The merchant’s eyes shimmered like coins at the bottom of a deep well as he named his price, something you’d never owned, yet somehow felt the loss the moment you agreed... Concept art from Hand of God, a project by me, @RatCasket and @puppiesandanime (author of the caption).

You awaken on a white shore, unsure what you’ve lost. A mockup for something eerie I've been cooking with @RatCasket and @puppiesandanime

I'm gone, y'all.

I really need a job lol

Was looking at job postings this morning and this one seemed a little odd.

Working on better dungeon generation. This will allow us to do more Zelda-like dungeons in Hand of God. Basically what this is doing is taking handmade dungeon rooms, and randomly placing them in a way that makes sense for progression. Ensuring keys exist before locked doors, etc

Turning this into a real game with @fell_martins

@fell_martins @Estirdalin @ben_304 I haven't played Dark Cloud 2 in a long time, so I don't remember too much about the dungeons, but in Dark Cloud 1 its a series of empty rooms connected by empty hallways with randomly placed enemies and items on the floor. Not great.

@Estirdalin @ben_304 @RatCasket thank you fam, for the dungeon generation/exploration question I'll let the man himself, Rat "RatCasket" Casket answer it

The Hand of God rests peacefully ~ nothing to worry about. A mockup for something special I've been cooking with @RatCasket As Nathan describes it, the game will be "like Dark Cloud, but with good dungeon diving".

Anybody know where I can get free, or cheap, rigs and animations for animals? I'm learning Unreal and I need to shoot at an animal.

RIP TO THIS BAND

TWO interactions? Cmon now. Bsky is trouncing you guys over here.

I wrote a story about playing video games with my dad, and many years later, my son. @RatCasket/cfe7f77ea2d1" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener">medium.com/@RatCasket/cfe…

Finished the major parts of new inventory today. Holding items gives you bonuses. No equipping required. Your build is what you carry.

watch me eat a sword and then evaporate a wolf. also someone asked if you have to sit still while you drop items and the answer is no. sound on please.

very very early stages of this prototype hint i'm referring to it as 'Scramble'........... hopefully that + the animation style are both fun little indicators of the direction i'm going in here

Animating and implementing a tackle today. What do you think?

Head Shoulders Knuckles Floor by Lobby Boxer is out now 💝

Just called my dog Trillbo Swaggins for some reason. It’s like I wasn’t myself, and the voice of someone else came from my lips.
