For this week's #screenshotSaturday - continuing to work on weather effects for Alone: Shattered Tribes I am trying to avoid going into the snow-shader rabbithole for such a tiny feature - I think a bit of snow on the ground is enough #indiedev #indiegame

Super Llama Games @superllamagames.bsky.social · 15/08/2026

For this week's #screenshotSaturday I decided to work a bit more on Alone: Shattered Tribes, adding some features I had wanted to do but didn't have the time for... starting with the weather. #indiedev #indiegame

Super Llama Games @superllamagames.bsky.social · 11/07/2026

For today's #screenshotSaturday - working on a trailer for Terra Nautica. It's still very pre-alpha, but it's almost ready to have some assumptions tested #indiedev #indiegame

Super Llama Games @superllamagames.bsky.social · 27/06/2026

I was kinda distracted and totally missed that the Steam Summer Sale started. Bit late to the party, but better late than never. #indiedev

Super Llama Games @superllamagames.bsky.social · 30/05/2026

For this week's #screenshotSaturday - spent a couple of weeks making the ship designer work using keyboard only, or a controller. Just about done. Wasn't as difficult as I expected, although I'm not proud of some of the code #indiedev #indiegame

Super Llama Games @superllamagames.bsky.social · 21/05/2026

So, my game was stuck at 9 Steam Reviews for...ever. And it's very important to reach at least 10. A couple of days ago, someone leaves a 4 word negative review. On one hand... rather upsetting, but on the other hand... 10 reviews! Yaay! #indiedev #indiegame

041

Super Llama Games @superllamagames.bsky.social · 02/05/2026

Slowly getting there in this week's #screenshotSaturday Moving away from the very obvious placeholder blocks and into something a bit nicer. After that, it'll be time to continue on a larger vertical slice #indiedev #indiegame

062

Super Llama Games @superllamagames.bsky.social · 25/04/2026

For this week's #screenshotSaturday - my very very in progress game about piloting a ship and blowing up enemy ships is gradually getting a glowup. Still needs quite a bit of work, but I'll get there... #indiedev #indiegame

073

Super Llama Games @superllamagames.bsky.social · 28/03/2026

For this week's #screenshotSaturday - been working on the levels for Terra Nautica - which enemy ship types appear for each wave (there's a large degree of randomness) Now I just need to test it out, and it'll be ready to share #indiedev #indiegame

042

Super Llama Games @superllamagames.bsky.social · 07/03/2026

For this week's #screenshotSaturday - continued to work on Terra Nautica. Still very very much in the concept stage, but I have the game loop working now finally :) Now just to flesh it out somewhat, and it'll be ready for validation. youtu.be/tl5G1e_9EWw #indiegame #indiedev

Tomorrow, if all goes right, I'll be releasing a small free update for Alone: Shattered Tribes which will include the ability to place certain decorations outside. So here's a pic for #screenshotSaturday #indiedev #indiegame

031

Super Llama Games @superllamagames.bsky.social · 17/01/2026

For this week's #screenshotSaturday... Following a fan's suggestion to make torches available to be constructed outdoors, I'm taking it a couple of steps further and adding a whole bunch of outdoor decorations. Like the benches, flowers, and banners seen below. #indiedev #gamedev

082

Super Llama Games @superllamagames.bsky.social · 10/01/2026

For this week's #screenshotSaturday. A player suggested that you should be able to put torches outdoors, so I am very happy to oblige. I'm adding a decoration section to the build menu, so in the next version of Alone, players can add the aforementioned torches, and more... #indiedev #indiegame

Super Llama Games @superllamagames.bsky.social · 03/01/2026

For this week's #screenshotSaturday - working on Terra Nautica - I've improved the look of the water, and continued to work on different sized hulls - including the static fortress. I'm soon ready to release the 0.0.1 preview :) #indiedev #indiegame

0111

Super Llama Games @superllamagames.bsky.social · 27/12/2025

For this week's #screenshotSaturday - been working on my new game (still very much in concept stage) - specifically allowing ships to be designed based on different hulls - trading weapon/armour space for speed for instance. #indiedev #indiegame

For this week's #screenshotSaturday - been playing around with the game lighting a bit. Now the Cursed Crypts look more mysterious... #indiedev #indiegame

082

Super Llama Games @superllamagames.bsky.social · 14/06/2025

This week I decided to redo how runes work since the original plan wasn't so fun. Now they collect charges based on defeating specific enemies, and then you can invoke a bonus which you can recharge and boost by continuing to defeat even more... #screenshotSaturday #indiedev #indiegame

041

Super Llama Games @superllamagames.bsky.social · 31/05/2025

For today's #screenshotSaturday - Alone's next milestone will include runes which can be attached to weapons to give a powerful boost. And what better way to find them then by looting them off this special room which appears in certain, dangerous levels of the crypt? #indiedev #indiegame

Super Llama Games @superllamagames.bsky.social · 30/05/2025

Yesterday I tried to find some simple arcade-type mobile game to install to while away a few minutes. Yet all the games now have limited energy, premium currency, temporary boosts, and excuses to interrupt you and get you to commit to regular play. When did things become so toxic...

