That satisfaction after spending 4 hours developing a tool that saves 30 minutes of repetitive work 🧨 #zintgame #gamedev #IndieGameDev #toolingmaniac

You have an important choice. Who are you rockin' in your front line? #QuartetRPG #screenshotsaturday #pixelart

Experimenting with #UE5 StateTrees. I like the possibility of scripting AI behaviors without that AIController/Pawns overhead. #screenshotsaturday #zintgame #IndieGameDev

Fun fact: Some of McPixel 3 faux-3D scenes have been pre-rendered using @rezoner's SpriteStack.

Working on 2D tactical combat in UE5. 🥷 #zintgame #indiegame #UnrealEngine5

New Year - New Engine ^_^ As I am an experienced c++ programmer I decided to divorce with c# and switch from Unity to Unreal Engine. After some tricky initial setup for the 2d scene, everything looks OK. I feel good about that decision👌 #zintgame #indiedevhour #UE4 #indiedev

Needed something to shoot for internal testing, decided why not go all the way and just make functional target dummies for players. #pixelart #gamedev #madewithunity #indiedev #indiegame #gaming #rpg #unity3d #aseprite

@mikeBithell Brown style, mini open world FPS with exploring on feet and boat. Placed on an archipelago on the hostile acid planet. WIP store.steampowered.com/app/1212550/EV…

Added Behavior Trees into the project to handle enemies AI. One of them is smart enough to hide behind the red barrel💣. #zintgame #indiedevhour #indiedev #gamedev

@ongamex92 I noticed that ImGui feeling ;D I keep an eye on the release. Love C++-oriented engines. I had high hopes about Godot but their build system and c++ workflow are far from being comfortable.

@zintgame the editor is written by myself, the UI library that I use is Dear ImGui. I'm aiming to release the engine (alpha version) soon. The engine is C++ centric and it works a bit like a strange mix between Unity unreal codewise.

The game engine is now a standalone application. The game is just a plugin that uses the SDK of the engine! #gamedev #indiedev #programming #screenshotsaturday #gameengine #indiegame #cplusplus

For today’s tactical, we want to talk about Jagged Alliance! Released in 1995 for MS-DOS, it was one of the first tactical turn-based titles back in the day! With its excellent combat and 60 mercenaries to hire, it's a must-play! Did you play this one? 😊

@GlassySundew Love the art style!

Hey #madewithunity devs, how many of you are using ECS for gameplay code? I am using Leopotam ECS, and it's going pretty well so far. Simple but meeting the needs API is a big plus. github.com/Leopotam/ecs #indiedevhour #gamedev

Who's checked out the Jupiter Moons demo? You can play through a full gameplay cycle (battle, rewards & inventory management) in the demo that's currently featuring as part of the Steam Festival. store.steampowered.com/app/1288540/Ju… #indiegame #Steam #SteamGameFestival #gamedev

Can a battlefield exist without red barrels? ;) Working on combat - aiming and covers. #zintgame #screenshotsaturday #IndieGameDev

@cubee_mr 3) Almost the whole game then drop the project. ;)

I switched to Unity from my c++ based tech. The main reason was to iterate faster on visuals. Inventory window implementation went pretty fast - with ECS based architecture. #zintgame #IndieGameDev #indiedevhour #madewithunity

@ongamex92 Good point. Also, "const" was confusing for me at the beginning :D

As a C++ programmer, I never thought that the hardest thing in C# would be to stop writing floating-point numbers like so: 1.f

Added action points and turns mechanic. Now I am working on game state transitions. Visuals will be better but the logic is working! Getting close to full combat game-loop. #zintgame #IndieGameDev #indiedevhour
