Finished the mainbird rig! Took endless iterations but finally it can do all the stuff I need and transfers flawless to Unreal Engine. 🥳 #indiedev

You all wanted it. Shame on you! Catching it might give a steam achivement though… 😅 #gamedev #indiegame #birds

Polished the intro gap today. Might need to add a Steam achievement for hitting the butterfly! #gamedev #indiedev #indiegame #birds

I tried painting normals and made a short recap video! Could this work with more effort and experience, or is this technique just not ideal for rocks? #indiedev #gamedev #3dscan #quixel

Hey #ScreenshotSaturday! Made a lot of progress this week, but all I can show you for now is... the new loading screen. =D #Gamedev #Indiedev #Bird

Here’s the first prototype of my mini game, but it’s not really fun yet. I think I might have to ditch the rim/peripheral view for spotting predators since it doesn’t feel intuitive. Any thoughts? #screenshotsaturday #gamedev #indiedev #solodev #bird

My daughter had to stay home today and immediately decided she’s working on my game now. 💘 #gamedev #indiedev #birds #owl

Finished the texture for the mini-game Mainbird! I started off aiming for a European blue tit, but the colors just weren’t working for me. Sometimes the best results come from happy little detours. What do you think? #GameDev #IndieDev #Bird

Haha, nice work around!

Oh boy… I’m almost finished with this texture, but it sure took me three times longer than I expected! The result is kind of mediocre—but it’ll have to do for now. #gamedev #indiedev

Rig complete! 🎉 After plenty of corrections and tweaks, it’s finally ready. Next up: unwrapping and texturing... #GameDev #IndieDev #3DModeling

Well, first rigging/deformation tests for the bird looking awesome 😅 #gamedev #indiegame #bird

Started to mockup the Mini-Bird-Game. I have some cool ideas for it, hope to keep the scope creep low. Working Title: TINY TITMOUSE TRIALS #gamedev #indiedev #indiegame #devlog

Uff, tackling the ultimate rigging challenge: wingfolding (game-performant edition!) 🚀 #gamedev #indiedev #devlog #3D

Bird now avoids crashing into trees without affecting player steering. Would you prefer this, or should it crash or steer away? #screenshotsaturday #GameDev #IndieDev #devlog

New bird implemented, but I’m already itching to update it. Guess I should tackle some collision logic first, though... #indiedev #gamedev

Back at it and finally diving into some days full-time game dev time! =) #indiedev #gamedev

Small update today: thinking about expanding the prototype model a bit to test some new techniques, like feather weighting and adding some wiggle using shaders and vertexcolor. #GameDev #IndieDev #MadeWithUnreal

Is this technically already a game? I’ve done it! Not sure if a racing mode will make it into the final game, but it’s fun testing! #IndieGameDev #gamedev #bird
