For last two weeks we've been working hard on pathfinding. BoBY is REALLY complicated in that field (as it's dynamically populated vertically cluttered 3D environment), store.steampowered.com/app/2630690/... #indie #game #dev #gamedev #indiedev #indiegames #gamingsky #steamgame #gaming #steamgame

(1) Alright, this one was a beast. Battle of BackYard isn’t your typical “big open field” kind of game. We’ve got rooftops, doorways, vents, treehouses, and way too many... steamcommunity.com/games/263069... #indie #game #dev #gamedev #indiedev #indiegames #gamingsky #steamgame #gaming #steamgame

So I finished first part of implementing fully 3D space pathfinding for Battle of BackYard! Blue one in "raw" based on grid. Then it's corrected to achieve more streamlined version (green one). #indie #game #dev #gamedev #indiedev #indiegames #gamingsky #steamgame #gaming #steamgame

Just finished polishing music system for my game. Until this moment I was certain that coding UI is pain in the butt. No more! Coding dynamic, layered music system with seamless transitions is experiance akin to tooth removal without anesthesia xD

I started devloping games as a creative outlet to tell great, emergent stories... And that's why it's 10 straight hours of creating configuration files for furniture objects! XD

Some years ago my hard drive died with project on it. It was time I did not care about consistent backup schedule. So now aisde from backing up project in cloud I also back it up on USB with custom .bat Is this level of caution is already a paranoia? :D

Thos most infuriating thing about latest news is not that again games are portayed as violence. It's that for some reason Station SIX-9 is depicted as weapon used. Just... why...

AmongUs character giving silenced weapon to Luigi form Mario Bros. and saying "I think we're gonna have to kill this guy Luigi."

I don't think we should say "this game/book have dragons so who cares about realism". I do Dose of realism is IMHO immersive - ASoIaF has realistically behaving people and politics - Hogwart Legacy has (mostly) realistic graphic - ATLA has rules for bending that make world seem more realistic etc.

There is a special weapon in Battle of BackYard: Rubber Duck-o-Doom. This friendly looking and extatically quacking fellow is technically speaking an "intelligent" torpedo. Its intelligence allows it to become dead-set on nearest ship... Yet it does not allow to differentiate between friend or foe

I love Asimovs work. "Foundation" is one of my most beloved series. So I had that moment of "Look how they massacred my boy" after watching series from Apple. But... Intro is spectacular. That aesthetic of that Art Deco grandiosity with dim feeling of decay...

Start of the road vs. middle of the road (soon there will be also "end of the road" part)

#gamedev Good achievements are about feeling and not numbers. Satysfying achievements (*nod towards some of AoE2:DE*) are about putting player in very specific situation and state of mind. "Ensure historically accurate progression and feel like real figure" beats in that case "Kill 1000 enemies"

Damotr @damotr.bsky.social · 04/12/2024

From game designer perspective: creating 5 plane classes (+ "Special" category that is unique to conflict side) is a hell of struggle. I hope it worked in BoBY as we used active ("press button") and passive ("build-in") skills.
