Progress on One Minute To Close is going quite well, we think. #gamedev #indiedev #godot

08/06/2025: The Island Escape The project is coming along nicely, despite a few hiccups implementing the rotating island mechanic. There have been a lot of minor adjustments and improvements made to the old mechanics which we hope fix the issues we had previously. #godot #gamedev

"The Island Escape" was created for the Kenney Game Jam in 2021, under the theme: "Rotation". With the help of a vaguely drawn map, the player must collect six items dotted around the Island and escape before the time runs out. #unity #godot #kenneygamejam

Re-working "The Island Escape", our very first project from 2021, into Godot. It's fun to see the difference that 4 years of experience makes. #godot #indiedev #theislandescape #gamedev

The item placement generation for the market's shelves is going pretty well.. #oneminutetoclose #proceduralgeneration #indiegame #godot

Small update to the staff's animations using Godot's 4.4 LookAt Node. We also find it cool how the head turning blends well with the original animation. The next step will be to see how it performs within the game. #godot #synty #oneminutetoclose #gamedev #indiegame

Today is #WorldHearingDay! Nearly 3 billion people play video games 🎮. Are you one of them? Gamers risk hearing loss and tinnitus from prolonged exposure to loud sounds while playing video games. Take steps to protect your hearing health 🔗 bit.ly/4hlCKHD

Bug of the year: We're not entirely too sure what is going on here or why. If anyone has encountered a similar issue or has thoughts as to why this could be happening, we'd love to hear them! #godot #gamedev #indiedev

So, apparently there are issues around DirectX12 support and Windows 10... Ask us how we found out :^) #godot #games #windows10 #DX12

Something tells me I shouldn't be here right now... #gamedev #godot #synty #indiegame Play the Demo: store.steampowered.com/app/2953320/...

Update! ONE MINUTE TO CLOSE Demo After 10 hours of trying to figure out what was happening, we found the issue, and the game should no longer crash upon entering the supermarket. We thank you for your patience and understanding! #gamedev #godot #indiegame #oneminutetoclose

It has come to our attention that our demo for One Minute To Close is having CPU issues that are affecting lower end to mid range PCs. 😳 We are currently working towards fixing this! As this is our first ever launch, we appreciate your understanding and thank you for your patience. #godot

Who would have thought that a little highlighting bug on one of the checkouts would end up breaking the whole highlight feature? Time to find a fix. #godot #gamedev #oneminutetoclose

One Minute To Close is a result of working in retail over many years and asking ourselves what posseses someone to do a full shop right before closing. Built using #godot and using #synty assets. Our Demo is out and we would love to get your feedback! #steamnextfest

We will be testing out more Steam Next Fest demos and writing up a roundup of some recommendations to try out on the #SteamDeck! If you are an indie dev who has a Next Fest demo, comment here and we will check your demos out!

The supermarket is closing, and staff are ready to go home—but you have to do your shopping. One Minute To Close - Play the Demo on Steam! #indiegame #gamedev #steamnextfest25 #Oneminutetoclose #indiedev

First participation in a #trijam Trijam #308: Camp Site Fire Being a camp counsellor is no easy task, and it's time to prepare lunch, but little Timmy thinks getting close to the campfire is a brilliant idea. #Godot #gamejam #indiegame #indiedev #game

Your owner, Linda, knows something’s fishy about you. If she catches you slipping, she’ll turn you into a fshhfinger for dinner! Would love to get some feedback on this little game made during the #globalgamejam! #indiedev #indiegame #games sleepyswanstudios.itch.io/fshhng-around

We took part in the #globalgamejam2025 with the theme: Bubble. It was really fun working on this project (FshhNG Around) and the first time we've been able to make a game that works within 48hrs. Let us know what you think! #gamedev #indiegame #ggj25 sleepyswanstudios.itch.io/fshhng-around

After getting the #synty animations working in #Godot, we have been working towards replacing the old animations. Replacing animations may not seem like much, but they have drastically improved the game's feel, and we are very excited to have reached this milestone. #indiegames #games #gamedev

That moment when you're told the store is about to close, but you still haven't finished your shopping. #oneminutetoclose #games #indegamedev #indiegames

Remember, games are never made in a vacuum. Our game, One Minute To Close, is inspired by Hello Neighbor, Alien: Isolation and a sprinkle of insanity after working over 5 years in different retail environments. #IndieGames #GameDev #oneminutetoclose #games

🎉🎉After many trials and tribulations, we finally got the synty animations working in Godot! 🎉🎉 #GodotEngine #IndieGames #OneMinuteToClose
