Congrats! 🎉🎉

The moment when you have a call with buddies and you play around with post processing for fun...
Trippy nights I say ^^'
I had more fun doing this then I probably should have xD
#indiegamedev

2.5 Weeks ago I started a new project for my portfolio and to just experiment with ideas. It's about a little nightmare Coffee Shop where you serve drinks and keep disturbing anomalies out of your cozy nightmare shop! :3
The ambition is to release a demo on steam in just a month! xD
#indiegamedev

I forgot to post this here haha. I have finished the writing part of my MA Thesis and part of it was to do a teaser video from the current version of the game ^^
I will take a little break from this project tho as I really crunched on it the past months ^^'
#cozystyle #indiegamedev #gamedevelopment

I finally found the time to work on my project again. What better way to get headaches by reworking the whole grasssystem just to smooth out and regrow it after placing and remove paths xD
🌿
Has it any relevant functionality tho? Absolutly not!
Does it look fluffy? Yes! Yes it does >:3
#indiegamedev

Very Nice 👍

🎉 Congrats!! 🥳🎉

We can't believe it! 😱
Our game has been nominated for @derdcp.bsky.social in the category "Best Prototype" 🥹❤️ Huge thanks for the nomination 🫶 Also congrats to all the other nominees 🎉
@gameverband.bsky.social @bmwk.de @medienboard.bsky.social @devcom.bsky.social @games-stiftung.bsky.social #derDCP

I really wonder how long it will take for someone to release a modern A* pathfinder as mod for it xD
Probably not long 🤔

YouTube video by SethMadDev New Workstation Processing and Attractions!! #indiegamedev #cozygames #gamedevelopment

I tried out the last Video with a bit more music this time :3
Not the most fitting but I like the core direction of it 🎶

youtube.com/shorts/fRYwB...

So I have been working on many improvements, new systems and several other things I can't list here (post length haha) ^^'
🌿🌿
Besides some new visuals, I now implemented the player interaction with workstations to create some products yourself hehe 🎠

#indiegamedev #cozygames #gamedevelopment

Did anybody here hook up @steampowered.com localization for shop, achievements etc and @crowdin.bsky.social?
Valve seems to use it as well. I'm wondering if there is already a solution to hook them up. My ingame stuff is already there so all in one place would be good. Some guide would help.

I did implement a very basic Soundsystem today and did some visual fixes as well as a bit more feedback for the agents when they are chopping trees as well. 🌿🌿
It slowly begins to feel like a game and not just a test environment haha

#indiegamedev #cozygames #gamedevelopment

YouTube video by SethMadDev 🌲Little Shed Development Update 🌳 (No Sound) ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

A little progress update to my current master thesis project >.>
I feel like i have gone back at least 10 steps again. At least I found some time to finally fix the tree visuals (except that rotation bug haha) 🌲🌲🌳🌳

#cozystyle #indiedev #gamedevelopment

A* algorithm for my pathsystem. 🫠
It was way harder to implement then I thought. Especially since most resources I found are grid based rather then graph based. Found some good ones tho and adapted on it.

Now the AI fun begins but first I connect this with the attractions :3

#indiedev #indiegame

I finally managed to define an operation area for attractions. >_>

The goal is to have an expandable area to combine attractions of the same type to play around with more tight spaces when needed. 🎠🎠🎠

#IndieGameDev #indiegame

So I was working on quit some things over the last weeks. From the first steps of the building mode to the first character model tests and additional light and shader enhances. ✨✨

Oh and a new iteration over the UI as well ^^'

Still much work to do haha 🎠🎢

#gamedevelopment #cozystyle #indiedev

We worked on a small Winter Update :3
If you haven't checked out, go for it!

We also have a 50% Sale going on right now ^^'

So after lot's of trial and error I finally managed to make a okayish looking terrain for my project.
Even chunk loading does work quit well. >_>

It's mostly static and doesn't need to be updated runtime for this project yet which comes handy ^^

#MarchingCubes #indiedev

I was testing out the first game loop iterations for managing NPCs for my game. Later I intent them to overtake many annoying tasks as you proceed in the game.
That way, the players can focus on what is the most fun to them such as building a park.

#indiedev #gamedevelopment #simulation #cozygames

I have worked on my lighting shader. It now works with forward+ rendering inside
#unity
It even has some nice looking artifacts around the circles that l like

#cozy #gamedev

Congrats ^^
