Made a test for the game visuals. Making the character with the scene took me 8 days. I will also do a test with a 2.5d (2d hd) artstyle and see how faster that is. What do you think about the result? 🕯️ #unity3d #3d #game #indiegame #art #3dart #gamedev #indiegame

@lujey_ali @godotengine yes

Woah, another #GodotEngine beta already? You’re not imagining things, it’s only been a week since our last release. We’ll likely do one more beta release the following week, but after that we hope to be gearing up for release candidates. godotengine.org/article/dev-sn…

Learned a little about MetaSounds and Niagra by making this. #unreal #UnrealEngine5 #ue5 #ue #gamedev #indiedev #dev #indie #gamedevelopment #gixorn #games

Familiarized myself with the basics of Unreal by applying some basic vector math in the engine through blueprints. #madewithunreal #unrealengine #unreal #gamedev #indiedev #indiegame #gamedevelopment #game #gixorn

Finished a course about Godot a week ago. I learned about the basics of the engine, signals, groups, GDscript,different nodes and other systems such as the animator. Here are the various course projects: #GodotEngine #Godot #godot #madewithgodot #gamedev #games #gamedevelopment

@TrentKaniuga I think it was inevitable for them to hike the prices eventually. It seems that Microsoft, like Netflix started off with cheaper prices in order to entice customers, and to then hike the prices up when they amassed a big enough customer base. It is sad, but I am not surprised.

Well, I WAS planning on signing up for Gamepass this year. But now, it just doesn’t add up. In fact, it’s looking like the old model of just buying individual games makes the most sense for devs AND consumers.

Experimented a little bit in Blender. Is this something worth finishing? #Blender3d #gamedev #indiedev #games #indiedev #indiegame #indiegames #3dart #3d #art #gixorn #digitalart

Some progress on the 3d character that I am making. #Blender3d #gamedev #indiedev #games #indiedev #indiegame #indiegames #3dart #3d #art #gixorn #digitalart

Some progress on a 3d model that I am making. #3d #3dart #bledner #indiedev #gamedev #indiegame #blender3d #digtalart

Here is some more progress that I made one day later. I added rotation and movement to the camera. I also made sure that the camera can be manipulated with both keyboard, mouse and game controllers. #godot #godotengien #madewithgodot #3d #gamedev #gamedevelopment #indiedev

Continuing to learn Godot. I am currently trying to make a functioning camera controller. I have currently only programmed in zooming by manipulating the spring arm length. #godot #gixorn #indiedev #indiegame #indiegamedev #godotengine #madewithgodot #3d

@MusicByHM333XO Thanks! So you like the pixel version more?

Did some sketching and thought it would look better if I turned the sketch into pixel art. Which style do you think is better? #pixelart #gamedev #indiedev #games #gaming #art #2d #gixorn #retrogames #sketch #sketching

Decided to mess around a little bit in Unreal to see how it differs from Godot. So far I like the landscaping tools and the out of the box rendering quality. Though it is heavy in terms of storage. #UnrealEngine #madeinunreal #gamedev #indiedev #games #gaming #indiegames #gixorn

@MusicByHM333XO They are more like placeholders that I used to follow the tutorial. They were made by Gdquest. But I like the simplistic design, so I might create something like that myself.

Followed GDquests tutorial on movement for tactical rpgs. Got introduced to concepts such as the A* search algorithm to do pathfinding. Tutorial can be found here: gdquest.com/tutorial/godot… #godot #indiedev #indiegame #gamedev #games #gaming #indiegamedev #gamedevelopment #rpg

@j21968 Sure, what do you want to know?

Did you know that the Splatoon characters where blocks of tofu in the prototype or that they where bunnies before becoming squids? I found an interesting interview about the development of Splatoon. iwataasks.nintendo.com/interviews/wii… #splatoon #gamedev #games #gaming #nintendo

Continuing with learning Godot. Just made my first 3d game! I followed the official Godot documentation that had a guide for this game: #contents" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener">docs.godotengine.org/en/stable/gett… #game #godot #godot3d #blender #gameplay #gamedev #indiedev #gixorn #madewithgodot
