I think a lot of my worries come from the fact that all I've ever wanted is to fall asleep in my best friend's arms and wake up seeing her smile but the world might be fully torched before that ever happens.

Today's progress: Improved reliability of parries and fixed some parry-related bugs #gamedev

"Don't think about anything, V1. You're just trying to pay rent." #gamedev

"V1, they may be people, but... the job comes first. We have to pay rent, and this must be done"

Sorry for the silence, the water's been stagnant and fetid. It's time for things to move. I'll be focusing on my VGen commissions and Atomic Lance

Wyvern of scorched scale, let them taste flame.

Shop Ui Concept art, featuring Ms Vulvul, chief of the Stahlarev shop, selling Stahlarev goodies, a small cameo of a faction created by @smugpire.bsky.social One of the few good smots in the game, she's so smol there's still plenty of space in her shop window #helmheadsthegaem #helmheads

Artists! QRP with the first ever picture of your OC and the most recent one: Hope and Black Projects in general have changed a lot

This is both a work account and a personal account because my full time job is to be myself (and programming. A lot of programming)

You guys are putting in the work to draw your blorbos. I need to step up my game

Addressing recent Atomic Lance allegations.

Also v0.5.2 Screenshots, pew pew

Working with the Steam panel stresses me out way more than working on the game, honestly. Maybe for my own sanity, personal projects won't be sold through Steam.

I said i'd draw sirin for a friend after their thermodynamics exam so here we go

Atomic Lance update v0.5 is finally out

By the thundering of her guns, Something wicked this way comes. 13TH COMMANDMENT is Humanity's final great work. The pinnacle of transhumanism. She was born to befriend the stars, but dollars and steel turned her to war.

Ive received the QA testing results, and once i solve the most pressing issues, update v0.5 will be released and i can finally rest

I feel like the two major archetypes of gamedev I've met are 35+ year old men who have a wife and a child who works on it every now and again, and guys in his 20s who listen to mommy asmr and is alien to the idea of management

FOUR JOBS: PERHAPS TOO MANY JOBS? MORE AT 8

I have some strange character inspirations. From Arknights and Armored Core to Cyberpunk and underrated Soviet planes

For a friend's birthday, I made a joke VN. Here's some clips Featuring: Doomscrolling!

Mommy day magma

People say FromSoft's tutorials are perfect, and I agree. It lets me play the game instead of make me sit through generic dialogue punctuated by obstacles. The quiet vistas and thunderous battles in the trailers are just bait. Oops, all 'press space to vault'!!!! Just let me play the damn game.

Update v0.5 has been done for a while but I am getting people to QA it professionally (sorta), so even I have to wait! I am taking this opportunity to take it easy.

He stared up and asked "O Lord, what is the meaning of life of which You had given us?" And the Lord replied "The pointless accumulation of wealth"

21 days since my last break. 10+ hours a day working. What is this all for, exactly?

Traversing the megastructure

art that makes you go hell yeah

fuck it double-barrel machine gun and four-barrel laser bazooka i don't care #mech #armoredcore #gamedev #indiedev #indiegame #indiebr #madewithunity

If I see a bright green square in the UI of your mecha game, we are friends. #gamedev

New gameplay and UI, featuring the 'Gacha Mechanics' upgrade. game: Atomic Lance #gamedev #indiegame #mecha

Unrelated to my work, personal opinion. I hate this 'we' when it comes to human nature. "We" as a species are drawn to war and exploitation? "We" never change? Who is "we"? I never wanted this, and I don't benefit from it. You're helping evil socialize the guilt. Humans arent evil, they are.

Why are people taking about anthro pics and openai? what's furry art got to do with openai? strange

preview for atomic lance update

made some krul tepes stickers for @smugpire.bsky.social awhile ago and forgot to post

Painting necrons is spending 2 hours to turn your grey model into a painted grey model

Lady Eagle model for @ikeotio.bsky.social mmmmm maybe i should open commissions...

Atomic Lance has very normal sized weapons. I wish I was a game studio instead of a person so I can push my updates on time

Idk, its a topic. Slop has been with us since before AI. Templates, copies, and underpaying people has always been a thing. And it's never the hardest part of gamedev. You can code it badly, draw it badly, and 3d model it badly. It'll still be great if you care. Download Godot and get started NOW

Krul Tepes n.80 A 3D model!!

oh boy

Ritter Free Company - Hog Cranker The RFC's heavy ranged option. Armed with a hand-cranked Gatling gun, they ride atop the only animal stubborn enough to work with such a weapon. In battle, they lack speed but make up for it by volume of fire. "Heavy is the hand that cranks the hog."
