Maybe you think you’re escaping a horde of undead soldiers. Actually, I’m tricking you—using the chase to load everything behind that ruined wall. Game dev isn’t just about what players see—it's how you hide the seams. Steal the idea, not the mechanic.

Smart loading, zero immersion break. In Lobo: The Howl Within, I’m using narrow passage mechanics to stream levels seamlessly in and out—no loading screens, just smooth exploration.

I refined the combat in Lobo: The Howl Within—smoother transitions, better animation blends, and improved camera work!

As a solo dev, I stitched together 4 animation packs from 3 creators to make it feel like one cohesive system.

Madeline is the main protagonist of the mountain climbing platformer, Celeste. The game has been praised for its visuals, gameplay, and introspective narrative. The game's creator Maddy Thorson confirmed that Madeline is trans in 2020.

Random death animations + ragdoll chaos = satisfying variety ⚔️💀 In Lobo: The Howl Within, no two enemy deaths feel the same—thanks to randomized anim montages and ragdoll physics. It’s messy. It’s fun. It’s game dev.

Maybe you can block enemy attacks... But if you run out of stamina? You’re stunned. Time it perfectly though, and you trigger a counter that knocks enemies back—giving you space to reposition or fight others.

Not every door in Lobo: The Howl Within is meant to be opened… Some require keys, quests, or ancient light-fueled lore. Others? They’re not keeping you out—they’re keeping something in.

Here’s a look at the new door interaction system.

Dive into the cozy post-apocalyptic open world of Critter Cove!

Gentleman Rat Studios (@GR-Rob ) describe it as “a little bit Animal Crossing, a little bit Stardew Valley. Maybe even a little bit Windwaker, too."

Need a break from the madness? 🔥🪑 Now in Lobo: The Howl Within, you can rest at campfires, chairs, or cozy beds to recover your vitals faster. Resting places are in—and they’re essential for survival.
