A new demo is out for Tamabuki. Everything is still very early so there's not much to do, but I would love to hear any feedback. #indiedev #indiegame #indiegamdev #gamedev #horror #survivalhorror #vpet #virtualpet nylad15.itch.io/tamabuki

A new enemy appears...! I wanted to do something closer to Gundam, but I think Medabots, Digimon, and Yoji Shinkawa still ended up inspiring a lot of this design. #indiedev #indiegame #indiegamdev #gamedev #horror #survivalhorror #vpet #virtualpet

New enemy. He's just a little guy. You wouldn't attack him on sight, would you? #indiedev #indiegame #indiegamdev #gamedev #horror #survivalhorror #vpet #virtualpet

Working on a heads up display sort of thing to show you your pet's energy (essentially ammo for your gun and any abilities you may decide to use) and other stats while aiming.

Spent the day modeling some cool little low poly toy packages for the game. They don't have a spot yet, but I'll certainly put a conbini or toy store in the game later for them to make an appearance in. The one on the left is from a fellow dev's game: Acrolyte.(wishlist on Steam now!)

#3d #lowpoly #gamedev These are like, infinitely better. I'm never putting physical holes on low poly models ever again. I should've been using alpha textures from the start. What was I thinkingggggaaaaaa

Is it me or is it dusty in here? (Dust particles are enlarged so they're easier to see) Took me a while, but I got my flashlight to have dust motes in it that get occluded by shadows. #indiedev #indiegame #indiegamdev #gamedev #horror #survivalhorror #vpet #virtualpet

Very cool car that will be seen in-game almost exclusively with a beat-up broken grossy gross texture layered on top of it.

Made a popcorn machine and some dumb little candies to populate this gross-ass theater with. #indiedev #indiegame #indiegamdev #gamedev #horror #survivalhorror #vpet #virtualpet

I added trails to the laser beam. Would like to know what people think. Is this too distracting? I can't help but think of the trails on the motorcycle lights from the opening of Akira... #indiedev #indiegame #indiegamdev #gamedev #horror #survivalhorror #vpet #virtualpet

Yay. I got a really nice state machine set up to quickly craft enemies that can patrol, chase, attack, and perish at the hands of the player! #indiedev #indiegame #indiegamdev #gamedev #horror #survivalhorror #vpet #virtualpet

I wonder if this character will show up in an indie survival horror game where you defend yourself from horrors using a gun that's also a Tamagotchi...

Love Battle Network. Maybe I'll model Bug Style someday...

Big Guy nearly modeled. Will be texturing him today. He's giving Digimon and I'm quite glad to see it. #indiegames #indiegame #indiedev #survivalhorror #monster

A commission I did recently for @crowbyte.bsky.social They're the crow form of their Karasu Tengu OC! Be sure to check them out. I hear they may debut as a vtuber in the near future...! #lowpoly #vtuber #crow

Working on making the world first, but here are some monster designs to be afraid of once I populate the game with them. #indiedev #survivalhorror #virtualpet #monsters
