Thanks to a full rewrite of our geometry shaders to compute shaders, #DERELIKT finally supports two (!) levels of dynamic subdivision! (It also finally runs on Apple Silicon again) I had almost given up on this distinct effect, but now we have it, just like the best PS1 games 😎

I just saw #DERELIKT has an extended gameplay trailer on the GameTrailers YT channel! GT might not be what it was back in my day, but it's still cool 😀 I loved watching GT Reviews, Screwattack, AVGN and Final Bosman on there... ah the memories. youtu.be/921ZRBcA3L0?...

I was getting annoyed by those hardware price hikes until I remembered all I play is PS1 games on my Vita anyway, so I'm good 👌

DERELIKT joins the Hyperstrange family! A PS1-styled sci-fi FPS from @visuwyg.bsky.social, where eldritch horrors meet immersive storytelling, puzzles, inventory management, and one guy sticking his hands where they absolutely should not be - then having to shoot his way through the mess he made.

Inspired by TWINE on PS1, I added oldschool lensflares to #DERELIKT. Because Unitys default lensflares aren't supported by HPSXRP, these are custom made and extra authentic. ✨

True story*: When our engineers working on #DERELIKT went to E3 2000 and saw how impressive "The World is not Enough" looks on N64 - they coaxed some extra juice out of the ol' Plustation and upgraded our bullet casings from Alien Resurrection to TWINE quality. 😎

Coming up with a death animation for an eldritch orb from another dimension was surprisingly tricky... now, what sound should it make? 🎈🤔 #DERELIKT

While I can almost dig the mishmash 2006-era HD-ish aesthetic, this remaster illustrates pretty well my opinion that graphics needs to be stylistically coherent to be aestetically pleasing. Hence why #DERELIKT looks how it looks.

Anyone going to Gamescom? 👀 I just decided to go on a whim (Wed & Thu) - since it could be the only time I get to go as a developer! If you are a publisher, let's meet! 😀 I might have a fresh build of #DERELIKT with me...

I created a high poly version of the APC in #DERELIKT in Blender. Its for a pre-rendered CGI cutscene, so it was important to find the right balance between quality and 90s 3D jank.🤪

I cut a window into Collier's room in LVL 08 - so you don't have to talk to a locked door anymore. I also spent a million hours getting the lighting just right so I hope ya'll appreciate it 🫠 #DERELIKT

Visuwyg @visuwyg.bsky.social · 06/07/2025
All lighting in #DERELIKT is painted by hand using vertex color. (Sometimes I bake lights to vertex color, but I always touch it up by hand.) It's the most fun part of the process, as it really transforms a scene!

To finish my story (so far): While I secured funding to finish development, I am currently self-publishing #DERELIKT. That means I can freely show you the dev process!🔍 But it also means we currently have no Publisher assisting with marketing or ports.🥲

Work on #DERELIKT essentially restarted in December 2024. While we could reuse most assets, we started from scratch on the code side. The whole story is even crazier - WAY crazier - but due to legal stuff I can't go into more detail. 😅 Things are still kinda shaky, but we'll make it somehow! ✌️

Visuwyg @visuwyg.bsky.social · 01/07/2025
I had nothing in January 2024. Instead of giving up, I wrote to more publishers. Over a hundred in total. It took a full year, but I managed to secure new funding for #DERELIKT. The budget was smaller - I could only afford a team of three. But we'd make it work somehow. (cont.)

Visuwyg @visuwyg.bsky.social · 25/06/2025
So there I was - unemployed, with nothing but my old #DERELIKT demo from 2022. I couldn't continue working on the full version because the code belonged to the company. I had no team and no money. (cont.)

Visuwyg @visuwyg.bsky.social · 22/06/2025
Alas, making #DERELIKT at that place was not to last: Remember the big industry layoffs in 2024? Me too - I was there! Our parent company cut costs and projects got cancelled, including us. A ton of employees were let go, eventually including me and my team.😥(cont.)

Visuwyg @visuwyg.bsky.social · 21/06/2025
In February 2023 I was offered a job at a big game studio. I got a team, and two years to create #DERELIKT. I quit my job and became a professional game developer. Talk about being thrown in the deep end! My literal dream came true. (cont.) Wishlist DERELIKT: store.steampowered.com/app/3810510/...

I finished a vertical slice demo of #DERELIKT in late 2022. I worked alone, after my day job, on fridays and weekends. When I was done, I sent out the demo to a few publishers - the worst they could say was no. Amazingly, one said yes. Wishlist DERELIKT: store.steampowered.com/app/3810510/...
