I’m back at #breakoutcon again this year. I’ll be running my game Hope Inhumanity as well as the old classic horror RPG, Dread.

We finally have a real logo for our upcoming game Wheat and Wrath!

I love this new character.

A feature of Wheat and Wrath will be trading for technology, reflecting the way tech and knowledge was historically often transmitted through trade networks. There are no domesticated animals here so the straw people have to do the pulling. #3dcharacter #indiegamedev #ue5 #unrealengine

I’ve been having a little fun setting up a Photo Booth in unreal engine and playing with lighting and materials to take snapshots of the characters in my game.

I'm going to be heading to @breakoutcon.bsky.social again next year. I'll be running my game Hope Inhumanity, and also Dread, because we can't forget the classics.

If you’re going to #paxunplugged check out the Games on Demand area. Along with other great #ttrpg games there @pg-yyz.bsky.social will be running his game Ringmaster and also my old survival card-based RPG Hope Inhumanity.

I’m getting to the fun stuff in my game. I’m building a divine favor system. Temples, festivals and sacrifices impact divine favor, which impacts the environment. Here’s the exponential function mapping them. Soil fertility translates to how many plants can be supported in a farm plot. #indiegamedev

I’m working on a lightweight player notification system for my game. No interaction for these, but I wanted them to stack if multiple notifications arrive close together. #unrealengine #ue5 #ue #indiegamedev #wheatandwrath

The god of war and death is a living flame rising from a sacrificial pyre. The Wrath Infernal is enrobed and crowned in flames, with three fiery eyes representing life, death and sacrifice. #conceptart by Jacqueline Manherz #indiegame #wheatandwrath

From 3D model to animation.

Character concept for The Raider. Why would they grow their own wheat when they could steal yours? Follow us for more on the upcoming Wheat and Wrath strategy game. #indiegame #indiegamedev #conceptart #wheatandwrath

Am I doing this right? 😂 #indiegamedev

Rough concepts for raiders in my upcoming game. #indiegame #indiegamedev

More concept art from our upcoming game, Wheat and Wrath. There are four gods in the game, and we are imagining what the straw people in the game think their gods look like. This is the god of agriculture.

Meet Plowfather Edran, a religious leader you need help from to build your village, but is also a key adversary in Wheat and Wrath.

We’ve been focused on creating systems for a vibrant landscape in Wheat and Wrath. Here’s a preview of our latest work on the game. #indiegame #indiegamedev #unrealengine #ue #ue5

Watch the progress of Wheat and Wrath's main villager. From #conceptart to 3d render. This will be one of the straw people inhabiting your civilization.

I’m learning how to change the environment in unreal engine over time to simulate the passing seasons.

Our first straw man character fully rendered in 3D for Wheat and Wrath #indiedev #indiegame #3dcharacter #ue #ue5 #unrealengine

The #gameart of Wheat and Wrath has been developing promisingly. We’re aiming to have a very artistically unique game feel.

Recently, we've been storyboarding a core gameplay loop for Wheat and Wrath, something that will help direct development. We wanted to show it off!

Everything begins with Wheat. Grow food → feed your villagers → free up workers.

More #conceptart for Wheat and Wrath is here! These rough sketches are of potential prophets to the god of harvest, who we are calling Plow Fathers. They all look very mysterious, but 5 is our favourite so far. What do you think?
