This is a big deal. Me, talking about development behind the scenes of Devastation 1 & 2 on #Steam, how I came to be a #gamedev, my inspirations and learning. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0MLDs1l1P94

I just built a new Weapon for Virvius. I called it the Photon Cannon. The weapon animates by opening up and the spinning rotor fires off plasma then closes after with the rotor spinning down. #shooter #gamedev #gamedevelopment #indie #indieDev #retro
