Virtual Reality nerd with a soft spot for retro gaming. Made the arcade shooter WARCHASM. Also likes making music and playing guitar.
So the wife made these great new models for the end of level battles in WARCHASM. And I’ve the last couple of weeks putting together some animation worthy of them. WARCHASM is available now on the Meta Quest store and on Steam VR. #metaquest #virtualreality #indiegames #bullethell
Another demo of the new lighting set up. This time on the little spinner enemy type. These guys swarm you in groups. I wanted something in VR that felt like the old 8 bit game Galaxians! I’ll try and post a video showing them in action tomorrow! #virtualreality #metaquest2 #indiedev #indiegames
The volcano, where things start getting really hectic. Some sharp reflexes needed for this section. #virtualreality #indiegames #metaquest2 #unrealengine
Another of the drones shown off across the various environments. The new material set up really helps tie everything together and adds to the overall immersion. #indiegames #indiedev #virtualreality #metaquest2
Little preview of the new, faster caves level being played with the improved Diva sidearm. Game will be both on sale for half price and have a demo available on the quest store from next weekend - April 19th. #virtualreality #metaquest2 #indiedev #unrealengine #indiegames
Following on from yesterdays updated Diva sidearm. This is the new MiniBrute blaster. Massive improvement and all dynamically lit on quest. #virtualreality #metaquest2 #indiedev #unrealengine
Been a crazy day of power cuts and rigging problems. But here’s a look at the Diva sidearm. It’s certainly an improvement on the original! #virtualreality #metaquest2 #indiedev #unrealengine
Some more gameplay from the canyons. Love th new look and how th dodging sections just flow into combat now. #virtualreality #metaquest2 #indiedev #unrealengine #indiegames
Dev update… Another example of how the enemies better match each environment now making for a more immersive experience. #indiedev #metaquest2 #virtualreality #unrealengine
Another new feature! Junctions. Tilting the cart at these mallows the player to not only avoid dead ends but also pick alternative routes, get faster times or encounter different enemies. #indiedev #metaquest2 #virtualreality #indiegames
New look of the canyons. As well as improving the aesthetics it means there’s more out in the open to dodge and duck. Get that VR sweat on! #indiedev #metaquest2 #virtualreality #indiegames
In the OG release of Warchasm the enemies always looked the same regardless of which level you were playing. So we’ve changed that to have them sit better within each environment. #indiegame #metaquest #vr
Found a bug where the player couldn’t reload the MS20 missile launcher. So I set almost all ammo drops to be missiles to test it. The result is absolute bedlam! #vr #metaquest #indiegame
Taking out a drop ship with a transforming Minigun while riding a mine cart over a river of lava? Yes please! This is my VR game WARCHASM on MetaQuest. Demo and discount coming April 19th #virtualrrality #indiegame #metaquest #PCVR
This is from the latest update for my VR game WARCHASM. Really chuffed with the gun switching mechanic that slows time before deploying the weapon as a sort of blueprint that then builds itself when you grab it. Plus the weapon itself, the MS20 missile launcher, is pretty badass as well.
Leaderboards are pretty much there now. Will be great to get some player names up on the board after all this time.
Quick and dirty fast becoming the company moto! Was a fun way to test though!
Showcasing the new buffs and pickups from the new Warchasm update. #virtualreality #metaquest
Finally got round to adding scores (and hopefully a leaderboard) to my VR game Warchasm. #virtualreality #quest3
Is there anything worse than being shit at your own game‽
Show me…. VR Streamers, Players and content Creators! VR Streamers, Players and content Creators! VR Streamers, Players and content Creators! VR Streamers, Players and content Creators!!!!!! #virtualreality #quest3s #indiegames
New weapons, faster levels, the update is almost ready to drop! Warchasm for quest and PCVR.
Been playing on the new “The Spectrum” today! Now chilling with is classic. Proper nostalgic 80s Christmas!
Not game related this time but wanted to share this crazy storm we had while away last year in Ametlla del mar.
The original digital superstar! #retrogaming #indiegqmedev #virtualreality
Life imitating art etc… #retrogames #indiegamedev #virtualreality
So much fun working on all the different enemy types in my game. Here’s a few I lined up in sequence to show off. #virtualreality #quest2 #indiegamedev #unrealengine
