Finally implemented a respawn system, so the player gets respawned when they fall of the edge, provided they still have some health left This will make gamedev testing a bit easier :-) #godot #gamedev #indiedev

Can't argue with science. First time I tried anything with claws or feathers, so this was educational and fun to draw, thank you for sharing!

Work in progress sketches

And I like drawing other peoples characters. Thank you for sharing, this has been fun to draw

22nd game, Diggergun Mining/lifesim game that is a neat example mechanics reinforcing an overall vibe The short days, the looming debt, depleting energy resource, arbitrary raising of quotas, the unpredictability of your mine haul Makes you always rush and worry like an overworked employee

Made a big change to the floor and background, now any action the player takes causes the floor bits to light up and expand based on what goes across them I like it :-) #gamedev #indiedev #godot #indiegame

Made a quick mockup of what would happen if I turned the planned character portrait into interlocking shards I do like how it looks, but it needs more detail so people know what they are looking at. Maybe smaller shards and more color variation? #art #gamedev #screenshotsaturday #godot #indiedev

21st game, Blue Wednesday As an indie dev with a day job, this story about making your art your job, and how audience reception impacts your self-esteem, and a scoop of imposter syndrome, it all spoke to me on a spiritual level Also, immaculate jazz vibes. Recommended for all you creative people

Worked on wall destruction The debris shards now actually constitute the entire wall, and there is slight delay as a spiderweb of fracture lines travel from point of impact through the wall, before exploding outward Gives the destruction a bit more weight #gamedev #indiedev #godot #indiegame

Added sparks and scratches on the floor whenever you kick a box, trying to make it feel more weighty I kind of like being able to walk back and seeing the path your carnage took #gamedev #indiedev #godot

20th game, Shotgun Cop Man Using your weapons for attacks and recoil for movement seemed like it would require a level of twitch response that I'm not capable of But this game is fairly forgiving, the lvls short and does not penalize you for not hitting bonus objectives Highly recommended

Hell yeah

Some of the work in progress sketches

Version 3 of the knight PC. Considering I'm only using this for a dialogue box, I'm trying to get an appealing pose towards the right Need to work on perspective more, feels like they should be turned more, and hunched slightly, as if ready to pounce #gamedev #sketch #ocsky #art

I added these topdown parallax sprites that move based on the distance to the player, giving this fake depth to the walls, boxes and glass #gamedev #indiedev #godot

If you need pathfinding, but the collision objects are irregular shapes that don't fit around an A* grid, consider using Rapidly exploring random trees (RTT) The paths are not the theoretical shortest, but they are interesting Link to a gdscript version in comment #godot #code #algorithm #gamedev

19th game of 2026, Boneraiser Minions I enjoy summoning a horde of undead to fight a horde of other things and this was a very good time Kind of wish I could make a truly massive horde of weaker units instead of upgrading a smaller number to more elite versions Still a very strong recommend

Spend time adding some juice to the enemy attacks, the impacts and deaths and making sure multiple enemies can chase you at the same time Took some extra effort to make the pathfinding modular, so later implementations for other enemies should be straightforward #gamedev #indiedev #godot

Working on the enemy punch attack. I might still be slightly off on the knockback effect on the player #screenshotsaturday #gamedev #indiedev #godot

If you need to simulate cloth/line, you can use Verlet integration, which models interconnected points that influence the movement of their neighbors It is a simple and lightweight physics algo, less than 100 lines of code, link to a gdscript version in comment #godot #code #algorithm #gamedev

I'm going through the monster sections of the first edition DnD, I'm enamored with these sketches I absolutely believe that a disheveled wandering adventurer would draw these on a napkin in a tavern to warn others I should use vague sketches from scared villagers in my campaign #DnD #art

18th game, Carrion This game has some excellent movement mechanics, sneaking through vents and swinging around as a mass of meat, teeth and tentacles just feels good The puzzles are a bit basic and I got lost a couple of times, but it was a cathartic time when you get to be the monster

Do you remember Bastion? Because I remember Bastion #screenshotsaturday #gamedev #solodev #godot

I made a python script to take a plane floor tile, and adds gradient, pockmarks and noise to it to make it look less uniform There is something there I feel, but not quite appealing. Making a good visual style is kind of important, but also my weakest skill #gamedev #godot #indiedev

If you have ever wondered what a T-SNE of all sounds in @kenney.nl 's asset pack using VGGish embeddings looks like, here it is The idea is that similar sounds are close together, if you turn sound on, you can hear this Trying to get an auto sorting algo going for all my unsorted #gamedev assets

Been consolidating all of the game assets I've bought on itch/humble and art references saved on pinterest/bluesky/local in a single place, with the intention of tagging them to make search easier I just finished my harvest and I'm rethinking the whole 'manually tag everything' approach #gamedev

There is some political turmoil in the local government of Tiel, a city here in NL So I drew Flipje becoming mayor. He is a Dutch comic book character based in Tiel, who is a walking raspberry boy and mascot of the city #sketch #art

Made 4 versions of 'find random location in a circle' Just doing center + random_length * random_angle biases towards many points close to center, so using donut, normal distribution and bias towards outer radius can help spread randomness out to desired location #code #godot #algorithm #gamedev

17th game, mosa lina Random physics lvl, random tools, one shot, dying makes you go to next lvl First puzzle game I played where the answer to a puzzle can be 'this is impossible with current tools, just jump of the ledge' It is unique, very odd and strangely compelling
