Today's medium sized but important task: Added a flexible camera shake system for attacks, damage, jumping, and falling. Lots of fine-tuning ahead! Of course the intensity is fully adjustable in the settings, all the way down to zero, for accessibility.
Do you think this looks suitably thunderstorm-like? 🌩️
The Weather System is implemented with decent enough transitions between weather presets. I plan to trigger these only during story beats so that should be ok. 🌦️
I managed to severely damage my gamedev laptop.. Leaking cleaning supply bottle + tech == problem 🤦 While I resurrect my old gaming rig, let's do a #ThrowbackTuesday! Uncounted Isles screenshots from raycaster to low-res voxels to the start current look.
Initial test of the newly added sneaking mechanic! It definitely needs some indicators to show players how stealthy they are. 🤔 Stealth won’t be mandatory, but I’m planning for quests to support multiple approaches. #indiedev #gamedev #indiegame
Weekend Overhauls: Better culling, new font, notification toasts, minor UI tweaks & speech bubbles for storytelling! Heading to local indiedev event next week, then an extended weekend to wrap up that months-old mission scripting rework I never finished.
And here's the sneaking animation added to my procedural animation rig. Kinda regret not adding knee and elbow joints to the skeleton. Oh well, not going to change that one now. #indiedev #gamedev #indiegame
What a great way to start the week: Uncounted Isles just hit 400 #wishlists on #Steam!
Thank you all so much! Hitting even 50 felt ambitious when I started this #gamedev project!
I've been finishing the Uncounted Isles story, utilizing the world I built for my ttrpg sessions. While friends are reviewing it, I plan my next ~6 months of dev work. Sadly this doesn't create much social media content, but I hope to share more soon.
Yesterday I attended Talk & Play in Karlsruhe again, a local indiedev meetup! I brought my game Uncounted Isles and received valuable feedback during playtesting. I even discovered a sneaky memory leak! Now I'm considering giving a talk at the next event.
