Please let me know which of these earths you think is more interesting, what would you prefer to see in a steam capsule? #indiedev #solodev #gamedev #earth #satellites #management #simulator #scifi #liminal #space #poll #decisions

My first passion is the environment and humanitarianism, took a little break from making a game to start a new little dashboard project for global conflict and major natural disasters Was able to use a lot of the game assets, and it will help in the game #gamedev #indiedev #nature #sim #management

2d propellers/drone blades Is this too minimal? Not minimal enough? Would love thoughts, working with vectors to make assets #prop #3d #2d #animation #perspective #indiedev #solodev #gamedev #flight #blades #model #gaming

Its close, wanted to add “propellers” to my ball drones, mostly just to start working on a more complex system for objects Will adjust further, might be worthwhile to find a way to import obj files into voxel world so i can use a proper modeller #indiedev #space #gamedev #sim #management #liminal

Actually inspiring but really funny #gamedev #indiedev #inspo #sim #management #PCgaming #LocalCoop

Working on the flashlight today, right now it follows the player, and other players can see the light move around Will tweak more, light is an important aspect, thinking you can upgrade the flashlight, and adjusting it for different materials/environments #indiedev #gamedev #voxel #management #sim

Our little voxel engine now supports sphere avatars. I want to try give them little hinge arms? Something that would look funny when they explode, maybe propellor hats? #indiedev #spacedev #CustomEngine #godot #unreal #unity #gamedev #management #sim #roguelike #coop #science #space #satellites

Local coop possible, have your little kid sibling mine asteroids while you manage supply chain and logistics Think of each rocket as its own life/crew But anyways, got the voxel world working in all screens, and changes propagates! #indiedev #gamedev #solodev #space #multiplayer #sim #stars #game

Reworked the satellite landing mode, will still have liminal type buildings. But this is a Liminal Space comet being explored with the rocket. Dont mind the lack of color, internal test build, follow for more! Big steps #shaders #indiedev #simulator #fractals #liminalSpace #scifi #management #game

Adjusted the movement to be more like using a jetpack in space, wasd is up left down right, left and right mouse forward, left is look around Also added something that follows you, but going to remove it all together to work on multistory #indiedev #sim #gamedev #liminalSpace #cosmic #stars #fly

Tip to anyone working with random numbers, randomly picking between 10 choices, is much faster than randomly picking any number from 1-10 Doubled our framerate by swapping random.uniform in python with random.choice, among a few other optimizations #indiedev #gamedev #space #management #simulation

So here is the view of the rocket as it orbits earth, and the view of the earth from the rocket, and a view of the earth from you looking through window on said rocket. Also lighting effects that may or may not be final #indiedev #gamedev #space #sim #walking #cosmic #mystery #retro #lowPoly #game

for rocket interiors, the skybox is the games starmap When the flashlight is off, the blackness of space makes its way in, space clouds and other objects fill the ship, black surfaces let you see stars Flashlight on, empty ship, flashlight off, filled with space #indiedev #solodev #cosmic #horror

We got space ghosts and creepy liminal spaces with chill lighting. This wouldnt be a normal rocket interior, ill work on making that customizable and not dark. But this would be a good start to level design when you board derelict vessels, or abandoned outposts on mars.. #indiedev #gamedev #game

Interiors already look much creepier, you can only see three squares around you by default Use a flashlight to see more, but when you use the flashlight you cant see the placeholder “spirits” on the map, some who arent friendly #indiedev #simulation #gamedev #management #space #economy #fps #scifi

Made a little tilemap system for ship interiors, will make each rocket window its own FPV game Time to add encounters, im thinking some spooky story elements would fit well with this Imagine finding a crew with cosmic dementia #indiedev #simulation #gamedev #management #space #economy #fps #scifi

Attempting to create a ship interior mode, currently i have a 6 sided room you can look around in. Disables rocket controls, will work on more elaborate interiors, but trying to keep it simple #indiedev #gamedev #solodev #management #simulator #space #scifi #gaming #prototyping #gamedesign

Intercept incoming asteroids before they strike earth, also added the sun to the view in the rockets to make it more complete The part of earth that will be hit glows, small area and increasing as the asteroid gets closer #indiegame #retro #solodev #indiedev #space #rockets #simulation #flight #hi

Space rave with the boids to save earth #gamedev #solodev #nature #space #satellites #comet #asteroids #arcade #retro #lowpoly #pcGaming #simulation #management #sim #indiedev #trailer #scifi

Will reduce number if particles but last main system to work on is a reward system for destroying incoming rockets before they hit earth You can already destroy them, but i need it to stun structures if it hits #indiedev #gamedev #artGame #simulation #space #stars

Snagged a pic of Ursa Major/Big Dipper, inspiration #space #games #indiedev #solodev #photography #nature #earth #stars #bear

How would you classify this on a steam page? Build and Fly Rockets in a Game of Life Sim? Grow and Trade Rare Void Boids for Upgrades to your Ships #indiedev #gamedev #space #management #simulator #nasa #earth #astronomy #astrology #nebula #stars #gaming #idle #cozy

Much better bullet system, you can now draw in space then fly through the bullets #gamedev #solodev #rocket #satellite #simulation #management #indiedev #artGame

groups follow the lead rocket in the control window When the lead rocket fires its gun, all other rockets fire at the same point When the lead rocket is beaming to a planet, the others do too Rocket groups can accomplish tasks faster than 1 lone rocket #indiedev #gamedev #fun #sim #management

Here we can see an expedition led by the red rocket with the blue and magenta rocket following in group formation They are chasing down boid whales, awaiting the birth of their spawn, which will fetch a high price on the galactic market #boids #indiedev #gamedev #nature #space #management #sim #hi

