If you already red the last book I mentioned then check this one out! "Game Feel" by Steve Swink 🎮🕹️ It explores why controls feel good — and how to design that intentionally. I just started but it's been pretty eye-opening so far. Might be worth a look! #gamedev #gamedesign #IndieDev

Been reading "The Art of Game Design" by Jesse Schell 🎮📘 It’s thoughtful, practical, and full of questions that really shift your perspective about game design. Might be a good one if you’re into making games! #gamedev #gamedesign #indiedev

Ever barely clip a platform and still land while playing a platformer game? That’s corner correction 🪄 — a tiny nudge that pulls you up instead of letting you fall 👣 Subtle, but it makes platformers avoid frustration🎮✨ #gamedev #platformers #IndieDev #GameDesign

🕹️ Ever heard of Coyote Time in game dev? It’s a tiny delay (0.1–0.2s) after leaving a platform where jumps still register — named after cartoon coyotes who hang in mid-air before falling. 🐾 💡 Adds fairness and smoother controls Use it. Players will thank you. #GameDev #IndieDev #IndieGameDev

Odyssey Narrative Game –Dev Update! I was about to release it… but decided to take it one step further. To deepen player engagement, Odi’s perception will now shift based on your choices. This means the story changes depending on how he sees things — not just what happens. #GameDev #IndieDev

Just wrapped up a City Builder project to dive into the genre using Unreal Engine! It was a great exercise in learning the core systems behind simulation and resource management. If you have any advice or feedback, I'd love to hear it! #GameDev #IndieDev #IndieGameDev

Heyy! I'm working on a narrative Odyssey-inspired videogame using Inky! Here’s a sneak peek at the flowchart 👀✨ (Yes, Zeus had to be there for divine inspiration — artwork by the amazing Neal Illustrator!) #gamedev #indiedev #gamedesign

I’d like to share with you a layout glimpse of the level I’m designing for the game we’re developing: Elysian Siege.🛠️ This is the layout stage, a 2D view used to plan the full flow of the level. At this point, I was focusing on pacing, player choices, and elements placement. #Gamedev #leveldesign

Last year, I began studying game design, and now I’m crafting a 2.5D platformer videogame with my 20 battle-sworn companions. Follow to see how this epic journey unfolds! I’ll be posting progress, design thoughts, and probably some bugs that make me question my life choices. #platformer#GameDesign
