Solodeveling @solodeveling.bsky.social · 02/10/2026Data visualization saved my sanity... introducing Post-Game-Replays in my project! Inspired by Civilization's "Post-Game-Replay"-Feature. More detailed insights, less spreadsheet hell #solodev #gamedev #Unity #Blender 0104
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 · 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

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
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
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
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
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
Solodeveling @solodeveling.bsky.social · 27/04/2026Terrain Generator tweaks didn't quite go as planned. Weekend struggle: weird island water depths & flat terrain issues :| #solodev #gamedev #unity #blender 082
Solodeveling @solodeveling.bsky.social · 20/04/2026SFX system live! Still tweaking but getting there! Just also added player-controlled event triggers for customizable pauses & time slowdowns #solodev #gamedev #unity #sfx #music 081
Solodeveling @solodeveling.bsky.social · 19/04/2026"Music & SFX: The Unsung Heroes! Still missing my sound system... now I need 350+ licensed sounds or create them myself. Anyone have some go-to resources for me? #solodev #gamedev #unity #blender #music #sfx" 0123
Solodeveling @solodeveling.bsky.social · 15/04/2026Just discovered a bug that created an island paradise! Guess I'll be escaping to my own world instead of Hawaii. Anyone else love finding the fun side of bugs?" #solodev #gamedev #unity #blender 1142
Solodeveling @solodeveling.bsky.social · 11/04/2026Social Media is kinda stressing me. I'm trying to post a video about my little people for the third time now ... :) Fingers crossed! #noob 060
Solodeveling @solodeveling.bsky.social · 11/04/2026Embracing happy accidents! After finishing Settlement Screen, I realized my little folks needed some flair. Added random colors (via code) & accessories (torches, lanterns at night). Now they're starting to feel like villagers, not just cardboard cutouts #solodev #gamedev #unity #blender 0132
Solodeveling @solodeveling.bsky.social · 07/04/2026Early days of my solo dev project! From green land & primitive ship (Jan 13th - Feb 6th) to a (somewhat) real Caravella with flags/banners (Feb 9th). It is three months now since I started the project, and I've been working on it every day. #exhausting #solodev #gamedev #blender #unity 082
Solodeveling @solodeveling.bsky.social · 06/04/2026Exploring The New World just got easier! Discoveries are marked with colorful pin needles on the world map.

Solodeveling @solodeveling.bsky.social · 06/04/2026Join the quest to uncover The Storm's secrets! Meet rival traders, strategists & politicians vying for control. Will you negotiate, outmaneuver or forge alliances? #Solodev #Gamedev #Unity3D #Blender #AgeOfDiscovery 072
Solodeveling @solodeveling.bsky.social · 05/04/2026Protecting a peaceful colony... The perfect setup for trouble! What threats will I unleash? Resources dwindling, alien invasions or something else? Brainstorming now! #solodev #gamedev #unity #blender 0102
Solodeveling @solodeveling.bsky.social · 04/04/2026"Found the issue with my batch export script in Blender and fixed it! All models are now correctly exported with no floaty trees. Lesson learned - always check your pipeline! #solodev #gamedev #Blender #Unity #batchexport #Python" 0112
Solodeveling @solodeveling.bsky.social · 04/04/2026"Progress update! Continent/Island generator is getting good, adding variety & realism to my game world. But, there's a new challenge: Floating Trees Bug. Again. I'm debugging this for two days already -_- #solodev #gamedev #Unity3D #Blender" 0112
Solodeveling @solodeveling.bsky.social · 03/04/2026"New game dev project alert! Exploring, building & trading in a colony-like game inspired by The Patrician & Colonization. Been working on it for 3 months & can't wait to share more progress with you all #solodev #gamedev #Unity #blender" 072
Solodeveling @solodeveling.bsky.social · 03/04/2026"Introducing The Great Storm! In my new game, this event sparks the Age of Discovery in a fictive world. Limited story, plenty of discovery. Who's excited? #solodev #gamedev #TheGreatStorm #AgeOfDiscovery #Blender #Unity" 072
Solodeveling @solodeveling.bsky.social · 03/04/2026Ugh, another tree-mendous issue! Low poly trees imported, but where are they really? Anyone else deal with this weird position offset in Unity? #UnityProbs #GameDevStruggles #LowPolyTrees #IndieDev 080
