@HendronJake @IndieGameJoe Its a see who likes and who doesn't

@NorthfallGame @IndieGameJoe Yeah this is weird? Very alike

These indie devs are making a 1930s-inspired open-world survival game. - Farm crops, manage sanity & temperature - Every animation is hand-drawn - Survive, craft, and command creatures It's called Kalit. Would you play this?

@prestonjbyrne Im from the UK and i think the UK is ok, with everything,,, I agree that they stopped me talking to other developers on Itch.io.. I agree that they did the next thing - please don't make me the 0.07%.... i agree they allow me to get drunk but still - FTUK

This is funny: Ofcom is now including a link at the bottom of its press releases to the UK's arguments about jurisdiction over American companies. Conspicuously absent: a link to the First Amendment. When it comes to enforcing things on U.S. soil, Americans get a vote.

Just heard an Akon banger from 2009 and it slapped me silly… mostly because of how fast tech moved since then. but #UnrealEngine still shouting “U N R E A L” and taking longer to build than trying to spell Akons full name.

@IndieGameJoe Thinking about it - I don't think it's a "game" as such, much more of a concept. I really think the idea now is to gauge people's response to concept ideas and check if it garners enough attention. AI can make concepts in seconds - just see which one blows up, and then build it

@NorthfallGame different game by a different studio

@Bemesda @IndieGameJoe @Bemesda The exact same hands, the exact same style --- Dig your way out of jail and then survive in an open world 🤔😅 I did a bit of research and it seems that a few top models have just released a new style: A few more passes on this model, and i can almost have the same....

@NorthfallGame @IndieGameJoe No it’s clearly very different

Indie dev scope creep be like: Week 1: "It's a simple platformer" Month 3: "We added a crafting system" Month 6: "There's now a full economy simulation" Month 9: "The game is a MMORPG" Just. Ship. The. Game. #indiedev #gamedev #indiegamedev

Episode #1 of "From Nothing to Survival" is now live it includes: 1. Setup 2. Input 3. Playable character Next episode is where it starts hurting: health, hunger, thirst. YouTube: youtu.be/FbzYQCrg-dY #gamedev #solodev #FollowFriday

Episode #1 will be live soon... Im still learning Video editing - 8hrs of editing and I'm knackered, they must be an easier way to do this 🤣 x.com/NorthfallGame/… #indiedev #gamedev #solodev

@CodeRed_dev I just respond back after the first nice DM with: "Not interested in what you selling that's if your selling anything, if your here to chat then ----- " I then answer the original question... But no-one seems to respond to me 🫠

I hate when a person DMs me pretending to like my game only to try to sell a service to me. Happens like every month.

This #FollowFriday I’m still deep in voice-overs + learning DaVinci Resolve… and honestly my mind is blown 🤯 Who else is building or learning something new right now?

@CGS_indie Hey 👋, Yes I am: @NorthfallGame" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener">youtube.com/@NorthfallGame

@NorthfallGame Are you on YouTube?

I’m building a small game using my survival system and turning the whole thing into a dev series. From zero → playable: Health, hunger, thirst UI + feedback Expandable systems (stamina, oxygen, etc.) No fluff, just actual implementation. First video soon #gamedev #indiedev

@travismkunze @travismkunze Totally agree - multiplayer syncing is a pain!! Also security? Don’t even get me started 😂 The Survival System exposes endpoints via BP, so replication can be added via Blueprints if the devs require. But my game is SP, so no replication needed 🤣

@NorthfallGame So far I'd say multiplayer syncing, granted my game isnt a multiplayer game, but just looking at what it takes, its a lot of work.

UE5 devs - quick question: What’s harder: hunger, health regen, or multiplayer syncing? Just launched: Northfall Survival Component System producthunt.com/products/north… Reply with your pain point - I’ll show how this solves it. #gamedev #ue5 #indiedev #ShowcaseThursday

Video 1 of the survival series is IN THE CAN! ✅ Movement + setup done… Now for the *real* boss fight: editing + voice-over 😅 Next: Setting up the Plugin - this is where it actually becomes a survival game.. What’s the ONE survival mechanic you think most games get wrong? 👇

@madchickengames I do love the look of the HUD your going for - a dark grunge look... Id also look at adding a small blink/flash on the stats when getting low - if you haven't already... Try and get the players attention especially if there is too much happening on screen...

@NorthfallGame That’s a really good point 👍 readability in quick situations is key. And thanks! I’m going for a darker, more survival/horror vibe overall.

Trying to find the right player stats UI. Which one would YOU pick? Top / Middle / Bottom #gamedev #indiedev #survivalgame #gamedevlog #gameui

If you want to play Cold Horizon… hope you're stocking up on RAM 😅 Disclaimer: Unreal is innocent. This is entirely self-inflicted chaos... I'm running an extensive RAM application at the same time 🤣

@Nestach @3rdEchoSounds Loving the atmospheric look/colours of this 😍 Looks amazing!!

@3rdEchoSounds Hello! The new crystal can now spawn from defeated enemies and be collected, their movement needs some more work. Thank you for hosting and have a great #WishlistWednesday! x.com/Nestach/status…
