playing around with systemic interactions, the flamethrower payload is buffed by the anti-grav payload that was shot before it so the fire also lifts whatever it hits, neat #gamedev #indiegame #retrofps #gamedesign #indiedev

gameplay loop starting to come along #retrofps #gamedev #indiedev #indiegame

most barrels have 3 tiers, here's the lightning payload tiers #gamedev #retrofps #indiegame #screenshotsaturday #gamefeel

more biome testing and some (dark, lighting WIP) arena combat, kinda had some unintentional horror vibes for a while there #gamedev #indiegame #retrofps #indiedev

doing some art tests for a new biome, interiors are a bit too dark atm, but the concept is there?? #gamedev #retrofps #indiegame #indiedev

the combat arena is exposed to the outside #gamedev #retrofps #indiedev #indiegame

new level hazard: oversized hydraulic press pros: dangerous cons: dangerous #gamedev #indiegame #retrofps #games #fps

everyone dislikes genai in games, but kids and story-focused players the most. sounds like we'll be ok. just have to stay the course here and the "inevitable" new technology nobody likes will die. again. quanticfoundry.com/2025/12/18/g...

increasing the knockback on enemies was a good idea ⬆ #gamedev #indiegame #indiedev #retrofps

been playing around with different explosion types and made a "fall from the sky" type explosion #gamedev #indiegame #retrofps

working on an inventory thing, you can store all your barrels and turn your multi-barreled shotgun into a single-barreled shotgun (wow!) #gamedev #indiegame

sneaking a peek at the artificial sunset #gamedev #indiegame

added signs to the shops that ominously rotate towards the player, for clarity, of course #gamedev #indiegame

made a little sequence to get the player to look downwards when entering the room #gamedev #indiegame #leveldesign #retrofps #gaming

some payloads fire in a sustained mode and we had the obvious idea of adding a "beer barrel" to our shotgun(haha) - as a payload also doubles as a jetpack! #gamedev #indiegame #retrofps

the sidearm does a funky animation when loading it with new payloads #gamedev #indiegame #retrofps

double laser double_laser #gamedev #indiegame #fps

before/after did some lighting adjustments to our levels for our steam release turns out just cranking up your ambient lighting isn't a good way to light your levels #gamedev #indiegame #leveldesign

we just released our demo for CHAIN SHOTGUN for Steam Next Fest a game about adding an absurd amount of barrels to your shotgun, among other things check it out! store.steampowered.com/app/3970990/... #retrofps #indiegame #gamedev #FPS #indiedev

beam weapon revamped my shooting code to allow for beam-like payloads so now I can do things like this, still not sure what it should do outside of combat though 🤔 (also did some sound design 🔊) #gamedev #indiedev #gamefeel #retrofps #indiegame #boomershooter

I will never forget the immense disappointment I felt when I noticed I couldn't jump on the harpoons from HL2 anyway, this is the harpoon payload, it sticks to walls and you can jump on it! I generally try to make payloads do more than just "kill enemy better" #gamedev #indiedev #indiegame #games
