So as off right now the Falconeer is 50% off to celebrate its release. And here's a #howitstarted shot by shot comparison of how the game evolved with the Remaster.

If you enjoyed the game, now is no better time than to leave a review on steam and support!

It's not dazzle paint, but it's kinda glam

The 28th of this month is the lizard day for those unaware

This year all I want is to get my hands on the Ship Shape demo (when its ready)

Since they dont have a patreon or anything, maybe go support Tomas' ongoing work by purchasing Bulwark. it's a funky lite - citybuilder/strategy/adventure game
Alright I am still a child... making model boats..

So got an hour on the frame. Downloading games takes forever so mostly the VR home

SteamOS on the frame is slick as hell. Can we please have this level of slick in regular steam please.

It's kinda interesting to play flat games on Frame. It is a big draw.

Trailer got done.. but of a crash course in Resolve, but whatever gets a trailer out in a day ... is pretty good.,

(I have been coding a custom boat showcase in-game for 4 days to prep this trailer ..lol)

The Baleful Leviathan my name generator says. to me it's the "HMS know your audience"

in other words I added sponsons and double batteries...

Getting high off my own supply. I will likely be modelling nautical props for a long long time, so I better enjoy it. ;)

you know what.. If you wanna be an artist and use AI gen. Good for you.. you go do that.

Perhaps one day you will make something amazing with AI, I don't exclude the possibility.

But you wanna do so with minimal effort.... that's not gonna work.. that's just being a poser, not an artist.

I mean there's something to be said for not going for the next shiny thing and building up on the foundations you've built as a #gamedev over many years.

Without that Falconeer Remaster I wouldn't have had this world to place this ship designer in and it would have felt smaller in so many ways..

@benedictnichols.bsky.social has made another haunting composition for the demo...

aah our daily reminder has arrived that Donald Trump and his coterie are truly a shitstain on history..

folk testing the app ... made a shark..
February 6, 2026 at 4:18 PM
it's looking shipshape.
February 5, 2026 at 6:11 PM
Finally got the ships floating in-world.. taking your creation to a floating dynamic ship. fully lit and placed at scale on the ursee.

Alright added the option to tilt rails, and it somehow works great, adding a spindly quality to the new busier decks. With rudders and lifeboats things take on a very tangible quality.

So would #indiedevs use such a tool/toy to create boats for their own games, If I'd offer the license to do so?
February 2, 2026 at 8:05 PM
ALright added rudders, lifeboats and the general busywork of a ship's deck is now looking all there..
February 2, 2026 at 3:36 PM
So a Lateen with a Gaf and small Bermuda rigged set atop. We're getting nautical nerdy now...
