Can finally show what I've been working on. Starworn: a voxel world you can tear apart, climb and survive in, alone or with friends. Built for VR from the ground up. #VR #indiedev

Testing out what #bevy has to offer in terms of nav-mesh package. Using rerecast, landmass and avian + some custom steering, not too bad for a start. #indiegamedev, #gamedev, #bevyengine

Have been working on a very different kind of game. This time its turn based and UI heavy but I still dared to do it in #bevy 👀. Here a small sneak peak of one of the enemies #gamedev #indiegames

Update on Flingy, it’s now possible to toggle music and sfx, and some improvements on the audio overall. In addition, it’s now available native on iOS (as long as spots are available) Just click the link here: testflight.apple.com/join/MAM6BrYF #bevy #bevyengine #indiegame #gamedev

Little update to Fling-a-Ding Improved visual clarity for the multiplier mechanic. I somehow can’t stop working on that little prototype, and one of the main reasons is the pure fun and joy when working with the #bevyengine. #bevy #indiedev #gamedev occuros.itch.io/fling-a-ding

Quick update on Fling a Ding, I managed to get the sound and music consistently working now for iOS. If you haven’t yet, please give it a quick try, it works in the browser directly on your phone (and let me know what you think)! occuros.itch.io/fling-a-ding #indiedev #bevyengine #gaming

I made a thing, and it’s called Fling a Ding (working title 😅). It’s a physics based Highscore chaser, which my friends tell me is slightly addictive and made for mobile! Please check it out (free): occuros.itch.io/fling-a-ding And let me know what you think! #bevyengine #indiegame #gamedev

What and immense effort to write so detailed release notes and migration guide, and of course the actual implementations. But it’s so valuable and useful, huge thanks to all the contributors and maintainers!

We needed a way that even when you run out of weapons you can still recover. Introducing the sneakers! Run fast and jump higher and collect the crates to get more weapons. Did we maybe overdo it with the 🔥🔥🔥? Na can never have enough fire on your shoes... #gamedev #indiegame #indiedev #vr

Very early on I made a very simple aiming indicator, just a line with a ball, it served its purpose but everyone found it ugly 😅. Now we upgraded the aiming with proper indication where the bullet is going based on the power you apply. #gamedev #indiegame #indiedev #vr #metaquest

We added a new animation when the hamster gets knocked out by an explosion. Inspired by the cartoons I watched as a child. Hope others find it satisfying as well. #gamedev #indiedev #vr #indiegame

Chain reactions are satisfying... if you are not part of the chain... Still need to balance them a little better, they can sometimes blow up nearly half of the island 😅 #gamedev #indiedev #vr

We are working on a new title screen for 💥💥🐹💀 (its for #vr). After many iterations we ended up here (yes there is a typo) It’s rendered in #blender3d, not yet imported into the game engine. Any feedback would be appreciated #gamedev #indiegamedev

Might this be too violent? Trying out new death animations for the different weapons. It’s not finished, but wonder if that goes in the right direction? #indiedev #gamedev #vr #metaquest

Anyone else restarting #factorio from the start, as it has been a long while I played it last? Or are you converting a previous save for the space age content?

After a lot of work, the terrain starts to look promising. Tgamedev #indiedev #vrothed after creation and the shader got a lot of love too. We still manage to make it run at 72 fps even with networked destruction and regeneration thanks to the burst compiler and jobs! #gamedev #indiedev #vr

Characters are now replaced with the mighty Cohams! (Combat Hamster 🐹) Also experimenting with hand tracking for a potential alternative input next to controllers, exploding barrels, and a little minigun as a weapon. #gamedev #vr #indiegame

Over the weekend I wanted to experiment with a game concept but ended up implementing an enhancement to the prototype editor of #bevyengine 😅. Filtering entities based on index or component, all possible due to the dynamic query features. #gamedev #indiedev

So the search continued, and after a lot of YouTube videos and multiple questions online I ordered the Lowfree Flow. I was very skeptical as everyone was praising the build quality and sound so highly 🤔. So I got mine yesterday and these are my first impressions. 👇

First alternative I settled on after a lot of research and by the restriction of what’s available in my country I settled on Keychron K5 Pro. The good parts: - Bluetooth/Cable connection - Mechanical - Low Profile - Easy to replace or repair individual keys - Full layout with keypad (for blender)

I started a journey to replace my apple Magic Keyboard with a more robust alternative. After having continually some keys fail or become harder press even on a replacement one, I started to have enough.

Greetings Blueky community, I have been working on a new multiplayer VR game. The goal is to combine multiplayer, physics, procedural terrain generation, and explosions 💥 in a satisfying package. Guess which game was a big inspiration? #indiedev #vr
