This was so fun. As a kid I loved code breaking books, and mystery books by Enid Blighton, Robert Arthor Jr and the Hardy Boys. This really took me back. Great idea and very well polished. Great work! #BrackeysGameJam

Let me tell you a story about the last day of the #BrackeysGameJam Earlier in the week I made a cool script that could do mesh deformation during run time, and I figured out how to update the Mesh Collider as well. I used this to create craters when the grenades exploded. cont...

#BrackeysGameJam Day 4 Rebuilt the building. Still needs work. Switched to URP so need to redo the toon shaders. Lots of destructible scenery. Audio, with slow motion audio. Explosion physics. Rubble from explosions. #IndieDev #SoloDev #GameDesign #GameJam

This is something I haven't tried before. Made the ground deformable so when the fruit grenades explode they leave an actual crater. Pretty cool in slow motion mode! #GameDev #GameDesign #SoloDev #BrackeysGameJam #IndieDev

Day 3 of #BrackeysGameJam Added: Ability to catch fruit grenade. A ripeness mechanic + UI (if the grenade isn't picked on time it will fall on its own) UI to help show where the falling fruit is Modelled the fruit grenade. #GameDev #SoloDev #IndieDev #GameJam #GameDesign

Attempting my first game jam! #BrackeysGameJam Theme: "Nothing Can Go Wrong" You are a cat girl in a secret military bunker where the government has genetically modified trees to grow hand grenades. It is your job to use your cat-like reflexes to harvest the grenades.

Just finished Outer Wilds + DLC by @mobiusdigitalgames.com Omg amazing. 👏 Big recommend. Can't fathom how you would even begin designing a game like this. Don't think it is a spoiler to say it reminds me a bit of the Myst series, but even better.

On a team making a #synthwave themed hack'n'slash atm. Doing some experiments with camera perspective. What do you think looks best? I originally thought ortho, but with the levels' verticality maybe perspective looks better? www.youtube.com/watch?v=wCKP... #GameDev #IndieDev #GameDesign

Finishing up my dissertation on #VR doors. These are the demos for the modular door system I developed as part of that. Elements that affect how they operate or behave can be swapped in or out to create the door you need. www.youtube.com/watch?v=Wdgp... #GameDev #IndieDev #GameDesign #Unity3D

A big problem with #VR doors that require the player to grab a handle is the difference between what is happening in game vs what the player's hand is actually doing. (Green line for the movement of the in-game hand. Red Line for the movement of the real world hand) #GameDev #Unity3D #GameDesign

What better gift for the mum who wants for nothing than a 3D printed bust of her favourite #GameDev daughter's head that's also a fridge magnet? #GiftIdeas @ganymede1714.bsky.social

Wanderer Vertical Sliding Door Notes Has momentum but very high friction. Not affected by gravity. Two handles, but only requires one hand to operate. Does not latch. #VR #GameDesign #GameDev

Wanderer Vault Door Similar to Swing Door. Must turn the handwheel into the open position to unlock. Handwheel attached to door itself. Can turn with one hand. Once handwheel is in open position, it can't be turned back again. Audio effects that seem to be speed dependent. #VR #GameDev #GameDesign

Wanderer Swing Door Unreal Engine. Has momentum. Physics interactions with hands. One way. When near the closed angle, the door becomes "sticky" to that angle range. Doesn't fully latch. When released in the closed position, the door moves slightly within the angle range. #GameDev #GameDesign #VR

Red Matter Sliding Door Notes Push button on one side for door to open automatically. One the other side, the scanner function needs to be used on a terminal for the door to open automatically. #VR #GameDesign #GameDev

House Flipper VR Doors Notes Tapping the handle makes the door swing open fully (I think?) Door does not have momentum. Does open both ways. Soft latches in the closed position when approximately that angle. Hand does not visually grab the handle. #VR #GameDev #GameDesign #HouseFillerVR
