New tentacled mob, because no superhero saga is complete without one! #indiedev #indiegame #gamedev

Bodzin @bodzin.bsky.social · 26/07/2026

New item mechanic just dropped. What do you think? #screenshotsaturday #indiegame

Bodzin @bodzin.bsky.social · 23/07/2026

Welcome to our ballet school! #gamedev #memes

Bodzin @bodzin.bsky.social · 22/07/2026

Been playing around with these orbs in BODZIN. Still figuring out how they should move and behave. Damage, defense, or a bit of both? #unity #gamedev

Bodzin @bodzin.bsky.social · 22/07/2026

We’re kind of working on all three at once. Whenever we get stuck or tired of one, we switch to something else for a bit.

Depends on the area. Sometimes it’s pretty obvious, other times you’ll have to poke around a bit.

Bodzin @bodzin.bsky.social · 20/07/2026

We do plan to add weather, but it’ll be more of an extra feature once the core game is in place. Right now, our focus is on quests, mechanics and design.

We’re glad you liked it! We’d love to have you as one of the first people to try the demo

Thank you

Devlog: some objects on the map are now interactable. and no, they're not just there to look pretty. figuring out why is part of the fun #devlog #indiedev

Bodzin @bodzin.bsky.social · 15/07/2026

Good point about the tile transitions. We’ll definitely look into that. As for the weather, we’re not working on it yet - it was just created for the trailer. Right now, we’re focused on quests and puzzles.

Bodzin @bodzin.bsky.social · 15/07/2026

Thanks! It’s our first game, so we’re always happy to hear both positive feedback and constructive criticism.

Added power cells. Guess what they power.🔋 #indiegame #pixelart #gamedev

Bodzin @bodzin.bsky.social · 09/07/2026

We just added an enemy ship to Bodzin - a new source of pressure on the map. It ferries enemies around and drops them in unexpected spots, turning familiar routes into potential ambushes.

Bodzin @bodzin.bsky.social · 07/06/2026

The main page of our wonderful game #gamedev #indiegame

Bodzin @bodzin.bsky.social · 21/05/2026

Been quiet lately - deep in mob AI work. But had to share this: hit our little guy and he kind of... curls up. We think it's adorable. What do you think? #pixelart #gamedev #indiegame

Bodzin @bodzin.bsky.social · 12/05/2026

Hi guys, new enemy! #pixelart #gamedev #devlog

Bodzin @bodzin.bsky.social · 11/05/2026

Hope more of you share your take here. We’re really building this game for our people.

Bodzin @bodzin.bsky.social · 11/05/2026

First person to share their thoughts, thank you, genuinely appreciated. Point B from the poll is really about safety. I still remember how annoyed I’d get in Diablo 2 having to run back for my corpse. That said, it can absolutely be a core pillar. Elden Ring and Dark Souls are proof of that.

Bodzin @bodzin.bsky.social · 10/05/2026

What should dying in a game do? A — Nothing, just respawn me B — Roll back to a checkpoint C — Take away resources D — Reset my whole run Reply with your letter 👇 #indiegame #gamedev #poll

Bodzin @bodzin.bsky.social · 10/05/2026

Absolutely!

Bushes now go out in style: they catch fire and explode into a little shower of leaves before disappearing. Feels so much better than just popping out of existence. Also finally gave the Evil Fruiter its own animations. Little guy's got personality now. #screenshotsaturday #indiedev #indiegame

Bodzin @bodzin.bsky.social · 02/05/2026

Yes, what do you think about it?

Bodzin @bodzin.bsky.social · 02/05/2026

New tiles! What do you think? #devlog #gamedev #indiegame

Bodzin @bodzin.bsky.social · 29/04/2026

Tiny devlog: bushes break now + drop items 🌿 be honest, do you smash every destructible object you see? I know I do #devlog #indiedev #gamedev #indiegame

Bodzin @bodzin.bsky.social · 26/04/2026

Building the world, bit by bit. 🛠️ Fresh tilesets and smooth transitions are in. Currently doubling down on level design to make sure every inch feels intentional. Still lots to do (weather, lighting, SFX), but the vibe is finally there. Sound ON! 🎧 #screenshotsaturday #indiegame #pixelart #gamedev

Bodzin @bodzin.bsky.social · 23/04/2026

wow! that's evil. noted 👀

Сlassic move, but where's the fun in that?😜

Hey everyone! New mob: the evil fruiter!! He's got berries the cat wants. The real question: what does he do when you try to take them? drop your attack ideas below #gamedev #indiegame

Bodzin @bodzin.bsky.social · 23/04/2026

You're welcome🤩

Bodzin @bodzin.bsky.social · 21/04/2026

New abyss zone tiles, because you gotta fall somewhere. 🕳️ Also working on platform islands to float over them and - some new enemy plants. #indiegame #gamedev #pixelart

Bodzin @bodzin.bsky.social · 18/04/2026

The world's been growing quietly. Here's a peek at what wandering around looks like right now - more to come as always 👀 #indiegame #gamedev #screenshotsaturday

Bodzin @bodzin.bsky.social · 17/04/2026

Y'all loved the inventory - here's what it actually looks like in motion. There are guardians. They need saving. That's all I'll say for now 👀 ... Oh and this is my first ever video edit so… be nice 😅 #indiedev #gamedev #gameplay

Bodzin @bodzin.bsky.social · 15/04/2026

We'd love to honestly! Switch is a dream but right now we gotta focus on Steam first. One step at a time lol but it's definitely on our radar 🙏

Bodzin @bodzin.bsky.social · 15/04/2026

Love this - would you mind dropping it in #suggestions on the Discord so we don't lose it?

Bodzin @bodzin.bsky.social · 15/04/2026

Did some animation work today. The stuff nobody notices but everyone feels - a bush just breathing in the background. That's the job😅 #indiedev #pixelart #gamedev

Bodzin @bodzin.bsky.social · 15/04/2026

#devfact We actually had a concept where all NPC dialogue was done purely through emojis. Dropped it for now since we didn't want to confuse people, but if our writing turns out to be terrible we might just go back to it 😂

Bodzin @bodzin.bsky.social · 15/04/2026

That means a lot, thank you! And yes — you'll be the first to know when the demo is ready 🙏 Demo Days sounds awesome too, would love to see Bodzin on a stream someday!

Bodzin @bodzin.bsky.social · 15/04/2026

More coming for sure! We'll be dropping screenshots, videos, gifs gradually as we go — don't want to show everything at once haha. Stay tuned!

Bodzin @bodzin.bsky.social · 15/04/2026

We do use some AI to speed things up on the dev side, but all the actual creative stuff is ours. No AI art or anything like that — the whole point of this game is that childhood feeling from the games we grew up with, so yeah, we take that part pretty seriously

Bodzin @bodzin.bsky.social · 15/04/2026

Steam for now. It's just a handful of us so we're keeping our focus there first. Maybe other platforms down the line but one step at a time lol. And yes — full controller support is definitely happening 🎮

Bodzin @bodzin.bsky.social · 15/04/2026

Those 👀 are very welcome here! Hope we can keep you interested as we show more of the game 🙏

Bodzin @bodzin.bsky.social · 15/04/2026

Just joined Bluesky and honestly hoping this is the right place to find people who actually care about indie games 🙏 We're making Bodzin — think Zelda vibes, lots of love, two devs doing their best lol. Follow along if you're into that kind of thing! 🗡️ #indiegame #unity #pixelart #gamedev #inventory
