Now this is how you do a friday night

David Wiltos @davidwiltos.bsky.social · 08/09/2026

Happy belated labor day in the US. Why belated? Because I spent the entire weekend laboring. NPCs are now ported over from #darkmessiah elements to the community edition. New capabilities too It's not perfect right now, but at least we're putting butt-to-boot #gamedev

How about a modular arrow system in #darkmessiah? Your model, your choice! The bows get the same overhaul. customizing on hit effects, arrow behavior, even the AMOUNT of arrows you shoot all within the weapon and item scripts Also enhanced quiver sys from DM Elements. More on that later #gamedev

I love #vermintide (I have about 1.4k hours on it) and have always ran Kerillian with Sword + Dagger. Well.. why not bring that to #darkmessiah ? Hello hybrids! This is part of a full weapon system overhaul in the CE that can turn any model into a weapon with no rigging required. #gamedev

Dropped a #darkmessiah community edition update in my Knockout thread, check it out! knockout.chat/thread/13854... We're still alive and kicking, more media and an announcement soon. You know how hard it is to balance grinding away at code and making posts?? How do people do this!

Need some #darkmessiah gameplay testers for a proof of concept roguelike arena! Every piece of the arena is randomly generated, like the terrain, the items, and of course the enemies! The elements here like the new Skill Stones and Skill Books will be used in our Dungeon Generator. Help! #gamedev

Thanks to all testers of the #darkmessiah mods, I pushed out updates that improve stability (SDK) and fix crashes in coop when your friends die As an added bonus, you can now interact with their corpse, which will decompose over time Perhaps I can turn that into a drag n revive mechanic😁 #gamedev

Thank you to all the news outlets that picked up the #darkmessiah news! While we continue to work on that port, remember that there WERE mod updates! For example, did anyone find the three relics in the DM's Prologue after installing the Restoration Mod?? Give it a try fellow hunters! #gamedev

Making good progress on the #darkmessiah SDK but still a ways to go. While trying to get custom weapons to fully work, observe as this guard practices their best goat impression! #gamedev #reverseengineering

Had an amazing trip at @ubisoft.com Montreal thanks to some very helpful tour guides (and photographers!) I'll hopefully be sharing some details about the trip, some fun facts about the studio, and of course what we can now do with #darkmessiah. The future looks BRIGHT! #gamedev

David Wiltos @davidwiltos.bsky.social · 16/02/2025

To be honest it basically wasn't! The team and I are comprised of splintered modders in the community combining to make one powerful force. The most we could do was just maps or new models, now we're moving beyond that. Maybe one day we'll give Sareth a gun or something 😅

I wanna thank everyone that's participating in the public beta for our #darkmessiah Co-op mod! As a reminder the team is looking light, so please if you're an asset maker, mapper, programmer, you name it, #rtx or otherwise, join the cause! forms.gle/QhitDkP6uTBA... #gamedev #reverseengineering

Anyone want to help me feed shelter animals in Poland by literally just clicking? Some Polish companies (my family's included!) are sending 20kg of food per animal once their bar fills up. Pick, click, and let's get them to 100%! You can vote once per day, per device, so you know 😉 nakarmpsa.olx.pl

Wanted to show an update with one of the stone textures by @lermanct.bsky.social in our #darkmessiah RTX mod. With feedback from our community we've perfected a method of pulling albedos from DM's textures allowing us to make almost 1:1 enhancements. LMK any thoughts! #screenshotsaturday #gamedev

So if Twitter has tweets, what does Bluesky have? Flutters?

This is what happens when you come late to the platform, someone creates a classic kickthrough video and you DON'T get to see it when it drops. Hurrah to the F button and your work!

First post on Bluesky! Since 2020, I've been #ReverseEngineering one of my favorite games, Dark Messiah, to add co-op mode, modding tools, RTX, and fix it up. I'll be making posts here to get feedback so DO NOT BE SHY! Here's a thread with the #GameDev history for now: knockout.chat/thread/13854
