I added bouncy physics to certain locations in my game about exploring a living planet. Its way more fun then I expected it to be

Thank you, man! I really appreciate it!

I was mainly going for a general body horror theme, but now that you mention it, they do look pretty similar!

I still need to play Stray, I've heard good things about it

I made some really freaky looking eyes for my horror game set inside a planetary organism.

The store page for just went live yesterday: store.steampowered.com/app/3649050/...

Oh lord, he smoovin'!

A made this guy for my horror game, but he's more funny/cute than anything lol

A little snippet of the Gastric Depths in my upcoming horror game, Coagulation Station: Fleshfall 🫀

I'm finally getting into designing the environments for Coagulation Station: Fleshfall, and I'm really liking this area is turning out. Let me know you thoughts so far

I might have made the wrench a little too strong...

#gavedev #unrealengine #indiegame #coagulationstation

I'm working on some attack animations for the wrench in my upcoming game Coagulation Station: Fleshfall. I find myself randomly smacking stuff for fun lol

Encounter with an unidentified macro-organ; likely cardiac in nature...

Working on some meat textures for Coagulation Station 2. I imagine it's very humid down here...

Here's an early preview of the Gastric Depths, a new biome to be featured in the spinoff of my game Coagulation Station!

Happy #piday everyone! Here's a shot of the water in my 90s CGI game I've been making in #UnrealEngine for the past little while. The water at least uses #pi in it's math!
#indiedev #gamedev #screenshotsaturday #solodev

Here's a trippy filter I made while experimenting with Color LUTs in #UnrealEngine I was originally trying to match the color depth of some actual 90s renders, but I got a little carried away with what I could do lol

Here's a timelapse of the pulsating effects I've been working on for the sequel of sorts to my horror game Coagulation Station. I'm really liking how gross it's looking so far
#screenshotsaturday #indiedev #itchio #gamedev #UnrealEngine #indiegame

I modeled some weird 90s looking Donkey Kong-eque trees to go into the scene. It's some really basic stuff, but it's been a fun side project to work on. All of this is done in #UnrealEngine 5 btw

#gamedev #indiedev #solodev #90s #cgi

I've spent all morning tinkering around in #UnrealEngine trying to capture that old 80's-90's #cgi look. As a kid, I always was fascinated by those pre-rendered visuals, so I thought making a real time game in that style would be a lot of fun!

Hey everyone! Here's a cute little scene I made in my Frog Game to celebrate. I hope you all have a great Valentine's Day!

#indiedev #indiegames #gamedev #UnrealEngine #solodev #valentine

I'm working on a cheap light to use in my #UnrealEngine games going forward. Each is rendered with a special billboard material. I've been able to get over 2,000 overlapping lights in this scene while maintaining 120fps (normal point lights gave me <40fps) #gamedev #indiedev #indiegamedev #solodev

Love it!

Here's a screenshot I dug up of an old project I was working on a while ago. I really like the atmosphere in this shot; I might adapt it into my next project 👀 #gamedev #indiegame #indiedev #UnrealEngine

Over the span of 3 weeks, I spent my spare time making this little frog game as a surprise gift for my partner. The look on her face was priceless when I finally got to show it to her ❤️

You can try a demo of it here! thebigonioninstitute.itch.io/mr-frogs-win...

#gamedev #indiegame #UnrealEngine

Messing around making some gross materials in UE. I think this one turned out the best (worst?) #indiegame #gamedev #UnrealEngine
