Here's one for the #GameDevs Threw together a nifty (but fake) soundwave shader so people can see when the sound is supposed to be playing if they can't hear it. #IndieDev #IndieGame #GameDev #IndieDev #Unity #Unity3D #ShaderGraph #VFX

And this is what I wanted the dissolve effect for :) In The Vaults Below Durn, I'm going to add a volume calibration screen before the main menu so people can definitely hear the knocking. gongylus.itch.io/the-vaults-b... #GameDesign #BrackeysGameJam #GameDev #IndieGame #IndieDev #GameJams #VFX

New thumbnail for Vaults Below Durn: A Field Study. More indicative of the game itself ^_^ gongylus.itch.io/the-vaults-b... #BrackeysGameJam #Brackeys #IndieGame #IndieDev #GameDesign #GameDev #GameJam

🤔 I'm starting to think The Vaults Beneath Durn is too challenging for anyone who isn't a #Phasmophobia player. 👻 gongylus.itch.io/the-vaults-b... #IndieGame #IndieDev #HorrorGame #DeductionGame #ExplorationGame #GameDesign #BrackeysGameJam

Now with touchscreen support ^_^ The Vaults Below Durn: A Field Study. A deduction based dungeon exploration game. gongylus.itch.io/the-vaults-b... #BrackeysGameJam #Brackeys #GameDesign #GameDev #IndieDev #IndieGame #disabledgamers #AbleToPlay #inclusivegames

Another boost in #accessiblity for The Vaults Below Durn. I've enable mouse controls, so now the game can be played entirely with a mouse and a single button. :) gongylus.itch.io/the-vaults-b... #AbleToPlay #InclusiveGaming #BrackeyGameJam #Brackeys #GameDesign

Glad I made time to add a #HardOfHearing mode. One of the clues is a quiet knocking behind the doors. This would have been an #accessibility problem for a lot of people. So I added a toggle that replaces the knocking with a visual effect. :) #inclusivegaming #ablegamers #gamedesign #BrackeysGameJam

The Vaults Below Durn: A Field Study is out now and playable in browser! Made in a week by a solo dev for #BrackeysGameJam gongylus.itch.io/the-vaults-b... #Brackeys #GameDev #GameDesign #IndieDev #IndieGame

Got the ending done on the game so it's mechanically complete now :) I won't post a video of the ending yet, just to avoid spoilers 😁 Still gotta do the home screen, credits, bit more audio, flame effect, endless mode, and hopefully hard of hearing mode. #brackeysgamejam #brackeys #gamedev #gamejam

As someone who isn't an animator, this 💀 scene was effing difficult. Almost a full day of the game jam spent on this 😰 And I still have the finale cinematic to do. #Brackeys #BrackeyGameJam #GameDev #IndieGame #IndieDev #Unity #Unity3D

What's behind door number 1? Ding Ding Ding! #Tentacles! #GameDev #IndieGame #GameJam #BrackeysGameJam #Brackeys

End of Day 3 of #Brackeys Game Jam! Got the procedural generation all working, added UI, and the clues. The game is about finding your way through a strange dungeon by paying attention to very subtle clues in each room. #BrackeysGameJam #IndieGame #GameJam #GameDev #IndieDev

I haven't forgotten about #BrackeysGameJam! Took me a day to come up with an idea for "Strange Places". It's pretty broad so doesn't narrow down ideas! This should do the job anyway. Here we are at end of day 1. #BrackeysGameJam #GameDev #IndieGame #IndieDev #GameJam #GameDesign #GameDevelopment

In The Path Below, running from a room puts the monsters at the bottom of the deck. But when you ARE at the bottom of the deck... panic mode engages. #indiegame #dungeonmaster #streamer #cardgame #pathbelow #vtuber #envtuber #vtuberen

You almost fought a GOD barehanded #indiegame #streamerfails #roguelike #gaming #funny #indiedev #unity3d #vtuber #gamingclips #cardgame #PathBelow #fail

First... distract target. Then... discombobulate. 😤 I built this dungeon to test the smartest players. Tag a streamer who can strategize. #shorts #indiegame #roguelike #sherlock #cardgame #gaming #streamer #vtuber #strategygames

This is "Path Below," a live interactive roguelike played on stream. I control the dealer, Chat controls the player. I can run this on Discord if any #streamers want to play. Lmk. youtube.com/@gongylusgames #unity3d #indiegame #vtuber #scoundrel #strategygames #cardgame #roguelike

Sometimes the RNG in my game is just cruel. Player made it to the final boss... equipped with nothing but a rock. 🪨 vs 🐍 I'm documenting the whole development of Path Below over on TikTok. Come watch the chaos. www.tiktok.com/@gongylus?_r... #IndieDev #GameDev #Roguelike #TTRPG #IndieGame #Unity

This dungeon is made of cards. The audience makes the choices. The Path Below is a dungeon-crawling card game you play live with the stream. Tutorial is up. Learn the rules and decide your fate. #IndieDev #GameDesign #CardGame #Roguelike #LiveGames #TTRPG #DnD #PathBelow

I'm working on something verrrrryyyy interesting 🤫 Watch this space! #TikTok #Vtuber #PathBelow #GameDev #GameDesign #IndieDev #IndieGame

Is it just me, or are there somehow even less #GameDev and #GameDesign jobs out there at the moment? 😕 Hope this is just an annual thing.

