"SHELLSTORM leans into deep simulation rather than superficial abstraction. The result is a complex, interwoven possibility space that rewards patience, careful observation, and freedom of choice"

No post-processing - just careful attention to optimizing meshes, #textures, lights, and ambient occlusion.

Can you guess what happens when the player steps into the ancient #temple?

We are constructing a monolithic temple for Blade & Bloodfall. Read more about the project at: www.hypermadinteractive.com

Rather than using wall textures, we’re placing every massive 3D stone by hand to give a sense of weight.

Before & After of the Fight or Flight portrait #art.

The old art already had a 30% click-through rate on #Steam. But we wanted the new one to showcase the genre of the #indiegame more clearly.

Was the update worth it? Please let us know in the comments!

Imagine if JRR Tolkien had a businessman making decisions on how to write his books - sounds like a bad idea right? But in game production, we have come to accept it as normal. Businessmen have an important role in game production - but they should not be in charge of creative endeavours. #gamedev
