Been improving the NavMeshes. All of the gems, powerups, and enemies of course, use it for spawning/moving. Not a fan of using UnitSpheres for that, so trying out Triangulation instead. Happy Wednesday! Wishlist Riftseekers: s.team/a/3611180 #GameDev #IndieGame #IndieDev #WishlistWednesday

Working on an Air Temple, and this will be the garden room. There will be a main corridor that occasionally has a strong wind blowing through. The wind will push the player/enemies. The player will also get stuck in the corridor for the boss fight. #WishlistWednesday #GameDev #Unity #3D #IndieGames

My fiancée made me some low-poly igloos and a chest in #Blender. I haven't done much animating, but doing something like putting a hinge on a chest and rotating it is very simple. Wishlist Riftseekers: store.steampowered.com/app/3611180/... #ScreenshotSaturday #Unity #3D #GameDev #indie #games

Our poor girl, Midna, needed 6 teeth extracted. It was a rough few days after, but she's doing much better now. Isara got 4 teeth extracted just a few weeks ago, but she had a much easier time. #caturday
