Solodeveling @solodeveling.bsky.social · 21/09/2026Looks like Bluesky doesn't support attaching animated GIFs (wtf?), so have an MP4 of the CPU rival building a settlement :> #solodev #gamedev # indiedev #bigdata 1114
Solodeveling @solodeveling.bsky.social · 21/09/2026Testing time! My Rivals AIs are unleashed (classic CPU-controlled rival)! They're playing at super high speed against each other & I gather telemetry data. City builds are on display as well! #solodev #gamedev #unity #blender 0125
Solodeveling @solodeveling.bsky.social · 13/09/2026My project's AI statement states that I - rarely, but still - use placeholder graphics generated by AI. It also states that as soon as I can, these will be replaced by real art. And these are not empty words - the creative purge has begun! First victim: the logo #solodev #gamedev #blender #artists 0123
Solodeveling @solodeveling.bsky.social · 12/09/2026Busy dev life! Caught up on updates: landmark naming, Coat of Arms, graphics & perf tweaks Stay tuned, no social breaks forever #solodev #gamedev #Unity3d 0163
Solodeveling @solodeveling.bsky.social · 19/08/2026Update alert! Been tackling bugs & model updates. Ocean reflections, streets fixed & storage indicators added! Back from social media hibernation :) #solodev #unity #blender #gamedev 082
Reposted by SolodevelingMazeStalker @mazestalker.bsky.social · 06/08/2026Theres many issues that are just #UX problems that a player might not notice themseves. Gotto figure those out by watching. I hope I once and for all solved the problem with everyone running into spawning enemies. We will see.. #gamedev #indiegame #solodev 0164
Solodeveling @solodeveling.bsky.social · 06/08/2026Sooo much is happening! I've added better ship models, fixed bugs and added new features. The harbors are starting to look alive! I also was able to honor a request that several testers had: a "Tourist Mode" that enables you to walk through your settlements. And snow! #solodev #unity #blender #indie 0151

Reposted by SolodevelingMazeStalker @mazestalker.bsky.social · 14/06/2026So I had to live with this a few days before I commit. The character moves slower on the edge. Isometric platforming is hard so I do think this helps a little. But of course, this means the animation system gets upgraded yet again! #gamedev #unity3d #solodev #indiegame 0161
Solodeveling @solodeveling.bsky.social · 13/06/2026Pre-alpha update! I'm thrilled to share the new 'Roanoke' scenario with you all. Will you uncover the mystery of the lost colony? Took my breath away working on this story-driven adventure - it was fun and exhausting at the same time :) #solodev #gamedev #Unity #Blender #gamedev #prealpha 093
Reposted by SolodevelingMazeStalker @mazestalker.bsky.social · 10/06/2026Step by step I put together all the FX to make this scene work. Not important for the game at this moment, but very important for my trailer! #gamedev #indiegane #solodev 0181
Solodeveling @solodeveling.bsky.social · 09/06/2026Thanks for the love from my first pre-alpha testers! Implementing Scenarios & revamping the Main Menu is next on my to-do list. Can't wait to see you all play the next pre-alpha build coming end of this week, with the first story-driven scenario in place! #gamedev #Blender #Unity #SoloDev #PreAlpha 0102
Reposted by SolodevelingMazeStalker @mazestalker.bsky.social · 08/06/2026Today I updated my demo with a few quite significant changes. I feel quite confident that this was a big step up in the fun department! #gamedev #indiegame #solodev 0181
Reposted by SolodevelingMazeStalker @mazestalker.bsky.social · 06/06/2026I've been finetuning a new feature. This is part of the ongoing process of adding more interactivity to the environments. You can only do this from a certain height, adding a healthy dose of spatial thinking. #gamedev #indiegame #solodev #screenshotsaturday 1143

