Preview of items/spacecraft modules am currently preparing to add to AstraX very soon 👀 #gamedev #solodev #pixelart
I doubt it, jalapenos are typically bulky, these here arent. Would be nice though for sure 😁
aaah I want some!! 😂 the ones growing in the pic are thinner and long, like mini pepperoni, although its leaves look more like a jalapeno than a pepperoni plant. I think its a weird (accidental?) hybrid tbh
When you buy a "jalapeno chili joloba" and its fruit are longish thin and neon YELLOW

cant wait to play btw!! 😀
Hey hey. Finally got a new build up on itch with the elemantal damage system, Butler enemy and a few other small things. If ya wanna try it out, head on over and give it a download 😁 Usual warning of bugs and WIP content applies 😂 #Godot #indiedev #gamedev #roguelike #solodev
awesome, can't wait to see how that works out!!
Oh I meant gameplay as in balancing wise, considering larger distances between resources or buildings 🤔 But I guess you're on it already 😂
looks beautiful! although I wonder how well such large-scaled terrain plays out gameplay-wise 🤔
a tiny step closer to the full 0.7 release 😂 Thank you so much!
Back to developing AstraX 💪 Break was pretty good Bookmarks now work globally across huge distances, can be created/removed, both central compass & top right list displays their general direction. Still buggy but almost complete 😊 #solodev #indiedev #gamedev
aww that is so wholesome ❤️
thank you appreciate it 🙏
👀 it could go really well in your case (genre match and all) but its still a gamble... fingers crossed!!
Probably 🤣
so its not you but the error handling (or lack thereof) of the engine...🤨 Godot pls fix yo shit smfh🙄
Hooowww what are you doing smh 😂
Looks like the source is called K-On!
I faintly remember this being a clip from an anime but id have to dig to find out 🤔
Thank you Noelle 🙏❤️
Supergiant Games has never missed. Here’s why they’re the indie studio I recommend the most. #gamingindustry #gamedev #indiedev #hades
I've been working on the lighting system for Kinfolk a little bit over the past week. It's nothing crazy, but it sure is purdy. Still need to resolve a few issues though! WISHLIST KINFOLK: store.steampowered.com/app/3651240/... #gamedev #indiegame #pixel #art #gameart #vga
Am trying, thank you Kez 🙏
Its always like that when its your first try with a mew tech 😅 it gets easier over time
Hope so too thank you Jil ❤️🙏
Please 😔 thank you
Ok so #graphics folks if you have any references for doing frustum culling with reversed-z (where the frustum is infinite) I'd love to know about them!
Not having the greatest day today, hope you guys are doing well ❤️
oh boy, the best example right there💀
Hey Firefox users.
#gamedev sometimes do be like that 😅
Looks much better already! I like the debris laying around
this is going to look impressive indeed once its done, you're getting there 💪
Twitter then???😂 LinkedIn has been atrocious like that for a while...
LinkedIn? 🤣
Picked up Starbound again and forgot how much of an inspiration it has been for AstraX 💪 just what I needed too
its better that way 👍 good luck and a successful grind to you!!
It finally happened.
ooo I like the interactivity of this!
Looks tasty!! enjoy 💪
Pics that make you go HM🤣
It happens 😅
Youre busy making something awesome 💪
The feds are having a field day🫣
I heard you fellas like video games? Here are some rich penguins at a Christmas market Also, I've recovered fully from the flu, so I'm back in business with more game development! So stay tuned! #gamedev #indiedev #gaming #cozygaming #Wholesome #indiegames
💀 well it works in both directions for better or for worse...
