I want the HUD in my game to feel completely immersive with zero clutter. Here's a look at my current hotbar distortion effect. What are some of the smartest ways you've seen games communicate player status using the absolute least amount of UI possible? #gamedev #indiedev #ui #unrealengine

Experimenting with some new color grading directions for Ashfall. I wanted to see how a deeply desaturated blue palette would shift the atmosphere. It really helps the eclipse punch through the volumetric fog. #GameDev #IndieDev #SurvivalHorror #UnrealEngine #ColorGrading #Atmospheric #IndieGames
Experimenting with some new color grading directions for Ashfall. I wanted to see how a colder, deeply desaturated blue palette would shift the atmosphere. It really helps the eclipse punch through the volumetric fog and heavy ash. Dialing in that isolating survival horror mood takes a lot of tweaking, but the environment is finally starting to feel right.

Ashfall began as a chaotic collage of personal experiences, ideas, dreams, and synchronicities. Just tying those scattered pieces together as time went by, turning them into a structured video game with an actual narrative, has been a wild ride. I will continue to showcase what is taking shape.

Working on the night lighting and atmosphere for Ashfall, leaning hard into that classic survival horror dread. #Ashfall #UnrealEngine #IndieHorror #GameDev #IndieGameDev #SurvivalHorror #UE5

Taken aback, once again, with the new knowledge I've gained - both personal and professional. The core pillars of Ashfall have been warped into new shapes that offer a better glimpse into my own psyche.

A statue of a hooded figure stands still—until the shadows start moving. Is it just a trick of the light? Or is it an entity... #IndieHorror #HorrorGameDev #IndieGameDev #PsychologicalHorror #IndieHorrorGame #indie #game #dev

Ashland’s air is thick with smoke and silence, where every shadow hides a story waiting to be unearthed. #HorrorGame #IndieDev #UnrealEngine #SurvivalHorror

The desolate and smoky remnants of Ashfall stretch endlessly. Every step feels like walking through the ashes of something ancient... and hungry. 🕯️🔥 #HorrorGame #IndieDev #UnrealEngine #SurvivalHorror
