Is #Discord still the app to use for game devs? If not, what's the new app? I've been meaning to join groups for indie game devs since forever but social anxiety and still being early in development has kept me from doing that so far 👉👈 #GameDev #IndieGameDev

The zombie got a bit of an update! It has hair and cloth variations now; wish me luck for the weight painting! I think I never had to do it for a character with layers before 😬 #Blender #IndieGameDev

Auto-Rig Pro is a real lifesaver. But weight-painting is still the bane of my existence! #Blender #IndieGameDev

UPDATE: I think I'm slowly getting the hang of sculpting in #Blender? It helps that the skeleton will be very small on screen, so there is no point in getting hung up on details or excessive polish.

A thought: With the AI craze making it too expensive for normal people to upgrade their PCs or buy a new one, do you think there will be a split in the gaming market? Where AAA studios will exclusively make games for rich people while indies make games for everybody else? #GameDev #IndieGameDev

Turning my lowpoly skeleton into a highpoly one. The Zombie is the last character I'll make in ZBrush bc the program is just too damn expensive, and I hate subscription models. So, I'm trying to get used to sculpting in #Blender instead. #GameDev

The #GameDev scene in Germany is so bad right now even the job boards are closing down 😰 gamesjobsgermany.de

I'm currently working on the first enemy, the zombie!🧟 It will have different hair and cloth variations, so the mob doesn't look so same-y. #GameDev #IndieGame

WIP I need a break from programming. The Health Flower is done in #Blender (mostly) so time to get it into the engine. I thought about adding some star sparkles to it and making it emit a wind chime like sound to really give it that magic vibe. #GameDev

I haven't been posting here about my current bigger project "Ghoul Graveyard" tho it's been in the works for a while. It was originally being developed in Unity before I switched to UE5. I posted about this on my X and this is the thread is putting BlueSky up-do-date with my project. #IndieGameDev

Soo... Triumph Studios made the two "Overlord" Games. Codemasters owns the IP, then got bought by EA which yesterday got bought by Saudi Arabia... ... I think I can go and bury my dreams of ever getting to work on Overlord 3 😭
