I just released my new game Ultra Void yesterday! It's a inverse minesweeper incremental game about humanity facing the heat death of the universe.

The launch went pretty well and I'm glad people are enjoying it!

Added a spark effect with the amount proportional to the damage, as a natural way to gauge the damage output.

One interesting thing working with ray tracing is that I constantly felt like the lighting is wrong. Like how a big laser beam made the environment darker, but itโ€™s actually physically correct because it actually obscured other light sources.

Very happy with the animation system this time around! Zero key frame, fully procedural. Can respond instantly to any player input, and adapt to any movement of NPC's!

Probably due to contact damage. Also Nine Sols is more about stand and fight and you can dish out big damages ending fights quickly, while Hollow Knight is about dodge and poke and is more of a marathon.

Itโ€™s a game about exploring what is a jigsaw to the fullest. I finished both Strange Jigsaw and ร–oo that weekend and itโ€™s maybe my best weekend of this year!

Down one notch with 2470GM2 should still be affordable enough and goes mostly there. ngl tho being able to get stunning nighttime kitten photos with just one notch more aperture feels great (shot with 135GM)

Forgot to mention you should have a key lying somewhere in your inbox if youโ€™ve got time to check it out :) would be glad to know your thoughts on it even if it didnโ€™t make it into a video!

Take your time! Youโ€™ll get there eventually, and you donโ€™t have to do it alone.

Game dev is hard and remember to ask for help when needed, find the games you love and see if thereโ€™s interview/devlog around or just ask the developers how they did it and learn from it :)
