Here's an early look at Never After, our atmospheric side-scrolling psychological horror game. This build is still very much a work in progress but features original player character by our incredible artist, Kurai! #gamedev #indiegame #screenshotsaturday #indiedev

Live on Twitch streaming Akiiwan: a survival adventure w/a talking campfire as your guide. Explore, craft, fish, & hunt during the day, & ask the fire 3 questions each night. Ask wisely: winter isn't the only surprise! Thanks to Keymailer! twitch.tv/kaylynx #akiiwansurvival #keymailer #twitch

Love seeing the lampposts finally hit the environment in Never After. Balancing that 2.5D glow against the pitch black has been a challenge, but I love how it is coming out so far. Still need to adjust the general environment lighting! #Gamedev #IndieDev #LevelDesign #GameDesign #Unity2D

I’m focusing on the "pools of light" effect, making sure each lamppost asset has its own radius while leaving plenty of dark space in between. #GameDesign #IndieGameDev #LevelDesign #LightingDesign #Unity2D #UnrealEngine #NeverAfterGame #SpeedBuild
Watch me turn this static mist asset into animated fog! #gamedev #indiedev #gamedevelopment #indiegame #devlog #behindthescenes #gamedesign #psychologicalhorror #indiegames #unity2d
Playing with lighting and colors to find the perfect vibe 👌 #horror #creepy #unsettling #liminalspace #indiegame #gamedev #devlog #fyp
#ScreenshotSaturday | Never After | It starts here. One lamp. One path. A dark park filled with memories. Will you explore it? #indiegame #gamedev #indiedev #psychologicalhorror #gaming #indiegames #liminalspace #darkaesthetic
Next Friday: I'll be doing a charity stream for Gamers for Giving hosted by Gamers Outreach! They provide portable game kiosks - called GO Karts - specifically for hospitals for kids! Check them out: gamersoutreach.org Donate on April 3 to get some of these on-stream incentives!
A quick little speed build of the first 'draft' of the starting zone in Never After! @nodninstudios.bsky.social #indiegamedev #devlog #gamedev #indiegame #unity2d
This came up on my fb memories from when I submitted Calliope for my master thesis. Yeah the same one I have published. Makes me think he didn't actually read it or had very low expectations. Considering my experience there, maybe both. Oh well. Its a degree. And its published. That was a win then.
