I couldn't sleep well last night, so I was having a hard time with my work efficiency. I wanted to write the document well for me in the future, but the speed of writing was painfuly slow.

But work seems done in writings above.

#gamedev #indiegamedev #indiedev #unrealengine

I solved this problem by moving the actor reference storage container variable to the custom AWorldSettings, from engine subsystem.

It would have been nice if it had been like this from the beginning. I did not know well about the AWorldSettings at past. AWorldSettings is the first actor in the array of actors in the ULevel.

#gamedev #indiegamedev #indiedev #unrealengine

- In a place related to the actor's regeneration phase, such as the actor's construction script or OnConstruction,

- if there is process to write reference of actor that placed in the world, to outside of map, such as the engine subsystem,

- the GC check will fail in the process of the opening the map and the editor will crash.

#gamedev #indiegamedev #indiedev #unrealengine

I solved the editor crash problem pretty easily, but I'm struggling with the slow work in the part where I write why the crash occurred. But I have to use this well and show it to my future self. Because he will surely make the same mistake again!

A screenshot featuring one of the nice eyes from the hopeless void telling you that it watches because it’s better than looking away. Behind it is a twisting night sky and a giant monolith towers in the distance. the moon is illuminating everything with a blue tint.

A screenshot from the “heaven is empty” bitsy. the bitsy shows a spider and a tiny fly. it’s in a browser window against a stormy sky.

An animated gif showing a glitching CRT monitor slowly sinking in water. The shore you are standing on looks like obsidian. Both the surface of the water, and the ground are dark and reflective... almost like a marsh. There are twigs and dead trees around. The hills in the distance are dark. Above it are stars and feathers are gently raining down. In the center of the image is the title "Blue Suburbia" which is glowing and glitching just above the monitor.

More history: my original dev sketch of the room layouts for Money Bags on #SAMCoupe (1996). It was my answer to Jetset Willy on SAM, spawning 3 games.

I'm currently re-mastering Money Bags 2, the full sequel from 1997. Pre-orders will be open soon (and for three more re-mastered SAM games) with both floppy disk and Trinity SD card editions.

MB1 and MB1 1.5 are with issues 9 and 17 of SAM Revival magazine.

The entrance to a cave. In the distance you see ribs towering over you. There is a giant skull decorated with giant red flowers laying on the ground. It is beautiful and terrifying.

Pink glowing flowers dot a shoreline. There are sharp rocks protruding everywhere. The actual shoreline looks like it is made of obsidian. Light is glowing through cracks in the ground. It looks dreamy.

A wall is broken and in the distance, where it broke, you see a nebula. It looks like you are in a hallway in space. There is writing on the wall talking about self-hate and a dialogue bubble just underneath.

I giant skeleton rests against an iridescent obsidian cave wall. The cave is glowing like it is made of stars. It is gently purple, pink, and blue. The skeleton looks like it is made of old rock. It is holding a beautiful large red flower.

An early demo that introduces you to the world.
Interactive literature, poetry, and a haunted journey through dreamscapes... about struggle, survival, tenacity, strength, and hope.
(coming soon to Steam)

An animated gif of the main menu showing the title hovering above a broken CRT monitor. The title is glitchy and so is the screen on the monitor. There are feathers gently hovering down from above. The area around looks like water with dark hills in the distance. There are some branches poking out of the water. It is dark with very little color.

ok so the demo (for my beautiful new game) is going to launch within the next few days...
itch first (because it's gentle there)
then steam (so i can take my time to do it right)
i'm hyped! watch this space!! 🎉✨😱🥳

This is an article from 2019 but it does show that indie game development, something that has interested me for quite some time now, is far from being all roses with many in the industry living precarious lives.

I already knew that it is hard for the vast majority (or long tail) of developers, but reading actual stories, including from Arvi Teikari who created Baba Is You, a game I bought, provides a lot of perspective.

i'm on the final stretch!
i finished putting in the writing for this last part... nice pop ups, dialogue, and another story segment.
i'm moving on to sound and music now... then i have something to finally show!!! 🎉

A group of eyes circles around you, in a cosmic dreamscape. They are asking horrible prying questions.

Two eyes stand beside a giant chain. The chain looks frozen as there are frost marks on it. The space surrounding everything is a cosmic dreamscape. The two eyes are looking at you, asking horrible prying questions.

