Connecting everything feels fast at first. Until one small change affects multiple parts. Lately I’ve been keeping systems more separated. Slower early on, but much easier to manage later. How do you approach this? #gamedev #indiedev

Big step for Chips Tycoon. Moved from a single test scene to Lender → Market Core systems now persist (economy, inventory, storage). Still using cubes, focusing on systems first. Next Customers place orders, player cooks and serves. #gamedev #indiedev #unity

A simple “buy ingredients and cook fries” idea became a system design challenge. Storage, capacity, validation, separation. Small mistakes can break everything. Still early, but the foundation is coming together. How do you approach system design? #gamedev #indiedev #indiegamedev

AI tools are powerful. They help us learn faster, solve problems, and explore ideas. But there’s a risk. The danger isn’t AI replacing humans but humans stopping thinking. Use AI to learn, not to outsource your thinking. #AI #ArtificialIntelligence #CriticalThinking #Technology

Dev update: Chips Tycoon Containerbased storage added: gas cylinders, oil barrels, and ingredient containers now set storage limits. As game is built from scratch, it requires refactoring to keep the architecture clean. #gamedev #indiedev #unity3d #tycoongame #simulationgame #devlog #indiegame

Main Quest: Build a Tycoon Game Completed: ✓ Player movement ✓ Economy system ✓ Buy zones ✓ Item data ✓ Inventory ✓ Item storage ✓ Ingredient storage Active Quest: ⚠ Fix storage capacity (cart + storage controller) #gamedev #indiedev #unity3d #buildinpublic

Respawned. Inventory: [x] Cancelled prototypes [x] Scrapped ideas [✓] Story (paper item) Active quest: Chips Tycoon. Back on the map. #IndieDev #GameDev #BuildInPublic #ChipsTycoon #GameDevelopment

Trying to get back to Unreal Game Development, going into art slowed me down, art is necessary for step forward, but not right now. #indie #indiegames #indiegamedev #indiegamedevelopment

Took a long break, now time to get back into gear. #indie #indiegames #indiegamedevelopment #gamedevelopment

I am not an #artist but to work on my game, I have to become one. Bought a few #conceptart courses on #learnsquared from #humblebundle, now I have to buy a waqom tablet next, will take little time. #indie #indiegames #indiegamedev #gamedev #gamedevelopment

#WorkOnYourWhy Why are you putting so much effort into #gamedev ? I have my why crystal clear, yet I am afraid that my time is short #indie #indiegames #indiegamedev #gamedevelopment #motivation #keepitrolling

Had too many ideas, trying to implement them using AI #indie #indiegames #indiegamedev #gamedev #gamedevelopment #animation

I wanted to keep going on, and on and on and on like it is now or never, wanted to escape but the feeling of doing nothing is too heavy. Finally trying to take a break. #indie #indiegames #indiegamedev #gamedev #gamedevelopment #rest #break #recharge

Sword Unwrapped in #Blender, will do unwrapping of sword made in #Maya Unwrapping in Maya takes longer time, but more satisfying than blender. #Followup of #FullTimeGameDev #3dArtPro course by @thomasbrush.bsky.social #indie #indiegames #indiegamedev #gamedev #gamedevelopment

Although there is an automatic #UV tool in #Maya, it is not recommended to completely do automatic, creating UVs for #ghostbustertrap, a very hectic but necessary job. #indie #indiegames #indiegamedev #indiegamedevelopment #lookdevelopment

Blade is looking fine now. There are a lot of alternate methods of doing one simple thing. #Followup of #FullTimeGameDev #3DArtPro course of @thomasbrush.bsky.social in #Maya instead of blender #indie #indiegames #indiegamedev #gamedev #gamedevelopment

The other side of #GhostbusterTrap, as far as this device is concerned, it is just a #learningmaya practice and does not have a real utility, except showing it off in a video. Hats off to #LucasRidley for such an amazing #tutorial #indie #indiegames #indiegamedev #gamedev

#GameDevelopment is stuck because of underpowered laptop, not exactly getting time on home pc and a difficult routine. #LearningMaya is however on speed. #LucasRidley is a great resource for that. #indie #indiegames #indiegamedev #gamedev #gamedevelopment #3dart

Last few days, I was in a strange kind of #burnout, wanted to work but could not. Had to balance out by doing no work at all. #indie #indiegames #indiegamedev #gamedev #refresh #balance

Here is a look on #MGSDocks after correctly mapping normals, it was a very ambitious project but not really a unique one. So just for portfolio. Shifting to #maya anyways. #3dart #indie #indiegames #indiegamedev #gamedev

Reusing my blender muscle memory through 3d art pro course of @thomasbrush.bsky.social Already done some decent works in blender, like MGS docks, were they performant, can't really say. Shifting to #Maya soon anyways. #indie #indiegames #Indiegamedev #gamedev