Daily reminder that you are the CEO of your own life 💪 #solodev #indiedev
Just gotta look at steamDB to find those that never made it and study them 🤪 One case i studied the dev had an unprofessional reaction to constructive player feedback which put the single bad review it had into perspective 🫣 game had AA/AAA prod quality and flopped... dont do this 🫣
😂revenge against the mopholes: fighting cleaning fluid with electricity ⚡⚡⚡
Made a lightning stone. And of course had to add conductivity to all the liquids. So now if something (like an enemy getting hit with lightning damage, or the lightning stone) shocks a liquid the electricity will travel through it. Works with oil, water...blood 😈 #Godot #indiedev #gamedev
thank you so much 🙏
Listen up indies! If you are working on a racing game, I found a very useful site as vehicle physics reference: www.asawicki.info/Mirror/Car%2... It goes into detail with traction, wheel friction, transmission & more. Knowing the basics helps with gamifying them 🙌 #indiedev #gamedev #solodev
Hey folks, check out this curated list of Steam Games made by Irish devs, or that are playable in Irish 🔥 Go give it a follow, there's awesome new games added all the time 😁 #indiedev #gamedev #games #indiegame #videogame #steam
😂 thank you Jil appreciate it
my bad 😂
True that 😆💪
sure is 🤓 I do have a little productivity boost cause im reusing a few assets from another rally game prototype I did a while back
Thank you!! Glad the hard work is showing 😂
Custom car simulation take 2 with sound on! Doing some rounds around the test map, showing off a test interior and early transmission #indiedev #solodev #racing #godot
of course I recorded that without sound, lemme try again...💀
Early engine sound implementation plus textured car interior test 🏎️💨 Working on a custom car simulation with realistic transmission, its still missing wheel friction that reduces engine RPM 🤔 Getting there slowly but steady #solodev #racing #indiedev #godot
AstraX is a space exploration game inspired by the likes of KSP, Rimworld, Freelancer and Space Engineers. Create your own spacecraft, explore an infinite galaxy and mine for resources! #PitchYaGame
No new pictures, where are you mentally
backseat troubleshooting 💯💯💯
Sup #gamedev Bluesky! 👋 I'm resuming signups for my Starter Pack for LGBTQ+ & Ally Game Developers!!! 🏳️🌈 We have ~100 slots left to fill!!! go.bsky.app/4Yq3c2S Repost and reply if you want in!🫡
Would love to be included if there is still space! Thank you for making this 🙏
Nice!! happy to hear you got it working
Post an opening/ending theme song that, in your country's dubbing, has surpassed the original. Germany had the best Sailor Moon Opening, i don´t make the rules. Every other nation can´t compete with it! www.youtube.com/watch?v=Dnkx...
Such is life of a game dev 🤣
Some of my favorite people to follow here are new game devs, especially when I see them learn and progress over months or years. Making games is hard. It takes grit and love. Most hobbyists seem to give up on it quickly, and I don’t judge them one bit, but it’s delightful to see people persevere
I'm sure you'll figure it out 👍
these effects are coming along nicely!! That debug output sure looks handy 😂
Ive been asking myself the same question 😂 as far as I know, their only downside is they can ge dirty really quick
kneaded erasers are good for the paper too, prevents the surface from getting damaged too fast
Well someone had to write prompts for that so worse enough i guess...
30k wishlist is nuts 🤯 congratulations!!!
You have to do something manually before you can e.g. automate it with tools you create. Knowing the processes in and out helps with specializing and refining them. Kinda like sculptors create their own chisels to shape clay AI (as advertised by altman & co) is no such tool 😝
ooo this is good 💣
Haven't had a lot of of visual stuff to show lately. But here's an attempt to make the damage element explosions a little more crunchy and satisfying to pull off. Have a great weekend 😎 #screenshotsaturday #indiedev #gamedev
This is so useful!! Also shhh @hedgeknightgd.bsky.social 👀
Those tend to break if you add huge changes unfortunately 😅 its possible but difficult to come up with a saving mechanism where the chance of breaking is greatly reduced
I've needed to make this tool for a while, but kept putting it off. It's a tool for quickly adding/editing translation keys/text without needing to go mess with my CSV file directly. I can even preview how they'll appear in a RichtextLabel! It's ugly, but it works! 🎉 #godot #gamedev #indiegame
damn aphids need to stay off my lawn- errr, moon
Thank you so much, appreciate it!! Let's hope so, need to get my account verified as well 🤔
I am currently snitching this other dev's game. if you click the category in this video, it takes you to the nameclash game, and not my own. Yes I did contact YT support and they asked me to provide screenshots (even though I did) 💀
Help a solo dev out please? Can you see this page and cast your voting on it? www.igdb.com/games/astrax... The more people vote, the faster approved. Its a name change request. Currently you cannot pick YT/Twitch category as my AstraX does not show up on because of a nameclash with another game
Thank you Kez 🙏
Im not here to find employment. I want to show the world what i create. I want people to play and enjoy the games I make joy as much as i enjoy making them. If anyone (employers or others) find this profile & do not like what I post, i don't care. In fact, i want them to leave #solodev
Development of AstraX is on hold for a little. May have gone overboard implementing navigation bookmarks here, which I almost completed. Working on the rally game until my batteries are recharged 💪
Silksong was developed the way it was because the developer didn't have to worry about money. The only way you get more games developed like Silksong is if Universal Basic Income becomes a thing.
I don't want to just live, I want to thrive. Create the circumstances that allow me to do that Whenever life hit hard, I'd return to gamedev in one way or the other
The downside of healing is all the friends you leave behind that yet have to do that work themselves, or simply decide not to. They either subconsciously hold you down or distance themselves from you. You outgrow them, they outgrow you. Works both ways
get well soon 🙏 Hope you're currently as cozy as your game, it looks great!
Yes I did! idk how well this approach fares with more complex/nested UI, it should do well _in theory_. You are welcome, hope you figure something out that works for you!
