Back in the UK for a bit and I noticed that the union flag on my dads street is at half mast. Has Tommy Robinson died or something?

New weapons system in progress...Introducing the Omni-Rifle! Always equipped and can instantly switch between 4 different fire modes. The Omni-Rifle can be upgraded at Omni-Tek terminals found throughout the city and is holstered on Glitch's back during sword gameplay #gamedev #Indiegame #UE5

About a year and a half ago I had the thought... what might a classic Zelda game look like if it was cyberpunk? 18 months of solo-dev time later... #indiedev #zelda #cyberpunk #gamedev #solodev

Atmosphere! Been working on a rain / storm system for my game - It works across exteriors and interiors. It features falling rain, splashes, puddles and sound effects all tied to a single intensity slider for dynamic control. #gamdev #indiegame #UE5 #cyberpunk #zelda

Finally added an outfit customization feature to ChromePunks. Available in clothes stores and eventually at the players apartment. Had to throw in a few easter egg outfits of course. #GameDev #IndieGameDev #UE5 #Zelda

I always enjoy working on adding little environmental worldbuilding features for my game. Today it was this little guy who scrubs the floors in the unmanned hotel in the seedy district of town #chromepunks #ue5 #indiedev #gamedev

New dynamic camera system - mostly to try and avoid foreground objects / buildings blocking the player for now - but also to give a control the camera position changes during dialogue events etc. Next step will be to tie it in with the combat system and for cutscenes. #indiegame #UE5 #zelda #gamedev

This is a shot from a personal UE5 Short film project I've been working on in my free time (I really need to get back to it). Spent ages faffing in Unreal Engine 5 and then with Nuke Particles to try and get the bullets working... Eventually settled on a rotopaint frame by frame. #oldschoolmethods

Some work from the Japanese sci-fi film "Previously Saved Version". This project was my first feature-film credit as a comp supervisor when working at Rocket Science last year - was a pleasure overseeing these shots. #vfx #compositor #previouslysavedversion #filmmaking #CGI #spaceship
