Slowly continuing work on Xenon Arena. Haven't been able to update much as I've got a lot of things half done and not much fully done. But have a nice picture of WIP foliage #anime #partygame #stylised #gamedev #unrealengine #ue5
Durandal Game Studios
@durandalgs.bsky.social
Indie game studio based in Scotland Developing 'Xenon Arena', A 2000s anime-style tank party game
Been a blast working on the aim assist and better visual responses in combat. Also some lighting and atmosphere changes in the background of the level but those are not far enough along to bother talking about yet. Good things soon!
Valkiri Develops - Xenon Arena@silvervalkiri.bsky.social · 10mo agoI am so glad to finally be working on new systems properly again in Alepha. I love the tank game but Alepha has my heart. Especially now its viable on controller with the aim assist #gamedev #indie #arenashooter #unrealengine #halo #2000s youtu.be/IJVlI7JNEvA?...
Dynamic scaling shields. Go from blue to pink based on how much damage you take
That's a really good idea. I've been wanting to balance the classic xbox look with a sort of "high res" feel to it. Like remastering a vibe rather than a game. Will definitely be posting up in the next day or two with environment and lighting updates!
A big part of developing Alepha after finishing university is to get as many people as possible interested. We want to explore options for accessibility to allow a wider range of players access. Starting with 3rd person as a player option and working on colorblind options. #gamedev #accessibility
Alepha is still in its development infancy. But the support has been unreal. Really looking forward to whats coming this summer. Character overhaul, new maps, minigames, new weapons. We have got a long way to go and I'd love for you to join us on this journey! The Cycle ends with you!

Hi! Joining Bluesky because its cool. I'm gonna post some of the game design and graphic design work I've been doing over the last few years here (If I can remember too).
Following up from those icons, here is some more commission work for the ALEPHA project. The logo and some iconography for the game!
Preview of the first 7 emblems part of Alepha's profile customisation. Amazing work done by @scottsquish.bsky.social Excellent graphic designer. Go give him a follow!
Taking this weekend to go over our Menu UI to give it some more life before we knuckle down into the development of the 3D art. Getting closer and closer to a public Alpha Test 👀
"A day at the beach" concept by our very own @minikingames.bsky.social Intended as a 'vibe' study for the atmosphere of our first multiplayer map, and showcasing our skybox centerpiece, the world tree which holds together the artificial dyson-ring. Excited to share more in the coming weeks!
Big things are coming for Alepha. Make sure to follow @durandalgs.bsky.social for updates! But say hello to the Centurion Mk. II battle armour.
Have just sent out some invites to a closed pre-alpha testing. Get some bugs found and fixed before the alpha gets up and rolling 🫣
