Wrote a new blog post, this time more of a devlog. I'm planning to move away from YouTube devlogs to writing to my blog. I prefer it that way www.minaridev.com/l/latest-dev... #gamedev #indiedev #blog

Decided to start working on smaller scope game, 2-3 levels, one weapon, one enemy. Something to play in 10-15 minutes. And something I can finish during the weekend, we'll see about that though... Trying to keep scope small is hard! #gamedev #indiegame #RPGInABox

Wrote a short blog post describing my thoughts regarding Bethesda developer leaving the studio and how that changes the outcome of Elder Scrolls 6. www.minaridev.com/l/when-you-f... #Gamedev #blog #Bethesda

It's time for final major update for Crypta: Depths Of Darkness! minaridev.itch.io/crypta-depth... #Gamedev #indiedev #RPGInABox

Didn't have lot of energy today but I started the work on decorating the town. After that is done, I can start populating it with villagers and start designing few quests and so on. That's going to be fun. #Gamedev #indiedev #RPGInABox

Village layout done, just need to decorate all the houses and such stuff. Been productive night (6 am here haha) #gamedev #indiedev #RPGInABox

Been working on first village for my RPG. Evolution on house design. I'm horrible at modeling houses so I think making it without roof would be easier, plus no additional maps needed for every single house! #gamedev #indiedev #RPGInABox

Its a new year and I wanted to introduce myself to everyone again!🤗✨️ Hi, i'm Chris and I love art and video games! I do pixel art, voxel and occasionally 3D. Right now i have one main project and a couple of prototypes☺️ You can support my work on Kofi! 🤗❤️ #gamedev

After Crypta has entered 1.0 version, this project will begin taking steam. I'm thinking Zelda-like blocky RPG. I want to focus on polishing this project as much as I'm able. I know I have started and stopped multiple projects but that's skill issue I'm trying to fix #Gamedev #indiedev #RPGInABox

the villager's city set has really good plain gloves/boots to use with any black mog

Free/non-grid movement for NPCs and enemies is coming as part of the upgrade to Godot 3.6! No longer will they be tied to the grid lines! The Godot 3.6 upgrade will also bring countless other improvements and optimizations to RPG in a Box. #rpginabox #godot #godotengine #gamedev #indiedev

Hey, it's me again! Here's a little discussion about Crypta and my plans for 2026. minaridev.itch.io/crypta-depth... #Gamedev #Indiedev

Wrote a new blog post on my website regarding next year and how I feel about my released games. www.minaridev.com/l/end-of-yea... #gamedev #indiedev

My PC unfortunately seems to be dying so I'll be working on this setup for now. Firefox crashed constantly and even Discord froze from time to time. #gamedev is on pause until I get time to transfer my files to this laptop.

Continued the work for the cellar project. Made the second map smaller and added little details like cobweb in the corner and water pipes to the wall #gamedev #indiedev #RPGInABox

New update is available for Crypta: minaridev.itch.io/crypta-depth... #gamedev #indiedev #RPGInABox

Set up the beginning scene. Time to go to bed, it's almost 2 am here #gamedev #indiedev #RPGInABox

I want to revive my Diablo-inspired project called Kingdom of Decay/Sinners. Here's some animation testing for the player character #gamedev #indiedev #RPGInABox

Streaming some RPG In A Box development at: www.twitch.tv/minaridev #Twitch #gamedev #Indiedev #RPGInABox

Internet in the house is busted, so all live service games are unplayable FORTUNATELY, I got Silent Hill f and a bunch of physical games to tide me over until the technician arrives tomorrow So, remember, kids! Physical copies of games is STILL BETTER!

Started working on the new level for Crypta. Sewer theme, made a rat enemy too for it. I think this will be last level before the boss level. Because you need to have those too #gamedev #indiedev #RPGInABox

Released the game jam project. quite rushed out due to holidays keeping me busy so I needed to release this before I go. 3 levels, last one being quite dull tbh. Plus bit hardcore due to health not regenerating between levels lol #gamedev #indiedev #RPGInABox minaridev.itch.io/hunt-of-the-...

