i felt like revisiting hitman trilogy, i wanted to see the environments again even though i have a lot of grievances with the gameplay i came up with a way to turn it into a really fun stealth-action i am going to name 'chimp mode' not just because i am chimp but because you must play like chimp

might as well shill this too🐒 25% enough times passed that its not recency bias for me to say this was my best and deepest game, but its also the least accessible by a mile it's the only one i can still have fun playing as the dev store.steampowered.com/app/2886740/... #gamedev #indiegame #steamsale

all my games on sale, but id like to point out this specifically youtu.be/VGMsbXDef-I looking back, i think its the tightest and most arcadey game i did even tho epoch has the permadeath also if ur one of the 2 people who beat epoch, you play as the final boss of that game here #gamedev #indiedev

literacy? wdym bro? yeah obviously you gotta grind the 1st season before the difficulty ramps up, thats good writing. the Screenplay Loop didn't really Click for me until 'Chris and the Greedy Gambler' have it start at season 6 quality? how would you understand the subtext? youtu.be/Y-v6T4gUmkw

just realised that doom is resi before resi tank controls, movement is awkward making it hard to avoid damage, so resources are important, backtracking forces u to engage multiple times. i think if a dev wants to iterate on doom they may need to think survival horror instead of fps or twinstick

im p much done with vidya now, moved onto writing and started this year which is going well. but apparently cant keep away from a little devving, made this over the past 2 days my idea is an arcade physics platformer in the vein of umihara kawase #gamedev #indiedev #godot

Fanart of three characters from the indie game "Twilight Epoch". It's very interesting.

concept for an unused book 2 boss, the only cut content i wish could have made it 'keef lawless' was a rockstar leader of the marauders, a whole plot-thread and duo of mad max levels that had to be cut for pacing. only the first stage was made, and is 1-6 in the final game #conceptart #gamedev

99% sure that im doing 2d games from now on, testing workflows n stuff. very exciting to be able to do fully handcrafted environments with no technical restrictions. only question is which game im doing next #gamedev #indiedev #pixelart #art

chimp @chimpgames.bsky.social · 30/09/2025

prototyping still not sure whether to do 2d or 3d for future games im leaning towards 3d because epoch was quite messy and i want to refine its ideas in a simpler game #indiedev #gamedev #東方Project #touhou

chimp @chimpgames.bsky.social · 29/09/2025

thinking of ways to translate the autoscroller snowballing dynamic of shmups into 3d action games. epoch had enemies teleporting to chase but i feel like theres a more elegant solution. its harder for actors to navigate 3d space so they tend to have more static and deterministic level design

probably doing 2d games from now on. starting to prefer them as a player, and as a solo dev the 3d workflow is too suffocating artistically testing 2d animation #indiedev #gamedev #touhou #animation #remiliascarlet
