These are the revolvers I use to power my computer. They use a series of interconnected hamster wheels to generate electricity! #gamedev
Been awhile! Have some un-textured weapons. Playing around with a 2D muzzle flash asset pack, I think I can make these look real good with some extra work. #gamedev #indiegamedev #indiegame #gaming #blender #ue5 #unrealengine
At the risk of getting swarmed by bots, is there anyone interested in making break-core music for an FPS game I'm working on? Pls share examples of your work. Gen AI will be shot on sight. #gamedev
My gaming hot take is that wall running is kinda boring. It's the speed boost and air control from jumping off a wall that makes it fun. If your game has wall running but doesn't let me chain speed boosts or have good air control, it just feels sluggish.
Been working on a set of base arms to be used in an FPS game. Got em rigged and ready for action! Wanna see a magic trick? #gamedev #indiegamedev #blender #b3d #gaming

Using AI to generate placeholder images for your games is cringe. Just do what I do and use a picture of your dog with some text on it. You're going to replace it anyway, and if you forget, nobody gets mad because they found a cute dog picture. #gamedev #indiegamedev #indiegame
Uploading my projects on itch for free but with optional donations is really funny because I'll just be minding my business and then get jump scared by $2 lmao #gamedev #indiegamedev
Today's my last day at PAX, can't do the weekend. Had a great time, but my only regret is not being able to ask @writnelson.bsky.social for his babies.
Xalavier Nelson Jr.@writnelson.bsky.social · 7mo agoI'm not just giving the PAX East storytime talk tomorrow... I'm bringing Alien Babies. A lot of 'em. See you soon, Boston. east.paxsite.com/en-us/featur...

Finished my entry for the #badideasjam game jam which also requires a YouTube short to act as a pitch video. I had fun participating in the jam and making the video! #gamejam #indiedev #gamedev #indiegame www.youtube.com/watch?v=TTcU...

Finished adding tutorial prompts to the puzzle platformer I'm making for a game jam. They are input sensitive, so they change based on your keybinds and if you are using a gamepad or not! #gamedev #indiegamedev #indiegame #gamejam #unrealengine #ue5
Showcasing the workflow I set up for this puzzle game I'm making for a game jam. It's all set up so each puzzle element can call out to whatever it needs in order to activate/deactivate, allowing for quick level editing. #gamedev #indiegamedev #gamejam #unrealengine #ue5
Working on a 3D Puzzle Platformer for a game jam. You play as a time wizard who only knows one spell: Copy Self Record your actions and play them back to solve puzzles :) #gamedev #indiedev #gamejam #devlog #indiegamedev #unrealengine #ue5
