Still a work in progress, but really liking the look of the icicles on this material so far. #substancedesigner #substance #procedural #3dart #texture #gameart #madewithsubstance #art #materialart #PBR #environmentart

Very slowly working on a long overdue update to an old project... #gamedev #gamedevelopment 🧑‍🍳🍪

Just recently I added a #scifi commodity generator to The Merry Manticore in case you need to fill up a cargo bay with "Self-sealing Integrators", "Fixed-function Emitters", and "Updatable Axion Discriminators": merrymanticore.com/generator/scif…

LOAD UP AND ROLL OUT ☄️💥 Go Mecha Ball is NOW AVAILABLE on Steam and #XboxGamePass. 🥎

GO MECHA BALL LANDS TOMORROW ☄️💥

To see whether my "Overreact" engine (overreactjs.github.io) is good enough, I've challenged myself to use it to build a full game, published to Steam, in the next 60 days! I'll update this thread with progress shots each day! 🧵 #gamedev #reactjs #javascript #indiegame #css

The Merry Manticore has *three* new random generators: particle names, fictional elements, and #technobabble! If your starship captain needs some orders to shout, like "Polarize the graviton matrix!" or "Compress the Higgs conveyor!", check out merrymanticore.com!

"Overreact", the open-source React/HTML/CSS game engine I'm building now supports basic 3D stuff. It's still very alpha, and pretty light on documentation, but I'm liking where it's heading! :-D #reactjs #webdevelopment #html #javascript #js #gamedev

Inspired in no small part by Prince Gerard's sword forms from the Neverafter season of @dimension20show the Merry Manticore can now generate names for legendary martial techniques like "The Reindeer Upon a Loaf" and "The Rancid Rubric"! Visit merrymanticore.com for more!

Done the prototype of the 3 scenes : Explore, dive, and investigate. #madewithgodot #godot #gamedev #indiedev

Some minor concerns about the "Ace of Teeth", but still delighted by this.

Bleeding edge open-world technology is right within our grasp #GameMaker #lowpoly #screenshotsaturday #pixelart

The wizards of the cloud people wield strange spells. Make sharp turns to avoid them. #screenshotsaturday #UE5 #metroidvania

You can also find The Merry Manticore on @ProductHunt now if you want to support it there and help it get noticed by more folks! producthunt.com/posts/the-merr… 😄

You can generate your own miserable seasons (along with a whole bunch of other weird ideas) at merrymanticore.com

Another new random generator is available at The Merry Manticore! This time it's Miserable Season names, like these: - The stained spring - The forgotten winter - The autumn of gluttony - The age of bloody purposes - The era of mischief #procgen #TTRPGs #worldbuilding

You can try out the random generators yourself at merrymanticore.com

Here are a few samples for you: - Corporal Josie "Big Mongoose" Nibblemutton - A small keg of brined onion and parsnip - The Imprudent Trouts of Conscience - Small-mouth Kokalench

I've been adding new random generators to The Merry Manticore at a pretty steady clip lately. The most recent is a grim-dark soldier name generator, but you can also generate adventuring party names, dystopian foods, and weird imaginary fish names!

It's been very quiet on the Spinfoam Games front for quite a while, but I did have some time recently so I went ahead and built some new random text generators, just for fun. You can find them at The Merry Manticore: merrymanticore.com
