#Devlog 24! Not much to write this week, but a bit more to show. And while grabbing screenshots, I accidentally ended up making a new #trailer from a fresh perspective. #GameDev #IndieGame mobilelast.itch.io/hanaa/devlog...

It was a cold weekend, so one racer clearly needed a #beanie. And since I ended up spending that entire weekend #modeling driver heads when I should’ve been resting off my flu, I might as well share some #WIP shots of the results. #Blender #Substance

Hello, #ScreenshotSaturday — meet the first batch of modular drivers! They’re now much more distinguishable, which will be important later on. Since they're mostly seen from behind, I started by focusing on the helmets. Got ideas for decorations? I’m all ears! #GameDev #IndieGame #3d

Been working on modular head models, and hopefully I’ll have something to show soon. Along the way, I accidentally mixed the new head’s materials with the old model... with some pretty #creepy results. #IndieGame #GameDev

#Devlog 23! Lots of moving parts this week — and conveniently, GIFs decided to stop working on Itch. Since I never manage to find the devlog thread when posting anyway, I’ll just keep sharing these here from now on. #SoloDev #Itch #IndieDev mobilelast.itch.io/hanaa/devlog...

The concept of turn-based racing feels exotic to many, so I need a clever way to explain it — “clever” being probably the hardest part. Seemed like a good time to put my #ScreenshotSaturday menu background series to use. Still need to figure out some better content, though. #IndieGame #GameDev

Dynamic obstacles can cause everything from hilarious #glitches to complete game freezes. I’ll have to be careful with these traps, though some deadlocks will probably still slip through. Well, that’s what demo versions are for. #GameDesign #IndieDev #GameDevelopment

One of the first prototypes of dynamic obstacles to spice up future tracks. More distractions are on the way, and if you’ve got ideas for similar obstacles, I’d love to hear them. #Physics #TurnBasedThursday #IndieGame #GameDev #Glitch

Couldn’t make progress on the menu today thanks to video playback issues, so I did some texturing instead. The driver’s washed-out pumpkin tone and blank stare capture the true spirit of the day after Halloween. #ScreenshotSaturday #GameDev #IndieGame #Substance

We are excited to host this week's official #TurnBasedThursday thread! #gamedevs & #indiedevs— drop your turn-based beauties below and don't forget to use the hashtag! #turnbased game fans —❤️,💬 and 🔁these amazing projects.🙏 Let’s make the algorithm take its turn too. 😎 #indiegamedev

#Modeling a new, more customizable driver head. After a few hours of aimless experimenting, I’ve ended up with something that looks oddly familiar. But I have no idea from where. #Blender #3D #GameDev #WIP

It was a productive week, as you can see in #Devlog 21. Next up: modeling driver heads. Let’s see if they turn out even half as handsome as William Luttgen. #ItchIo #IndieDev #GameDevelopment mobilelast.itch.io/hanaa/devlog...

The projector can now play 8mm cinefilm too, or at least something that vaguely resembles it. I can’t include too many videos, though, to stay under Itch’s 1GB size limit. (And the #squirrel wasn’t too keen on being filmed either.) #ScreenshotSaturday #GameDev #IndieGame #Video

Version 0.8.0 of Hanaa, the experimental #TurnBased #Racing #IndieGame, is live! This update brings a bunch of UI/UX improvements to make the experience smoother and more intuitive. Grab the free Windows build and see what’s new on #ItchIo: mobilelast.itch.io/hanaa/devlog... #GameDev #GameRelease

Ever wondered what’s happening behind opaque pause screens? Sometimes way more than there should be. #Glitch #Unity3D #GameDev #UI

Decided to celebrate #Friday by doing something completely useless — hidden honk buttons! Maybe I’ll find a use for them someday... #IndieDev #TurnBased #Gaming

🤩 Excited to officially host this week's #TurnBasedThursday All #GameDev and #IndieDev reply with your turn-based games and use the TBT hashtag☝️above Also be sure to @ anyone who should be in this thread to share the love! 🥰

Tip: If Unity complains about over four overlapping baked lights or too many shadow maps, but you only have one light, the culprit might be missing lightmap UVs on some of your meshes. Took me a while to track this down. They can be generated in the mesh importer. #Unity3D #Lighting #GameDevelopment

A cozy main menu background for #ScreenshotSaturday. There’s still plenty to refine, but the slide projector already takes it straight back to the ’70s. I’m planning to fill the photo tray with snapshots from older versions of the game, so a touch of history in there too. #IndieGame #GameDev

