If Epic were looking to bump me off of my 4 year bender of learning C++ and #unrealengine they are going about it in the right way. I have 1000's of hours and lines of code at this point, but I will 100% walk away from it based on their roadmap. #godot might be the move. #gamedev #indiedev

For me Solomon's Key was an important arcade game that somehow arrived in Chch, NZ in the 80's. I was interested to read this interview with the designer. #tecmo #retro #arcadegames #japan Michitaka Tsuruta - a history of Tecmo and classic platform-puzzlers - www.gamedeveloper.com/design/michi...

Every step towards something that might be worth playing feels pretty good. A basic playable loop and improved authoring tools are next on the road map. The further I go the more the work of @oskarstalberg.bsky.social looks like witchcraft! youtu.be/FVw_amiIqtE #unrealengine #gamesdev #indiedev

Here is a milestone I have been working towards for a while. A stake in the ground, a line in the sand. The tiles know things about each other and fit together based on a seed... #gamedev #indiedev #blender #unrealengine #saturdayscreenshot #tilesformiles

Stack 'em up, rack 'em up. Currently debugging visual debug code and trying not to lose my mind. I am enjoying my newly clean tile joints though.

Testing out different tile node density (4x in this case) and their edge states, in yellow. It's looking good enough to move to some basic mesh module selection code. #indiedev #unrealengine #tilesformiles #blocktober

In the 90's I started drawing with a technical pen and my work didn't look bad, but using those pens took me down a path of painstaking, tight little lines. To escape that spiral I started drawing comics with ink and brush.
