Everyone check out this other block game that has popped up recently. Looks really cool and I love the direction it's going in!

Accidentally broke my renderer yesterday, but it ended up producing some really cool glitch art. #gamedev #indiedev

Finally implemented better support for community translation in 0.9.5. People have been making translations for a while so I wanted to make sure they could see their hard work in the game. Still a lot of work to go before it is perfect, but it's a start :) #gamedev #indiedev

Incredible artwork of the forest spirit by Gen'ural in the Allumeria discord. Thanks so much! It's amazing to see people already making fan art for my janky little game :) #gamedev #indiedev #art

0.9 is out RIGHT NOW!!! This time around I didn't get to edit a trailer in time, but will hopefully make one soon :) unobtainablemelon.itch.io/allumeria #gamedev #indiedev #majorupdate

I'm on track to releasing Allumeria 0.9 on the weekend! This will be the last major version of the alpha available for free on itch, so don't miss your chance to grab it :) Will be moving to Steam playtesting for 0.10. Here's a sneak peek at all the new items! #gamedev #indiedev #solodev

Please check out this awesome video Dialko made about my game! It's a long video, but very entertaining. They do a great job at exploring the game's systems, and taking a calm approach to things. #gamedev #indiedev www.youtube.com/watch?v=Bd6l...

Been spending a lot of time on making a more robust structure system that allows me to save builds I make and then slot them together procedurally. This allows for much bigger, more complex and more detailed dungeons. This is an early version of the snow dungeon coming in 0.9 #gamedev #indiedev

Just upgraded the painting system in Allumeria so that applying paint to a light will also change the colour of the light emitted! Trying to squeeze as much creative freedom out of my game's systems as possible without filling up the inventory with tons of clutter. #gamedev #indiedev #lighting

New mechanic alert! Painting! 🖌️ 🎨Paint ANY block using the new paint roller item, or one of its special variants. Paint can be applied to any block with no limitations. The result can sometimes look wacky, but I want players to have the freedom to use this to their advantage. #gamedev #indiedev

I've been working on overhauling the fluid system in my game. Now all fluids are on a separate "layer" and can pass through any non-solid blocks. You can see that the water is flowing through the tall grass in this screenshot. #gamedev #indiedev

youtu.be/W1y-ZUDG0I4 Played your game and offered the best critique I could lol

Allumeria 0.8 Just Released! Come check it out, I would love to hear your feedback! :) #gamedev #indiedev #majorupdate #update #trailer unobtainablemelon.itch.io/allumeria

Going to be releasing Allumeria 0.8 in a few hours, here's a peek at the world I created for my 0.8 trailer I will be releasing alongside it! #gamedev #indiedev

Releasing 0.8 tomorrow! That means today I am doing a playthrough of the game to check the balance and find any bugs I didn't encounter while developing. #gamedev #indiedev

Preview of the new undergrowth biome coming in 0.8 (this weekend!) #gamedev #indiedev

Took a break from working on the rails to add basketballs and basketball hoops #gamedev #indiedev

I've been working on adding rails and minecarts to allumeria, here I am making sure that minecarts preserve their momentum when flying off of a track #gamedev #indiedev

Want to quit #minecraft but can't find an alternative? Wish you could find a game like #terraria, but in a 3d world? Tired of waiting for #hytale? Check out Allumeria! A new alpha build just dropped that adds a ton of new stuff, and it's free! unobtainablemelon.itch.io/allumeria #gamedev #gaming

Just pushed out another big update for Allumeria! This time I added the first boss fight! There's also new weapons, and new farming mechanics. Check out the trailer to see a quick recap of everything added! #gamedev #indiedev #majorupdate #gaming #terraria #hytale #minecraft youtu.be/pVxmlTsmaeU

Going to release 0.7 on saturday, I'm nearly finished with it :)

The skeleton had to stop and think about that one #gamedev #indiedev (Volume warning in case bluesky messes up the audio like usual)

Working on a boss fight! #gamedev #indiedev #blockbench #bossfight #battle

Working on farming mechanics in Allumeria right now. I really want some interesting systems for the player to experiment with. Here's a sprinkler item that waters crops within a 5x5 area. It triggers automatically, can be hooked up to wires and also looks cool :) #gamedev #indiedev #farming