Happy #screenshotsaturday! Just sharing some shots from our 8-bit giant monster break-em-up Mega Kaiju Boom Ball — now live on Kickstarter! Re-posts and shares are welcome. :) #nesdev #neshomebrew #indiegames #indiegamedev #gamedev #retrogames #videogames

Evening routine: model abstract forms in #Blender, import into #Unity, experiment with angles, colors, and shaders, grab a screenshot, tidy it up in #Gimp, then bring it back into Unity as a background texture. The stupidest workflow ever, but here’s the result: a new start screen. #SoloDev

You can’t have a toy car track without a toy shovel and bucket. Back to modeling after a long break! #Blender #Substance #3D #Modeling

Aaand it's #ScreenshotSaturday once again! Time to pay the pixel tax. We want to see what you’ve been wrestling with all week. That new particle effect? The menu you finally centered? That horrifyingly broken physics object? #gamedev #indiedev #indiegame #gamedeveloper

Follow-up on last week’s #ScreenshotSaturday. Still some monkey-testing needed (button mashing to make sure transitions don’t break), but soon I can finally focus on making the #UI widgets look good. #IndieGame #GameDev

Hanaa v0.7.0 is here! 🚗✨ The experimental #TurnBased #Racing #Game now comes with fresh QoL upgrades, new music, and more. Grab the free Windows download + full notes on #ItchIo: mobilelast.itch.io/hanaa/devlog... #IndieDev #GameRelease

Fixed an issue where players couldn’t reposition the car after ending up under a bridge. No more dead ends now, though lining it up is still no easy task. #TurnBased #GameDevelopment #IndieDev

A win’s a win, even a small one! Finally squashed those annoying performance spikes that appeared during aiming. My custom Job updated a physics object that another component read in Update, stalling the main thread. No direct link made it a nightmare to catch in the profiler. #Unity #IndieGameDev

While fixing feedback on a confusing selection page, I ran into an old nemesis: baked track lights. Now they spill onto cars in the UI. This time it might actually be a win, as I kind of like how the cars follow global lighting. What do you think? #ScreenshotSaturday #IndieGame #GraphicDesign

Had some trouble with Itch connectivity yesterday, so the post is a bit late. Nothing spectacular this week, but at least some groundwork for the future. #IndieGame #Devlog #IndieDev #ItchIo mobilelast.itch.io/hanaa/devlog...

Happy #ScreenshotSaturday! While recording a video collage for my last post, I pulled off a rather fancy finish. It came with one of those rare audio spikes I’m trying to fix, so I left it out then. But here it is. #GameDev #IndieGame #Physics

Calling all #IndieDevs! It’s time to show off your amazing #indiegames! #ScreenshotSaturday 📽️Drop a clip or a screenshot of your game ❤️Give a like if you see something awesome 🔄Retweet to boost indie creativity! #gamedev #indiedev #gamedevelopment #gameart #videogames #gamer

IT IS A SATURDAY. Please furnish me with your games. The weirdest. The wildest. The most wonderful. 🖼️ Share a screen / vid 🔗 Drop your store page link …I’ll then share over the course of the day. Rejoice. #screenshotsaturday | #indiegames

Finally found the patience to start adjusting hit volume variables. Smoothing and normalizing are still #WIP, but it already sounds cleaner with fewer jarring spikes. Backed by a twisted beat from new #GameMusic experiments. #SoundDesign #IndieDev #TurnBasedThursday

In the future, instead of spamming identical thumbnails, I’ll keep all Itch devlogs in this thread.👇 Expect highlights, gifs, and occasional rambling (with some overlap from regular posts). #GameDev #Devlog #IndieGame

Another requested quality-of-life improvement: the game now detects if a roll drags on too long and lets the player brake. Probably more of a symptom cure than a root fix, but hopefully works for now. Automation will come later. #IndieDev #GameDesign #TurnBased #WIP

One big complaint has been not seeing around corners. So a peek option it is! Standard mouse has not enough buttons for all features, so I’m dropping my beloved multi-mouse support 🙁 (well, Win11 doesn't allow it and I was told it was a stupid idea anyway). #ScreenshotSaturday #IndieGame #GameDev

#GameDev weekly number 13: new version of the game, and some failed (but insightful) experiments. Seems that my TODO list is spiraling out of control. I have to learn organizing things. #Devlog #WIP #IndieDev mobilelast.itch.io/hanaa/devlog...

Busy day at the tourist information office! Check out my free demo on Steam! Reshares are much appreciated 😇 #gamedev #indiedev #madewithvisionaire

Experimented with a #TopDown view after some suggestions. It cuts forward visibility and makes terrain harder to read, but also clearly shows when you’re off track. Might be worth blending the best of both view types. #IndieGame #GameDev #GameDesign #IndieDev
