Hello, everyone!
In this devlog, I'll be sharing my updated approach for crafting adversaries and additional characters within my video game using Character Creator, iClone and Unreal Engine 5.

Every good adventure hides something behind a waterfall. In Lobo, when you reach the bridge, you’ll spot a small hint, easy to miss, but hard to forget.
Follow it, and you might just uncover something special. Exploration will be rewarded.
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.
Heavy attacks come at a cost.
In Lobo, using brute force puts enemies into aggro mode — drawing their full attention and making the fight harder. Sometimes charging in isn't the best move… or is it?
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.
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.
Game Jolt Colors is back!
Draw your OC (or favorite character) in the Game Jolt color palette and post them in the Art realm with the tag #GameJoltColors25.
At the end of the event, we'll pick a winner & add their design to the GJ Colors sticker pack!
Should you kill every enemy you see? In Lobo: The Howl Within, leaving dead bodies behind can trigger enemy investigations. They’ll warn others and form mini hordes to track you down. Sometimes stealth > strength. What’s your playstyle?
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.
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."

Lighting, scale, and mood guide players into a world of mystery.
No Lumen. No Nanite. Just global illumination, LODs, and optimized geometry—crafted for performance and atmosphere.
Are you ready for your next adventure?