Made this dialogue/intro for my therapy project. It now has an official name. Fade out was added while editing, not part of the game, but could be added. Also need to change the default RPG In A Box UI colors/look. Plus the logo appearing needs to be adjusted. #gamedev #indiedev #RPGInABox

Yes, the game jam is not over, but I wanted to revive an old concept project. I took inspiration from Ultima-series as it's obvious haha. These simple graphics seem to be my strength, though player model took some time to get right #gamedev #indiedev #RPGInABox #Ultima #CRPG

Sloppy buggy recording of what I have so far #gamedev #indiedev #RPGInABox

Okay, the jam theme took a bit to be announced but it's about care. I decided to go with a platformer, never done one in RPG In A Box and I think being careful in a platformer could be fine enough idea that fits the jam. Using halloween themed characters to save time #gamedev #indiedev #RPGInABox

Work-in-progress scene from a retro indie point-and-click adventure game... #SoloDev #PixelArt #IndieGameDev #PointAndClick

working on a small game for a personal game jam of one month this is the beginnings of HOLY WRIT, an arena combat game this week ive implemented the attack charging, blocking, dashing, and a very scalable viewmodel and movement system almost ready for some enemies #indiedev #gamedev #godot

2 days for Jam to start so in the meanwhile I'm progressing with my cellar side project. Changed the camera, added first enemy and some audio, still lots of work with this but it's coming together nicely. #gamedev #indiedev #RPGInABox

Decided to join a game jam which starts in 5 days, Cloudy Jam 2025. Been a while from a last one I joined #gamedev #indiedev itch.io/jam/cloudy-j...

Here's only footage of the RPG Maker project I did in 2023. Pretty much trash, but you gotta start somewhere. I hit some kind of bug with the project and cancelled it. I think I own every RPG Maker, should make use of them haha. Maybe I will? Could be fun #RPGMaker #gamedev #indiedev

Developing "Abyss Ring", a dungeon game where players aim to reach the deepest 100 floors with cooking monsters. Various Equipment will appear like Wizard Clothes, Heavy Armor, Pole-arm, Two-handed Sword, Sword, Mace, Staff, Spear etc! #IndieGameDev

speed assembly #unrealengine #gamedev #indiedev #leveldesign

Released a new update to Crypta and also added new logo #gamedev #indiedev #RPGInABox minaridev.itch.io/crypta-depth...

Been shifting my focus on building a new prototype project, I want to use this project as therapy, like Are You Happy was. Been feeling stressed lately, so I'm releasing that to this project #gamedev #indiedev #RPGInABox

New update to Crypta is finally here! minaridev.itch.io/crypta-depth... #gamedev #indiedev #RPGInABox #voxel #gameupdate

Been taking a break from development due to lack of interest, but now I'm back at it. Time to finish this update finally. Added some blood splatters to improve torture room #gamedev #indiedev #Voxel #RPGInABox

Released a new blog post, sharing some potentially controversial opinions about running an business and so on. Just needed to share my thoughts, feel free to disagree. #gamedev #entrepreneurship #business #blog www.minaridev.com/l/personal-t...

Working with one of the rooms in the prison level #gamedev #indiedev #RPGInABox

Been distro hopping in typical Linux fashion but I've also gotten some work done, first look on the new prison map, part of the 0.2 update Oh, and if you wonder, I chose to pick CachyOS #gamedev #indiedev #RPGInABox #Linux

Zombie death animation. Yes, that is Windows Vista theme on Linux Mint haha #gamedev #indiedev #RPGInABox #Linux

First new thing to the 0.2 update will be a new zombie model. The original is really not accurate for medieval setting. New model uses rusty armor now. #gamedev #indiedev #RPGInABox #dungeoncrawler

Tiny update for Crypta has been released, improving few minor things. Next is going to be 0.2 update which will add a new level and few other things I have planned minaridev.itch.io/crypta-depth... #gamedev #indiedev #RPGInABox

I said I would do this in a few days but life got in the way 😅 Anyway. Crypta: Depths Of Darkness has now been released in Itch. Go check it out and give feedback! minaridev.itch.io/crypta-depth... #gamedev #indiedev #RPGInABox #DungeonCrawler

About to start streaming horror side project development www.twitch.tv/minaridev #gamedev #indiedev #RPGInABox

Finally got around fixing most of the bugs present in Crypta, just need to record a trailer and setup a itch page. Going to do that in next few days. Streaming development of a side project later today too! #RPGInABox #gamedev #indiedev

As someone who's been in this for the long haul, and seen it break more than not, I get it. I can already see game dev bsky coming out of the woodwork with the cautionary tales. I still fundamentally believe it is good to dream.
