And now, because I write on a schedule, I'm already writing another article, perhaps a little shorter. But just a little.

Samerion's asset editor has just achieved one of its most significant milestones: it can create an entire model from start to finish! Next up, more work on Flamebox and… a whole new game. samerion.com/journal/2026-09 #Samerion #Flamebox #gamedev #indiedev #blog

I am apparently following as many as 500 people now. My feed is filled and I often fail to catch up with the work of many of the people I'm interested in. And I keep forgetting that I have set up lists! Or I forget to put the people into lists! Frankly, I don't think a purely chronological feed […]

Trying out a new method of drafting articles for the blog, and… well, the longest article to date was about 3000 words long, and now, within about two hours, I've written 3800 words for the next draft. This seems effective.

Here's another video showcasing the model better. I'm gonna have to add 45° angle faces for the head & horns, because they need more depth.

I'm getting ideas for a point-and-click(?) linear story game in the Samerion universe. Something small, 1–2 hours long. I've got two blog articles to write now, so I'll probably get working on the script once I'm done with them.

"A demon possessing me would hate it so much they'd immediately flee my body" No, no, no, you see, demons don't possess out of malice! And it's not that easy to escape a body. Instead, they will struggle in their own way, unused or unaware of your coping methods, making everything worse. Hope […]

Note for next time: Stick to the blog schedule. Grinding to push out an update *and* then immediately following it with a blog is one great way to get art blocked. (I'll be fine, but this sucks a lil)

The graphics jargon term usually used for something like this is typically "imposter" actually. As in, it's not a real 3D model, but a 2D imposter. www.gamedeveloper.com/programming/...

Imposters
Performance gains can be achieved by using texture atlases and instancing, but it won't be enough for dense environments like forests and jungles. For these, imposters are needed!

RE: mastodon.gamedev.place/@samerion/11… The hat is complete (but no photos to show yet), it turned out a bit too small but it's wearable. Right now I'm waiting for the water-protection spray thing to dry out so I can wear it in the rainy weather!

here's a piece of embroidery work that took me two weeks of finish. I am soon going to sew this into a witch hat. #embroidery #sewing #fern #art #fashion
Flat piece of brown felt meant to be sewed into a cone later. There are five green ferns embroidered onto it, with different kinds of grassy plants in between.

I’ve been posting these on IG but not here, here are a few of my favourites. Taking a line for a walk. I close my eyes and make a line then find an image in it. Second one got my fave reaction as a friend said: “How dare you turn that cowboy hat into the root of my trauma?” 🤣 . #sketch #art
