After a long break I finally got my rig behaving again. Test target: M1 / the Crab Nebula — ~5h captured in H-alpha over two nights (clouds after midnight on night 2).

I wanted to test Unity’s URP and learn a few new things during last few days. It turned into an experiment where rooms can move when you’re not in them. A little bit like the Cube movie.

Heterochroma by Split82 Two colors. Two worlds. One way out.

I ended up doing a major overhaul, fixing bugs and tweaking most of the things. Now it should work perfectly.
It's a first-person puzzle game inspired by the visuals of Antichamber. The gameplay is built around switching between two dimensions.

I resurrected another one of our game jam games. This time from Global Game Jam 2014. We had just started using Unity back then and didn't know much about best practices. The code was kind of hell, but the game almost worked on the newest Unity version anyway.

I’ve decided to revive some of our old game jam games and make web builds of them.

Here’s the first one from 2016 — OCDungeon. Crazy retro FPS with a twist.

My game The Collector, made for the Ludum Dare #58 Game Jam, ended up in 7th place in the Jam category. Huge thanks to Freeek and Lokiman, who helped a ton in the last few hours. ldjam.com/events/ludum...

🎙️Podcast #370: The Collector

Nedalo mi to a probral jsem to se @split82.bsky.social. Je to sice pouhá gamejamovka, ale krásně na ní lze ilustrovat jeho iterační proces designování. Nasdílel mi i obrázky z průběhu vývoje. Vlevo první, vpravo finále. #modrakfriends modrak.podbean.com/e/370-the-co...

Almost missed this Ludum Dare! Found out on Saturday morning. The theme was perfect, got an idea instantly. Started Sunday, finished Monday night with help from Josh & Vlad. They nailed the testing, balance, and SFX.

I made another game jam game! split82.itch.io/jump-and-dare This time for #BrackeysGameJam 2025.2. Climb a 400 m tower, collect gems, take daring bets, unlock upgrades, and claim the biscuit at the top! #RiskItForTheBiscuit #gamedev #indiedev

I’m working on this idea for #GMTKJam. Two buttons, two loops minimalist rhythm game.

Hey. I’m not completely sure, because of my initial work (which was vanilla 1.0 version of the game), there was some more work done by other people, including publisher. But as far as I know, there is no hidden star on Android version.

Working a bit on the UI for my small puzzle game. Wanted to try something more interesting this time, so I ended up with these flipping tiles. What do you think?

Not sure yet. Really depends on what I decide to do with it. But hopefully soon.

Yes exactly!

I hope I will never have to make a game with ads :)

Made this small math puzzle game last week during Puzzle Game Jam. Unfortunately I didn’t manage to hit the deadline, but I will finish it anyway. Missing just some win animation, levels and menu :) #madewithunity #indiegame

Congrats. Looks beautiful . Will give it a try.

Beat Saber nears 10 million players on Meta Quest Beat Saber is approaching its next major milestone: nearly ten million people have played the VR game on Meta Quest alone.

Almost 10 million Beat Saber players on Quest only. Nice! mixed-news.com/en/beat-sabe...

It helped :)

Today is the 7th anniversary of Beat Saber! I found this cool screenshot of the commit history. It really shows that the real work began once the game was out :D

This flying quad is bothering me so much in Blue Prince. Right at the entrance :D

Oh nice I didn't even know about that feature. Will check it. Thanks!

When updating to Unity 6000.0.47f1 my fixed timestep got set to 0.0001. Most of the projects will loose tons of FPS so it's pretty easy to figure this out, but on small projects I see only tiny bit different physics behavior :) @unity.com

It uses some weird system to render UI and texts, so sometimes it's almost unreadable. Not because of the size of the text, but it really looks weird. I'm not sure what's the issue, but I hope it will be fixed soon.
