This is a fascinating video if you're into #GameDev or #programming... Using Signed Distance Fields to make a GAME ENGINE? Honestly, the results are so far incredible, and opens a whole host of new gameplay mechanics! www.youtube.com/watch?v=il-T...

I'm making a game engine based on dynamic signed distance fields (SDFs)

Animal Crackers *ALPHA* now available on Meta Horizons World (mobile friendly, no VR headset needed). I love where this is headed. Hand drawn art, plus a fun race to watch. Take a look... soak in the vibe. Where should it go next? horizon.meta.com/world/101621... #indiedev #gamedev #horizonworlds

These city buildings feel like a giant mechanism. The hypnotic movement works so well with two colors. I like it!Placeholder becomes production. Let’s go. Longest Walk launches 3/27 #gamedev

Longest Walk is a game I’m currently working on. Here are some progress pics.

Some years ago, I built this Dog Bark game. It's such a funny little half baked game jam gam. There's so many things I love about it. It might be one worth revisiting. #gamedev #phaser

More studies in automated voice for games. My friend Joules was able to record this in pretty much one take! Amazing! Go hear the automated voices with your own ears here... www.sadjoy.com/talky #gamedev #wip

Tandem Pogo Stick animation.

I own an old tandem bike, it's scary to ride on. While discussing it with my friend, the idea of a tandem pogo stick came up. Would it be stacked like bunk beds, side by side or traditional tandem style. I was thinking this would be a fun game mechanic. #gamedev #inventions #sketchbook

For Fingerholers I thought it’d be fun to have talking characters. I was imagining the character voices from the arcade game APB. My initial recordings let to me thinking I could just line up a bunch of syllables and smash them together. This is the initial result. www.sadjoy.com/talky

I’ve had this game concept for a while. It’s your standard spaghetti kissing game mechanic. You start by eating a big plate of spaghetti then, as you get to the end of your noodle, you realize there’s a character on the other end! That’s when you decide to smooch or not.

I love developing games. Building for the Playdate is an absolute blast. This gif captures the vision for Tony Maloney.
