We’re experimenting with different ways for our little vacuum cleaner robot to interact with the office workers. Unionize today for table tennis breaks!

The environment in our game, A Corporate Machine, is inspired by tech and interior decoration from the 70s to the 90s. But with more advanced capabilities like wireless communication protocols and one heck of a smart robot vacuum cleaner. #indiegame #gamedev #screenshotsaturday #blender #godot

None can question Omega Global's dedication to the environment, not with such an efficient incenerator installed!

In A Corporate Machine you play as Sanitron TC-84, the world's most overqualified robot vacuum cleaner.
Unseen and underappreciated, but also free to shake things up!

I've been running an indie games studio for 15 years now, and it felt like a good time to boil down what I've learned into 4 pieces of advice:

I hope it's of use, not least because goddamn I forgot how long blog posts take to write.

Some progression on the look-development environment for A Corporate Machine. Lots of pipeline work done to make asset creation in #blender easier and exporting to #godot smoother #screenshotsaturday #indiegame #gamedev

We had a fun time showing off A Corporate Machine at a #gamedev pub, hosted by @swedengamearena.bsky.social. It’s an uncontrolled environment, and getting lots of hands on it when it’s early and rough really lets you see what the biggest hurdles are for players to get in to the loop. #Indeigame

This week: Continued work on the prototype, talks with potential partners, and making some serious progress on our Blender to Godot pipeline. Our 3d-artist is weirdly proud to let you know that the Godot-shot is only three draw calls 🤷 #gamedev #indiegame #blender #godot #screenshotsaturday

Okay, the quest is still janky and cobbled together, but our little vacuum can now torch their bloodsucking supervisor for a gold keycard in the prototype 🤖🧠🧛🔥 #screenshotsaturday #indiegame #gamedev #godot

We conducted our first live user tests this weekend. The entire team was on site. More important than a well prepared build, a good testing environment and knowing what sort of data you're after is of course what sort of snacks you offer. What snack do you like when playing?

When developing the art-style for A Corporate Machine we’re keeping it out of the prototype. It gives us room to explore the look and feel in a smaller scope, and lets us find a solid pipeline before we go full hog with production. 1/3
