Instead of harsh penalties, using visual and gameplay effects like lower saturation, cold screen effects, reduced resource yield, and slower movement makes survival feel immersive without being frustrating. It encourages players to manage needs without feeling punished. #indiegame #indiedev

What’s youre guys favourite indie game of 2024? Looking for recommendations

Halfway done the placement system in my game. I still need to include placing objects on walls, on top of other objects, freely placing objects and some of the visual/audio feedback for picking up and placing, but this is a huge improvement over the last iteration #indiedev #indiegame #gamedev

Working on my gamejam game "Battery Breakout", a 2d puzzle platformer where you have to escape a house to jump in the ocean. It will come out in 7 days #indiedev #indiegame #gamedev

These last days I've been working on an asset pack inspired by Megaman games. You can check it out in Itch io. justdari.itch.io/mega-robots #pixelart #animation #gamedev #megaman

So I've finished the potato, tomato, carrot and wheat crops with 3 growth cycles for my game #celestialtrails. I'm not a pro 3D modeler, I've always loved experimenting with art in multiple mediums. What are your thoughts on the crops? Love critiscm #indiedev #indiegame #gamedev

Some of the work I've been doing on my shop UI. Still some work to go to make it feel good to use, but I've never really been great at UI and I feel like I'm starting to improve #indiedev #gamedev #indiegame

Missing some of the tab sprites from the old one. But here's the old Shop Menu vs the new one #indiedev #gamedev #indiegame

Working on the shop UI. Which version is more appealing? #gamedev #indiedev #gamedev

Adding in more assets for interiors for the first playable build of my game. Some of these things like fridges or stoves server besides just decoration and allow you to store and cook food. What would you wanna be able to have in your house? #gamedev #indiedev #indiegame

Working on the UI a bit right now. I want the game to have survival esc mechanics like hunger and thirst, without actually having negative effects like losing health. Instead your movement speed decreases, and stuff like that. How does the ui icon in the to left look? #gamedev #indiedev #indiegame

Took some time to draw the icons for all the buildings so far in the game for the building menu. Takes some time but think it looks good what do you think? #indiedev #gamedev #screenshotsaturday

Redid the animations with the new model like tree chopping and I think it looks much better. Also made it so the sound of hitting the tree is synced up and that a little bit of "wood particles" come out of the tree when hitting it

Implemented the new player model and made new animations. Think it's looking way more fitting with current style of game

Working on making the forest in the game feel more dense and more alive #indiedev #gamedev #cozygame

I was up late last night finishing up the playtest build of my video game and it's done and I've sent out the build to a few people to try out!!! (*irl friends/mutuals* If I havent reached out already, please let me know if you're interested in trying the game!) 🎃🎃🎃 #indiegame #gamedev #gamemaker

If you ever wanna see more development updates on my game Celestial Trails im always posting in my discord! Feel free to join and talk about the game! #gamedev #indiegame #cozygame

Tried recreating the player character (left) to fit the aesthetic more. It's close to what I want, but still kinda weird. A bit wide eyed. What do you guys think of the newer model vs the old? #indiedev #gamedev #cozygame

Which UI looks the nicest for my game Celestial Trails? #indiedev #gamedev #cozygame #videogame

It's rough, but I started working on the way chopping down trees work in the game a bit more. Now instead of animations, it uses code and a rigidbody to make the tree shake and fall. Need a lot more tweaking but I thought it looked a lot cooler than just an animation #indiedev #gamedev #cozygame

Updated the pine tree model and created an oak tree model so now the forest on the island within #CelestialTrails will look more dense #indiedev #gamedev#cozygame
