Building vertical marketing material for Shot One Fighters for the first time. Weird resolution to design for, but you can play with the margins in ways you can't with horizontal. Shaping up nicely! #fgc #indiedev #gamedev

Showed @jmcrofts.bsky.social some progress on our roguelite fighter. He mentioned aerial combos. 𝑺𝒂𝒚 𝒍𝒆𝒔𝒔, 𝑰 𝒈𝒐𝒕 𝒚𝒐𝒖. Threw together "Aerial Rave", a new string you can discover and level up during a run, and hit a nasty 19 hit combo with it. #fgc #indiedev #gamedev

The Junkership did 𝙉𝙊𝙏 enjoy getting beat up. I have a serious problem on my hands. 𝒢𝑜𝒹 𝒽𝑒𝓁𝓅 𝓊𝓈 𝒶𝓁𝓁. 😨 #screenshotsaturday #fgc #indiedev #gamedev

This combo is feeling so juicy. Love when all the little pieces finally start clicking together. #fgc #indiegame #gamedev #animation

New #animation is shaping up and I’m stoked with how it’s turning out. #indiedev #gamedev #fgc

Bonus stage time! Lets go! Still have some work to do on this, but the first pass feels super fun. All the hit react #animation with the jiggling bits and bobs was a blast to put together. Super happy with how this is turning out. #fgc #gamedev #indiedev

Heads up Maya animators: don't pay $2k/year for Maya. Autodesk doesn't advertise it, but Maya Indie is the exact same software for $350/year. Only catch is you need to make under $100k. #animation #gamedev #indiedev

Volley's new moves are starting to click together in some really fun ways. Can't wait to see what players better than me do with this kit. #fgc #indiedev #gamedev

Throwing together a new #animation for Volley, it's a bit wild. This is only Lv.01 version by the way, the upgraded ones are going to feel even more insane. Loving how it's feeling so far. #fgc #indiedev #gamedev

🔊 𝗦𝗢𝗨𝗡𝗗 𝗢𝗡! Fridgebot got a full overhaul! Reworked behavior, new visual feedback, and our audio engineer went off on the sound design. This encounter is finally kicking some serious ass! #fgc #indiedev #gamedev #animation

Playtesters wanted more mobility options, so I threw together some #animation and built out the moves. You can pick between Guilty Gear air dashes, KOF runs, or MvC2 double jumps during your run. Should make your kit way more expressive. #indiedev #gamedev #fgc

Playtesters really liked the double jump, so I gave it a custom #animation to improve the feel. It's pretty strong against the Godbuster. Hopefully you can snag it during your run. #gamedev #indiedev #fgc

First boss #animation coming together and I'm stoked with how nasty this guys moveset is feeling. Pure old school arcade energy. 𝘍𝘭𝘪𝘤𝘬 𝘰𝘧𝘧. #indiedev #indie #gamedev #fgc

I’ve been teaching myself how to build behavior trees in Unity, and so far the results have been great. I think this guy is going to end up kicking some serious ass. #animation #gamedev #indiedev #fgc

We're living it up at #EVO in the indie dev area (booth X10)! Come check out Kiera in a playable form and check out a preview of our roguelite mode! Cheers! 🔥

Arachnophobes beware 🕷️ This spider’s got some nasty new attacks, and if all else fails, he’ll spin to win. These were a blast to animate and are gonna feel nasty in-game. #animation #indiedev #gamedev #fgc

Whole bunch of new followers? Welcome! Here’s some #animation I put together with help from @pcabreraanim.bsky.social, these are gonna feel so damn good in game! 🥊 #indiedev #gamedev #fgc @shotonefighters.bsky.social

Really loving how this electric variant’s coming together. The knock-up #animation hits hard and feels great in-game. Definitely gonna be a menace to deal with. #indiedev #gamedev #fgc

We'll be at EVO August 1-3 showing off Shot One Fighters in Las Vegas! See you there!

Totally forgot about this cinematic intro I threw together. Kept it fast and punchy. So tired of fighting games that make you sit through the same dragged-out #animation for the 1000th time. 𝑰’𝒎 𝒉𝒆𝒓𝒆 𝒕𝒐 𝒑𝒍𝒂𝒚, 𝒏𝒐𝒕 𝒘𝒂𝒕𝒄𝒉 𝒂 𝒎𝒐𝒗𝒊𝒆. #fgc #gamedev #indiegames

I hate this 𝙛𝙪𝙘𝙠𝙞𝙣𝙜 meme so much that I had to make my own. Slapped this shit together in a blind rage this morning. 𝑯𝒐𝒑𝒆 𝒚𝒐𝒖’𝒓𝒆 𝒑𝒓𝒐𝒖𝒅. 🤬 #kpopdemonhunter #animation #indiedev #gamedev #fgc

Arachnophobes, don't fret! 𝙄 𝙜𝙤𝙩 𝙩𝙝𝙚 𝙗𝙖𝙨𝙩𝙖𝙧𝙙! Blam-o! 🕷️ #animation #gamedev #indiedev

Arachnophobes beware! 🕷️ You really don't want to get blasted by this guys webbing! Stoked with how this #animation turned out. #gamedev #indiedev

