An older drawing perhaps stored in my memory to inspire a study, alongside the news that the lamp had been knocked over. The corner of Minster Gates, York & Minerva guards the books.

A thumbnail showing a portal with a rainbow vortex, seen inside of Unreal Engine 5. There is an arrow pointing to it and inside of it a screenshot from UE5 shows a blueprint version of the portal, seen from the side. Text reads "Part 6.4 - Recolor Vortex UI Widgets".

"The best pavement I've made so far" really isn't the sort of personal achievement I thought I'd be puffing my chest out over, but game development has a way of changing a man.

At the previous Dutch Game Association networking lunch we presented a prototype for our audiogame "Liora's Blind Nature".

Waking up with no clue, learn how to navigate, follow trails, use a magical bow and do quests in a rich story-driven forest.

a 70s inspired pick up truck that's missing half its wheels and headlights for texturing purposes. Upper half is a kind of purple/indigo and lower half is an off white color. The bench seat is light brown leather.

Kinda felt like resharing Makena's car cause I think most of you haven't seen it but also I should actually finish the dashboard at some point.
(absolutely didn't get inspired to reupload because of the wonderful car models @neutronio.games is makingπŸ‘€)

Also are you annoyed by these micro updates yet?
Well gamedev is pain so I hope you're really feeling how slow this grind is.

Anyone into farming sims, creature tamer and deckbuilding want to play the Sprytewood alpha?

It currently has content for 15-30 min and I'd really like to know what you think of it!
