You all wanted it. Shame on you!
Catching it might give a steam achivement though… 😅

Polished the intro gap today. Might need to add a Steam achievement for hitting the butterfly!

I tried painting normals and made a short recap video! Could this work with more effort and experience, or is this technique just not ideal for rocks?

Hey #ScreenshotSaturday! Made a lot of progress this week, but all I can show you for now is... the new loading screen. =D

Here’s the first prototype of my mini game, but it’s not really fun yet. I think I might have to ditch the rim/peripheral view for spotting predators since it doesn’t feel intuitive. Any thoughts?

My daughter had to stay home today and immediately decided she’s working on my game now. 💘

Finished the texture for the mini-game Mainbird! I started off aiming for a European blue tit, but the colors just weren’t working for me. Sometimes the best results come from happy little detours. What do you think?

Haha, nice work around!

Oh boy… I’m almost finished with this texture, but it sure took me three times longer than I expected! The result is kind of mediocre—but it’ll have to do for now. #gamedev #indiedev

Rig complete! 🎉 After plenty of corrections and tweaks, it’s finally ready. Next up: unwrapping and texturing... #GameDev #IndieDev #3DModeling

Well, first rigging/deformation tests for the bird looking awesome 😅

Started to mockup the Mini-Bird-Game. I have some cool ideas for it, hope to keep the scope creep low.

Working Title: TINY TITMOUSE TRIALS

Uff, tackling the ultimate rigging challenge: wingfolding (game-performant edition!) 🚀

Bird now avoids crashing into trees without affecting player steering. Would you prefer this, or should it crash or steer away? #screenshotsaturday #GameDev #IndieDev #devlog

New bird implemented, but I’m already itching to update it. Guess I should tackle some collision logic first, though...

Small update today: thinking about expanding the prototype model a bit to test some new techniques, like feather weighting and adding some wiggle using shaders and vertexcolor.
