I discuss our different experiments for making sure Harry is always visible when he walks behind a wall.

Not all Zombies dress the same in Halloween Harry. I discuss our random textures for enemies.

My first game, Chilly Willy, was published in 1984 - the same year as King's Quest, Karetaka, Boulderdash, Lode Runner, Marble Madness, Knight Lore, Sabre Wulf and Jet Set Willy! #IndieDev #IndieGames #GameDev #DevLog

The original Halloween Harry flamethrower is back in the game! You can only walk while using it but it packs a punch.

I'm prototyping retracting platforms using a CSGBox3D. The current level I'm blocking out has a lot of vertical space so the goal is to make climbing walls interesting.
