Today was the day my uni decided no game-dev work allowed, so take this Rem photo instead

Well, I have a bunch of reference images that I go off of, but a lot of the actual placement and layout in the engine depend on what I feel is right and on overall visual clarity.

I thought I'd wrap up the main Electrical Machinery and Terminal Station by the end of today, but I ended up having to do a lot of texturing by hand for the Electronics stations. Still feel like there's something off tho, what do you guys think?

Last night, I got so inspired by these Cryptid fish that I ended up modeling this bad boy, the "Pallid sailfin". I wonder if I could somehow incorporate this into Benthos?

Today was spent making a blockout of the Submarine's electronics room, can't wait to go in and give it that final pass

Spent the last couple of days working on this In-game terminal. It was tricky getting this thing wired for multiplayer, but I loved how it turned out. I especially like the SFX for pressing keys, it's got just the right satisfying feel here :)

Benthos has come a long way this week! The underwater feels more underwatery, the fish feel more fishy, and the Submarine is more Submariney!

Steam Store page up soon! Follow to stay updated!

Submarine shielding works 100% of the time with absolutely no potential for failure or breakage.

Since I last posted the Maw fish a few days ago, I've been really trying to make these guys FEEL like proper predators. Hunting nearby creatures, protecting their territory, going home after the hunt, and waiting for their next snack. Cool stuff!

> New Original Music composed for the first zone!

The submarine interior blockout is to a point where I'm okay leaving it be. Ofc, this is all probably going to change more and more as we work on things, but tomorrow I'll work on making all this actually moveable (submarine steering returns!)

Is there such a thing as too many pipes?

#gamedev #indiegame #horrorgame #indiedev

Today I did some more blocking out for what will be the "storage room" of the player's Submarine 👀Thoughts?

Call this an IRL #ScreenshotSaturday week since I was out for GDC! I got to meet plenty of great people and attend plenty of amazing speaker events that'll help a ton in the development of Benthos! #GameDev #IndieDev

Exactly 1 year ago, I made a post showing off very early footage of Benthos

It's been a year since, and I can think of no better way to showcase how far we've come than with this custom #screenshotsaturday throwback video! Enjoy!

More Submarine Interior Progress! Expanded now to the hallway and the lower level!