Ruins of a staircase, and part of a wall, lay embedded in a obsidian hillside. The wall has the word "Freedom" written on it with an arrow pointing to an archway.
The space surrounding everything is a cosmic dreamscape.

In front of a cosmic dreamscape sky is a pop up window with a story titled "Her Eye". It is telling you about the eyes, and that they eventually stop paying attention to you once the novelty of you wears off. It makes sense in context of the game.

#IndieGames #IndieGameDev #GameDev

yay! today i finished modeling and animating the first monster that confronts you.
it moves kind of randomly and it has this beautiful static shader so it looks like it crawled out of a broken TV. i'm nicknaming it STATICMAN.
it mocks your desire to be free & you have to argue with it so it lets you go on...

a closer view of STATICMAN. it looks like a silhouette of a demon Barbie filled with static. there's a text field under it with a similar effect. it looks jarring.

another angle of the character. you can see a silhouette filled with static. the only indication of a face are glowing white eyes and a mouth that's always open. there's a text field at the bottom of the screen showing what it is saying.

another angle of the same shot showing STATICMAN in a different pose. its mouth is ajar and glowing eyes staring at you. there's a text field beneath it taunting you. the only thing separating you from it are the bars between the two of you.

a closer angle of STATICMAN. you can see the static glowing. it is slightly transparent and you can see the hallway behind it. glowing eyes and mouth are staring at you. it looks unsettling.

I finally set up an edge climbing animation

The game had come a long way since I started... 🤩

side by side comparison of Xenospore, an isometric pixel art strategy game about defending humanity from a red alien fungus. The mouse selects tiles and destroys them. To the left - unrefined pixel art and rough animation / gameplay. To the right - the current version, 1.1, much more refined.

isometric colorful pixel art tiles of different structures and biomes, and a red fungus that spreads. The mouse selects tiles, and adjacent tiles that infect them or adjacent tiles that will be infected are highlighted.

The process of solving a level
#indiegamedev #pixelart #godotengine

isometric pixel art tiles of different structures and biomes, and a red alien fungus that tries to consume everything in its path. The level is sped up and shows how to save all the buildings from being destroyed.

I admit it... Sometimes I'm just evil... 😈
The structure that resembles an electric pole separates the selection of adjacent tiles.
#indiegamedev #pixelart #godotengine

isometric pixel art tiles of infected houses, red fungus and a structure that resembles an electric pole. The structure alters the mechanics of the game, making it impossible to select all of the houses in order to cleanse their infection, which results in some of the houses getting destroyed by the alien xenospore organism.

Chain reactions are predictable and can be viewed when selecting tiles. They are also very deadly. 🤯
#indiegamedev #pixelart #godotengine

Isometric pixel art colorful tiles of different biomes and structures. There is a line of adjacent expolsive structures. One of the structures in the line is infected and about to explode. The mouse selects other tiles in the chain and the "chain explosion starter" is revealed along with all the tiles that will react to it. On the next turn, the infected tile explodes, resulting in a massive chain reaction of explosions that cover everything in a toxic, red alien fungus.

y'all i got the dialogue (story) into the opening scene and ✨ IT IS SO BEAUTIFUL!! 🌌
i am proud of this work. lol screenshots don't do it justice... but look!
it switches between Bitsy and navigating the 3D environment. text is delivered in pieces... it's effective!

the closing scene with the eye, delivering the last set of dialogue. the eye is large and in a 2D animation style. it is surrounded with tiny stars.

a distorted glitchy forest is visible behind an animated gif of an eye. the gif looks like a button.

a Bitsy space is displayed on top of the 3D world. the surroundings are glitchy. there is a forest filled with dead trees on both sides.

as you approach the eye a void opens behind it. you can see stars in the void. the eye looks brighter, contrasted against the dark background. dead trees surround you. there are rays of light coming out from behind the dark void.

Alien fungus spread 🍄

Hello everyone! I'm #indiedev from Ukraine. I am working on my #metroidvania and this is my first post here. I develop it on Construct 3. And two days ago I created a Steam page. This is side-scroller metroidvania about girl who saves her village from a terrible epidemic with gameplay like in classical metroidvanias.
