Just dripping in style, genuinely sold on playing it even though traditional MOBAs aren’t my thing

Deadlock has some of the most wonderful UI and character presentation I’ve ever seen youtu.be/3Dq5iYw0TWQ?...

By popular demand (me, I demanded it!!) you can now kick enemies through windows/into breakables #gamedev #indiedev #UE5

Getting to a point where it’s really fun to mess with the AI in silly ways! #gamedev #indiedev #UE5

Just found out Geowizard who does the lovely ‘cross this place in a straight line’ videos has kind of openly voiced support for Reform. Wtf dude

Immediately looks better with the forward movement and better screenshake! Getting there! (The combo can be done quicker, just doing it slow to demo 😎)

Haha yeah, one of their first things I added in was diving destroying breakables! Gotta make diving through windows cool of course 😎

Will eventually add a sprinting melee attack that instantly knocks them off their feet, and have it so diving into them knocks them over too!

Still need to add a bunch of things like forward movement, camera work and specific impact sounds but it’s fun already!

Have finally got a very rudimentary 3-hit melee combo for another non-lethal option! #gamedev #indiedev #UE5

Very funny you can see the absolute void in my GitHub submissions for my stealth project in the summer because it’s been actually nice weather in the UK lol

The Minecraft x Superman DLC is out today! I did a bunch of design work on this - primarily the LuthorCorp mission - when I was freelancing with Oreville Studios!

Final product looks great 😻

@kronok.bsky.social has managed to create with Scythe so far, easily the best UE5 level design tool around.

It’s so good I have purchased a bunch of 1 month’s Patreon access to Scythe for other Designers to try! Please get in touch if you’d like to try it out!

Showing a little more of the clipping tool to get you thinking about the possibilities. (4/6)

Scythe is still heavily in development, but you can get the latest build on my Patreon as I develop it: scytheeditor.com

(It'll be a paid plugin on Fab on release)

Special thanks to @rms80.bsky.social for guiding me in the right direction when trying to figure this new update out. (6/6)

Clipping Tool!
If you've ever used a classic level editor, you've used something like this. Cuts through stuff (multiple meshes or just the selected face(s) of a mesh). Once again, dynamic mesh operators are the real winner here. Super fun to play with. (3/6)

Mirror Tool!
I created a new "drag out a line" mechanic that acts as the mirror plane. You can manipulate the points or drag the whole mirror around. What I love about the mirror dynamic mesh operator in UE is you can have merge the meshes together along the mirror line. (2/6)

My debug menu has had an upgrade! I can now see all the most important player stats/info I need, along with 3D widgets for enemies. And I built a simple noise visualisation tool!

Hopefully all these things should help me better fix and identify issues more easily!

It’s been a while! My focus on returning to this project in the short term is fixing bugs and improving my debugging! #gamedev #indiedev #UE5
