Starting up my next proper project soon: Sunbreak!

It’ll be part of my uni work but I plan on expanding it into a longer more detailed game.

I’m absolutely in love with the world I’ve made for this project and can’t wait to make it playable :D

Wish there was a way to become a game designer without the ritual combat but with the state of the industry it is what it is 😔

My week 4 project!! Mainly focused on learning how splines and arrays work in unreal blueprints, some quite weird stuff with getting references to objects while iterating through arrays while adding object pooling but it’s fineeee.

:D

It’s not Halloween anymore but the goblins and demons keep speaking to me 😭

I will endure and actually finish all the projects I set out to before starting new ones, yep, 100%, definitely.

It’s such a fun idea though and I can’t wait to see what it’ll be like in engine :)

Happy Halloween!!

Hope everyone had a good evening and that everyone’s pets are ok considering how many fireworks there’s been 💛

2 weeks into my first year studying game design at uni and I’m loving it.
We have to use Unreal so it’s been a hell of a learning curve switching over but exploring some of the tools it has to offer has been very fun.
Lecturers are amazing and I could listen to them talk for days.

Went to London with a friend to see Hades Town last week and ABSOLUTELY LOVED IT! Incredibly dynamic with so many interesting set pieces and Hermes was amazing, the first photo isn’t mine but shows the same cast as the show I saw, drinks were also great! 12/10 would definitely recommend seeing it :D

SILKSONG NOW!
EEEE, I’m so excited to begin playing this game. The main menu music is just <3333
I apologise to my sleep schedule for the horrors it’s about to witness.

The results are in! honestly did better than I thought i would!!! Audio being low was expected but I’m surprised that over a 1000 other games had worse audio than my game with no audio lol. This was a great experience and I can’t wait until next year! :D

I’ll do a little post jam overview here:

Halfway through the GMTK game jam!!
Things are not going as planned!

Is it really a game jam if you don’t say “what?! How have I only got this much done”
I’m happy with my progress so far though hopefully I keep this pace up :D

Good luck everyone! @gamemakerstoolkit.com #godot #gmtk2025 #gamejam

Hi hi, congrats on 2k!!! I’m Robin, I’m very much still learning how to ‘art’ but I absolutely adore pixel art. Hope to eventually get good at it but I’ve been enjoying the process of learning regardless :D

Did a bit of colouring in and pixel art during Monomi Park’s discord pride event! Was a lovely time and very relaxing just chatting with people. The slime rancher community is incredible, thank you to the server admins for organising the event<3

It also fits my laptop perfectly!!! This was the one thing I was worried about so I’m glad I can use this as an actual bag in future.
June 9, 2025 at 11:57 PM
Ecstatic right now
I ordered this bag by @knock-thrice.bsky.social in November last year and have been waiting ever since for it to arrive. It’s even better than I expected and I love all the patches. So happy to have my own little part of @rustyquill.com ‘s The Magnus Protocol. Love it :D

Realised I never shown this off here but 3 years ago a friend crocheted me a puddle slime and they’ve been on my desk as my little coding companion ever since. 20/10 would recommend a little guy to live on your desk, so many of my projects would have taken way longer without them. <3 #slimerancher
