This is one of those features that have existed on my head for 3 or so years. A lot of thought and finetuning has been done mentally before I set up a single line of code. #gamedev #solodev #indiegame #unity3d

A key component has been missing from my combat this entire time. I used #claude to build a little prototype to get a feeling for what I imagine a critical hit to work like in my game. feedback welcome! www.mazestalker.com/Mazestalker_... #gamedev #indiegame #solodev
You snooze you lose: Old Landstalker callback, enemies can steal the gold now. Also created a new enemy with sophisticated escaping behaviour! $$$$ #gamedev #indiegame #mazestalker #landstalker
Step 2 in improving the gamefeel! Yes, yet again, I reworked the sword-animations! I did t a ton of small improvements to all the animations and effects of my main character! I like this for now! #gamedev #screenshotsaturday #indiegame #solodev #unity3d
I have finally managed to replace every single Adobe tool with something that's not only better, but free. It stung at first, but it feels nice to be liberated! For video I cannot recommend Davinci Resolve enough, but then you probably know this! For Photoshop I use www.photopea.com
You want a Chrono Trigger remake, go play Chrono Trigger with a MSU-1 mod.
Thank you, I'm honored!
Only years of work make you truly develop a sense for gamefeel. Sometimes the little issues irk me so much, that I have to sit down and polish a bit more. This time I worked on the jumping. Lot's of little details! #gamedev #indiegame #solodev #landstalker
Discouraged? Why? Looks awesome!
Moribito was a big inspiration for my game bakc when I was collecting ideas!
I'm still in a mode where I fix issues from the Unity upgrade every time I want to do something new. But somehow in between all that I still manage to get things done. This area received a lot of visual polish today! #mazestalker #gamedev #indiegame #solodev
Yeah, exactly! When you start out it's so tempting to try and implement it just because you have the animation vailable.
I think an animation like this is the first big test for any beginning #gamedev. Do you understand why it is nonsense?
So happy you are sitll working on this!
I'm sitting on a serious data serialization bug, so all I managed is some design finetuning! Frustrating... #gamedev #indiegame #solodev #unity3d #screenshotsaturday
Bei mir kommt der ganze Dialog auf einmal auf den Screen und wer sich durch die Story Button-mashed, wer bin ich dass ich das unterbinde. Mich regt sowas auch immer auf.
ll in a day's work! #gamedev #UXDesign #mazestalker #indiegame #solodev
Another thing that broke visually in my Unity update was the inventory menu! Unity changed the way several cameras are handled so I had to rebuild this from the groundup! #gamedev #unity3d #solodev
Social media is a mess... It's commendable you stand for something, even if that doesn't pay the bills.
All the way in January I stopped posting. I could basically not go from one scene to another while recording and it frustrated me a lot. It was incredibly difficult to find why, but I isolated a deeply rooted issue that has now been purged! #gamedev #screenshotsaturday
I added some effects, but the real change is noticable in the UI: I'm reworking the loading system so the game actually works when I hit play. That way, I don't have to avoid moneybags in my GIFs anymore... #gamedev #unity3d #madewithunity
That's what I thought... I think I'm better off skipping this one!
Love working on this! I think I got most of the kinks worked out at this point! #gamedev #unity3d #madewithunity
Good! It should! :D
I dare you to scroll down to when I started working on all this. It's crazy how long it takes my solo-self to reach implementation after ideation. But now I'm here, all works together and I'm hyped to build some levels! #gamedev #unity3d #madewithunity #coding #programming
This is why I have a female protagonist. What is there even left to tell about another fantasy guy...
Now the next step in life is that they want to buy from you!
This enemy was so much work, but I think it's a very fun addition! Now I can finally get back to other things (hope I don't forget the sound design later)! #gamedev #unity3d #madewithunity #gameanimation #devlog
Do you enjoy making this? Then keep going. Are you just tired with it? Then seriously think about what you would love to make next! I can tell you put a lot of work in this and a lot of work means: You leanrt a lot! Your time is never wasted!
