The #bigwalk rig is coming along, legs and arms both posing relatively accurately to the game. #blender

I was planning on releasing the blend file with the fully functional ‘rig’ when it’s done if that’s okay. I haven’t gotten the legs working for example.

Your logo stuff is great, really surprising it’s in a rasterized image editor!

Ever notice a suspicious looking area and wanted to mark it on your map for later? Or maybe just wanted to doodle a bit? Well now you can, with the map marker 2000™!* *(May or may not just be a regular pencil) #screenshotsaturday #indiegame #indiedev #monogame

Really fun idea for immersive UI!

Yes! I am wanting to look into recreating the radio from the game as well, but that would a large undertaking.

This would definetly be possible, you’d need to find a stronger ball, a 3d print wouldn’t cut it I imagine!

Red ball with black loop up top, modeled after the buoy object in the game Big Walk. The buoy has an internal light, making it glow red.

It uses an IKEA usb touch light (there’s a button on the bottom) so when you press down on the top it toggles the light. It’s wired so no kicking sadly

Bill Illiard's Pool 3000! Since Diora's release, I started on this new Billiards game. This game uses a similar 3D engine to Diora, with amazing 3D ball rotation and pool table graphics! #playdate

The receipt printer camera is working! curious to see how it goes, I'm cautiously optimistic. zacharys.dev/projects/pri... #maker #programming

A cool bonus with these kinds of cameras is that there’s nothing stopping you from focusing them extremely close for easy macro shots!

Modified a cheap UVC camera to remove the hardwired cable and added a USB-C port. Most likely going to be for the receipt printer!

It is amazing for Diora to be featured so prominently in Cranko! #5. They are hard to get in the US but the creator, @cranknockout.bsky.social , was able to personally send one to me, really excited about it! cranknockout.com #playdate
