser This parser will parse FBX text files and convert them into a JavaScript-Object structure.. Latest version: 2.1.3, last published: 4 years ago. Start using fbx-parser in your project by running `npm i...

It looks like there's a JS library to parse them

www.npmjs.com/package/fbx-...

But it looks super old

Oh damn, that would be SWEET

Ok maybe I'm going overboard on the fog now

I regret nothing.

Volumetric Frog sounds like a techno album

Been toying with a volumetric fog for my city levels

Sooo not people on Reddit then 🤣

(... so are indie devs actually just vampires?)

People on the internet have said a game needs "juice" so it gets googled and then "content creators" capitalise off that.

Juice is just feedback. Give the player satisfying feedback. But to understand what the player wants and to playtest is a lot harder than just making the screen shake.

Come and hang out in the Discord!

I've dropped the latest pre-release demo in there, and there's regular updates and banter ✨ Come and talk about games, game dev and play some goofy pinball

Welcome! Plenty of pinball here ❤️

🍄Improved the mushroom spawn animation ✨

I could watch them pop up all day

#indiedev #gamedev #pinball #animation

Yep, luckily I only have 11 more images to do (out of 13!)🤣

Best of luck!

I'm actually gonna be out of the country at a Coheed and Cambria concert so it's hopefully not too stressful a time lol

awww yeah

Generative AI sucks ... my game hasn't used any of that crap.

My approach has been to treat every bug like a gift. And also some of them are so hilarious I’m glad they showed me!

... it's literally just a lerp between two colours using the UV coords

Added a "tutorial" haha

Also it is the year 2025 and Unity doesn't do UI gradients out of the box?

(I will share the very simple shader graph below!)

If you want to come up with neat ideas, be sure you're feeding your brain an eclectic diet of weird stuff, seek out interesting experiences, and then go take a 5 hour shower.

Blender Pro Tip: The default Torus can double up as a car tire with zero effort!

Oh yeah the lack of oncall is nice 😌

What’s one valuable lesson you’ve learnt from #gamedev?

For me, coming from a backend web development background, it’s knowing that once a game is out there there’s no live updating or pushing fixes 😅

Damn I got so used to just pushing hot fixes and migrating broken data without users noticing 🤣