Super Llama Games @superllamagames.bsky.social · 03/05/2025

For this week's #screenshotSaturday - continuing to expand the new terrain code to work for the missions and the forest. Also went with a brighter looking grass texture, think I'm getting somewhere finally :) #indiedev #indiegame

063

Super Llama Games @superllamagames.bsky.social · 26/04/2025

I was finally convinced that terrain was the way to go instead of trying to make the square tiles look good. Looking much better now I think - still a work in progress though - need to add some proper patchy grass and some other things. #screenshotSaturday #indiedev #indiegame

Super Llama Games @superllamagames.bsky.social · 19/04/2025

For this week's #screenshotSaturday - been trying to make the map a bit more attractive. Since it's procedurally generated and tile-based, it's a bit harder than I thought. Still, I seem to be getting somewhere. #indiedev #indiegame

Super Llama Games @superllamagames.bsky.social · 15/03/2025

For this week's #screenshotSaturday... The next milestone will see some large Trader changes coming. For a start, they will always bring one exotic good, they will have better quality items for sale, and slots will be limited by your upgrades #indiedev

A screenshot from a game. The player character is seated in front of a trader, inside a trade post building.

An interface is open which shows a list of items which are available to be bought.

I don't post Dev Diaries as often as I would like, and probably not as often as I should... But at least this one should be interesting enough www.indiedb.com/games/alone4... #indiedev #indiegame

Alone - Runes - A look at Runes news

The next milestone for Alone is called "Rune" - and in this dev diary we'll dive into what they are and how they will work.

Super Llama Games @superllamagames.bsky.social · 01/03/2025

For this week's #screenshotSaturday, Alone's next milestone is called "Rune", so I'm working on well, Runes. Runes can be embedded in weapons and can give a whole range of bonuses depending on the rune. Embedding them involves a ritual in the shrine... #indiedev

A screenshot from a game. The player character is bowed in front of an altar with her arms outstretched. There are geometric patterns around the altar.

The interface shows that a copper mace has a rune embedded called "Goblin Bane", and shows the description of the effect.

Super Llama Games @superllamagames.bsky.social · 01/02/2025

For this week's #screenshotSaturday... With the undead having received some new units last time, it's time for nature to start showing its teeth (heh) The forests will be getting just a bit more dangerous in the next milestone of Alone. #indiedev #indiegame

A screenshot from a game. The main character is in a forest. The forest has wolves surrounding the player.

The player has found a bear cave. The bear is advancing on the player.

Super Llama Games @superllamagames.bsky.social · 18/01/2025

For this week's #screenshotSaturday, I'm hard at work at Alone's next milestone... Starting with giving the everpunished in the crypt a bit of a makeover, some of them have crossbows now... #indiedev #indiegame

Hello everyone :) Almost ready for Alone's major milestone release next week. So for this #screenshotSaturday - defending the fort against waves of goblins. Including one with a suspiciously large barrel of explosives. Probably shouldn't let them get too close to the walls...

A screenshot from a game. A wooden motte and bailey type fortress is under attack by goblins at night. The player character, and his companion are defending it. The companion is loosing an arrow at one of the goblins.

One of the goblins is dragging a big red barrel.

For this week's #screenshotSaturday... the first location of the final mission. The goblin leader has been tracked to this ancient tower. It is up to our hero to fight their way across the three levels, and free the lands from her terror. #indiedev #indiegame

A screenshot from a game. The map is circular and built around a large red crystal. The player is in a guard room, there are tables, chairs, an upturned table, some boxes and weapons.

The player is fighting goblins in this room. There is a closed door between this room and the other rooms.

The other rooms are barely visible, but include a foundry, barracks, and tavern.

Super Llama Games @superllamagames.bsky.social · 19/11/2024

Working on the new trailer for Alone this week - since I should have a major update ready to release soon. So just taking snippets of interesting video to stitch together. Like this failed attempt to sneak into a goblin camp. #indiedev

Super Llama Games @superllamagames.bsky.social · 16/11/2024

For this week's #screenshotsaturday ... This week I've been working on the last round of testing before I officially announce the release of the next milestone of Alone. Shown here is part of the fifth mission - where our hero must defend a battering ram as he storms a goblin-held fortress.
