Why is it so complicated to manage button states in UMG? All I want is to work with different button styles depending on different input focus.

The system feels so outdated. Have they really abandoned it and will be making a move to Common UI? #unreal #gamedev

To dither, or not to dither.
That is the question.

Grateful for the spotlight @survivalhorrors.bsky.social 🙏
Let’s welcome @inthebelly.bsky.social to Bluesky!
They’re creating In the Belly of the Night, a survival horror where you play as Freya, alone and pregnant in rural Türkiye.
Survival horror is built on vulnerability, and Freya’s story is perfect for the genre.

I’ve been keeping this close for a long time.

In the Belly of the Night is a classic survival horror game about fear, motherhood and the myths that refuse to disappear.

Wishlist and share with your friends. You know it helps a tremendous amount.

Massive shoutout to Cássio Lima for the UE5-Blender-Rig.
github.com/cjmlima/UE5-...

It’s saved me sooo much time. Finally a solid rig for animating Manny in Blender. Been searching for something elegant like this forever.

Oh right, I should probably show you what this game actually is at some point. Working hard to bring all the pieces together for my Steam page. It’s like the game is about to step out of the shadows, and that is scary in itself.

Made a project schedule. Six months later, it looked like hieroglyphs. I’d just been going with my gut anyway.

So I binned it, rewrote my priorities, and my left brain went: 'At last, we speak the same language once again'. #gamedev #horror #screenshotsaturday

Spending 3 whole days on a simple pushing mechanic really didn't do so well for the old impostor syndrome.

Had a blast working on this with @tapes.club. Give it a go if you fancy a boogie with aliens on the dark side of the moon. #gamedev #gmtk #gmtk2025

Money is getting / going to be a bit tight these coming months, so I'm open to picking up some freelance work , if you have enjoyed my work in the past, and know of an opportunity let's set something up!

I can't stop decorating this house. It keeps pulling me back in because every detail tells a story. Handwoven carpets, Bodrum stonework, ornate wooden furnishings.

How do you weave cultural authenticity into your environments? #gamedev #gameart #turkish #mesopotamian

Big studios have really mastered the 'roguelike' genre. No matter how much employees progress, they always get randomly laid off.

Jesus why must everything be a deck builder?

Solo gamedev is freedom. No meetings, no bosses—just you building worlds on your own terms.

It's also isolation. No feedback loops, no safety nets, no one to catch your burnout—just you, chasing perfection.

It’s you versus the void and coffee’s your only coworker who shows up every day. #gamedev