Just released a fairly substantial update to my game, I'm so happy with it that I even made a video trailer to show off all its features! Download: unobtainablemelon.itch.io/allumeria video: www.youtube.com/watch?v=ASbe... #gamedev #indiedev #majorupdate #trailer #gaming #minecraft #terraria #update

Working on improving the building tools even more! Now you can pick the shape you want without the hammer, just hold R and select the shape, and any blocks you place will take that form! #gamedev #indiedev #opengl #opentk #graphics #voxels

Blocks can now apply effects to the player when they are stood on. Here is asphalt providing a 25% speed buff when walking on it as an example. #gamedev #indiedev #opengl #opentk #voxels

Working on a radial menu for the hammer to make it easier to choose different block shapes. Considering making it so you don't even need the hammer at all, and can choose what shape you want before placing. #gamedev #indiedev #opengl #opentk #voxels #minecraft #terraria

Back from my development hiatus and have fixed a bunch of long standing bugs with the game! Check it out: unobtainablemelon.itch.io/allumeria #gamedev #indiedev

Accidentally made a crazy self sustaining dart trap, the darts fall onto pressure plates which spawn in more darts. #gamedev #indiedev #opengl #opentk #graphics #voxels

working on the game again after a two week break, time to mess everything up! #gamedev #indiedev #opengl #opentk #graphics #voxels

I've just spent the last few days completely rewriting the save format for my game. Check out how fast it is to save/load now :D #gamedev #indiedev #opengl #opentk #voxels

Working on a basic wiring system so I can hook up traps and mechanical things in dungeons (which I dont think I have shown on bluesky yet) #gamedev #indiedev #opengl #opentk #graphics #voxels

Working on enemies with ranged attacks, here is a wizard shooting arrows for some reason! (Also trying to make it so that they lead their shots based on velocity to make it harder to dodge) #gamedev #indiedev #opengl #opentk #graphics #voxels

mushroom guy and evil skull #blockbench

I just released version 0.4 of Allumeria! It's the biggest update I've released yet, biomes, ranged combat, new enemies, fluid sim, commands, polish, fixes and more. unobtainablemelon.itch.io/allumeria/de... #indiedev #gamedev #solodev #majorupdate #itchio #update #voxels #gaming #indiegame #game

everyone check out this hog i made 🐗 #gamedev #indiedev #graphics #voxels #blockbench #gameart

Finally got around to abstracting the zombie more, so now I can add other enemy types! Here's a skeleton enemy, right now it just copies the zombie AI, but would like to try and make enemies more unique in the future. #gamedev #indiedev #opengl #opentk #graphics #voxels

added shurikens #gamedev #indiedev #opengl #opentk #graphics #voxels

one-shotting zombies from the top of a hill #gamedev #indiedev #opengl #opentk #graphics #voxels

Working on charged shots for bows that do extra damage, fly further and are higher accuracy at the expense of being much slower to shoot.

Got arrow projectiles in, was surprisingly difficult to make the arrow model point the way I wanted it to. Still a lot of work to go to make it feel more like firing a bow too #gamedev #indiedev #opengl #opentk #graphics #voxels

After a long day, the moon rises in the vast desert #gamedev #indiedev #opengl #opentk #graphics #voxels

silly little cacti #gamedev #indiedev #opengl #opentk #graphics #voxels

Working on adding biomes, here's a snow biome at night. Pine trees, ice and snow, bioluminescent algae #gamedev #indiedev #opengl #opentk #graphics #voxels

Some trippy visuals from my game while messing around with the randomtick system #gamedev #indiedev #opengl #opentk #graphics #voxels

Messing around with fluid simulation today. Right now the water is just full blocks, but in the future I will probably make it a lot more "flowy" and have levels of water. (in this video i am updating the floating water causing it to spill) #gamedev #indiedev #opengl #opentk #graphics #voxels

I updated my game to support OpenGL 2.1, but now it looks really weird. Anyone have any tips for how to fix this #gamedev #indiedev

Working on making underwater lighting better in 0.3.1 #gamedev #indiedev #opengl #opentk #graphics #voxels

I realised its possible to make one of the classic #minecraft designs, a launcher based on a bunch of mobs all crammed in a hole, pushing you all at once #gamedev #indiedev
