Broken Games

I decided to split the game into parts. Cramming everything into one scene was just too dumb 😊 The first part is almost ready — needs polishing and fine-tuning. Now sharing some screenshots 🎮 #gamedev #indiedev #puzzle #horror #indiegame #ScreenshotSaturday

Working on atmosphere and immersion 🕯️ Thinking about replacing the candle with a flashlight In a dark room, a flickering flame is one thing… but a flashlight beam revealing things you’d rather not see is something else entirely 👀 #gamedev #indiedev #puzzle #horror #indiegame

Thanks for 30 followers! I was surprised that anyone would be interested in what I'm doing 😊 Thank you! #gamedev #indiedev #puzzle #horror #indiegame

@AlteredAlma What fucking awesome pixel art!! I really want to make a level like that myself!

This is a game where landing is optional. But Surviving is not! #pixelart #ドット絵 #IndieGame #metroidvania

Refined the interactive system 🕯️ Items now have an extra action when you hold them in your hands. Seems like a small thing… but examining objects can lead to unexpected surprises. What surprises will you find in the dark? 👀 #gamedev #indiedev #puzzle #horror #indiegame

@PiusSunday2587 Looks fantastic❤️

I added my hand drawn art into my game and as a test it feels cool #ScreenshotSaturday #GamingArt #IndieGame

Take 2 🫠 Read about optimization. “Just switch to URP,” they said 🤔 Tried it… Migrated to URP, saw the mess, and went back to HDRP. Future me’s problem 🙂 Worth the suffering for better visuals? 💀 #gamedev #indiedev #puzzle #horror #indiegame #ScreenshotSaturday

@backtothedawn QTE for a striptease? That's wild)

"What kind of game is this?" yes 😭 #pixelart #gamedev #indiedev #madewithunity #unity #rpg #furry #prisonbreak #ドット絵 #Steam #pcgame

@JapanVolt This is so atmospheric and creepy.

@starhoundstudio I tried doing it purely through code, but due to the specifics of player control, the player could throw important key items through textures — and that's not allowed

@BrokenGamesO That's the genre's sweet spot, pure kinematic feels floaty, pure physics feels janky. The hybrid gives you player agency with environmental resistance. Best of both worlds for examination-heavy gameplay.

Made an object interaction system 🔧 Player can drag, rotate, and poke lots of objects 🎮 #gamedev #indiedev #puzzle #horror #indiegame #gameplay #unity

@starhoundstudio Both. I move the object directly with code. I use physics so the object can collide with other things while the player is holding it

@BrokenGamesO "Drag, rotate, and poke" is the perfect verb set for investigative horror....the tactile interaction is half the immersion. The candle-and-documents staging is already telling a story. Are you running on physics or kinematic for the held objects?

Still making puzzles 📚 Too lazy to place books on the shelf manually — so I did it with nodes 😅 #gamedev #indiedev #puzzle #horror #indiegame #3D #blender

The game is called "I Have No Change". It's an atmospheric game where you're a vendor in a kiosk. The game is imbued with a sense of something familiar and dear. It evoked that feeling in me. There's a playtest on Steam right now. #gamedev #indiegame #indiedev

@AadzeNomad I think it will be possible to find a solution, but it seems to me it will take more time

@BrokenGamesO I wonder if the answer can be found with trial and error... or is it a rare word that can be found by connecting clues... 🤔

Still making puzzles 🔥 Next up — letters and locks 🧩🔐 #gamedev #indiedev #puzzle #horror #indiegame

@clemmygames Awesome combat!

this indie developer is making a dark fantasy action rogue-lite drawing upon the Wizard of Oz, so here's a look at some of the lighting powers in the game. It's called The Ashen OZ, have you wishlisted the game?

3D isn't my strong suit, but I try to make everything myself. Here are my cylinders for code locks 🔐 "Meow" 🐱 #gamedev #indiedev #puzzle #horror #indiegame #ScreenshotSaturday #3D #blender

Started with 2 rooms, the game grew — now there are 5 rooms (One is still missing) #gamedev #indiedev #puzzle #horror #indiegame #ScreenshotSaturday

And here's the second part of that same puzzle 🧩 Two halves — one puzzle. How's the connection? #gamedev #indiedev #puzzle #horror #indiegame