YUGE UPDATE - Rocket groups. Shift clicking rockets will add them to the same control group, the currently controlled rocket will be followed by other members of its group Rockets in the same group share resources, but they do not share upgrades #simulator #indiedev #gamedev #nasa #management #hi

Serious question, any good resources on making a game trailer? thinking of getting a steam page going Also here is some of the game loop, build structures->adjust color and shape production-> tame boid snakes -> upgrade rockets -> fly space -> pew pew baddies #indiedev #gamedev #sim #hi #satellite

Ok seriously look at those trails (when in reverse you can see the rocket trails of the satellite you control) Updated the rocket trails now to properly match the main view, and wow i love this shit so much #indiedev #solodev #gamedev #space #simulation #management #math #gameofLife

Added an offset slider in menu for the globe so that the overall look is more customizable I like it more with the ui on left, i was debating adding an option to have it recenter when the UI is hidden, will likely add #indiedev #solodev #gamedev #space #management #simulator #nasa #satellites

Still working on visibility/ui stuff, but happy with this rocket manager, also i added rocket trails to the view of the individual rockets. #space #indiedev #gamedev #science #solodev #management #simulator

A rocket dashboard in the management menu. Click to change the ship in focus, and scroll through all of them Will be building on this more to add a skill tree for each rocket, use resources to unlock features like warp, weapons, larger storage etc (no micro-transactions) #indiedev #space #gamedev

Space worm breeder simulator 2025 #indiedev #gamedev #boids #rockets #scifi #management

created 2 structures for the sim to change prey spawn rates, factory 1 boosts a given prey, factory 2 reduces predator shift to what they eat, and their children are based on those colors made them eat and spawn in a small area as i adjusted the settings and set them free #indiedev #gamedev #space

This makes me so giddy, i cannot explain how much i love this project I added guns to the rockets, all independently controllable think the name is a work in progress, im thinking renaming is “Worm Wranglers” #indiedev #sim #solodev #gamedev #space #satellites #simulation #gaming #management

Is this what you freaks want? Responsive UI with satisfying clicking noises when you hover over buttons! Fine! You sick animals, here, take it! #indiedev #gamedev #spacedev #simulator #scifi #earth #nature #boids #gameOfLife #hashtag #gaming #developing

ITS SO PRETTY watch the last 5 seconds for some beautiful rocket rings The beam is essentially a star trek beam, energy, resources, disaster relief, weapon etc #indiedev #simulator #space #gamedev #management #sim #yo

Fixed a bug in the rocket, the planets are rendered with equal size pixels size now happy with the default UI, keeping it offset to the left but every window is draggable and resizable The rocket beam can also be set to continuous fire #indiedev #space #gamedev #management #simulator #sim #nasa

Thank you all new followers and old! Here are lasers shooting from rockets #indiedev #gamedev #solodev #spaceSim #satellites #science #gaming #lowPoly #lowRes #science

Have no clue how this platform works tbh, my post about a main menu gets 100 likes and engagement but rockets and spaceships flying through rings is crickets lol #indiedev #gamedev #space #rockets #science #boids #lowpoly #lowres #satellites #nasa #solodev

Making improvements to my indiegame UI and cutting out some bloat as i hone down on mechanics. Added a set of controls for the satellite that allow moving around orbiting bodies more easily, you can still freely control them through space Going to work on different satellites giving different info

In space time matters, time wasted means time not picking up new deliveries, that means less money. So you want the boost drive, expensive yes but one boost drive pays for itself in 5 deliveries & it only needs to save your life once. #indiedev #gamedev #scifi #rocket #flight #travel #sim #upgrade

Hey friends, how's it going? Decided to open up a Patreon page. I'm extremely new to it so I need some feedback on what the heck I'm doing. If you have any ideas for benefits that members can get. I'm all ears. #roguelike | #gamedev | #indiegame | #solodev | #metroidvania

Making things go through things vs just layering them as a whole is way harder - my python engine grows I now have the bases for race loops in space, or portals that spawn creatures, or wormholes etc, #python #pygame #indiedev #solodev #games #space #cosmos #boids #nature #nurture #sim #science

Does anyone know how to deal with strange gravitational anomalies bending light in their game engines? This thing just appeared out of nowhere I knew I should have just used #godot, god damnit #indieDev #spaceDev #soloDev #gameDev #science #earth #mamagement #simulator #SpaceSim #mamagementSim

Last time people loved the main menu, here is the UI. Resizable 😩 Draggable 👀 Snap to Grid 🙈 Groupable 🫠 Text resizing 💦 What would you want to see in a perfect UI? #indiedev #gamedev #solodev #UX #spaceSim #lowPoly #indie #indieGamefest #management #astronomy #cosmology #relaxing #games

Z buffer fully worked out 🙈, Rockets render in the right order now The earth in the rocket window is also synced to the main one now, so its above the right place at the right time #indiedev #gamedev #solodev #space #simulator #management #screenshot #demo #lighting #gaming #gameOfLife #travel

6 rockets in orbit, also added a camera within the rocket view to zoom on far away objects, makes aiming easier. #indiedev #gamedev #solodev #space #flight #simulation #management #pcGames #PCgaming #lowPoly #science #earth #sustainability #satellites

Quite literally losing sleep over the main menu and all the tiny subsystems that it depends on. I just want to get back to making cool shit. #gamedev | #indiegame | #solodev

Multiple rockets now engaged, added a little particle effect to them as well that looks like a jet plume so you can see how they are travelling from the main view #indiedev #gamedev #solodev #spaceManagement #simulator #particles #gameOfLife #shaders #cosmic #starfield #PCGaming
