Finally finished the colour grading and sfx on one of the scenes in the game. It’s getting there! #gamedev #indiegames #indiegamedev #indiegame

New Friday the 13th trailer gave me depression. Why the hell you need to explain the supernatural stuff.. WTF are you doing to this franchise!?

New Gears trailer gave me chills. We are so back. I cannot wait!

Holy shit I really want to write some things about industry but cannot - maybe it's time to open another throwaway account.

The game is dead. What am I supposed to do with all this Destiny knowledge now?

Hellkind BTS time! Once upon a time there was a pistol.. I’m glad that I’ve decided to cut it but never say never for the sequel.

I thought I had thick skin, but some comments about Hellkind still manage to get through and then just stay in my head forever.

I am in Leamington Spa, it’s 6pm on a Sunday and there is no single person outside. Such a weird place.

Do people still make / share starter packs here? I'd love to find new ones and be part of if I can!

I liked Halo Campaign Evolved but what the hell is happening with inconsistent + super low performance cutscenes and dumbed down enemy AI? The whole thing leaves a sour taste in the mouth really. It is really hard and exhausting to be a fan.

Yesterday hurt. Not because they're numbers on a spreadsheet, but because they're people. Friends and colleagues. My heart goes out to everyone affected. The industry keeps losing incredible talent, and it's exhausting to watch.

UK trains are amazing. Cold weather? Cancelled. Hot weather? Cancelled. Too much rain? Cancelled. For no reason? Cancelled. If not cancelled it is expensive, dirty and always delayed anyway so wtf is this honestly..

Even Double Fine is considering closing - what are we doing here even…

Made bunch of portraits for Deadstock - used stock videos and applied Node Machine from SynkitNET. Turned out to be super funky. Contracts are basically side quests from faceless rich people and institutions asking you to make the world worse. #indiegamedev #gamedev

While it was under AGS my UR team supported Clutch and I’m super excited for Maverick getting to show it off!

Looking forward to ILL and Laufey - but Rayman stole the show for me honestly.

I am so upset that they are killing Destiny. At least shelving for a few years. Such a shame.

I respect Bungie big time because no other AAA leadership would approve that graphic design vision, iconography or font selection today. That kind of risk-taking is nearly gone. Talk is cheap in pre-pro, then graphic design gets safer and muddier. Thank you Bungie for being better.

Someone called Hellkind 'Skinamarink-like' and my job here is done. I will sleep happy today.

New Resident Evil teaser look good but yeah I'm curious about the connection to the IP.

Had some questions about how Deadstock looks like. It’s still very early - UI is incomplete and a lot is missing - but I’m genuinely excited about where it’s heading. #gamedev #indiegamedev

Okay I had to delete the last post because of the incredible low quality (and the iOS overlay joke didn't land well). Will post again a decent one later. But yes - Marathon is definitely an ispiration!

020

Emir Arkman 🩸 Play Hellkind! @emirarkman.com · 24/04/2026

Marathon is a masterpiece and my GOTY. I haven't done any game dev on Deadstock since the release because all I do when I'm back home is playing Marathon.

I was watching a Hellkind gameplay and streamer said 'she does not know what to feel about the plot because game never told her what to feel about it'. It's like an uphill battle isn't it, what am I even doing here?

Oh no I missed all the dev conference deadlines 😭 If any conferences (wish I messaged Develop:Brighton in time) need a speaker, I’ve got a talk on shipping Hellkind + indie horror marketing ready to deploy and love to be part of it. I should send messages in advance next time.

Emir Arkman 🩸 Play Hellkind! @emirarkman.com · 03/04/2026

Speakers should be removed from mobile phones since humanity clearly isn’t educated enough to be trusted with them.

As you can see again, no one cares about how you made the game or how impressive your code is. It is a product, and only thing matters is if the game is satisfying, is fun to play etc or not. Make the game with blueprints, with store assets.. no one cares - except twitter.

Emir Arkman 🩸 Play Hellkind! @emirarkman.com · 06/03/2026

I don’t even allow myself to touch the prod, how come you guys skip permissions and allow agent to destroy everything - I cannot get my head around it.

Emir Arkman 🩸 Play Hellkind! @emirarkman.com · 01/03/2026

Well... fuck. Time to lock editor version early for this project then.

I am in love with Marathon’s art direction.

Listening to Dead Pony and South Arcade obsessively for the past couple of weeks and I’m genuinely thrilled the 2000s are back.

Emir Arkman 🩸 Play Hellkind! @emirarkman.com · 15/02/2026

Is a discord for pure collective momentum worth it? I’m thinking of a high productivity space to share raw progress and push each other towards the finish line. Solo dev is hard but accountability makes it easier? Even if it’s just for 10 people... or are there existing ones I can join? Not sure.
