WONDERLAND has returned, new teaser video! Been away for awhile but now things are moving forwards nicely again. I'll try to stay more active here as I progress towards a steam page and then hopefully a demo in the not too distant future. #unrealengine #gamedev #indiegame #screenshotsaturday #ue5

Working on a new Wonderland teaser, more test footage. Level design is just a concept, but I do kinda like the look. #gamedev #indiegame #ue5 #unrealengine #conceptart

Working on a new teaser for WONDERLAND, some test footage options to start it with. #gamedev #indiegame #ue5 #unrealengine

The Wetland Project has been my favorite alternate-reality radio experience since it began. Since it only happens once a year, you can’t become accustomed to it. Close your eyes and be washed over by the sonic reality of an isolated bog on Saturna Island!

Thanks for the comment. Looked thru his work, great stuff and yet he’s struggling as are most artists and freelancers these days. Donated a bit to his buymeacoffee as solidarity, recommend others do the same as well.

What’s more frustrating is that actual photographers like @robotwig.com are doing legit stellar work with models for real but not getting the same numbers. Check out his BTS setups too.

I've been working on getting all of the weapons ingame and have spent some time learning how to make weapon sounds as well. Not my forte, but I'm quite happy with these. Mostly done just by layering stuff from the Boom library with gunshot samples from 80s films. #gamedev #indiegame #ue5 #gameaudio

Always faster to switch to your detective special than to reload. Such a small feature, but getting this to actually work right has been a struggle. Still a bit of smoothing to do, but overall works really well! Longer video of new stuff soon! #gamedev #indiegame #ue5 #blender #unrealengine

That late 80s, early 90s OVA cyberpunk... That's the stuff.

I've never seen Pingu voiceacting actually recorded, this is amazing

Put the Carl Gustav Kulsprutepistol aka Swedish K ingame, textures are unfinished though and it's currently using the anims from a different SMG so the hand positions don't really match. Still, I really like the look of the gun already. #gamedev #blender #indiegame #unrealengine #ue5

kind of darkly funny that "gender studies" is the stereotypical "useless degree" because gender studies will help you understand a large and important chunk of the current psychosis in american life

Heja sverige! Here's a Carl Gustav to make up for the lack of proper Wonderland updates. This one I should region lock so no americans can use it. New gameplay mechanics footage coming up next week I truly hope. #gamedev #indiegame #ue5 #blender #3dart #unrealengine

Hello bluesky!

Long time no Wonderland updates, but development has chugged along nicely. The hit reaction system still needs a bit of work, but it's starting to look quite cinematic already. Combination of physics based reactions and canned anims. #gamedev #indiegame #3d #unrealengine #screenshotsaturday

New hit reactions system for WONDERLAND. Very happy with how this is shaping up. Physical hit reactions + animations, based on the direction where the hit is coming from etc. Still some tweaks (and particle vfx) needed to make it more cinematic, but getting there. #gamedev #indiegame #unrealengine

It's always faster switching to your snubnose .38 than reloading. Starting to implement a backup weapon system in Wonderland #gamedev #indiegame #blender #ue5

New gameplay coming soon, but til then, here's more weapon renders. Been working on the project a good year and a half and I've learned quite a bit. MAT-49 was one of the first weapons I did for Wonderland and it showed. Touched up the model + retextured it. #gamedev #unrealengine #blender #3dart

Haven't posted in awhile, but Wonderland is steadily chugging along. Implementing a backup weapon system, where the player can quickly switch to a backup instead of reloading in a tight spot. Some of the old armory will be moved to this role, but here's a new one also. #gamedev #indiegame #blender

I remember how good Mechwarrior 2 was when playing it as a kid, had a joystick setup (just a basic Gravis Analog Pro though). Then many many years later tried it again, then with a mouse and keyboard and while it was obviously so much more intuitive and easy to play, the feeling just wasn't there.

Started work on the first level design with the new gravity build. Visuals aint amazing yet, but the concept is there and it works, couldn't be happier. #gamedev #unrealengine #blender #3dart #indiegame

So, I've a lot of guns (22 by my count!) ready for Wonderland, modelled and animated (many share anims though). A key part of a FPS experience are the weapon sounds though, and that's where I've zero experience. Any sound designers who'd be interested in helping out? #gamedev #gameaudio #sounddesign

New gameplay footage of Wonderland (finally)! Gravity was super glitchy in my build, so hired a coder to do the gravity implementation and he's done a fantastic job! Can't wait to start building on this. Also some footage of the players "Gravity sync" ability. #gamedev #indiegame #screenshotsaturday

As someone who spent 2005-2015 neck deep in Styleforum (and Tyylit, Keikari, Superfuture etc), it’s been wild (and an absolute delight) to witness the origin story of a real poster. The whole #menswear community was just such a weird moment in internet history.

