Working on lighting, weather, and some shaders for foliage. I forgot to mention a reason for the game being called God's Tears, is it's eternally raining around the kingdom since the barrier fell and the fog rolled out of the Parsix valley. It's up to you to find out why. #indiedev #gamedev #godot

Snapped this in game while walking around testing geometry. I've made several rocks/cliffs to start modeling and terraining the higher area. This area has an optional upper area with a mysterious mansion to explore. I'll be making modular house assets to make it. #indiedev #gamedev #godot

Managed to get some walls, terrain textures, some dead wheat, and a bush modeled. Going out of the greybox into modeling phase now. I think this area is going to be tricky to make it visually appealing compared to others. So that's why I'm starting with this one. #indiedev #gamedev #godot

Phoenix D Steele @phoenixdsteele.bsky.social · 22/09/2026
Finished the textures, the one thing I will probably remake are the stairs, I need them to be functional, and these work, but I think I can do better. I will most likely need to manually create the collision for this model. #godot #indiedev #b3d

When trying to find reference photos for windmills, I realize there's literally dozens. So I eventually gave up and used utter bullshit to make this thing's interior. I'll post a picture of it fully textured when I'm able to lol. #godot #indiedev #b3d

Made 1 building out of several for No Man's Land area/zone. I'm hoping they look good all together, with the foliage, terrain, rocks, and other props etc. Still have a lot to go. #godot #indiedev #b3d

Haven't posted anything in a week, I'm alive, but I've been locked the fuck in on creating the save/load system for the game. Once I finish this, I plan to put up the steam page, and create the discord for initial playtesting. #gamedev #indiedev #godot

I ended up deciding to hold off a bit on the save load. I wanna 100% lock-in how to handle progressed dialogue in the world the last piece of stuff that needs to be saved. Instead today, I worked on version 0.1 of the main menu. #indiedev #godot #gamedev

No pretty post today. Finished the backend to keep unique items, enemies, and other stuff to track, and update between level changes. Tomorrow I create a save/load system to use it properly. And plan the introduction to the game. Looking to come up with alternatives to cutscenes. #indiedev #godot

Phoenix D Steele @phoenixdsteele.bsky.social · 05/09/2026
Finished 4 initial drafts of areas today. And decided to add a HUB type area. Opting for a faster workflow, by doing a rough graybox of all the areas of the 100% in godot. Intricate areas like within the Castle, and Forgotten Dregs will require significantly more detail. #indiedev #gamedev #godot

Not using any AI garbage at all in God's Tears, a dungeon crawler I started last month. Been keeping it secret, but I'm finally gonna start making some areas and posting daily, after spending a month working on some scalable, and modular systems to showcase a prototype! #indiedev #gamedev #godot

Not many games let you style on enemies like you can in KOOK. It's not easy, but you can kick bullets back at enemies (and use the flamethrower jet thrust to propel yourself). Wishlist: store.steampowered.com/app/2329690/... #ScreenshotSaturday #RetroFPS

Today, Double Fine Productions let go of 23 members of its staff.

As a small, tightly knit team, these actions are not taken lightly. Only the survival of our studio would ever make us consider such a painful action. Our transition to becoming an independent company means becoming a size that we can sustain.

The people we are losing were all important. They all made an impact on our games and culture, and they will be missed.

We are committed to supporting each affected person as best as we can, and we thank them for their hard work and commitment to the creative spirit we cherish here at Double Fine.

-Tim
