YouTube video by Dragon Dropper Eridani Survivors Gameplay Demo - Purple Nebula

I posted a new gameplay demo video for Eridani Survivors. Launches in three days! www.youtube.com/watch?v=byUR... #survivorslike #roguelite

I'm one of those people incapable of understanding the appeal of regurgitating average shit. It will never make sense.

I don't know that I'll ever be able to make PRETTY blueprints, but at least now I'm at a point where writing them is almost as comfortable as writing code. An example from the settings screen in Solward. #unreal #unrealengine #gamedev

Error packaging my UE5.6 project that uses metahuman I had the same issue and for me it helped to make the following change in the file UE_5.6\Engine\Plugins\Animation\DNACalib\DNACalib.uplugin. Original: { “Name”: “DNACalibModule”, “Type”: “Runtim...

I ran into an issue building an Unreal 5.6 project with a MessageLog dependency error. It's a bug in Unreal with one of the internal modules and this fixed it. forums.unrealengine.com/t/error-pack... #unrealengine #ue56

Do you have a gamedev hill you want to die on? For me it's the turn-based RPG Solward, which will be my main project after Eridani Survivors. It's not a huge game, but figuring out the structure, mechanics, and level design is a prerequisite to all of the larger games I have planned. #gamedev #rpg

Steam Store Steam is the ultimate destination for playing, discussing, and creating games.

The three dungeon crawlers I've released are now available as a bundle on Steam. store.steampowered.com/bundle/57366... #rpg #dungeoncrawler #drpg

I finished and uploaded the soundtrack to Eridani Survivors today. It's coming out on streaming services August 15th. 😁#gamedev #gamesoundtrack

I created portraits for the last 3 unlockable pilots in Eridani Survivors today - Miguel, Sebastian, and Toby. #gamedev #survivorslike

YouTube video by Jason Champion (Game Developer) Hilarious Unreal Mistake - Using The Character as a Mouse Cursor

I had a "happy accident" - using a character as a mouse cursor. Oops. www.youtube.com/watch?v=79gk... #gamedev #unrealengine

I tried some grid toolkits/assets from the Fab marketplace and none work how I want for the tactical grid in Solward, so I'm building a custom one. Starting from some tutorials, but knowing the code inside out will be better in the long run. #unreal #gamedev

I finally have a face shape that I like for Kali Kovalenko. Still need to get better hair, though. #metahuman #gamedev

YouTube video by Relentless Games Remove all UE5.6 Metahuman underwear in 1 minute. Metawardrobe Episode 25

Relentless Games JUST posted a video that solves my issue. YAY! www.youtube.com/watch?v=ePqV...

This gigantic MetaHuman underwear is just silly. I can't dress a character in shorts and a tank top without having their (non-hideable as far as I know) underwear sticking out from under their clothing. #metahuman #ue5 #unrealengine

I didn't realize they had that. Nice!

You speak German and English, yes? German is my 4th language, and I'm very bad at it, but if I could tag posts as "in German" maybe I'd have incentive to practice more... I don't know what the best solution would be, only know that we don't have it.

A thing that this and most social media sites lack for people who speak 2+ languages - tagging a post as being in a certain language, and filtering a person's posts based on language. There are a TON of bi-or-more-linguals who want to post in multiple languages without losing people. #bsky #language

LOL, since that's against Steam's policy that the title must be readable on teh capsule, it's definitely not the first version posted (because it would have been rejected).

Eridani Survivors - Eridani Survivors Updated - Steam News Adds new music and gameplay changes.

I released an update to the Eridani Survivors demo today that includes new music, a larger playfield, and a bunch of gameplay improvements. store.steampowered.com/news/app/339... #gamedev #survivorslike

Every time I visit LinkedIn I feel so grossed out afterward. Like I've been coated in a layer of SLIME. It's wild that there's a site that is effectively a competition for who can act the most like a "brainwashed corporate drone" and/or "AI propagandist shill". Ick. #linkedin #socialmedia

I'm hard at work in my chair implementing Steam achievements for my game, while Gato Tom is hard at work in his chair doing whatever this is. #steam #gamedev #cats

I added lifetime kill and coin totals to the game over screen in Eridani Survivors. Always enjoy seeing more stats. :) #gamedev #survivorslike

Nope. Here's one of my doodle sheets. :)

I really like the style of this. I've been VERY SLOWLY working on an RPG that uses hand-drawn ASCII because I'm old and love retro stuff. :D

There's still a few days left in the Steam summer sale. It's still a great time to pick up an oldschool dungeon crawler or two at a discount. :) store.steampowered.com/developer/dr... #steam #rpg #gridder #blobber

I'm getting the hang of adjusting MetaHumans. This is the current working version of Heather Darcy (in Solward). #unreal #metahuman #gamedev

Working a bit on Metahuman face customization. This is what I have for Jenna Petralia (in Solward) so far. #unreal #metahuman #gamedev

Well said. I agree with your points.
