Game Developer/Programmer/Composer. Making Pirate RPG, A Short Odyssey (He/Him) 🇨🇦 I make games with my own engine Dev streams on YouTube:
Exactly one year later the frogs have returned. GP-Direct 2026 will be coming tomorrow! Tune in to the GP YouTube channel to see cool games and engines that are built without Unity, Unreal or Godot! www.youtube.com/@graphicspro... #graphicsprogramming #indiegamedev #gpdirect #gamedev
Really happy the way the new mapping system is coming along in ASO, can't wait to see my playtesters get their hands on it. #gamedev #indiegamedev
You know, this is probably a niche opinion, but I actually enjoy the process of UV unwrapping, trying to max out my texture space is a fun challenge. and faces always look funny in UV space... #indiegamedev #blender3d
Made a cat walk cycle for ASO, just starting to get the hang of animating the 4 legged ones. #blender3d #indiegamedev #gamedev
My little ship is coming together after many hours of modelling, added some nice bronze cannons for the gun deck. #indiegamedev #gamedev #blender3d
It's not perfect since point lights don't cast shadows in my engine, but it looks like I have a torch! #indiegamedev #gamedev
Working on the caves a bit, the entrances look a bit more natural now I think #indiegamedev #gamedev
Yes I did do the whole stream while dressed as a pirate... #gamedev #halloween #indigamedev
My Pirate themed RPG: A Short Odyssey got into it's first Steam Event. Come check out the Summer Postcard Event on Steam from today till Sept 29. And don't forget to wishlist the game! #majorupdate #indiegamedev #gamedev #summer #summergaming store.steampowered.com/curator/3428...
Sometimes I scroll through steam categories to see where my game shows up (this is under "pirates"), I thought it was funny to see @eternalskiestcg.bsky.social basically right above my game A Short Odyssey in the list. #indiegamedev #steam #gamedev
My game A Short Odyssey, now was an official Discord Server Join with the link below for updates, playtest opportunities or just to hang out! discord.gg/Jm6WADgV #indiegamedev #gamedev
A little sneak peak for my segment in the upcoming #GP-Direct showcase #indiegamedev #graphics #gamedev
Really happy that we were *not only* able model the cannon live on stream but actually rig up the angelscript code to get it to fire! #indiegamedev #gamedev
Now we're really cooking! no joke, I just added cooking to my pirate RPG, A Short Odyssey #indiegamedev #gamedev #cooking
We have cats now on the island. #ashortodyssey #gamedev #indiegamedev
Been working on this jungle for a while, hopefully I got it dense enough, it was a challenge to keep everything over 120fps on my modest graphics card (2060 super). But with alot of modelling rework I managed. #indiegamedev #ashortodyssey #graphicsprogramming
Reworking some of the jungle plant generation #indiegamedev #ashortodyssey
Disturbing the local wildlife in A Short Odyssey. #screenshotsaturday #indiegamedev #gamedev
It's a nice day to sit out in the sun and do some learnin' #gamedev #indiegamev
Just sharing a nice vista from my game A Short Odyssey. Sometimes I like to just place little plants whenever I can't find anything else to do. #gamedev #indiegamedev #ashortodyssey
Canadians don't forget to vote today! I cast my ballot earlier and it only took me 5 minutes. Also I don't think I need to say it on this platform but please *don't* vote conservative lol
Doing some work on realtime GI, not sure this is gonna make it into the game, but its fun #indiegamedev #graphicsprogramming
Woo, finally got the localization system for my engine working. So I'm messing around with the game in French! The translation is not final, but feel free to correct me anyways! #gamedev #indiegamedev
Wow I think my leaves look alot better with a little bit of translucency. #indiegamedev
Did some more work on my waterfalls. Hopefully this is an improvement? #gamedev #indiegamedev
