Thank you! 😊 Hope you'll enjoy playing.
Glad you like it! Well, I would say it's out of beta phase, it's a demo version showcasing the main aspects of the game. It already has three different biomes, several hours of gameplay, unlock progression etc. The full release is further down the line :)

Fires in the forge zone are dangerous but they also look kinda cool at night 🔥 #gamedev #indiedev #indiegame
I love creating games with a flat-shaded art style as it gives space for the player's brain to fill in the blanks.

More UI work. Now the action menu only shows the actions the selected unit is capable of, and the way the menu animates in changes depending on how many options there are. Oh, and added the back-facing animations for the caulisheep! #screenshotsaturday #gamedev #godot #pixelart #farmageddon

Thought I'd share a bit about the terrain editing in my little island town building game, since I haven't here. The terrain is fully editable and supports both smooth surfaces and caves and arches. It automatically makes rocks or grass depending on its shape. #indiegame #gamedev #procedural

The sprites I worked on for @empika.co.uk's cyberpunk jrpg 'JACKMOVE'! 🤖 They only look this good because lead artist and animator @joecreates.bsky.social set such an awesome bar! (and helped me loads 🤣!) #pixelart #indiedev
The atmosphere of my game 🌱
There is a special curse for SF writers. Not ‘interesting times’ but ‘may you live to see the future you wrote about.’
I think you have about 10 seconds to get the attention of players, you need some hook in those moments to make them stay and watch the rest of the trailer or at least fast forward it and look for interesting moments.
It was a trend that started on the you know... other platform (afaik). I don't know who came up with the original idea unfortunately. I think it's a fun exercise to catch the essence of a game in 3 seconds though 🙂
Haha, I know what you mean! Realism (both in terms of graphics and simulation) is impressive but isn't it nice to see things which help you escape reality. So many art styles, so many ways to create new worlds 😊
It's Unity, not relying that much on GameObjects but using quite a bit of the 2D tilemap features 🙂
You know Bluesky is really happening when you get your first sex bot spam account following you. Congratulations, you guys. We did it.
Thanks! 💚
Here's a 3-second trailer for my indie game where you-- #gamedev #indiedev #indiegame
No, only the bots are evil (or are they? they're just machines). But don't worry, sproutlings don't die, they just need to be regrown from their soul seeds so it's a bit of downtime 🙂
Sneaky drones might harm your unsuspecting sproutlings. Build some watchtowers to neutralize them! #gamedev #indiegame #indiedev

Hey I wrote a blog post It's about setting up test-levels for art direction (and more) I'm new to this blog thing so tell me honestly what you think alright?
Marigolds are in full bloom, even in the cool autumn weather 🏵️ #gardening #nature
That's 3D, the camera is tilted, the hex tiles' artwork is completely flat. Sprites which shouldn't be squished are rotated the other way to compensate. Here's how it looks with an untilted editor camera.
Also little video preview of what I'm working on ! #RacingGame #Gamedev #IndieGame
Thanks! They're the creations of Penzilla, my talented artist collaborator! penzilla.itch.io
It's a lightweight colony sim game: you build a settlement, farm crops and terraform and restore a barren planet while protecting your colony from hostile robots. Resource management is indeed a core part of gameplay. 😊
-5 years of work. -10,000+ sprites. -Hundreds of frame-by-frame animations. -Thousands of hours of testing and tweaking. That's BZZZT, my solo project with overwhelmingly positive reviews on Steam and freshly released on Switch. store.steampowered.com/app/1293170/... Demo: kodll.itch.io/bzzzt
This is beatiful, well done!
One of the things we want to do with the game is make it feel alive by adding weather effects, trees and grass and fields swaying in the wind, beach waves, etc. We're not all the way there yet, but it's getting better! #indiegamedev #godot #godotengine #retrogaming #screenshotsaturday
Sproutling settlers going about their daily lives in Green Again. 🌳 #screenshotsaturday #gamedev #indiegame
The bikes in Sable used to be like rockets, incredibly fast and hard to handle but we had to slow them down for a bunch of reasons. 1. Players struggled with them 2. It made the world feel small 3. Loading scenes in was tricky 4. Collision problems It did look cool though
Just a happy sproutling, getting hyped for the weekend! #gamedev #art
Glad to hear that Aneesh! Future updates will make the game even more enjoyable on the deck (UI/UX improvements to be expected 🙂).

statements or similar for implementing this (wouldn't recommend Unity coroutines if that's your engine though). Also make use of centralized manager/updater classes which iterate over e.g. all workers and update their state in one method instead of having an update callback per worker.
usually the player won't notice at all if something's "ticked" every x frames, every few seconds and so on. You can also divide work along several frames by limiting e.g. how many tiles are updated per frame and so on. It depends on your stack but there should be timers, coroutines, yield...
amount of sprites or particles shouldn't be a problem. Tile maps, particle systems or GPU instancing and draw call batching can help with that. Updating everything every frame in a simulation chokes the CPU on the other hand. So think about using some sort of internal update tick for your sim...
Thanks! I assume you mean not only UI like buttons and counters but the whole "view" layer that is shown on the screen. There are many ways of approaching this, and unfortunately my code is a Frankenstein's monster of several currently 😃. Unless you're doing something crazy, rendering a large...
Green Again how it started vs how it's going.✨ Prototypes used quite a bit of @kenney.bsky.social assets (was very helpful for fast iteration!), eventually it was replaced by Penzilla's awesome art (she doesn't have a bsky account yet but check out penzilla.itch.io) #indiedev #indiegame #videogames

If that's your cup of tea Green Again also has a Discord server discord.com/invite/pMFpp... I'm usually available there for a chat, you can leave feedback and there are occasional sneak peeks before updates! 🙂
In hindsight I should've added the link to the post, wasn't prepared for such engagement! 😅 But there's no way to edit so here it is store.steampowered.com/app/2718320/...
Glad you like it! PC (and Steam Deck) first. If it's a successful launch console releases are a next step 😊
Yes, sproutlings! 🌿
Haha, well I hope some players have places in their hearts for both Factorio and Green Again so there's no need to fight!
Logic is mostly decoupled from Unity's GameObjects (I use the 2D tilemap for rendering but heavyweight objects for several thousands tiles would be crazy) so I think it's similar to other tile-based games (it isn't ECS though). www.redblobgames.com/grids/hexago... is an extremely useful source :)
