Returning to Blender during the holiday after years of hiatus... No idea what I'm doing, but after an insane amount of time, I have a few trees ready for prototyping 😅

Started a little solo project yesterday. Planning to make a puzzle/farming game, as an excuse to learn more about nature, and to get into blender. Not sure if it will be any good, but I have tons of ideas to test. Planning to do daily-ish posts about my progress.

Hey, been afk for a while 😅

Been doing some irl stuff, spending some family/me time, and helping out with a few community projects where I live. Don't have much to share about Crucible yet, but here are a few pics of some classic cartoon characters taking over an old underpass 😀

Sometimes Unreal freaks out when you use multiple desktops/workplaces and switch between them while the engine loads. Other than that, I quite like the improvements. This is on Unreal 5.6 tho, don't know anything about previous versions.

Switched from Windows 11/Visual Studio to Linux(CachyOS)/Rider a few weeks ago. I was really afraid of the switch, but in the end, I love it and I don't think I'm going back any time soon.

(Only thing that hurts is Unreal load times going up, but hey, you win some you lose some 😅)

Silksong coming out also didn't help my time management issues, but hey :D

Sorry for the radio silence and me not finishing the countdown, dealing with a lot of personal stuff in the background.

That being said... Tomorrow at 5 PM CEST, I will truly reveal some cool stuff! :)

Sorry to keep you hanging! See ya soon :)

Hey, the new UI is getting close to completion! ✨

Now just need to plug the rest of the buildings in, complete the other UI elements and I can finally forget UMG for a while. 😅

What do you think?

Also... 1... (might or might not have lost a day in the count💀)

My cocker spaniel, Molly, on our couch. :)

I am working on weapon modificafions. Not a huge priority, but having a cannon shoot ice spikes out of a magazine sounds too cool not to implement! Couldn't get a screenshot in time, so here's a pic of my doggo instead!

Also, i have something big to show you all in 2...

Alright, I'm done with my yearly month long procrastination session! 😅

The Crucible must be completed! The Operation must succeed!

I have a dog who thinks she's a cat, does that count? 😆

That is a really good tip! Thank you, it definitely needs to stand out more!

The logo for Crucible, a tower defense game with deeper economy management. In the background, there are cliffs with trees. The text reads CRUCIBLE, with the U holding lava. At the bottom in the middle, one of the weapons from the game can be seen.

We started working on a logo for Crucible, and I need your input! 🔨 We have gone through a bunch of ideas, and we are open to suggestions! (more info in the alt text)

Congrats for your first asset packs! These swords look amazing :)

Crucible is coming along nicely! Working on localization setup and finishing basic weapons. 🔥

Here's a bit of early gameplay footage, focusing on build animations and the machinegun in action :)
All feedback is appreciated!

One of the maps from Crucible, my upcoming tower defense game. Enemies spawn at the red portals, and follow the brown roads to attack the middle structure.

Hey, back again!

A lot has happened in the last month, but most importantly: my game has a name! 🔥

The Tower Defense game is now called Crucible!
I was also lucky enough to be able to showcase my progress on a small expo and got tons of valuable feedback.

a tank on a gigantic minigolf course. There are ruined buildings in the background, slowly getting taken over by nature.

⛳ While I code, my friend Dani is hard at work creating the amazing assets for both of our games! Here's a small peak into the first course for Golf With Tanks! ✨

Finally decided my Tower Defense game's name!
Well, still not 100%, we want to build it into the 'lore', but at least I can finally start working on assets and logos! 🖌️
Nothing ready to show yet, just thought I'll give a small status update. 🐵

#indiedev #gamedev #towerdefense

Dinkum is free for the weekend on Steam, I really enjoy it so far. :)

Congrats for the page launch! :)

I am in full Tower Defense game dev mode right now, reworking and improving targeting systems. I set a pretty tight deadline for myself, but if I can keep it, I will be able to post some sneak peaks soon.

And also: 🔥🔨🏭

#gamedev #indiedev #towerdefense

Decided to keep track of how many times I unlock my phone today, and check back after a month or so to see how I'm doing. The day is far from over, and I'm nearing 100 unlocks, even though I have nothing to do on my phone anymore 🫠

Just removed almost every app from my phone, at least until the end of this month. I spent waay too much time doom scrolling and watching things on Youtube, so I needed to do something. Hopefully I can use the extra bit of free time well ☺️

#gamedev #indiedev

Hey, long time no see!

I didn't have the time to work on stuff lately, but that changes today! ✨

For starters, here's a work in progress image of a flying transporter enemy in the tower defense game I'm working on. There are big news coming soon-ish, so stay tuned! 🔥

#indiedev #screenshotsaturday

I love this, combining tower defense and platformers is such a cool concept! :)
