Hey it's my first Scrimshaw Saturday! Here's some textures on grandma's house I've been working on this week. #indiedev #indiegame #screenshotsaturday

Framerate issues people might be having aside, Nivalis Nights is hot shit. It's the first time I've played a game and not taken the "good" path. No, I'm going to drive my competition into the dirt while climbing on their shoulders to reach the top.

Death Stranding was “uwu I hope the BTs don’t hurt me” and Death Stranding 2 is “FUCK YOU I WON’T DO WHAT YOU TELL ME”

One of these things led me to soldering. As a Pokemon kid, I strangely owe a lot of creative credit to these toys. I’m breaking this one out again and trying to get every mon. 20th anniversary model.

You never have to worry about bad AAA releases when you’re a year behind in your backlog. Death Stranding 2 starts now. That Wolverine news was obvious from 1000 yards away.

I love the wipe when the ball hits a wall. So buttery smooth.

Did you ever see this kind of drain? This was in a village in Ontario. Distant memories and more to come. #gamedev #indiegame

The games remake/remaster trend has gone from chronic to excessive.

Just your typical spirit child of the forest but I’m not going to let one nightmare creature stop me from playing. This game looks incredible #zelda #nintendo

Sometimes you just know a game is out there and you are waiting to find it. Something you missed to scratch a particular itch. This week that game has been 1000xRESIST.

Making the same tree gets old quickly, but making a treeline is a big dopamine hit. Switching roles, you're in a cycle of "a little work = small reward". It keeps things fresher than when I get into a coding groove or something. Glacial process pic attached #indiedev #gamedev

Baby steps. I still don't know if this is easier or harder than 2D but it took me a while to be able to fire off a walk animation in 2D, too. #indiegame #indiedev #gamedev #3DModel

I'm roughing out an action figure of a lion that I played with at my grandparent's house. This probably belonged to one of my older cousins before it became a bath toy for the younger ones. music from mobygratis.com #gamedev #indiedev #indiegame

100% worth the effort. Looks great

Love it. Reminds me of excellent 16 bit graphics like Dragon Quest

My grandpa was a left-handed golfer, but these are just going to sit in the garage anyway. The Tam o' Shanter cover is historically accurate. #indiedev #gamedev #indiegame

Yesterday was a good reminder that you’re always 1 old avocado away from having your whole house put out of commission

Let's make some templates before the dogs wake up. I used to draw every day but not for a long time. I'm working on grandma's mouth shapes while speaking. I'll create one for each character in the game. I can iterate much quicker by hand here. #indiedev #gameart

If it’s any consolation, your videos are often a place of respite for me.

I really like your palette. The sky and shadows really lend this scene a sense of mystery and intrigue. Really cool stuff.

How's the narrative-driven adventure/exploration game dev going? Grandma and grandpa are almost done... #gamedev #indiedev

Some knockoffs of popular name brand boy's sneakers in the 90's- the Passaic Blues, Chunk Tompkins, and the Victory Aztec sneaker. Need to finish these today and then I'm thinking socks and sandals? #wip #gameart #videogameart #indiedev #gamedev #3drender #blender3D #sneakers

Some weekend progress pics. First time making NPCs. I have no idea what I'm doing. I tried sketching some other Hergé style chars but I think I landed on a Windwaker version of teenage Calvin. #indiedev #gamdev #Blender3D #3DModel #3DArt #art

I really like the effect. I imagine this speed would be like someone shaking their head “no”. Could you try slowing it down until it’s like someone’s gaze drifting slowing back and forth? I get a little dizzy staring at the edges of the screen where all the best details are.

2 pics of the living room furniture models. And one of the reference photos I used with my dad and grandma from 1984. Not pictured are my maternal grandparents who made the drive from Philadelphia to Ontario. I was still a twinkle in his eye, so to speak. #indiedev #indiegame #blender3D #gamedev

Modeling an early 80's riding mower my grandpa owned for at least 2 decades. I think this model started coming out in 1977. I'm still deciding how much access the player has to this as a vehicle. It moves pretty fast for a 12 year old driver. #indiedev #Blender3D #3DModel #3DArt #art

I was drawing these characters this weekend, trying to get the bob right. There are some other models that behave the same way so far. #gamedev #indiegame #pixelart #scifi #MQCS

Haven't been motivated to post anything I've been working on, but here's a background I'm happy to be working on. Hey, it's only inconsequential to the player lol #gamedev #gaming #indiegames #IndieGameDev #Steam #pixelart #scifi #solodev #MQCS

Awesome improvement, and I love the character design. Especially the 1 glowing eye.

brian @ edgewood @edgewood-games.com · 05/09/2025

One thing that stood out to me is that the part of the wing where the bone would be is as wiggly as the tattered part of the wing below it. That seems uncanny when the creature's body isn't moving. I like the effect on the wing a lot, I would just straighten out the bones.

brian @ edgewood @edgewood-games.com · 05/09/2025

Really good work here. You're already pretty solid at exaggerating the poses in your keyframes for effect, and your 'tweens show a keen eye for animation. Plays with contrast well. The twirl effect is looking sharp, the wings are basically done there. Color palette/character design/scale draw me in.

Prototype screens for a virtual-pet based around raising a prince or princess to lead a kingdom. Uses an ESP32 chip for communication with other devices. No cleaning up poop, no hourly feeding schedule. It's called The Prince: Divinely Ordained V-Pet #pixelart #GameDev #バーチャルペット#Vpet

It's been a while since the last update but we are proud to share that the full pool of cards has been made! Effects have also been decided but not displayed in the pictures. The battle system has also been coded! 👍 #pixelart #indiegame #gamedev #indiedev #deckbuilder #roguelite #boxing