Tomorrow I'll post video of the new gravity system which is fking amazing if I may say so, but today is a gun day. Schwarzenegger style finnish Valmet M78 for Wonderland. Modelled in #blender, textured in substance (not 100% finished), rendered in marmoset. #gamedev #indiegame #unrealengine #3dart

What's a movie you think is perfect? I've a ton of films I can find no fault in, but In the Mood For Love is just something that reveals something new on every watch. For the longest time Chungking Express was my favorite of WKWs work, but recently I've definitely started to prefer this.

So as the coder is working on the new prototype, what else is there to do but to model a yet another gun for Wonderland. Marlin 1895 lever action rifle. I dunno, can there be too many guns in an FPS? #gamedev #indiegame #blender #unrealengine #3dart #screenshotsaturday

Same test corridor, new gun! The swiss STGW-57. Animations are about 95% there, sounds obviously temporary. I actually recruited some paid help to redo the codebase for this project, hope to have better gameplay footage in the next few weeks. #gamedev #indiegame #blender #3dart #unrealengine

New artillery for Wonderland, STGW-57. Texture is somewhat temporary, havent spent much time on it yet. Especially the grips need work. #gamedev #indiedev #3dart #blender #unrealengine

Wishlisted 👍

IRON ANGELS III (Woo, 1989)

Videogames are a waste of time. But so is your job.

Lowpoly for Stgw-57 done! Around 30k tris. This was one of the fiddliest things I've modelled. Some really weird shapes. Happy with the result, next I'll add some more detail for the hipoly. Hope to have this ingame soon, big things coming for Wonderland. #gamedev #blender #3dart #unrealengine

Hmm, someone else got there first as a surreal gravity FPS. Kinda annoying, but otoh I've been wondering why the same concept hasn't been previously used. Atleast this kinda validates my vision and apart from the similarities in mechanics, this doesn't seem to share much with Wonderland overall.

Still working on some heavier artillery for Wonderland, this'll be a fun one #gamedev #indiedev #3dart #blender #unrealengine

Working on some heavier artillery for Wonderland. #gamedev #indiedev #blender #3dart

Sig Sauer, Jack Bauer. Got the Sig P226 ingame. I quite like the animations (walk is missing), feels like a pretty hefty gun, which it is. #gamedev #indiedev #blender #unrealengine

Went to see Onoma exhibitions’ Utopia at Fiskars Village. With the young un these museum visits are always quite chaotic, but I loved it anyways. Here are some personal favorites of mine, including the piece by @samlakewrites.bsky.social and Sami Ryhänen. Very much worth the visit. #art #fiskars

100% Utah! 👍New handgun for Wonderland, the Sig P226. Texture is sorta temp, gonna work on it more later but for now it'll do #gamedev #indiedev #blender #unrealengine

What an absolutely fantastic video. When Police Quest 2 on the MT-32 hits, it's just pure joy 🥰

I hate being bald and walking the same direction as another bald guy. It looks like we’re being summoned by our king

Oops I did it again, modelled a new handgun for Wonderland. The Sig P226, no good for shooting at Patrick Swayze, very good for shooting up into the air and screaming. Lowpoly modelled in #blender, hipoly up next. #gamedev #indiedev #unrealengine #blender

throwback #screenshotsaturday - back in the days, I was in the Redeemedsoft team, who did The Opera HL mod, based on HK action films. I did most (all?) of the weapon textures and a bunch of the character textures. I dunno if people remember this one, but it was pretty cool. #halflife #hlmod

Friday night firefight - my ECs bravely charging against a big dumb Dorito dreadnought. The table was way too small and I hadnt played in ages, but we still had a fun couple of turns. #horusheresy #warhammercommunity

Reposting my Wonderland teaser trailer #2 for #screenshotsaturday. Quite happy with how it turned out, but next I’d like to start spending more effort on the level, enemy and concept design. Any concept artists who might be interested in collaborating? Fun stuff to do here 😊 #gamedev #conceptart

New WONDERLAND teaser, it's better than the previous one! More gameplay, more shooting! www.youtube.com/watch?v=hmFB... #gamedev #indiedev #unrealengine #blender

Shooting up a police station in Wonderland. I've done some small playable level sections to get some footage recorded for my next teaser. Next up going to turn this into a more playable, large police station map for the player go all T800 in. #gamedev #indiedev #unrealengine #blender

Wonderland environment art stuff. The guns are realistic, but this isn't exactly Call of Duty #gamedev #indiedev #unrealengine #blender
