It's #screenshotsaturday and I'm trying to update my Steam page for the Next Fest... So be honest - does this look good? Would you be intrigued to look more into the game? #indiegame #gamedev #Scifi

Early WIP, but really happy with the vibe I'm managing to pull off for the setting of chapter 3 of my Dark Roll 2! And yes, "it" will try to hurt you. #indiegame #gamedev #leveldesign #art

My marketing campaign has achieved brand awareness. Unfortunately the brand awareness is homicidal. #indiegame #marketing #branding #gamedev #threat

One thing leads to another. First I've added these AAA pillow physics for my tiny little indie game. Then the voices in my head told me to add the sludge, based on the same mesh deforming script. #indiegame #gamedev #physics #programming

Dark Roll 2 reached another tiny milestone! 1300 wishlists! It means a lot to me! #indiegame #wishlists

It's crazy what some particles and decals might turn out to look like! I've changed the color of lazers from red to purple, as the gems you collect are red, and it just looked confusing. store.steampowered.com/app/4417060/... #indiegame #Unity3D #gamedev #gamedesign #scifi

Early WIP guys, but I -really- like the direction it's going! Honestly, just spawning tons of decals and I know it doesn't look perfect, still very proud of it! Introducing... LAZERS! Coming to Dark Roll 2! You heard it first! #Unity3D #indiegame #gamedev #SFX

Artbarian Games @artbariangames.bsky.social · 14/09/2026

This level will take people around 1-2min to beat and I spent much more time on the decals and details than I probably should have, but I regret nothing. I'm proud of the vibe. #indiegame #gamedev #leveldesign #3d

Artbarian Games @artbariangames.bsky.social · 14/09/2026

That's what I get for showing my game, I guess. Do you think it's fair for Steam to allow things like this? #reddit #hate #gamedev

Meet Igor the Overseer in his natural habitat! My game uses volumetric lighting and I've applied it to the spot light attached to his eye - I love how that turned out! #indiegame #characterdesign #blender #gamedev

Artbarian Games @artbariangames.bsky.social · 11/09/2026

I love paying attention to detail. One of my levels has dripping goo from the ceiling... Not only I've added splash particles on collision contact - they also leave decal spots that slowly fade out after a dozen of seconds or so. #indiegame #gamedev #devlog #Unity3D

0103

Artbarian Games @artbariangames.bsky.social · 11/09/2026

Seriously, why isn't racing against ghost of players from the leaderboards a commonly seen feature? When I was implementing this, it kinda felt like most time-challenge games have them... But I can't really think of any! #indiegame #gamedev #platformer #Unity3D

I think #wishlistwednesday is just devs spamming other devs with link to their games. It's all useless noise - every week. It's better to post short devlogs. However, I'll use the occasion to share my current wishlist count. store.steampowered.com/app/4417060/...

You know how in Project Zomboid, some people put up mannequins in their base and dress them up in... well... questionable clothes? I'm a man of culture.

Artbarian Games @artbariangames.bsky.social · 06/09/2026

What do you think of the "Exit Crystal" design? One that player have to touch to enter the level. I think there's something a bit off with the animation/sound but I can't quite put my finger on it... 🤔 #indiegame #gamedev #art #Unity3D

Do you like FREE games? J-Jump Arena is a free to play turn-based chaotic party game with a twist! Players plan out their moves then the madness unleashes all at once! store.steampowered.com/app/1949970/... #indiegame #freetoplay #free #multiplayer

Artbarian Games @artbariangames.bsky.social · 04/09/2026

People keep asking about performance! The model is just 2k tris. Barely affects FPS. I think the texture done in Substance Painter does a lot of heavy lifting. #gamedev #physics #indiegame #Unity3D

Can't wait for tryhards to try and speedrun this! 😏 Steam Leaderboards rank chase is going to be crazy on this one. store.steampowered.com/app/4417060/... #indiegame #gamedev #platformer #programming

No DLSS 5. Just mediocre art direction. 🫩 And fog... Lots of fog.

How do you feel about racing ghosts of other players from Steam Leaderboards? Pointless feature? #indiegame #pvp #asynchronous #gamedev

Guys... what I thought was 1-2h of goofing around, making a soft looking material for my game, turned out to be a breakthrough for its visibility. Showing off this "pillow physics" online has gained me more wishlists than actually releasing the demo!🤯 #indiegame #indiedev

Artbarian Games @artbariangames.bsky.social · 29/08/2026

Guys, I was just making a silly little ball game and I think I've accidentally set new standard for pillow physics in the AAA industry??? 🫠 (Sound on please!) #indiegame #physics #gamedev #screenshotsaturday

Artbarian Games @artbariangames.bsky.social · 26/08/2026

What's a silly little unimportant feature you spent way too much time on? For me it's this pillowlike-mesh-deforming script... I regret nothing! #indiegame #unity3d #gamedev #programming #feature

072

Artbarian Games @artbariangames.bsky.social · 24/08/2026

My game, Dark Roll 2, needed a soft spot to land on from height, so I made this pillow-like mesh deforming script! It dents under player's weight, then slowly deflates to its original size! Cool or nah? #indiegame #gamedev #gaming #programming #unity3d

Artbarian Games @artbariangames.bsky.social · 24/08/2026

Crazy to think I've been making games for around 8 years... Here's a screenshot from J-Jump Arena, a turn-based multiplayer game that I've released a while back. The twist? Everyone picks their move, then it plays out all at once. And it's free to play, too! #free #freetoplay #indiegame #turnbased

Artbarian Games @artbariangames.bsky.social · 22/08/2026

When I don't make games, I play them. And the development of this little gem, I've been following for well over a decade now. Ladies and gentlemen - Project Zomboid - the best survival game there is out there! Me turning a completly abandoned building into a home:
