I'm considering making a fake finger that clips to my phone and ruins my pictures, saving me the trouble of having to use my real finger.

Had to add a rest to recover all party member HP mechanic to the game.

I've been playing through morrowind recently and delighted at how weird the world is compared to Oblivion and Skyrim. All good games, but morrowind has that feeling of not having had the rough edges sanded off.

I'm working on the overworld today and I ended up with more islands than I originally planned but I had to have enough places to explore and hide things. 19 locations in all.

Did you guys know I made an infinite doom-like? It was Doom meets Zombies Ate My Neighbors and made just for the love of mindlessly shooting weird monsters. kappawumpus.itch.io/killspiracy-tv #indiegame #indiedev #doom #fps #boomershooter

It's still WIP, but this rotating tower effect is mostly solved. It was a pain to get working, but I'm very happy with it.

I added little birds to the game today. They fly away when you get to close, but not if you stay still. #gamedev #indiedev

I'm really happy with how this dynamic fog effect turned out!
I'm working in gamemaker studio without shaders so this stuff is kinda like a puzzle I get to figure out.

A shout out to all the awesome devs out there who are working hard on some of the best, coolest, or most beautiful parts of their game but can't share them publicly for story/spoiler/other reasons.

It will be amazing when the players finally play it, I can't wait!

Sometimes you just need to make another huge animated sprite to make something read the right way, I needed the player to see that the oil flow was stopping.
