Been away for a while after moving to the new house. The good news is I have a garden now and can take some great reference photos! I even have mushrooms, I feel more like a gnome than ever!

Ground shot looking at some clovers and a brick wall can also be seen in the back

A patch of dirt with small planta growing, ground level again, grass and more red bricks can be seen in the bg

#indiegamedev #gamedesign Ive always been a fan of troll levels and troll games, but i think what makes "trees hate you" particularly successful is how it creates a consistent antagonist to represent the relentless absurdity. The trees end up having a lot of character despite not having faces

migrating some of my sandbox #shaders into main project, need to lock down some of the materials to be used and work on a little 'beautiful corner' environment styleguide this week. One of my favorite shader creations, no textures,all procedural,maybe make it a bit more NPR #devlog #gamedev #godot

Every time I have felt a need to use AI it has been one of two things. 1. Fear at the limits if my skill, and a way to avoid facing them. 2. Laziness at not wanting to do the uncomfortable part of an artwork Both of these instincts if endulged will stunt growth and learning.

A new photo from the Empty Quarter desert. The sun rises through a dusty horizon over the dunes. Memorable moment alone in the desert. Was nice surprise cause that’s only after climbing the dunes before sunrise that I saw the beautiful atmosphere at the horizon. #photography #nature #art #explore

Posted by a friend on Instagram. Yea, I see the resemblance to the other nine men. Taking it in seriously. During #WomensHistoryMonth, I can personally reflect on this, and feel amazed at how women have made history despite this built in disadvantage. Backwards, in heels, and harassed.

Out of 10 men , one makes a sexual joke at a woman, two laugh, three fake a chuckle to fit in, and four stay silent. None of them speak up. Later, none of them still believe they're the "good guys." But from the woman's perspective , the laughter, the silence , the looking away, it all creates the same environment. So when women say "most men are the same," this is what they mean: not that every man harassed women, but that most men helpmprotect the system that does.

Testing to see how minimal I can go with textures, I like this but feels very unfinished, I might have to add some normals 🧐 but to be honest I think I'll end up with the flatter look after all these tests 🤡 #gamedev #indiedev

Happy #screenshotsaturday everyone! I didn't have much energy to work this week since I have been looking for a new place to move, but I have a gif of a couple of enemies! They're meant to represent pollution and both are using the same material, it is very flexible and cheap! #indiedev #gamedev

Things are shaping up in my art-test level, I'm learning so much so fast, it's exhilarating! And let me tell you, making convincing moss at this scale is hard! #indiedev #gamedev #ue5

A screenshot of a natural scene in unreal engine, camera is at ground level among the grass, looking at a big, hollow, mossy log's dark opening as the setting sun lights everything from the left with a warm tone, shining on tiny rocks and dry leaves. Colors are vibrant, overall it looks realistic with light stylization.

Leo @leoleus.bsky.social · 21/02/2026

Made the first plant, an European Sycamore tree sapling, but it turned out too realistic (not to mention a mess for lighting xD), so I'm thinking about the game stylization right now! Wish me luck! #gamedev #screenshotsaturday

An unreal 5 screenshot of my level, we seem to be standing on the leaf of a sycamore sapling, looking at the far, blurry background, the light shining through the leaves

Some level art for my game about a tiny gnome. Learning about landmass and procedural generation and scattering in this test level. Lighting here is the same setup, just different places and elevations of the level 😃 #screenshotsaturday #indiegame #gamedev

Some dry leaves on the ground, a big circular clay pot is half buried in the ground and looks like a big cave. Some rocks look like mountains in the bg

Again at ground level this time we focus on a beam of light creating beautiful color gradients

This time we are in the shadows looking at what seems like a small dry river bed, which looks almost like a canyon

From the shadows looking up at the warm sunlight burning through the heavy haze

I’m not arguing with no account defending AI. My grandmother lives in an area being environmentally compromised currently by an ai data center. I remember the color of the lake before they built it and the sludge I see in it when I go to see her. Shut the fuck up about “the benefits of AI” forever.

Morning, bitches! Some upsetting statements on #creation from management -The larger the creative team the less likely the work will be notable -Great #art is almost always created independent of corporate requirements -Art that changes the world is usually what no one knew they wanted at the time

Continued: -if you create something great for a corporation it’s far more likely you’ll never get the credit or the money for it as opposed to making it on your own -corporate creative jobs are neither stable or a method of “making it” as an artist -owning your work is key to success as an artist

Check this one fact out: "In 2024, the total installed electricity capacity of the planet—every coal, gas, hydro, and nuclear plant and all of the renewables—was about 10 terawatts. The Chinese solar supply chain can now pump out 1 terawatt of panels every year."

I can’t speak for everyone, but my mind tends to treat writing an article, making a video, writing a song, cooking a meal, drawing an image, and, apparently, designing software the same way. It’s not a matter of just “generating” something perfect from my head, but exploring the tension that exists between what I’m imagining and the limitations of my stupid meat body. That’s actually the exciting part. It also lets me figure out if something has turned out wrong or just resulted in a happy accident. Vibe coding, like every new trend coming out of Silicon Valley, turns this process — the entire act of creativity, itself — into a slot machine. One more pull on the AI and maybe it will figure it out for you. You won’t understand how any of it works, of course, or feel particularly proud of what you’ve done, but maybe you’ll have something. Just a few more dollars for some more tokens. C’mon, just pay a bit more.