HOLY SHIT! LETS FUCKING GO! I haven't been this stoked for a new fighting game in quite some time. This looks so good! #fgc #marvel

💭 I have a personal philosophy about in-game #animation: no matter how flashy or well-crafted my attacks are, if the target doesn’t react in a satisfying way, the impact is lost. Without strong feedback, even the coolest moves feel hollow. #gamedev #indiedev

Ayooo! www.kickstarter.com/projects/gea... Come take a look at my buddies kickstarter, he's 99% funded and needs a little more help pushing it over the edge! Y'all know what to do! 𝙄𝙩'𝙨 𝙖 𝙨𝙥𝙞𝙧𝙞𝙩𝙪𝙖𝙡 𝙨𝙪𝙘𝙘𝙚𝙨𝙨𝙤𝙧 𝙩𝙤 𝙅𝙖𝙠 𝙄𝙄 @westonmitchell.com #signalboost #indiedev #kickstarter #JakAndDaxter #JakII

#CotW is pretty slick, Loving the move set #Ronaldo ended up getting, inspired me to throw this together. #animation #gamedev #indiedev #fgc

Quick kick #animation sequence I put together, this character’s been a blast to animate. #indiedev #gamedev

Testing out some early combo strings for Fridge, really happy with how his animations are coming together. Feels chunky in all the right ways. #gamedev #indiedev #animation #fgc

These move cards were a total pain to assemble, but 100% worth it, they look so slick in-engine. Massive shoutout to the amazing @schmerp.bsky.social for the card art! 🌀 @shotonefighters.bsky.social #fgc #animation #gamedev #indiedev

Cooking up something big! Just wrapped a fresh batch of animations for the next boss fight, gonna feel real good once we start dialing it in. 🧪 #fgc #animation #indiedev #gamedev

💭 I really hate how diluted the term "indie" has become. You’ve got teams of fewer than ten people barely scraping by being compared to studios with hundreds of employees. It feels disingenuous, and I wish it was something people talked about more.

Finally coming together! Been running through the loop the past couple of days, feels awesome to experiment and build some absolutely broken move sets. #indiedev #gamedev #fgc #shotonefighters

Playing around with strings, threw this together today. Feels nice and chunky. 🍲 #indiegame #gamedev #fgc

Buster Kick goes hard, really feeling this one. 𝘐 𝘨𝘰𝘵𝘵𝘢 𝘴𝘦𝘦 𝘪𝘧 𝘐 𝘤𝘢𝘯 𝘤𝘩𝘢𝘪𝘯 𝘪𝘵 𝘪𝘯𝘵𝘰 𝘩𝘦𝘳 𝘋𝘗. 🤔🔥 #animation #indiedev #gamedev #fgc

Let’s gooooooo! 💥 This bot is wild, an absolute menace! Hyped with how the #animation and hit reacts came out! #indiedev #gamedev #fgc

This guy ain't fucking around anymore, shit’s about to get real. #animation #indiedev #gamedev #fgc

Check out GearGrit by @pandan.bsky.social, pretty sure it was inspired by Jak II, and it totally nails that classic PS2-era vibe. Grab the demo and give it a go! #indiedev #jak #daxter #geargrit

These 'hit react' #animations are really coming together, super happy with how they’re turning out! 🥊 #gamedev #indiedev #animation #fgc

Staying organized is key! Here's a quick #animation breakdown showing everything playing in the viewport. A clean, behind-the-scenes look at the workflow. 🎥 #gamedev #indiedev #fgc

Came across this old clip from the #SteelSeries Neon Rider #animation I put together a few years back. It’s a cool before-and-after of the #Maya viewport versus the final render.

Just had a brutal Maya freeze and lost 2 hours of work (auto-save wasn’t set up after a reformat 😭). Found this app that forces a crash to trigger Maya’s "Crash Handler" and save your scene to %TEMP. Saved my ass big time, highly recommend.👍 #animation #maya

Quick little #animation, but I’m super happy with how chunky that uppercut feels at the end. #gamedev #indiedev #fgc

Twenty years on #Steam, wild to see it finally hit that milestone. 𝒜𝓃𝓎 𝑜𝓉𝒽𝑒𝓇 𝒱𝑒𝓉𝑒𝓇𝒶𝓃𝓈 𝑜𝓊𝓉 𝓉𝒽𝑒𝓇𝑒?

Arachnophobes beware! 🕷️ Whipped up a hanging entry #animation for this spider. Really dig how it turned out. #gamedev #indiedev

Had a lot of fun taking a more defensive approach with this #animation and messing around with different options as it progresses. 🛡️🤛 #gamedev #indiedev #fgc @shotonefighters.bsky.social

Rig on! Threw together this fun little #animation last night during #VGA2024. Pretty stoked with how it turned out. #gamedev #indiedev

Calling all new #fgc followers! Make sure you check out this starter pack featuring out games page, @shotonefighters.bsky.social, and a bunch of developers who moved on over! #gamedev #indiedev

Check out this combat #animation I threw together, really happy with the overall flow. #gamedev #indiedev #fgc
