Yes, we can definitely keep in touch. Animation is one of my biggest weak points so it could definitely be of help.

Etherwind @etherwind-game.bsky.social · 20/07/2026

For the time being, I'm doing everything myself. If there's anything I'd need help with, it would be asset & content creation but I'm still a ways out for that. Thanks for your interest!

I spent some time improving the look of the character info screen. Feels much better now! #gamedev #indiedev #mmo #indiegame

I'm hoping that Etherwind's Job Boards feature (procedural tasks) will give players a lot more to do vs the typical "grind the same mob for hours" in older MMOs. Plus party size influencing the amount of rewards you get should incentivize grouping up more than doing everything solo. #gamedev #mmo

It's officially been 1 year of working on Etherwind! After so many bugs, Unity headaches, a successful public playtest, and a lot of criticism and feedback, I'm extremely happy with where the game is at the one year mark. Here's to the next year, and hopefully Early Access will come soon after!

It's always a great time when I get to combine my two favorite hobbies - game development AND music production! Here's one of the pieces of soundtrack I've put together that I'm really proud of! soundcloud.com/vessra/stepp... #indiegame #gamedev #mmo #ost

Stepping on Leaves

For the past year, I've been working on a game called Etherwind. It's a 2.5D side-scrolling MMORPG, and I've been having a lot of fun building it and making music for it. Here's one of the songs from

Put in some time to polish the Catacombs dungeon a little more by adding a background and some more lights. Looks very atmospheric now! #indiedev #gamedev #mmo #indiegame

I've been doing a mix of both, using asset packs for small details and learning blender making my own assets at the same time. For the really artsy stuff like character art and backgrounds, I get freelancers.

It's been a bit since an update because I've been hard at work implementing skills and abilities. Here's some more playtest footage of Etherwind from earlier this week! www.youtube.com/watch?v=NuSD... #gamedev #solodev #indiegame #mmo

I've been quiet lately because I've been working on a ton of refactoring & optimizations. I just spent the last couple days working on a weather system and wanted to show off the effects! Definitely gives the game a cozy vibe. More soon! www.youtube.com/watch?v=pLe7... #indiegame #solodev #gamedev
