Today we continue our project by adding card resource costs to the player cards!

Unreal Engine 5 Game Development: Card Resource Cost Execution

Recently added the ability to aim the orbit attack! It was rough wrangling the physics on this one. #godot #screenshotsaturday #indiedev #gamedev #solodev

Starting a Village from Zero – Devlog #9

I’m developing a miniscape × roguelite × survival game ✨✨

I decided to completely redesign the UI!
The title screen and settings screen have been updated.

Compare it with my previous posts and see what has changed ✨✨

Howdy #ScreenshotSaturdays , here's some tidbits from the tutorial level with our cowboy teach, Prick the Cactus.

👋 Updated card combat: Added card decay to keep board rotating.

#screenshotsaturday #gamedev #indiedev #solodev

Bringing my prototype together exposed a big problem: Engine stalls in card combat. Instead of rewriting anything, I made a small fix: Card Decay and the whole loop started to click.

Working on game assets again. Let's go! #digitalart #gameart #indiedev #gamedev #solodev #art

Stressing the player just enough in a precise way

Currently, 60 seconds seems fine for that, with the last 10 seconds being obnoxious

And the grid tokens won't be as explicit in their value

Need a way to push back the clock tho

For this #ScreenshotSaturday I wanted to show some mechanics I’m working on for #DinoCleanup! Each type of goop has unique properties, and as you clean it up you can overdrive the vacuum for cool new effects!

Check out my latest devlog video where I discuss the design and intent behind card leveling and progression in my learning project.

Let me know what you think!

Unreal Engine editor showing a Rule Forge rule group for battle completion, with effects for rewards, stat increment, level transition, and moving the player to last known transform.

No visuals yet, so today’s #screenshotsaturday is a dev screenshot.

This rule chain runs when a battle completes: Rewards → Stats → Transition → Teleport Player

A top-down layout diagram for "Area 1" of a game. It features a node-and-path navigation puzzle starting at a "Base Camp" circle at the bottom and leading to a "Story Encounter #1 (Mt. Filiad)" circle at the top. The map is filled with various icons: red squares for Enemy Encounters, dark red circles for Bear Traps, yellow diamonds for Items (like Scrolls and Keys), and purple crossed circles for Bridges. A legend on the left lists items such as "Bridge Rune" and "Scroll: Lore."

Here's the map for Area 1. There are optimal routes and less optimal routes.

👋 In my tactical RPG, instead of grinding XP, progression comes from information.

The map is a navigation puzzle that turns exploration into decision making instead of just grinding.

Screenshot of a card effect configuration panel for the “Magick Cube” card. It shows three possible effects: damage, debuff, or heal. Each with a 50% probability and configurable targeting options.

👋 Here’s a look at the Magick Cube card.

It will either:
• Damage the enemy
• Debuff the enemy
• Heal you

When you play card games, do you prefer determinism or RNG?

Following on from yesterday's day of polish, here's some beauty shots of Tables 1, 2 and 3. Table 3 is still very WIP but getting there, and soon will be moving onto move onto the final table!
I'm so.. damn.. close!!

Hey! Posted a new devlog.

I balanced my card game by gathering data from hundreds of bot vs bot simulations.

Here’s how I did it: minigamedevweb.web.app/blog/arden-c...

#indiedev #gamedesign #ue5 #devlog

Thanks! 😁 This is my first time trying this approach on a real prototype. I’m hoping most of the game can be built this way.

Here’s a clip of the ruleset driving the behavior in the first clip.

I kept baking too much logic into my actors.

This prototype pushes behavior into data-defined rules instead. Now the actors stay dumb and the system stays flexible.

Here’s the result in world: Actors just emit events.

Landscape painting my beloved. I love when Unreal Engine's technical systems are finally ready for art!!!

Diagram for Base Camp Flow

Morning!

Continuing to build up my prototype’s overworld this week. Starting in Miro to map out the flow and make sure progression, dialogue, and gates make sense before I build it in unreal.

#solodev #gamedev #gamedesign

Here are some WIP shots from Unreal Engine 5 from this weekends progress

Ive been focusing on shaders for the foliage and reworking some of the lighting and doing some Designer work on the Birch bark

I will be taking the trees into Zbrush and sculpting some detail onto the trees

Made a roguelike where every weapon has it's own skill, which one is your favourite?

Here's a little breakdown on the combat camera system I've been working on. I decided to narrate it because it's a lot of info.

Was looking for a candle, found a way to test the baseball bat

Working on implementing some more hacking / stealth elements into my game. The 'Ping Sweep' will reveal hidden wire connections and also display the view-cone of the security cameras.

Finished up equipment swapping things ~

Got pistol-to-rifle weapon swapping working pretty smoothly. Had to make sure the animations blended into each other well. I might increase their swap speeds in the future
