Working on more world building, this time a direct opposite of the cyberpunk city, playing more on solar punk vibes of "flourishing" and "alive". This emphasis of contrast is just one narrative theme in "Parallax Veil". #indiedev #indiegame #gamedev #gamedesign #worlddesign #game #newgame #rpg

When you start throwing primitives together to start creating weapons and it turns into the millennial puzzle. xD im such a nerd #indiedev #indiegame #gamedev #gamedesign #3D #3Dart #probuilder #unity #design #roguelike #soulslike #rpg #adventure #cyberpunk #parallaxveil

[NO AUDIO] Been working on this worldspace for the past week and things are really coming together. I can't wait to populate the space further with NPCs to really drive the immersion of a bustling sprawl. #indiedev #indiegame #gamedev #gamedesign #worlddesign #game #newgame #cyberpunk #rpg

My internet died yesterday so I just kinda went a bit nuts on working on my hub world for the last 48 hours. More world building progress! #indiedev #indiegame #gamedev #gamedesign #worlddesign #rpg #cyberpunk #soulslike #battleroyale #anime #game #games #newgames

more world building stuff :) #indiedev #indiegame #gamedev #gamedesign #soulslike #rpg #cyberpunk

Started working on some world design today. Mostly dialed in the ambient vibes on a small sample street I slapped together for now. This will build out into an explorable Hub world in between dives into the main game play space. #indiegame #indiedev #gamedev #gamedesign #soulslike #rpg #cyberpunk

brief update on corruption spreading mechanic for PV #gamedev #indiegame #soulslike #battleroyale #nightreign #newgame #mechanics

Very rough start of building corruption zone that will creep from each infected node. I am working on the logic right now so that when it touches a non-infected node, it will trigger a domino effect across the game world. We can tie this into all kinds of world events. #indiegame #gamedev

For PV - I wanna try something different. Instead of a collapsing bubble / circle, I want the mechanic to be that "sites of grace" become corrupted. The bubble / circle starts to expand from them and causes a domino effect to the others. #gamedev #indiegame #soulslike #nightreign #battleroyale

Nightreign uses this same mechanic, but it only makes sense to draw every player towards the boss. Nightreign is PvE with "battle royale" elements that don't truly make sense to me other than the flow of gameplay. (Which I will say I do thoroughly enjoy.) #gamedev #indiegame #soulslike #nightreign

This puts gameplay in the hands of the players in a PvE setting, and becomes a much more "mission" oriented game with a two-sided "battle royale" type situation: Clear the corruption - or point of no return, defaulting to "Final Showdown". #gamedev #indiegame #soulslike #nightreign #battleroyale

By unlocking a "site of grace", it can shutdown the corruption from the inside, and shockwave "clear" the corruption to nearby sites. #gamedev #indiegame #soulslike #nightreign #battleroyale #gamemechanics

Some ideas for Parallax Veil inspired by Elden Ring: Nightreign Every "battle royale' game does this simplified collapsing circle thing. You have no control of where it's going to go, and you sort of are at the mercy of the game, drawing players together for a final showdown #gamedev #indiegame

Announcing my new track "Barriers" is out now on all streaming platforms! open.spotify.com/track/0ReQDQ... #dnb #drumandbass #newmusic #music #edm

Progress has been a little slow recently, but we're still working on things in the background. Recent goal is to get away from using the test model, and build some to fit the game and character generator. More to come soon! . . . . #gamedev #indie #unity #soulslike #unitydev #indiegames #gaming

New DNB just dropped :) Check out my new track "Adrenaline", the first of my Drum & Bass series "Nothing Is Sacred". open.spotify.com/track/3Zsa51...

Got pulled in to close out #MAGFEST ARENA STAGE this year! SATURDAY NIGHT // SUNDAY MORNING @ 3AM Super EXCITED! #DJ #MUSIC #DNB #DRUMANDBASS #EDM #MUSICFESTIVAL

"Nothing Is Sacred" is the next installment of the KNARD legacy, with some heavy hitting Drum & Bass. This year, I'll be releasing one track each month.

TONIGHT

I'm currently moving, and during this downtime I am also wrapping up some things for other projects. We'll get back to dev work in the near future, following MAGFest at the latest. Hope everyone's had a good start of the new year. 🙂 #gamedev #indie #unity #soulslike #unitydev #indiegames #gaming

Got a bunch of Legos as a gift today, I plan to use them to prototype and build some world space. :) Happy Holidays! . . . . . #indie #gamedev #soulslike #unity #unity3d

I'm taking a break from dev work this week, but got inspired for some new mechanics last night. Definitely will analog tinker with them on paper before getting back into the code. Hope everyone has an awesome holiday! . . . . . #gamedev #indie #soulslike #gaming #unity #unity3d

Inventory Management System Framework is going smoothly. We're well on our way to making some UI Menus soon so we can manage everything in-game, then it's CONTENT, CONTENT, CONTENT! . . . . . #gamedev #indie #unity #gaming #soulslike

Much cleaner simple procedural wall destruction. We'll make plenty use of this. . . . . . #gamedev #indie #soulslike #unity #gaming

Still a LOT of work to do to polish this type of stuff, but there is framework done for destructive wall interactions. I think stuff like this can be a lot of fun to explore the game world for secret pathways and chambers. . . . . . #gamedev #indie #soulslike #gaming #unity

AI Update - Enemies will pursue much more aggressively by dynamically sprinting, running, etc towards their target to break the distance quicker. This will also allow me to delve deeper into advanced AI to make them fight more dynamically. . . . . . #gamedev #indie #unity #soulslike #gaming

Adding some framework for the parkour system. Definitely needs some polish, but this will allow me to add in a better ledge grab mechanic. . . . . . #gamedev #indie #unity #soulslike #gaming

Small UI Update - refined the look of the resource bars and made them scale with player's stats seamlessly. . . . . . #gamedev #indie #soulslike #UI #pixelart #gaming

@iheartgamedev.bsky.social Can you put up a github of your state machine logic? I've followed your course all day today but nothing is actually working, and I've spent the last 6 hours trying to figure out why.

xlife.caldenza.gg 11th Extra Life is going strong at the graveyard shift! Nearly at the 6 hour mark with 1016 USD raised on our 1500 USD goal! Hopeful to break through well past our goal with such a strong start. Good early morning and hope to see you throughout!!

Put video game music in symphony halls. DONT tell them it’s from a video game. Watch how they lose their minds.

Welcome new friends. Bluesky apparently has Starter Packs (aka lists of people you can follow). So I made for the #chiptune and #vgm scene. Check it out here: go.bsky.app/JSDN7w2

Im gonna say it again: music is VITAL to games. Music guides players. Music enhances emotional moments. Music is so so so important. Funny enough video games are modern operas in the way music is needed to buoy the emotional stakes.

is it me or does most social media hit critical mass within a month because of bot traffic?

Good morning

idk why but you're stinky
