With the new abstractions in three-mesh-bvh, making a custom BVH is easier than ever! SkinnedMeshes can now have one created directly, leading to an over 2x perf improvement on update vs creating a new static mesh. 🚀 What else needs a BVH? 1/2 👇 #threejs #webgl #gamedev

Hey #GameDev and #ATProto! I'm working on tools to decentralize the ownership and management of video games by putting them (or at least their data... for now) on ATProto! I'm looking for feedback, so if you have any interest I'd love to hear your thoughts. ♥️ 🎮 ♥️

How do game developers get themselves discovered these days? Are there community groups to get in touch?

Dear #ScreenshotSaturday, This week my #IndieDev engine cast it's first shadow. I learned about non-orthogonal transforms, Z-buffer precision, and perspective correct interpolation. To celebrate, I'm taking some headache medicine, then curling up in a ball to cry. Sincerely, Frazzled #GameDev

A distant, frozen planet I made for my game 🥶 #screenshotsaturday #gamedev

My first shadow map👶 White outline is a prism of light emitting from a source point. Colored polygons are occluding geometry clipped to the light's volume. Black & White image in top right is depth map within that prism. (White rectangle is an open door. Dark stripe is a foreground pillar.)

They are billions ! (not really but it's a nice game I recommend) 100k VATs moved by Unity ECS with a flow field, on a 500x500m map, at 30+ FPS ! 🤪 But I suspect a culling issue (FPS does not increase when zooming in) #indiegame #indiedev #IndieGameDev #madewithunity #unity #gamedev

Citizen Pain avoids long combo strings and overloaded combat systems. The focus is on movement, positioning, and decision-making, where the challenge comes from understanding space and enemy behavior rather than mastering inputs. #CitizenPain #beatemup #gamedev #indiedev #unrealengine #indiegame

@blender.org 5.0 is a very good release geometry nodes wise. Here a fully GN based french style houses generator. Nodes on my github: github.com/IRCSS/Blende... #gamedev #procedural #blender3d #geometryNodes

Hello, #screenshotsaturday, I'm an #IndieGameDev and this is my humble #IndieGame! I made everything from scratch and I'm trying to get more eyes on it!

She can now swim under bridges, and of course, walk on them. Not very impressive, but it's progress. #screenshotsaturday #gbstudio #indiegame #indiedev

A wise man once told me "Paper mages shouldn't throw fireballs."

Trying to implement "fog of war" on the new level I'm working on. Visuals are 100% not final Sidenote: I love how my recordings sometimes crumble in dark areas😢Took me a few tries to get something decent #ScreenshotSaturday #indiedev #indiegame #citybuilder

I worked on some animations for the robot dog. I'm not a rigger or an animator, so this was challenging. But I'm happy with the result. Some of the animations are meant to be mixed with others, like the bark and the confused look. I'm thinking of doing the same with the tail wag #gamedev #unreal

Merry Christmas everyone. 🌲🎁🎅🦌☃️

another little clip of Mandy just running around, collecting gems and gliding ✨ I’m mostly working on UI stuff right now — making it easier to work with and nicer for future translations. slow progress, but good progress 💙 #GameDev #IndieDev #UnrealEngine #Platformer

Hot damn my game can be metal sometimes! 💀 It's an aRPG Roguelite btw. ⚔️ #indiegames #screenshotsaturday #roguelike #arpg #indiedev

You can pet the doggo in my game. #screenshotsaturday

See some gameplay of the Knight in the Endless Dungeon of Lone Survivors! #screenshotsaturday #gamedev #indiedev

A very WIP #ScreenshotSaturday this week. This projected triangle of light will be my focus for a bit. First I'm culling it based on what geometry it hits, then I'm going to reflect it back into the room. I'm hoping to achieve some radiosity. 💡

Congrats! That's awesome.

Dear #IndieDev or #GameDev -- please take my one question poll. Also, please repost and share. (I don't usually beg for reposts, but I'd really like a significant number of responses.) strawpoll.com/wby5QB2JByA

In order to create the regions with Voronoi, I need to define the central points where the regions will be. Because the map is an actual mesh, I use the mesh vertices to get the (x,y) position and create a 2D map of the regions. 1/8 #godot #indiedev #gamedev

Finally got this working right: flat areas of the world use an optimal 1 vertex per hex tile, while more interesting areas use much more. #gamedev Next up: applying some easing curves to these, to make rounded woods, boxy buildings, nicer cliffs, flatter shorelines and so on.

While working on deferred lighting I rendered normals to the screen for debugging. I thought I'd share the madness with everyone. You're welcome. #IndieDev #GameDev

I've just finished nearly 4 months of work on a new demo patch for my game Axom: Conquest! I'm hoping to get feedback before pushing towards the release version. Full notes here store.steampowered.com/news/app/214... #Indiedev #towerdefense #gamedev #indiegame #strategygames #roguelike

The question came up again, so I'll answer it again. Do I recommend writing a #GameDev engine for #IndieDev? Answer: * If your coding is strong, and you want to invest in your future, then write your own engine. * If you want to complete your game and make a profit, grab an engine off the shelf.

This thread is worth a read if you write code on a regular basis.

#RIAD [WIP] i had a crowbar made around 2 or 3 years ago. Just implemented it too. I reuse the axe animation here, because it fits here too. #GodotEngine #madewithgodot #dungeon #fps #indiegame #indiedev

Been cooking FX again. Here’s the latest spark.‬ ‪#pixelart #gamedev #indiegame #ドット絵‬

If you want your game to come alive, stop researching for a moment and take one small step that moves your project forward today. It doesn’t have to be perfect. Small actions add up. And soon, all those tiny steps combine into something real you can share. #indiedev #gamedev #indiegamedev

What do you mean 👽 BEFORE I GO 👽 main inspiration is the Metroid franchise? I don't know what you're talking about... I hope you're all having a blast with #MetroidPrime4! Enjoy! #metroidvania #indiegame #screenshotsaturday

Dive into the demo of Queen's Domain, a retro-fantasy action RPG where brutal combat and exploration await on the enigmatic Isle of Neasied, as you search for your missing father. Play the demo: playtester.io/queens-domain #IndieGaming #GameDev #Gaming #IndieDev #IndieGame

#Rekindled is a #cozy tavern-running #multiplayer game. Enjoy cooking, farming, fishing, decorating and much much more, all at your own pace and with as many friends as you want. Watch out for more to come! #gamedev #solodev #indiedev

Is solo dev exhausting? Absolutely. But getting to create moments like this? That's pure passion. Wouldn't trade it for the world. My game is complete! ⚔️ #screenshotsaturday #indiegame

#RIAD [WIP] Ax attack basis works. I still have to tune lots of things, like collision detection and area, damage control, sound, fx, etc... #GodotEngine #madewithgodot #dungeon #fps #indiegame #indiedev

Here's some progress on the #ProcGen dungeons I've been working on. Previously these were just big empty rooms. I've added rafters, beams, and pillars for architectural flavor. I've also added props to fill out the space and make it feel lived in. "How it's made" in thread 🧵 #GameDev #IndieDev

My game is for LANDSTALKER FANS 💙🫡 #indiegame #gamedev
