iiinova — where your digital self keeps evolving

It’s fun! When I first tried it things just kind of clicked very nicely for me, and I was having fun building stuff. Since then I’ve done a few jam style games and released my first commercial game on Steam, all because I keep having fun along the way. #gameDev #godotEngine

Trying out making a TCG style card game. Thinking it might be fun to have an RPG layered on top, so the player can experience the game evolving over time with expansions and new sets being released. #gameDev #godotEngine #prototype

Coming out in less than 2 weeks! The Door at the End of the Hall is an anomaly finder set in an old manor hallway where you have 6 doors to choose from. Find anomalies, decipher them, and follow their direction to escape. store.steampowered.com/app/4405240 #wishlistWednesday #indieGames #godot

I probably should mention again that my game, The Door at the End of the Hall, is participating in Next Fest right now! Give the demo a try if you’re a fan of anomaly finders or observation games. 😁 store.steampowered.com/app/4405240/... #gaming #indieGames #steam #nextFest

Almost there. Piling is good, no explosions or too much jiggling. I just need to get the pile to settle a bit more so it's not constantly shifting. #godotEngine #gameDev #screenshotSaturday

When things go wrong with compute shaders, at least there's usually something interesting to look at. #godotEngine #gameDev #screenshotSaturday

Trying out compute shaders. Currently trying to get some good piling behavior via PBD (position-based dynamics). This one almost works, it's just a bit... explosive. 😅 #godotEngine #gameDev #screenshotSaturday

Now that my game is ready for release (coming out July 20th!), I'm back to prototyping to find my next project. Whipped this up over a couple of hours. It's pretty satisfying, so I might play with it a bit more. #gameDev #prototype #godotEngine #gaming #screenshotSaturday

My budget is $0. So I learned just enough editing to make this trailer. It's not perfect, but it is mine and I'm proud of it. 😁 youtu.be/f2gZWXBGJh8 If the game looks fun, please consider wishlisting: store.steampowered.com/app/4405240/... . #gameDev #soloDev #indieDev #gaming #godotEngine

My Steam build was rejected because “the credits aren’t scrollable.” There’s only one page of credits. Solo dev problems? 😂 #gameDev #indieDev #soloDev

Boring #screenshotSaturday this week. Just compiled a list of what I think I have left to do before I could conceivably release. Good luck reading my chicken scratch. 😅 #gameDev #godotEngine

Notebook with a bulleted list of tasks to finish my game. Mostly stuff like adding or adjusting settings and options or controller support.

Tell me the truth…lm..l'm ready
to hear it.
You can't just constantly start new prototypes.
Sometimes you have to ship games.

Dear aspiring #gamedev in Gen Z, Sometimes I see you taking rejection really hard… and I want you to know that it’s not you. The game industry is seriously struggling, and the result is that it’s harder than ever to break in. Love, A millennial #gamedev who is rooting for you against all odds

It’s fun being a #godot fan because when a new version drops it’s like an impromptu holiday. Seeing the community excited and engaged is refreshing, and a much needed levity break from *gestures vaguely at everything* #gamedev #godotengine

Sadly, I cannot self-fund the project anymore until I find a new job. Our biggest sponsor has to leave too. So things will slow down until we accumulate more funds; possibly through new services. If you enjoy the project, consider donating to it on Github Sponsors! github.com/sponsors/Gra...

Just added a web version of my Fire Escape game from #vimjam5. It’s not perfect, since the og version was made to use Jolt and have some desktop-isms, but it worked well enough I figured I would publish it anyway. renolc.itch.io/fire-escape #gamedev #godotengine

Watching The Wizard of Oz with my boys. When they go to get the witches broom the lion brings a comically large net and hammer, the tin man brings his axe, and the scarecrow straight up brings a revolver. He truly is the one with brains.
