After a bunch of playing around, I have the base support for Spine animations in from @esotericsoftware.com in the game engine. Still a bunch of cleanup to do, and supporting code, but it works! #gamedev #indiegames #narrative #gameengine #indiegames #vn #vndev #visualnovel #indiedev

Project Mammut @projectmammut.bsky.social · 06/09/2026

While people are working with the stand alone versions of the app, I am continuing with the side quest of adding THREE.js support for 3d scenes. This is turning into a full game engine at this point. #gamedev #indiegames #narrative #gameengine #indiegames #vn #vndev #visualnovel #indiedev

Making a visual novel is a lot of work. Pre-made assets, especially backgrounds and music, can make the process much more approachable. We’ve compiled a list of recommended sources for free assets to help you get started routevn.com/en/blog/reco...

One of the side quests, looking at one of the long term plans for the engine. Add 3D support. Using the THREE.js plugin, and adding some hooks into Mammut you can hopefully see the plan. #gamedev #indiegames #narrative #gameengine #indiegames #vn #vndev #visualnovel #indiedev

Spent a bunch of time today working on the Animator. While it still needs a good UI pass, it's working well. Multi-selecting nodes, and adding in event hooks for audio etc. And lots more! #gamedev #indiegames #narrative #gameengine #indiegames #vn #vndev #visualnovel

More screenshots from yesterday's stream Might spend some time making emotes and drawings some backgrounds. But I love seeing my old art reworked in this form. #gamedev #indiegames #narrative #gameengine #indiegames #vn #vndev #visualnovel

Project Mammut @projectmammut.bsky.social · 13/08/2026

Yesterday during the live stream, I hacked apart one of my old comics to turn into a short #visualnovel, only a couple of bugs founds, but overall it went well. Would you like to see more live streams? #gamedev #indiegames #narrative #gameengine #indiegames #vn #vndev

Project Mammut @projectmammut.bsky.social · 12/08/2026

Even though it was hot today I got a bunch of work done. The stream today was good too. Got some more followers, and found a couple of small bugs which I fixed up and will push through a release tomorrow. I worked on a game which I'll polish up and release as an example of what can be done.

Ireland is going into another heatwave. I moved from Australia to escape the heat. So it looks like development of Mammut will crawl to a halt while I slowly die in a puddle of sweat. Gah.

So looking into stand alone versions of Project Mammut for version 0.8.x When did app signing become so expensive? $10 p/m for win $99 p/y for mac. I'm going to need some more Patreons... #gamedev #indiegames #narrative #gameengine #indiegames #vn #vndev #visualnovel

Next side quest idea, Multiplayer for the visual novels. This would only work for a small amount of games, but have the ability to play a game in a world where others are playing also. Would anyone want that? Would YOU want that? #gamedev #indiegames #narrative #indiegames #vndev #visualnovel

Some advice for podcasters. If you want people to be on your show, message them politely and be humble. Do the bare minimum amount of research about the person or project before contacting them. And understand that you are asking for at least an hour of someones time so don't assume...

How about streaming tools for your visual novel? Allow streamer's audience to vote on options of the game you're playing, or interact in other ways? #gamedev #indiegames #narrative #gameengine #indiegames #vn #vndev #visualnovel

I chat to a lot of people on here through various projects, and I'm not going to point out anyone in particular ,but if you use Chat gpt to write messages to people and think they don't know, you are wrong. Embrace being awkward and making mistakes. Don't make ai your personality.

I'm making a list of "Side Quests",things I want to add to the game engine outside of the main development. looking at how Spine exports rigs, and I think it would be easy to add. Moving characters.. What do you think? @esotericsoftware.com #gamedev #indiegames #indiegames #vn #vndev #visualnovel

In the future, I want to explore a node based programming system so you don't need touch the code. I spent some time playing around with this idea, but will need a bunch of work. Would this be something you'd want? #gamedev #indiegames #narrative #gameengine #indiegames #vn #vndev #visualnovel

So taking a week off production of Mammut allowed me to review the feedback from users and think about how people will make games with the engine. There are dozens of little components of the engine some well written, others not so, but all important to the product experience. Mammut is now less..

Over the past week I've had to focus on another project that needed my attention. That project wraps up today, I'm looking forward to jumping back into Mammut. Hello to all the new followers!!!
