We tested without it for a while... but the throw action is back 🤖 💥 Use it to optimise your work, get out of boring tasks, or just chuck anything you can get your metal paws on really! #indiegame #gamedev #screenshotsaturday #acorporatemachine #godot

Goodbye pumpkins, hello peppermint! Getting into the holiday spirit and cooking up lots of fun stuff for our game. #gamedev #indiegame #godot #blender #acorporatemachine

Thanks to our tireless programmer we’re now official contributors to the Godot engine 🎉 Free and Open Source is what all the cool kids are doing, right? #godot #indiegame #gamedev #foss

This week: Continued work on the prototype, talks with potential partners, and making some serious progress on our Blender to Godot pipeline. Our 3d-artist is weirdly proud to let you know that the Godot-shot is only three draw calls 🤷 #gamedev #indiegame #blender #godot #screenshotsaturday

Okay, the quest is still janky and cobbled together, but our little vacuum can now torch their bloodsucking supervisor for a gold keycard in the prototype 🤖🧠🧛🔥 #screenshotsaturday #indiegame #gamedev #godot

The office building you’ll be cleaning in #acorporatemachine may be on top of a hell-mouth, but the rent is unbeatable.
Supernatural encounters here have some very natural explanations; hiring vampires for the night shift is just good business sense really🧛 #happyhalloween🎃 #indiegame #gamedev

Can we trust you with the precious china? Good Bot or Bad Bot, the choice is yours. #screenshotsaturday #gamedev #indiegame #wackywipstuff #acorporatemachine

We had a lovely drive up to Skövde, discussing all manner of game ideas, as the sun rose over the horizon. Now we’re here at #swedengameconference preparing to pitch A Corporate Machine #gamedev #indiegame

This coming Thursday we're heading to Skövde with @swedengamearena.bsky.social to pitch A Corporate Machine in front of a live audience. Exciting and frightening in equal amounts! We'll even bring an incredibly rough playable to try out 😱

So soft … So comfortable #screenshotsaturday #indiegame #gamedev #indiedev #godot #acorporatemachine

We’re self-funding early dev by working part time. Reliable FOSS-tools like Blender and Godot are invaluable for small cross-disciplinary teams. We gladly use personal funds to support these projects. If you’re a FOSS-user, 🙏 donate if you can #blender #godot #gamedev #indiedev #indiegames #foss

We conducted our first live user tests this weekend. The entire team was on site. More important than a well prepared build, a good testing environment and knowing what sort of data you're after is of course what sort of snacks you offer. What snack do you like when playing?

Such a good dog! You can’t pet him just yet, but at least you can take him for a walk and give him a treat #indiegame #gamedev #screenshotsaturday #godot #acorporatemachine #prototype #wackywipstuff

When working on the art-style for A Corporate Machine we’re keeping it separate from the prototype.

Since we’re only working part time on A Corporate Machine, we missed the chance to commemorate last weekend's important celebrations together! 😢 #gamedev #blender #indiegame #acorporatemachine

Messy humans leaving their chairs everywhere

In the prototype, we want to be able to try lots of things. And if a play-test shows something we didn’t plan for (has that ever happened?!) we want to be able to change things quickly, not waste time polishing stuff that belongs in the bin. 2/3

When developing the art-style for A Corporate Machine we’re keeping it out of the prototype. It gives us room to explore the look and feel in a smaller scope, and lets us find a solid pipeline before we go full hog with production. 1/3
