iiinova — where your digital self keeps evolving

Oh in those it's understandable since you embody the character and make your own story. Don't understand it for games like Witcher though

Yeah but even when it's a HK scenario where it doesn't really matter, why do players crave the options? Just for agency's sake?

But like, isn't it better to have one solid story instead of multiple universes to satisfy everyone?

Working on enemies for a terran planet in Orbitfall! Here's the bat (approval pending) #gamedev #indiedev #gameart

What's gamers' obsession with multiple endings? I'd like to hear your takes. I'm personally not a fan of them #gamedev

A lot of bugs and mistakes to fix but 3 enemies are now in the game! Combat is shaping up nicely too but more on that later #DragonDancer #gamedev #indiedev #indiegame

Zelda bosses are usually pretty meh, but Stalblind and Koloktos are pretty cool

This is all part of what I said about working smart. Now I don't have to make death animations for everything

Naitor @naitor.bsky.social · 01/10/2026

Made an explosion for enemy deaths! Still gotta test it but it was fun (actually it was boring as hell lmao but now I can work on more enemies and get stuff in game) #ganedev #indiedev #DragonDancer #animation

Very meh for me. Cool visually but just that

100

Yeah that was OoT for me. Hell of an eye opener as a kid

000

The puzzles are pretty great overall, I really enjoy it! Combat isn't that good though. The pacing is fantastic

Unlike those who hate it gg wp

Im trying to beat Ocarina of Time 3D again before the remake. I cant believe I was falling into the "it's not that good a game" propaganda. This game absolutely fucks

GAMEDEV RULE #1 Work as little as possible! I made this whole mock up with only these drawings. which are now ready to be implemented into the game. Work smarter, not harder. #Gamedevtips #gamedev #indiedev #indiegame

The cool thing is that I can just export most of the assets here already and drop them into Godot. Need to look into the post processing though

More background tests! I think we're finally getting somewhere. Seems I'm gonna have to compromise on perspective but it is what it is #gamedev #indiedev #indiegamedev #DragonDancer

You took the "fuck AI" thing a bit too literal huh

Would you guys love my game if I was a worm?

Orbitfall is looking a lot better now with tiles! Still a long ways to go for it to look good but we're getting there #gamedev #indiedev #indiegame

That's amazing, thanks!!

Naitor @naitor.bsky.social · 21/09/2026

LMAOO actually yeah that could help

I'm doing mockup after mockup, tile set after tile set. Nothing looks right. I hate floors and I hate architecture

METROID II RETURN OF SAMUS (Gameboy ver.) #art #metroid #gameboy #NintendoSwitchOnline

I am now tackling the greatest hurdle for me as an artist and game developer: BACKGROUNDS

150

Yeah but it kills the dark, claustrophobic mood of the original and favors epic setpieces

000

Yeah Samus Returns is hands down one of the worst AAA games I've played. Just rancid. AM2R is a really really good game, but I don't think it does justice to the original either. Cannot recommend it enough

100

Note: the spider ball is, tragically, not in Dragon Dancer, this was just a meme

000

Naitor @naitor.bsky.social · 14/09/2026

The worst thing about a new Metroid is that people are now talking about the series again and people are hating on Metroid 2 and praising Samus Returns. The state of the fanbase is dismal. Anyway, Dragon Dancer is heavily inspired by the original Metroid 2 :) #gamedev #metroid #indiedev

Sketching up different ways for Cerese to get her ass kicked apparently #gamedev #indiedev

Watched The Odyssey for the first time, on IMAX last night. Holy shit Nolan did it again! He took one of the oldest, most deconstructed and analized stories in history and somehow managed to get everything wrong! 6/10, being generous

000

Because SR is dull, bloated and actively unfun. It misunderstands the entirety of what Return of Samus did while having worse environmental storytelling. The bosses are a drag, and enemies take a long time to kill unless you plant your feet and wait to parry. I do like Dread though, it fixed a ton

I would sacrifice both Dread and Ravenous for a timeline where Mercury Steam never made Samus Returns

My programmer made a dev tool so I can change values on the executable and then export a zip file so he can load it in Godot and apply my changes

Naitor @naitor.bsky.social · 10/09/2026

Working on hitboxes is weirdly fun. I don't get how but I get a certain satisfaction from tweaking them. #DragonDancer #gamedev #indiegame #indiedev

Yooo my man, this goes HARD
