I’ve spent the last few days putting shadows into the renderer. They definitely make scenes look a lot less flat and 2D. 👌 #gamedev | #indiedev | #solodev | #gameengine

I’ve been working hard adding combat to my game engine. It’s now possible to add status effects to attacks, oh and you can die in the game now!

I’ve been working on combat response today. Here’s the hero getting knocked about a bit.

A demo using the new behaviour system in the game editor. You can build “brains” and assign them to NPCs. They will use the brains to react to you in the game world.

You can now assign default behaviours to NPCs in my game engine. These behaviours allow NPCs to react to the player (and anything else in the world) in a highly customisable way 👌 #GameDev #SoloDev #IndieDev #IndieGame #GameEngine #devlog

No #GameDev today as it’s a public holiday here in the UK. Experiencing the great outdoors instead! #trains #railway #EskValley #Whitby

NPCs can now ride the monorail 🚝 around the world when they want to travel to/from work, for example. My goal is for the NPCs to be able to travel the world just like the player can. I’m hoping that it makes the world feel more alive! #GameDev #SoloDev #IndieDev #IndieGame

Today I got implemented fast travel using the game’s monorail 🚝 system. It made use of a multi-choice menu which is a brand new engine UI feature. 👌

A day off #gamedev today. Quality family time in our local park! Back to the #coding tomorrow. Working on more UI for the monorail 🚝. Perhaps extend the UI system so I can pop up smaller multi choice menus that don’t pause the game 🤘 #SoloDev #IndieDev #IndieGame

You can now finally catch the monorail 🚝 in the new sci-fi gardening game I’m developing! There’s no artwork yet but the system is there! #Chuffed #GameDev #SoloDev #IndieDev #IndieGame #GameEngine

I can now place monorail 🚝 stations in the world using the game editor. I extended the trigger system. Now I can give triggers a “kind”. This could be extended further by adding different kinds as the game evolves. 👌

Progress on the monorail 🚝 system in my sci-fi gardening game today! Just systems, no visuals (yet) 😋

Sven (The Driod 🟩) can use his mining laser (currently imaginary) to break apart rocks and hoover up iron-ore for crafting.
None of it has real art assets yet but the system works!
