I was working on some improvements to the Intro Level's boss fight, and had some good moments while testing it, including a few deflected laser blasts bouncing back to hit the boss at the end! #RebelCoreAwakens #indiegame #gamedev #bossfight
Keep going. I believe in you. #gamedev
Which level and boss would you take on first? Do you go after the easiest looking level or boss? Or the coolest looking? #RebelCoreAwakens #indiegame #gamedev #retrogaming #OST

A quick 25 second introduction to action platformer, Rebel Core: Awakens! #gamedev #indiegame #actionplatformer #retrogaming #ost #RebelCoreAwakens
The Technician is a pre-war Core Robotic, built before the machine uprising, and seems to take it quite personally that his age has not brought seniority within the group. #RebelCoreCards #IndieGame #GameDev #RebelCoreAwakens #Worldbuilding
The eternal debate - Megaman vs Zero...but why choose when you can have both?? (Wait, is that you Protoman? Lets have all three!!) #indiegames #gamedev #RebelCoreAwakens
For #LORT, we provided technical art support for Big Distraction’s character shading pipeline. We reworked the shading pipeline to improve visual quality, lighting consistency, and performance, while making character iteration easier and fitting existing content. 🤌 #techart #technicalart #gamedev
Deep underground, in the scorching magma tunnels of the Pit lives the 6th Core Robotic, WYRM! A Post-War Mechanoid Core, it has never interacted with humans, only ever knowing a world run by machines. #RebelCoreCards #RebelCoreAwakens #indiegame #gamedev #worldbuilding
It's time for an updated and extended set of worldbuilding sequences for Rebel Core: Awakens! Giving a more cinematic view into a world that has been overtaken by Machines. youtu.be/I3x5D0MdBwM #RebelCoreAwakens #indiegame #worldbuilding #lore #gamedev #OST by Dan Sandberg

A small tidbit of a new, longer worldbuilding video for Rebel Core: Awakens featuring some rough headlines... #RebelCoreAwakens #indiegame #gamedev #OST by Dan Sandberg
Core Robotic 05 is Proteus, the sewer dwelling monstrosity. While some machines were "just following their programming", Proteus was disgustingly fond of his work in the machine uprising. #rebelcorecards #indiegame #gamedev #worldbuilding #RebelCoreAwakens
🌊 Swirl, sway, and splash... for those moments your world needs a real-time ocean, drifting debris, and a touch of turbulence. #realtimevfx #realtimefx #vfx #gamedev #visualeffects #fx

Core Robotics collectors card number 4: The Collector! Possibly the most conflicted of the lot, the Collector spends most of his time convincing himself it was the right decision to massacre the humans. #RebelCoreAwakens #IndieGame #gamedev #Worldbuilding #RebelCoreCards

New lore series! This is the first in a pair of front/back collectible-card-style image sets for each boss in Rebel Core: Awakens. Meet the Seeker! #RebelCoreAwakens #indiegame #gamedev #worldbuilding #RebelCoreCards
Does this update feel better in portrait with captions? I default to this style more for TikTok/Insta/Youtube Shorts but bsky being so much more dev focused, does this work better here or is the landscape full-screen approach more appealing for dev updates? #indiegame #gamedev #rebelcoreawakens
I made some improvements to the HUD and vitality upgrade systems :) Each upgrade is tied to an index so it won't respawn after being collected and appropriately animates/rebuilds the HUD after being collected. #gamedev #indiegame #RebelCoreAwakens #UI
