I make things and no one has yet been able to stop me.
Me: "Right, let's work on the g..."

Brain: "HEY! I'VE SUDDENLY REMEMBERED A SONG I'VE NOT HEARD IN 20 YEARS!"

*Makes coffee vending machine asset for his game.*

*Spends an hour adding details like buttons and a coin mechanism and nozzles.*

*Remembers that this coffee machine is only visible through an old, low rez CCTV camera*

*Deletes all the details the player will never see for performance.*

If I was ever going to suggest something is that if you're working on a big creative thing, work on a small thing on the side. Preferably something out of your comfort zone were you have to learn something new. Not only is it a break from big thing but you get ideas and new skill for big thing.

I sure do love following tutorials and it not working. Love that.

That and falling asleep in the middle of them and having to rewatch them

Two pieces of middleware was to deal with Unity's god awful animation system....

I'm a grown adult.

So to tide you over, here's a small asset I worked on today. It's small but cute!

Some news on my game(s) now that I'm back from break. I was given a very generous donation over the holiday and I've invested that money into some Unity middleware to make life a little easier and better. Which means I've been learning those which doesn’t make very good screenshots.

Do you know what the BEST thing about #gamedev is? Spending hours coding something then learning that there's already has a two click solution in the engine!

CAN'T GET ENOUGH OF THAT!

GOD DAMMIT! I managed to get all the way to Christmas day without hearing Wham, only to fall at the finish line!

Bought all my Christmas presents over a month ago.

Got around to wrapping them now, as is tradition.

Hey got a few new follows so here's a "Hi." I'm mostly going to be sticking to my game making stuff here. Trying to keep my doom-scrolling to a minimum, so I'll only post here from time to time.

Right now in my holiday I'll mostly be teaching myself to use some middleware so I won't post too much.

Right, I've really got to knuckle down and deal with Unity's notoriously bad UI system and make menus for my game...

Or I could just make fun little gribblies for the wall in Blender and pretend I'm progressing...

Hehe! Greeble is such a fun word...

Hi #gamedev ! Just a little reminder:

FFS! USE VERSION CONTROL!

After one big hot key fat finger I didn't notice resulted in 20 minutes of lost work instead of 3 hours!
December 13, 2025 at 5:25 PM
Here it is again in game with its stylised shader. A lot of #gamedev is convincing yourself you're progressing. I mean I should be working on the in game menu but that's BOOOOOOORING!
December 10, 2025 at 10:24 PM
Sorry I haven't been posting much. I've been mostly learning stuff on the game making front and that's not very interesting. But I've decided to add little reward items to throw around. If only as an excuse to fire up Blender. Here's one of them.

Ever wonder why your choices don't matter in a "your choices matter" game? Well it's because gets complicated. FAST! Even with dedicated non-linier story writing tools. Tho I highly recommend it as it's a lot of fun making a "choose your own adventure" book!