Reposted by SolodevelingMazeStalker @mazestalker.bsky.social · 01/06/2026Alright it's all ready now: I can create characters on runtime and make them use the dialogue system. Now I only need to set them all up. #gamedev #indiegame #solodev #zelda 1204
Solodeveling @solodeveling.bsky.social · 31/05/2026Early access alert! I've shared a pre-alpha test build (Win/Linux) with a select few. Now, all ears... will they hate or love what I'm trying to create? Wish me luck and good feedback! Hit me up if you feel brave enough to also give it go ;) #solodev #gamedev #unity #blender #nervous 082
Solodeveling @solodeveling.bsky.social · 30/05/2026Update time! Been busy with new additions: accessibility, achievements, multilingual support & mod support! And of course, lots of work on the actual game, but that's better shown with another video soon :) #solodev #gamedev #accessibility #unity #modsupport 051
Reposted by SolodevelingMazeStalker @mazestalker.bsky.social · 23/05/2026Playing some games for inspiration, I decided to add more bushes to cut to the underground areas. I think that adds a necessary level of interactions. #gamedev #indiegame #solodev 0322
Reposted by SolodevelingMazeStalker @mazestalker.bsky.social · 14/05/2026I'm happy to anounce that my demo on Steam has been updated to V 0.1.1 with a lot of features that should always have been there! I would appreciate any feedback here or on Discord! #Mazestalker #gamedev #indiegame #solodev 0142
Reposted by SolodevelingMazeStalker @mazestalker.bsky.social · 12/05/2026Click of a button and my game is top down, for free. I want to design isometric of course, but it makes me smile how easy this would be! 082
Reposted by SolodevelingMazeStalker @mazestalker.bsky.social · 09/05/2026After years of restraint about adding new enemies, I'm going all out right now. I have a LOT of new areas to cover then what was originally intended, so I also need a bigger cast! #gamedev #indiegame #solodev #unity3d 0194
Solodeveling @solodeveling.bsky.social · 10/05/2026Just added some much-needed variety to my indie game's weather system - now your settlements will get pummeled by hurricanes and snowed under in blizzards! Feeling way more immersive :) Of course, there is also a just sunshine or a nice drizzle! #Blender3d #Unity3D #SoloDev 070
Reposted by SolodevelingMazeStalker @mazestalker.bsky.social · 08/05/2026I dedicated some time to another nonsensical feature, can you spot what's new? #mazestalker #gamedev #indiegame 072
Reposted by SolodevelingMazeStalker @mazestalker.bsky.social · 05/05/2026I really like slowly reviving an old area. The workload would be unrealistic by myself, but my past self inherited me a lot of substance to work with! #gamedev #unity3d #solodev #retrogaming 0222
Solodeveling @solodeveling.bsky.social · 04/05/2026Catastrophic failure in world gen modifications. A week of work wasted and rolled back to last "stable" commit. Anyone else have days where 'try again' feels like a better option? Learned the hard way: use experimental branches to save your sanity #solodev #gamedev #unity 091
Reposted by SolodevelingMazeStalker @mazestalker.bsky.social · 02/05/2026I reached a point where I really needed to write an enemy that has the potential to kill me. I think the fight flows quite well and the enemy will add some much needed tension! #gamedev #mazestalker #indiegame #screenshotsaturday #solodev 0185
Reposted by SolodevelingMazeStalker @mazestalker.bsky.social · 01/05/2026Fixed the lighting, I updated a lot of my core shaders with new features (like cloud shadows on grass and tons of idiotic little details like that). Next is finally the fun part: Updating the geometry! #gamedev #indiegame #solodev 1182
Reposted by SolodevelingMazeStalker @mazestalker.bsky.social · 27/04/2026Now that we have a functional death, it's time to build things that actually KILL the player! Fun times! #gamedev #indiegame #solodev #unity3d #landstalker 0187

Reposted by SolodevelingMazeStalker @mazestalker.bsky.social · 25/04/2026Those who played my demo had to endure a couple of oddities. No settings, dieing if broken and... no saving? Well I'm on the case for all of these! #gamedev #screenshotsaturday #indiegame #solodev #unity3d 093

Reposted by SolodevelingMazeStalker @mazestalker.bsky.social · 21/04/2026This is one of those features that have existed on my head for 3 or so years. A lot of thought and finetuning has been done mentally before I set up a single line of code. #gamedev #solodev #indiegame #unity3d 0194
