When your crops keep dying, you need a grain god to help you out. For Wheat & Wrath we designed The Grain Father. A behind the scene look at how we got there. #indiegame #conceptart #3dmodel #wheatandwrath #unrealengine

A feature of Wheat and Wrath will be trading for technology, reflecting the way tech and knowledge was historically often transmitted through trade networks. There are no domesticated animals here so the straw people have to do the pulling. #3dcharacter #indiegamedev #ue5 #unrealengine

This poor villager is begging the raider not to take away his straw. If he had prayed more to the War God, he wouldn’t be in this situation. #3dcharacter #indiegame #gamedev #ue5 #unrealengine #wheatandwrath

In a magical world of straw people, they need a constant supply of wheat to re-stuff their bodies. Some farm their own wheat - others raid and steal it from the farmers. These are the Raiders. And here is some of the early #conceptart ideas. Which one is your favorite?

More #conceptart for Wheat and Wrath is here! These rough sketches are of potential prophets to the god of harvest, who we are calling Plow Fathers. They all look very mysterious, but 5 is our favourite so far. What do you think? #indiegame #gamedesign #indiedev

The #conceptart keeps rolling in for Wheat and Wrath! Check out these amazingly whacky rough sketches for the scarecrow villager homes. We love 2, 3, 4, and 6 - with the idea that these folks like to live in round homes. It makes them feel cozy. What do you think? #indiegame #gameconceptart

Here's the final concept of our Woven straw villager who you will be managing in Wheat and Wrath and I think it looks amazing. Only problem, we still don’t have a name for our character. Any ideas for a name?👇 I’d love to hear them. #gaming #conceptart #indiegame #gamedesign

A step in creating concepts for our Woven straw people for Wheat and Wrath, is to choose a colour palette. From there we move on to a final concept rendering. Which color scheme do you like the best? And what should we name this fella? #conceptart #gameart #indiedev #indiegame

Your crops in Wheat and Wrath can wither and die if they don't get enough rain. And then you won't have enough straw to restuff your Woven! Too bad you can't control how often the clouds come... Or can you? #gamedev #weather #indiegame #gaming
