I can't believe I'm actually finally saying this but... we have a Discord server now! If you're interested, here's the invite: discord.gg/YVdeju6zEw and if you have any friends who might be interested, please spread the word - let's get this community started! #gamedev #indiedev

I mostly use a helper-struct that's a horizon-rotation + local-euler-angle pair so I don't have to think about it too much and can still mostly script with pitch + yaw. (Have to use a quaternion, and not just a horizon-normal due to holonomy.) #ugh #math

Update with several other layered effects, so we've now got jogging, aiming, dashing, freefall, arms, headlook, dynamics, etc. It's not "one big idea" but several details, so I'll try and break them down in a thread piece-by-piece.

The floating cursor was my first gameplay prototype, haha.

Welcome to Yoink school today I am going to ramble about my method to draw Gutsman.EXE and you are going to listen (1/6). These are my notes about his posture and why it's important to draw him this way.

One of the funnest parts of my prototype of a 3D Defender was adapting the enemy designs, like this adaptation of the Lander from the original game. This was modelled by me but designed by the best concept artist I know, Roberta :3 ( www.instagram.com/rodrigues_il... ) #indiedev #gamedev

hold on, sweetie. mom needs to take another solo

Uhh ... can i cherry pick form each one lol

Q1: Since we're talking about plot, we figured it would be fun to see how you plot! Based on this nifty chart, what is your plotting/writing style alignment? #WeeknightWriters

Found this super helpful page made by indie developers. I highly suggest everyone bookmark this to their record and even add to it if you're more experienced and knowledgeable. #indiedev #indiedevs into-games.notion.site/7ad9ee991f97...

Anyway here's Mihoyo promoting AI assisted game production including: "Efficiency in Image and Material Generation With very few materials, they can generate character model sheets + 3D models, allowing for the testing of multiple designs and their artistic outcomes." Something to keep an eye on.

Yeah, I realized the generic head in the old design was a missed-opportunity to echo the visual design of the pilots, and make that connection more intuitive. I'm thinking about this more for all three playable heroes.

Here are our thoughts on a handful of flight focused games with demos at Steam Next Fest October 2025. #flightsim #indie

Breaking: Today is officially one of the biggest days of protest in American history. Over 7 million Americans turned out to No Kings events to stand up against MAGA fascism.

Experimenting with a second UV-set (primary is for bake) where I pick colors + simple shapes. It's a bit like solving a puzzle because it's so closely tied to the topology.

Some alternate dimension full of floating islands and giant flowers? No problem for a broke alien girl 👽💚 #lowpoly #gamedev #indiedev

So I made a promise to a couple of people in the Discord server for @yoyoyollie.bsky.social's #DeliveryMustComplete. The promise was that this weekend, I'd put a hat on a plane (long story) so here you go. Plane in a hat. #gamedev #indiedev #screenshotsaturday #NovaSquadron

Dogfighting around massive bloody pillars, dont ask why (it was a cool idea ok) (wishlist the game in pinned) #gamedev #indiedev #screenshotsaturday #DeliveryMustComplete

Started playing a big of Hellblade II the other day, and that first level really inspired me to see if I could get a similar vibe in Unity with a handful of megascans and a bit of HAZE 🌫 Really dig the results, especially for ~1.5 hours of messing around 👀 #gamedev #unity3d #madewithunity

Tomas.. did you just add dynamic point lights to the Falconeer Remaster? nooo.. just a vector4array buffered to the GPU for positions and ranges. It's nice even affects the clouds. Those are pointlights, how many did you use???? not enough.... not enough #screenshotsaturday #indiedev

I know I can't beat the peak aesthetics of Mega Man Legends, but I'm doing the best I can! (game is ABYSS X ZERO for those unaware! Coming out... eventually) #gamedev #lowpoly

Twinkle's got moves! There's tons of platforming options, like groundpound-bounce jump, walljumps, air dashes, and like a bajillion more 👽💨 #lowpoly #gamedev #indiedev