Does it count as exercise if I animate my legs walking? 🚶‍♀️ #MoCap #Unity3D #KinectV2 #VTuber #ENVTuber #GameDev #IndieDev #AngelSpit

More fun with my toon 😁Any other #Venjent fans here? 😂 #Unity3D #Blender #ZBrush #Kinect #OpenSeeFace #GameDev #IndieDev

6 weeks development of #BewareTheMimic ✅ Physics ✅ Procedural dungeon ✅ Mimic can transform ✅ Mimic & Hunter can attack ✅ Mimic & Hunter can grab objects ✅ Level objectives ✅ Network over Steam ✅ Third party server authentication #GameDev #GameDesign #IndieGame #IndieDev #ScreenshotSaturday

🤑 Find LOOT hidden in cupboards and drawers if you are brave enough to look! But always, #BewareTheMimic! #GameDesign #GameDev #IndieGame #IndieDev #HideNSeek #DnD

Who's ever seen a #Welsh doubloon? 🪙🌟 You will in #BewareTheMimic I decided :D #GameDesign #GameDev #IndieGame #GameArt #ScreenshotSaturday #LowPoly #IndieDev

Feature Creep Brain: 🐺"ADD A GREEN LIGHT THAT LOOKS RED!" Productivity Brain: 😕"That doesn't even..." Feature Creep Brain: 🐺"DO IT!" Productivity Brain: 🤦‍♀️"sigh... fine." #GameDesign #GameDev #VFX #Unity3D #IndieDev #IndieGame #RedLightGreenLight

#ScreenshotSaturday I've mostly been working on a lighting solution for procedurally generated dungeons as well as refactoring a whole bunch of the character controller code this week. #BewareTheMimic #GameDesign #IndieDev #IndeGame #DnD #HideNSeek

Finally added a HUD! Now you can see how quickly you're going to 💀💀💀. Progress! 😅 The portrait thumbnail is dynamic for the Mimic, so it updates to whatever they are transformed into. #BewareTheMimic #GameDesign #IndieGame #GameDev #IndieDev

💡The Hunters wield a magic lamp that banishes the mimic... but at a price. Every second it glows, their vision dims, leaving them blind to danger. Use it wisely, or risk everything. Step back, and their sight slowly returns. Will you dare use it? #BewareTheMimic #IndieGame #GameDesign #IndieDev

Definitely not a Mimic. #BewareTheMimic #ScreenshotSaturday #GameDev #IndieGame

Added health bars to the hunters that appear when they are within range and a nice damage overlay so the hunters know they are getting about to get gobbled. #BewareTheMimic #GameDesign #GameDev #IndieGame #DnD #DungeonsAndDragons #DnDHomebrew #Mimic #IndieDev

Got The Mimic's basic attack done today. When the Mimic is standing still, they can "crouch" to stop their model rotating when they look around. This also summons a magic circle. If a hunter steps into the circle, the Mimic can attack! #GameDev #GameDesign #IndieDev #IndieGame #BewareTheMimic

Made a real nice character light. It uses a randomly animated cookie to give the light movement, and has a subtle, intermittent flicker. 💡 The line art shader is looking pret-ty cool too! 🖌️ #GameDev #GameDesign #IndieDev #IndieGame #BewareTheMimic #Unity3D #URP #GameDevelopment

Not sure if the effect is too much or too little haha oh well, early days. #GameDesign #Shader #GameDev #IndieDev #IndieGame #BewareTheMimic

Taking a break and experimenting with shaders today. I was thinking of making #BewareTheMimic toon shaded (I still might) but why not try something different? #GameDesign #GameArt #IndieDev #IndieGame #GameDev

Got first/third person camera switching working with zoom and the mimic can lock the rotation of their character model so they can look around without moving 🎥👁️ #BewareTheMimic #GameDesign #GameDev #IndieDev #IndieGame #HideNSeek #HideAndSeek

Physics + Networking is hard. Finally got physics based object handling working over the network. Any thing that isn't nailed down can be picked up (or transformed into if you are the mimic 😱) #BewareTheMimic #GameDesign #GameDev #IndieDev #IndieGame

Today on Networking Is Hard. Started making a Game Manager for #BewareTheMimic. ATM it locks movement before all the player are loaded in, chooses a random player to be the mimic, and only enables the mimic ability on that player. It's rough but a start! #GameDev #GameDesign #IndieDev #IndieGame

Erm WHAT?! This wasn't forecast and we haven't even had our first frost yet! ❄️🌨️ My poor vegetables 😭🥬🍓🫛 #Gardening #VegetableGarden #GrowYourOwnFood #SnowDay #UK
