There’s beauty in nature, it’s motivating.

Revisiting my Colony Builder game today as a refresher and break from my other project. Experimented with adding interactive sand and fluids to it, super cool! I’ll have a video of that this weekend.

Ever break a project so bad it just might be easier to just trash it and start again. :le sigh:

Been enamored with this new story idea I’ve been playing with. The brain reset has been invaluable.

Veins of Europa (Pending Title)

Just crossed the 14k word mark and think it’s something worth continuing with how much fun I’m having with it!

I think I’m literally 4 different people with each their own sub hobbies. 😅

Currently in my #writer phase. Got absorbed #writing story for my survival #horror game and apparently the game will come with its own #Novella now.

Sample in DevLog below (Disturbing content)⚠️ :

Don’t lack focus, it just moves. 😅

Work on story for my game? I did!

Did I get distracted and develop a solar system expanding story with 5 factions and 4 fantastical antagonists with an overarching oppression that may or may not make them work together? Also, yes! #ADHD #IndieGameDev

Are you really an #IndieGameDev if you don’t add a new system in that breaks your other systems then have to go reconfigure the system again to play nice with other systems? No? K, just checking.

Volume work, random scares, nuanced details!

When thinking, let's do that, sometimes we think it'll be easier than it is. 😅

Check out another DevLog on my #YouTube!

Today focused mainly on lighting and fine tuning camera angles.

Narrated DevLogs?

Is this a thing I should bother doing? Not sure the interest level, but might be something!

75 cameras (so far!) and the crypt/path connection is complete!

Have some lighting and fine tuning to do on angles, but almost to the mansion!

Only able to get more story bits done this weekend, otherwise super busy. Back at it though!

Short day, work calls sadly. Was able to get some camera placements, pathway collision, level changes, and some lighting adjustments.

New zone, who 'dis?

Path to the mansion continues with a spectacle of ruined buildings and dead foliage. Almost to the entrance of Threnody's where the real puzzles begin.
