Big big update coming when I hit 600 followers!! #gamedev #indiegames #narrative #gameengine #indiegames #vn #vndev #visualnovel

So taking a week off production of Mammut allowed me to review the feedback from users and think about how people will make games with the engine. There are dozens of little components of the engine some well written, others not so, but all important to the product experience. Mammut is now less..

Over the past week I've had to focus on another project that needed my attention. That project wraps up today, I'm looking forward to jumping back into Mammut. Hello to all the new followers!!!

OK by a little something I meant a 35-page guide to some scene direction stuff complete with video examples. It covers some basics for working with sprites, framing and balancing scenes, shifting focus, and translating actions. I hope it's OK! #visualnovel #vndev www.patreon.com/just_a_carro...

Today I focused on the backgrounds for the visual novel even though the background you see isn’t finished yet! @projectmammut.bsky.social #pixelart #devlog #digitalart #pixelartist #gameasset #gamedev #indiegame #indiegamedev #lookingpixelart #pixelartistlookingwork #2Dart

Version 0.6.1 is now out! For this next period there will only be bug fixes and templating going on. For 0.7.0 I will be focusing on accessibility. I would love to hear from people who use these features. #gamedev #indiegames #narrative #gameengine #indiegames #vn #vndev #visualnovel

Later today will mark version 0.6.0 going live. From this point the focus will be on templates to help non coders. With an aim to getting as many of you just jumping in without any friction. #gamedev #indiegames #narrative #gameengine #indiegames #vn #vndev #visualnovel

Meet Gumbert, You will see more of him and his friends later. Thanks to @rossydoesdrawings.bsky.social And their goblin spawning powers. #gamedev #indiegames #narrative #gameengine #indiegames #vn #vndev #visualnovel

Version 0.5.20 just dropped, *Scenes can now have scripts that are shared *Sub scenes are now set up *Characters can now have subscenes assigned *improved UI layout for the file manager #gamedev #indiegames #narrative #gameengine #indiegames #vn #vndev #visualnovel

Just did a talk at a game dev Meetup about Mammut. And after my talk, the next speaker was one of the developers of Fungus (the dialogue system used in Dream Daddy and more) Feelt very humbled. A++ would do again. #gamedev #indiegames #narrative #gameengine #indiegames #vn #vndev #visualnovel

Today I added a particle system to the game engine. It's pretty basic, but I will send more time with it down the line to add more features etc. But for now it's good enough for rain, snow., falling blossoms etc. #gamedev #indiegames #narrative #gameengine #indiegames #vn #vndev #visualnovel

Version 0.5.19 is out now, with some more UI fixes and quality of life updates suggested by @lazuriteraccoon.bsky.social on our Discord. If you want to help develop a great game engine come join us! #gamedev #indiegames #narrative #gameengine #indiegames #vn #vndev #visualnovel

Project mammut will be keeping an eye on you too!

Si estáis interesados/as/es en crear visual novels y os agobia escribir código con Ren'py, Project Mammut promete ser una buena alternativa. Ha salido hace poco y está en beta pero pinta muy prometedor, voy a seguirle la pista:

Just got in some custom pulp scifi characters for demoing some Mammut features down the line. Many thanks to: @sirjavier.bsky.social linktr.ee/SirJavier (18+ content) Looking forward to putting them into a game! #gamedev #indiegames #narrative #gameengine #indiegames #vn #vndev #visualnovel

Just pushed v.0.5.18 - Lots of UI and quality of life fixes We are fast approaching v 0.6 which will focus on templates and just getting new users hitting the ground running without code etc. Also a new video today! #gamedev #indiegames #narrative #gameengine #indiegames #vn #vndev #visualnovels

Welcome to all the new followers! We are nearly at 400! Since launching only 2 weeks ago we have gotten a lot of attention and questions. Today is a content day, I want to get some tutorials out todays as well as maybe record a live stream (depending on the weather)

One of the things I wanted to ensure I had, was a way for people to make templates, splash screens, and examples for others to use. So I finally added mammut packs, an easy way to sharing of ideas within the engine. #gamedev #indiegames #narrative #gameengine #indiegames #vn #vndev #visualnovels

Further work on with the animator, Made some fixes and added some minor features. It still had work to do, but it's cool to see what I can make it do. #gamedev #indiegames #narrative #gameengine #indiegames #vn #vndev #visualnovels

Testing the game engine's new animator. I have placed it into the engine for user testing, while there are some small issues, it works well enough for cutscenes and splash screens. #gamedev #indiegames #narrative #gameengine #indiegames #vn #vndev #visualnovels

A few weeks since launch, ad I am getting a steady 18 people per day using the engine. Also the click through rate is neat 5% which is also good. Still no ratings at this point... hint hint :D #gamedev #indiegames #narrative #gameengine #indiegames #vn #vndev #visualnovels

Did a bunch of reworking on the splash screen system. You can turn on/off the engine splash screens (these will always be optional) and add your own easily. You can also preview the splash screens scenes while editing them. #gamedev #indiegames #narrative #gameengine #indiegames #vn #vndev

Spent the last few hours doing a UI cleanup on scene editor. And adding functionality to the curve editor so you can preview your animation curves easily. #gamedev #indiegames #narrative #gameengine #indiegames #vn #vndev

Just finished recording the next video tutorial. Now my least favourite part, listening to my voice for an hour while I edit it together gah😢 #gamedev #indiegames #narrative #gameengine #indiegames #vndev

Would anyone be interested in a live stream showing how to make games with Mammut and answer any of your questions? #gamedev #indiegames #narrative #gameengine #indiegames #vndev
