Some days game development is crafting amazing stories and mechanics. Other days, it's painstakingly entering 144 different entries into different objects. #gamedev

Third draft of the prologue and a lot has changed in the past few days, but oh my god is it for the better. Cohesive as fuck!

The UI was a major learning curve for me, but otherwise I’ve found it super intuitive once I knew where everything was - and there’s so many tutorials online

A 3D sculpt of a bearded fellow. It is not finished, and the man appears to be giving a judgemental or stern expression.

Taking so long to block out his hair that he seems to be judging me. Oops. #indiedev #solodev #gamedev #art

First time trying to complete a sculpt in Zbrush - I think it's going well now that I've got the UI mostly figured out LOL

If I post enough vague shitposts about my game, I’ll have some following by the time I’m ready to share screenshots of said game. Right? Riiiiiight?

Am I making this asset in an efficient way? No. Am I making this asset in a professional AAA-standard way? Absolutely not. Am I making this asset in a way that will make me evilly laugh and grin and spin around in my Supervillain chair with my cat on my lap as I do it? 1000% yes. #solodev #gamedev

FINALLY I can post the french Cancan on Bluesky!!

Hmm, UI is stressing me out. I should focus on other parts of the game! *works on UI* *works on UI* *works on UI* *works on UI* *works on UI* *works on UI* *works on UI* *works on UI* *works on UI* *works on UI* *works on UI* *works on UI* *works on UI* *works on UI* #solodev #gamedev

Ooof

Opened up Unreal Engine 5 to mess around a bit. Not even a full day in and I've somehow encountered more issues and crashes than I have in several months of working with Unity. I am so confused

Had an idea in the shower last night, hacked together a few scripts, and although it's crude, I am happy to say that in-game editor access is quite achievable with Godot!

game dev logs: i still can't decide if the input button should lightly flash when you press that key, or if it's too visually distracting

Now more than ever.

Currently not got the funds or proper game layout to be commissioning, but I'll give you a follow and keep you in mind 🫡

Yep - always looking for recommendations to keep an eye on

I need your help! My bunny baking game releases in two weeks and I'm trying to get it before the eyes of anyone who would enjoy it! If you could like or share, it would mean the world to me!

Running code, just something to get in the engine til I can make it fancy

The current prototype draft is an fantasy-RPG based around overthrowing a corrupted god - don't think I've nailed that theme, but the current draft is just about putting some small pieces into place to get an idea of what to work with

Image excluding AI in the quotes :)

Thank you to the person that alerted me about the gen AI in the placeholder! Not a clue how I missed it. Screw that stuff

Anyways, here's an updated shot of my main menu concept. :) #solodev #indiedev #gamedev

Just realised the OG image is probably AI anyways, I really gotta find an artist asap. Thanks for lettin me know!

I put a random filter over it, thats why it may look a bit odd - trying to avoid generative AI where I can. 🫡

UI update as a complete beginner. It's a rough-ish concept, feedback would be appreciated :))). #indiedev #solodev #gamedev

Obligatory: background image isn't mine and is a placeholder, I just snatched it off google. If anyone could tell me the artist, I'd appreciate it

looking on artstation for some assets and every 5th post is AI. what happened there??

happy birthday to the 100% science based dragon mmo!

It took me more than 4 years to capture a scene I could only dream of. A magnificent Condor soars above the peaks of Argentina's Mount Fitz Roy, as they are spot lit in beautiful morning light. 🪶
