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.

This new system lets you disarm enemies during combat and equip their gear for a strategic advantage. Every encounter is a new opportunity to adapt, upgrade, and survive.

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.

Facial expressions that hit hard! Added attack & reaction animations to make combat in Lobo: The Howl Within feel intense and immersive. Every strike, every wince—animated in Unreal Engine 5 + iClone. Let’s make every fight hurt 👊🔥

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.

Combat isn't just about hitting hard—it's about how they react! Testing hit animations, pushback, camera shake, and sounds in a basic arena to focus on juicy feedback. If it works here, it'll shine with final assets!

Happy Video Game Day!

July 8 is Video Game Day, a holiday that's obviously close to our hearts at Game Jolt.

Celebrate by completing our quests! They won't be around long, so get the rewards while you can.

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.

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.
