Announcing our first public 🫧DEMO🫧 You'll be able to try it out during 🌊Ocean Fest🌊 (18-25 May) Visit our Steam Store Page for more details! #indiegame #gaming #videogame #indiedev #gamedev #oceanfest

been working a bit with these cool people for the past few months doing some game design & designing fishy enemies veeery neat (and beautiful) project, check it out! :D #gamedesign #gamedev

health dispenser #gamedev #indiegame #retrofps #indiedev

the fire payload... burns? also custom death fx if enemies are killed by fire! ✨ #gamedev #retrofps #games #screenshotsaturday

new level hazard: oversized hydraulic press pros: dangerous cons: dangerous #gamedev #indiegame #retrofps #games #fps

added a "throw" feature the player can now throw lethal cinnamon buns in a happy coincidence the usually land right-side up as well #gamedev #indiegame #retrofps

everyone dislikes genai in games, but kids and story-focused players the most. sounds like we'll be ok. just have to stay the course here and the "inevitable" new technology nobody likes will die. again. quanticfoundry.com/2025/12/18/g...

increasing the knockback on enemies was a good idea ⬆ #gamedev #indiegame #indiedev #retrofps

been playing around with different explosion types and made a "fall from the sky" type explosion #gamedev #indiegame #retrofps

working on an inventory thing, you can store all your barrels and turn your multi-barreled shotgun into a single-barreled shotgun (wow!) #gamedev #indiegame

sneaking a peek at the artificial sunset #gamedev #indiegame

added signs to the shops that ominously rotate towards the player, for clarity, of course #gamedev #indiegame

made a little sequence to get the player to look downwards when entering the room #gamedev #indiegame #leveldesign #retrofps #gaming

some payloads fire in a sustained mode and we had the obvious idea of adding a "beer barrel" to our shotgun(haha) - as a payload also doubles as a jetpack! #gamedev #indiegame #retrofps

the sidearm does a funky animation when loading it with new payloads #gamedev #indiegame #retrofps

double laser double_laser #gamedev #indiegame #fps

before/after did some lighting adjustments to our levels for our steam release turns out just cranking up your ambient lighting isn't a good way to light your levels #gamedev #indiegame #leveldesign

we just released our demo for CHAIN SHOTGUN for Steam Next Fest a game about adding an absurd amount of barrels to your shotgun, among other things check it out! store.steampowered.com/app/3970990/... #retrofps #indiegame #gamedev #FPS #indiedev

beam weapon revamped my shooting code to allow for beam-like payloads so now I can do things like this, still not sure what it should do outside of combat though 🤔 (also did some sound design 🔊) #gamedev #indiedev #gamefeel #retrofps #indiegame #boomershooter

I will never forget the immense disappointment I felt when I noticed I couldn't jump on the harpoons from HL2 anyway, this is the harpoon payload, it sticks to walls and you can jump on it! I generally try to make payloads do more than just "kill enemy better" #gamedev #indiedev #indiegame #games

the interact payload can do fascinating things! such as pressing a button or booping enemies #gamedev #indiegame #retrofps #gaming

the cutter payload can cut through things like fences, and now enemies as well #gamedev #retrofps #games #indiedev #gaming #gamefeel

just released chapter 1 of Chain Shotgun on Itch a movement shootery FPS where you can add a whole bunch of barrels that do a bunch of wild stuff to your Chain Shotgun bigcitywizard.itch.io/chain-shotgun #gamedev #indiedev #retrofps #gaming #games

decided to have each barrel type come with their own attachments and now the weapon looks absolutely ridiculous, in a good way! this is just at 11 barrels, current max is around 20 barrels, so far #indiegame #retrofps #gaming #indiedev #gamedev

i am of the opinion that all games should have jump pads #retrofps #indiegame #screenshotsaturday #gamedev

finally got around to doing some sound design for the basic enemies in the game, now it feels even more like bullying:( #indiegame #gaming #sounddesign #retrofps

big spinny thing, also doubles as an "elevator" that literally shoots you out of it #gamedev #indiegame #retrofps #gaming #indiedev

made a wall tool to speed up level design, of course I had to add some gamefeely elements to it as well #gamedev #indiedev #screenshotsaturday #leveldesign

tried to make my leaves to rustle a bit when moving through them, yeah wow looks very "natural" imo #gamedev #indiedev #indiegame #games

feature from a while back - you dash into boxes to launch them at whatever you're aiming at, still very happy with the feel of it #gamedev #gaming #retrofps #indiegame

i felt that instead of using a key to open the door it's better if you load it into your gun and shoot it at the door, of course #gamedev #retrofps #indiegame #gaming

explodable walls could work as ambush thing as well #gamedev #indiegame #retrofps #gaming

made explosives break certain walls #retrofps #indiegame #gamedev

i try to take a systematic approach, so anti-gravity ammotype affects props & debris (and the player as well!)

made an anti gravity ammotype felt a bit mean to use it like this tbh:( #indiegame #retrofps #gamedev

recently revamped some of the visuals for the explosive projectiles, also destructibles good 📦🔨 #gamedev #retrofps #indiedev

had this fan model lying around not being threatening enough so i turned it into an environmental trap something about being your own biggest fan etc etc #gamedev #retrofps #indiedev

regular velocity was getting boring so added bhopping to my movement shooterish game #gamedev #retrofps
