I know it's low priority. I know. But I made water splashes anyway. No regrets. #indiedev #indiegame #mecha #gamedevhumor

Gave the map a toon look! Here's how it compares to the blockout from last time. 音楽：魔王魂 #indiedev #indiegame #screenshotsaturday

Settled on an art direction! Had AI mock up 6 options and compared them ↓ Quickly tried realistic vs. toon in-engine ↓ Went with toon for readability and dev cost #indiedev #indiegame #mecha

Image 1: six AI repaints of the same game screen (realistic, anime, glow effects, comic, toon, monochrome), with toon marked as the pick. Image 2: in-engine comparison of three scenes, toon on the left and realistic on the right; the toon side reads clearly with reddish and green ground under a teal sky, while the realistic side is washed out in grey.

Blocked out the map! Just flat colors for now, but five different areas are coming. 音楽：魔王魂 #indiedev #indiegame #mecha

Made the boost effects! Also threw a blur on the screen edges — feels like it adds to the sense of speed. #indiedev #indiegame #mecha

Made a quad-legged mech. Isn't the walk kinda cute? #indiedev #indiegame #mecha

Got to play "DARK MACHINE" and "GUNDAM ROGUE ORBIT" at Tokyo Game Show! Mecha games are the best. #TGS2026 #TokyoGameShow #mecha

Struggling with the UI for looting gear from enemies... You hold a weapon in each hand, so an Apex-style swap doesn't work. For now it's PUBG-style drag-and-drop. Maybe swapping with the left/right fire buttons would be better? 🤔 Any games I should check out? #indiedev #indiegame #mecha

I implemented a battle royale mode and dropped 60 mechs in lol #indiedev #indiegame #screenshotsaturday

Here's a quick look at the leg types! Reverse-joint → jumps high Quad → fastest on the ground Tank → the most HP Which legs would you fight with? #indiedev #indiegame #screenshotsaturday

Prototyping vertical missiles, grenades and a shotgun. The missiles might be tracking a little too well? 🤔 #indiedev #indiegame #mecha

Been wanting to make a mech action game for years — finally started 😎 Aiming for a battle royale where you tear parts off the mechs you take down. Everything is still just boxes, but stick around and see where this goes! #indiedev #indiegame #mecha
