Fellow game devs, do you put the "This game has an autosave feature" warning and UI because: A. You saw another game do it B. You ever in your life had a problem with someone yanking the powercord off the computer in the 0.12s that the autosave was acutally writing to disk

Gotta have that 3x magnification for that 20m shot #Indiedev #Gamedev #UE5 (Yes it'll be (slightly) easier to aim through it at some point, it still uses the input smoothing from iron sights atm)

On hover, there's now a red outline on the hovered part, + cursor properly changes to a hover hand Seems trivial but it was very frustrating before when trying to grab small parts #gamedev #indiedev #UE5

Scopes! In Ballistic.exe (WIP) #indiedev #gamedev #techart #UE5 youtube.com/shorts/pSI6Y...

This is insane. I genuinely though Ballistic.exe would be a game for 100 people. But last week the reveal trailer skyrocketed, and in a single week we've hit the 1500 wishlists milestone! Thank you thank you thank you! This is both very scary and very motivating. Stay tuned!

Really didn't like the software cursor lag during interaction mode. So now I use a hardware cursor and switch to a software one when grab begins and cursor position needs to be set. Works well! #Gamdev #Indiedev #UE5

At work I be fixing BUG-28042, and on the weekend I'm working on BUG-4 of Ballistic.exe - Feels a lot better I gotta say xD #Gamedev

Wrote a quick and simple fog post process since #UE5 built in fog doesn't work for me. Don't know quite how to make it fit with the 1bit look yet but I like the simplicity ^^ #gamdev #techart #indiedev

And more important, edges on the weapon are immediately cleaner and more readable 💪

Had the sudden but clear realization that my edge detection shader sucked ass, reworked it from scratch with smarter depth edge detection, and a new per object outline buffer (using the roughness buffer actually) OMG, so much better! Less noise, more clarity, and more stable #TechArt #UE5 #gamdev

Quick mockup of the "Hit card" you get for each target hit in Ballistic.exe I'm thinking some cards combinations (e.g long distance hits) could grant some combo bonus at the end of a session #indiedev #gamedev #UE5

Ballistic.exe is a weapon simulator, with an extensive ballistic model and manipulation mechanics. Unique 3 DOF controls make each shot a true skill challenge. With dozens of weapons, hundreds of weapon parts, and bizarre secrets to uncover! #screenshotsaturday

Free advice: ALL your UI animations should be x2 faster than they are. + All non-critical buttons to click on mouse down ( after seing a hot J. Carmack take xD ) Huge improvement to the feel of this menu. Still need an affordable Chicago stand-in if any #UI connaisseur can come to the rescue!
