Normal inventories are boring, so we made a living one, that catches objects and fears fire 🔥

Creative problems, require creative solutions 😌

Managed to get my hands on the new DLSS 5 👀

What do you think?

I noticed (almost) nothing is stopping me from adding 10.000 Cheese into a single chest.

What could I try to spawn 10k of next?

Our living inventory can catch objects. Because the game is built on systems. This still works even when it is stuck on a turtle...

I love unintentional features that just work.

#gamedev #SteamGame #indiedev #rootboundgame

What monsters would we be if you couldn't. Of course you can 😌

Normal inventories are boring. So we made one that is alive. Do you think the game should require you to loot, to keep it happy?

I made a little VFX breakdown. These are just a bit over 1000 particles.

Do you think anything is missing?

Our dynamic fires only consists of two effects. This is how I made one of them.

Another showcase of a VFX I made with #unity a while ago but never showed off properly.

Does it feel dangerous or calming?

#gamedev #IndieGameDev #vfx

That is true. We try to create a game with many interlocking feature, to create as much opportunities for emergent gameplay as possible. Sometime it works better than others though.

Another little showcase of our dynamic fire system.

Is it too much, that the player can catch, and spread the fire too?

I think it also may be the vastly better graphics, compared to the first alpha version.

A little showcase of one of our first enemies. Inspired by Mario kart of all games 😅

A little showcase of how our Boneblins throw stuff at you (and even dabble in a little arson 👀)

#gamedev #rootboundgame #indiedev #PCGaming

Just a little showcase of how you can now put enemies in your inventory!

(And offer them, so the Allsàl grants you more daylight)

#gamedev #indiedev #rootboundgame

Just a little fighting scene against our version of the classical "Splitting RPG Slime"

First draft vs. Finished trailer...

Please don't judge my art skills too much 😅 they did their best 🫣

#gamedev #indiedev #rootboundgame #Trailer

Does this feel unfair?
I mean... It's kinda my own fault 🤷

Northern lights over our balconies in Germany? The Allsàl seems to be watching over our development. This must be a sign ✨

Who needs AI concept art when you have MS Paint skills like this? Trust the process (and the spaghetti nodes)! 🍝✨

We added a fire propagation system inspired by Far Cry 2... and things got out of hand fast. 😅

Made a "ghost line" VFX I'm incredibly proud of. It's supposed to always show the player which torch they're connected to. Does it do its job?

I had time today to make some Pixel art animations again 🥳
It's supposed to be a daytime clock that gets locked or unlocked.
Animating the smoke/fire took a while...
