🍬🎃SUGAR GHOULS IS OUT🎃🍬

I emerge from underground to bring you a new Halloween platformer I've been working on non-stop for the last 2 weeks. It's got pumpkins, it's got goblins, but most importantly, it has GHOST KID.

So grab some candy, a controller, and have fun~

I added bouncy physics to certain locations in my game about exploring a living planet. Its way more fun then I expected it to be

I'm finally getting into designing the environments for Coagulation Station: Fleshfall, and I'm really liking this area is turning out. Let me know you thoughts so far

I might have made the wrench a little too strong...

I'm working on some attack animations for the wrench in my upcoming game Coagulation Station: Fleshfall. I find myself randomly smacking stuff for fun lol

Working on some meat textures for Coagulation Station 2. I imagine it's very humid down here...

Happy #piday everyone! Here's a shot of the water in my 90s CGI game I've been making in #UnrealEngine for the past little while. The water at least uses #pi in it's math!

Here's a trippy filter I made while experimenting with Color LUTs in #UnrealEngine I was originally trying to match the color depth of some actual 90s renders, but I got a little carried away with what I could do lol

Here's a timelapse of the pulsating effects I've been working on for the sequel of sorts to my horror game Coagulation Station. I'm really liking how gross it's looking so far

I modeled some weird 90s looking Donkey Kong-eque trees to go into the scene. It's some really basic stuff, but it's been a fun side project to work on. All of this is done in #UnrealEngine 5 btw

I've spent all morning tinkering around in #UnrealEngine trying to capture that old 80's-90's #cgi look. As a kid, I always was fascinated by those pre-rendered visuals, so I thought making a real time game in that style would be a lot of fun!

Hey everyone! Here's a cute little scene I made in my Frog Game to celebrate. I hope you all have a great Valentine's Day!

I'm working on a cheap light to use in my #UnrealEngine games going forward. Each is rendered with a special billboard material. I've been able to get over 2,000 overlapping lights in this scene while maintaining 120fps (normal point lights gave me <40fps) #gamedev #indiedev #indiegamedev #solodev
