Hey there friends! Unfortunately, I was among those impacted by layoffs at Heart Machine last week. If you or someone you know is looking for an experienced Unreal Engine Technical Artist, I'm available for full time, part time, or contract opportunities.

YESSSS!! Took a couple days, but I now have one motor function that can lets penguins hit any point on anything with any point on any other thing. Probably one of the most versatile motor tasks I've made. SO happy with this! 🐧🐟🔨🙏🧊🚿🪵 #GodotEngine #gamedev #indiedev

When you "shout" in the air you make a small leap 😉, ideal for when you almost missed a jump. Though for more advanced players the more interesting aspect is that it resets your air state, allowing for a second air dive 💨 #ScreenshotSaturday #GodotEngine #GameDev #IndieDev #Platformer

Making a save system is the worst. I've been using resources to save my game state in Godot, only now realizing that all the references to external resources (i.e. other save classes) are file paths. Thus if I move any of those classes in my project the save file breaks 😭 #GodotEngine

The launch trailer for Sheepherds quadrupled the views of the announce trailer—I made a video on the changes i recommended when @ultimodisco.bsky.social hired me as a consultant. My main advice was show more gameplay and not worry about making the game look packed with features.

Tried another platforming obstacle. This one probably won't make it as it is too easy to accidentally fall out of it or otherwise fail that doesn't feel nice. #ScreenshotSaturday #GameDev #IndieDev

Cool thing with the compute shader approach is that I can also hijack the cloud raymarching loop to chuck in some volumetric fog in a different buffer with barely any additional computational cost ✨ Now try to imagine how cooler this would look if those cloud shadows were actually accurate 👀

Full world paint system using Godot's lightmap UVs to automatically work with any mesh in the scene. Godot doesn't actually support doing this so it got a little hacky at one point. #godot #godotengine #gamedev #gamedevelopment #indie #indiedev #indiegame

In my memory there were a lot more Bwomps (or any shoving platform) in 3D Mario games, but there are surprisingly few. There are about 2 levels per galaxy game and even then the level has like 2-4 Bwomps in it 😔 Anyone know of more examples in other games? #leveldesign #platforming #platformer
