The world is slowly becoming more full! Got all the residents with lil' dialogues, and as you progress through the game, their interactions will progress too! #gamedev #indiegame #indiedev

Decided characters within the god realms will be named by combining their god and main characteristic. For example, this one is Akhetra, a devotee of Ra and the sun's horizon. #gamedev #indiegame #indiedev

At what point does my game become "Spyro but bird"? lol jk, but defo pulling more inspiration from Spyro than most any other source. Is that a good thing, idk, I wanna believe it is. #gamedev #indiegame #indiedev

So unlike Twitter, I somehow gained followers instead of losing them here. Bluesky peeps built different.

Came across the first ever renders I made of Lars and Dr. Aura from 2013(?) I forgot that Dr. Aura used to be a young edgy emo when I originally made him, lmao. I'd like to believe that's just what he used to be growing up, haha. ^.^'

Level Portals! I know Spyro already did this. I don't care. I like it. Also had to make custom camera snapping and smoothing. Shoulda used Cinamachine, but nahh. #gamedev #indiegame #indiedev

Finally finished making the tileset for the Sanctuary (hub area)! Now I just gotta start populating it with the citizens and create the portals for each stage, Spyro-style! #gamedev #indiegame #indiedev

Been usin' #crocotile3d to set up my scenes and... yeah, I think I'll be using it for the rest of the game. The placement of the tiles is SO easy with this program... arguably, the only hard part is all the sprites I have to draw haha. ^.^' #gamedev #indiegame #indiedev

I know it's not that exciting, but I removed EVERY "quad", AND (with a lot of labor) managed to reduce the number of triangles to only 1,450! Right in between PS2 and N64 as far as complexity, so I think it fits right where I want. I'm happy with how it came out!

Added camera rotation that works similar to Zelda 64, with a snap-to-front button. Also a Double Jump! Gonna work on attacks and more movement options next, wish me luck. #gamedev #indiegame #indiedev

I now know what they mean when they say "suspiciously wealthy furries" because this sale has gotten me more purchases in 4 days than all year. XD

Yeah that's right, I finally made the most basic movement ever. It was difficult. I never made a 3D platformer before, lol. #gamedev #indiegame #indiedev

I don't intend him to talk, so I hope to convey as much of his personality as I can through the use of body language. (Animation is hard btw in case anyone is curious) #gamedev #indiegame #indiedev

If you zoom in on his beak while he T-Pose, he makes a lil' Pog face. This is important to somebody probably.

Just to share their size difference. I plan there to be quite a few of these lil' guys all around the Pyramid and they kinda just look up at you and tell you random things when you talk to 'em.

Randy Becker 🕹️ Unit Down @properdev.bsky.social · 09/08/2026

I think the residents of the Pyramid Ship should all look like this. Is it a borb? Yes. Sorta. No. Don't know what to call them yet. They turn to ceramic when they pass on. Lore stuff, I hate to say this is important.

If the new Warriors Cats game is online enabled, 10 bucks says it devolves into a bunch of RP sessions. There is way too much focus on the character creation for them to not know their target audience lmao

Em the Emissary is now fully rigged! I slapped this animation together in a couple hours because I was excited to share him, so uh... camera can be forgiven.

Randy Becker 🕹️ Unit Down @properdev.bsky.social · 30/07/2026

His name is Em. He doesn't have wings yet because I haven't decided on a design for them yet. He has paws for hands because I like paws. No further questions your honor.

I haven't modeled bird peets before. And yes I know I am mixing quads with tris and I don't care nobody will know except us it will be our little secret.

Randy Becker 🕹️ Unit Down @properdev.bsky.social · 27/07/2026

This is the character I had in mind! It's not a finished model but wanted to share what I spent the last 5 hours on. ^.^'

I wanna make an Egyptian mythology-based platformer game with a chibi Horus set in a sci-fi environment with pyramid spaceships & harvesting different colors of the galaxy to create spells. I know it sounds odd lol but does this at all sound interesting to anyone other than me?

PS is also removing several of it's online access on multiple consoles. So uh, Reminder that if Steam ever decides to vanish and you lose access to any of my games, let me know so I can give you a permanent download. I'd rather lose all future sales than think of the alternative.

Playing with a custom shader using Lars and his new model. Trying to make it more flat or cell-shaded. I'm pretty new to shaders though but it's been fun to play with ideas and see if something inspires me.

Been playing around with an updated model of Lars and some cell-shading concepts. Idk what I wanna do with it, I just wanted to see what it'd look like.

I even had an ULTRA cringy intro cutscene for the game... complete with full "edgy oc" insert and default Windows Media Maker texts. Wow.

Nah guys it is so much worse than I remember. Why did I make him blue? Why does he control like I never played a game in my life? Why does throwing cookies cost a resource and do less damage than just jumping on the enemy? WHY DID THE BOSS TAKE ME 12 TRIES, WHO WAS THIS FOR?

My friend found a USB with some of my terrible test builds of a... well... furry mario clone? I'd say I make better games now that I'm not a kid but actually no I guess I didn't change much lmao.

I mentioned once that I would give everyone my game for free if Steam ever vanished one day. Somebody then told me that'd be unfair to the people who bought my game already. But like... those are the ones Id be doing it for? I wouldn't want anyone to lose access to something they purchased.
