The solo dev curse: sit down to build something important spend 2 hours perfecting the milk cap animation instead every. single. time. youtube.com/shorts/lVV6V... #solodev #indiedev #gamedev #indiegame #unity3d

The Steam Spring Sale wraps up in exactly 48 hours! 🌸 If you've been on the fence about trying Hexbound, you can grab the new Spring Update right now for 60% off. Thank you so much to everyone supporting my solo dev journey! ⚔️👇 https://store.steampowered.com/app/3554020 #IndieGames #SoloDev

It’s crazy how much lighting and a few seasonal props can completely change the vibe of a room. ☀️ Left is Hexbound's old winter look, Right is the brand new Spring Update! The game is currently 60% off for the Steam Spring Sale. https://store.steampowered.com/app/3554020 #gamedev #indiegame #Cozy

Hexbound just got a Spring Makeover! 🌸 I completely overhauled the lighting, added seasonal decor, and optimisations! To celebrate the Spring Update, the game is 60% OFF for the Steam Spring Sale! https://store.steampowered.com/app/3554020 #SteamSpringSale #GameDev #IndieDev #IndieGames #SteamSale

Getting ready to cut the first trailer for my new game, but I'm completely torn on the art direction.  Should I stick with this semi-realistic aesthetic, or pivot to a stylised toon shader? What do you guys usually prefer playing? Let me know below! #GameDev #IndieDev #GameArt

Hey everyone! 👋 I made a video on one of the hardest parts of game dev: naming our games. I share lessons from my own mistakes (looking at you, Hexbound 😅) & a simple framework to help brainstorm. Hope it helps! 👇 https://youtu.be/eGwJspZMWd0 #indiedev, #makinggames, #gamedevcommunity

One of those tasks that was never that important, but with so many tables, I need to know which order is from which table.  Steam page soon! #solodev #blender #indiedev

Stuck in editing hell for my next YouTube video essay. Decided to finally ditch the AI voice and use my real one for this one. A bit terrifying haha. I really need to go into a “good enough” mentality if I want to finish this one. #indiedev #solodev #doneisbetterthanperfect

My favourite screen of the month.  It’s not a finished product yet, but it captures the vibe I’m going for: that split second of calm before the morning rush starts and the chaos begins. Thanks for following the journey. Back to the grind! #gamedev #screenshotsaturday

Onboarding new players got tricky. In my desire to make everything intuitive, it got a bit too confusing for playtesters.  So added extra layers as fallbacks in case players don't read the tutorial :D #IndieGame #solodev #WIPWednesday #gamedev #indiedev

What do you think? #IndieGame #solodev #WIPWednesday #gamedev #indiedev

In my roguelite barista game, you get a new day and a new perk. Today’s perk: Double Espresso ☕ Higher value drinks but - 5% fewer customers...(in the context of a chaotic cafe, this is relevant 😅 )  #IndieDevMonday #indiedev #gamedev #roguelite

Community check-in: In a barista roguelite, would you rather have faster brewing speeds for efficiency, or more tools for custom latte art? Speed vs. Style? goooo #FeedbackFriday #GameDev #indiedev #cozygames

The upgrades truck is officially rolling in. The idea is that when each new day starts, the truck pulls in and you can get fresh upgrades. WIP scene of the upgrades truck: #cozygames #gamedev #indiedev

Big difference between a mechanic that's 'clever' on paper & one that’s fun to play. For my upcoming barista roguelite, I've been testing a new truck system for restocks... Here are some WIPs  #IndieDevMonday

(another) early WIP of the barista sim. Been focusing on the lighting and the "calm" before the roguelite madness starts. It’s still very rough, but I’m finally seeing the atmosphere come together. What do you guys think of the colour palette? #cozygames #indiedev #gamedev

Spent way too long making sure the coffee grinding felt 'right' before I even had the core loop working. Priorities, right... ☕️ #GameDev

I’m currently in the "stripping away" phase. It’s tempting to overcomplicate a roguelite, but I’m finding that removing clunky mechanics is the only way to make the fast-paced barista loop actually feel good. If a feature gets in the way of the flow, it has to go #IndieDevMonday

One of my favorite things about Hexbound is seeing how people 'break' it. I used to worry when players solved a puzzle in a way I didn’t intend, buuut that's kinda the whole point 😅 #puzzlegame #gamedesign #indiedev

I’ve spent a long time in the world of logic puzzles with Hexbound, but one day, I decided it's time for a pretty big change. Moving from pure puzzles to a barista roguelite kind of feels like a *logical* shift. Different mechanics, same goal: creating a space to think. #indiedev #indiegame #gamedev
