Indie Game Dev
Been making free, micro games on & off for ~10 years. The current plan is to try and make something bigger.

Some short games (~15 mins) I've made in the past couple of years that you could play right now in browser if you so desired. Check them out at machinescreen.itch.io #gamedev

Well it took a while to work out how to do this but I've just finished this animatable #lowpoly hospital curtain in #blender. Very useful exercise as I learnt a lot about stuff I've never touched before - like Hooks and Drivers. #gamedev

Hey #PitchYaGame!
I'm making an atmospheric 3d platformer where you're a robot pole-jumping through an underground complex!

🏃- Unique staff-based movement
🏚- Huge abandoned megastructure
🎞- Wordless story to piece together

The game comes out the 10th of November!

It's been sorely tempting to give up on game dev recently. I really struggle to sustain effort on longer-term projects that aren't short jam games and I often feel overwhelmed trying to do everything. Plus chronic health issues have reared their head again in the last fortnight which is not helping.

Finally found a way forward for the game I've been chipping away at for a while. I'd been worried it was very samey and potentially boring but I'm much happier with the plan for the overall structure now. #gamedev #indiedev #horrorgame #retrogame #ps1

Why are the majority of UK politicians so insistent on letting Israelis get away with things we wouldn't let anyone else get away with?! Independent bodies have made operational decisions about the Aston Villa match in light of Amsterdam - just leave it alone.

Finding some odd behaviour with LightmapGI in #Godot. I pre-generated a second UV map for this plane in Blender with a super low resolution of 6x6. For some reason Godot is moving the luxels so they no longer align with the edges and also it generated a tonne of unnecessary extra lightmap data...

Soon, something will be born.

ULTRASOUND: a 3D sci-fi horror point&click

• Use an ultrasound to diagnose and do surgery on a gruesome infection spreading aboard a space freighter

• Craft meds/tools to fix ship systems before you collide with a star

• Embrace cosmic flesh

No AI.

this from my piece on charlie kirk is probably the most important takeaway if you want to know why bad faith, right-wing voices in media are treated as just another set of peers

Giving every person the opportunity to have their own radio show has really messed things up hasn't it?
