It's always fun to do IK rigs. Finished up a leg for a 6 limbed NPC in my indie game, its needs a bit more polishing! but almost there! #indiegame #indiedev #gamedev #indie #devlog #gameart #ue5 #digitalart #conceptart #digitalart #indieart #gamer #art #procreate #artwork #concept #dev #art #coding

Finished up some concept art for one of the boss fights in my indie game, meet MianVieth, the Goddess of Death. #indiegame #indiedev #gamedev #indie #devlog #gameart #ue5 #digitalart #conceptart #digitalart #indieart #gamer #art #procreate #artwork #concept #dev #art #coding #conceptart

Finished some enemy logic for my indie game for defense towers attacking you as you approach them, was very fun to code these lil guys. #indiegame #indiedev #gamedev #indie #devlog #gameart #ue5 #digitalart #conceptart #digitalart #indieart #gamer #art #procreate #artwork #concept #dev #art #coding

Been a minute since I posted, had to rewrite a bucket of code for my indie game, but started today getting the weapon attacks as V1s #indiegame #indiedev #gamedev #indie #devlog #gameart #ue5 #digitalart #conceptart #digitalart #indieart #gamer #art #procreate #artwork #concept #dev #art #coding

Using @valheimgame.bsky.social as a case study for my game mimicing their dungeons, where they teleport you up 2000ft, instead of creating a new level. #indiegame #indiedev #gamedev #indie #devlog #gameart #ue5 #digitalart #indieart #gamer #art #procreate #artwork #concept #dev #art #coding

Have 4 Realms, with 17 different level rewards setup for my indie game. Procedurally generated dungeons, and room rewards. #indiegame #indiedev #gamedev #indie #devlog #gameart #ue5 #digitalart #blender #conceptart #digitalart #indieart #gamer #art #unrealengine #artwork #concept #dev #art #coding

My Indie game now auto swaps floor textures using a flipbook. Long term this will make the whole dungeon use only one 2k texture. #indiegame #indiedev #gamedev #indie #devlog #gameart #ue5 #digitalart #conceptart #digitalart #indieart #gamer #art #procreate #artwork #concept #dev #art #coding

Made a line up/queue system for my indie game, where all the characters order, and then move to a table to "eat their food" #indiegame #indiedev #gamedev #indie #devlog #gameart #ue5 #digitalart #blender #conceptart #digitalart #indieart #gamer #art #procreate #artwork #concept #dev #art #coding

Built a scalable dialogue system, where you get dialogue that only gets triggered once the character likes you a certain amount. #indiegame #indiedev #gamedev #indie #devlog #gameart #ue5 #digitalart #blender #conceptart #digitalart #indieart #gamer #art #procreate #artwork #concept #dev #art

Just before i go back to working on my indie game for the next 2 years, have one of the cooler screenshots from our game jam game! #indiegame #indiedev #gamedev #indie #devlog #gameart #ue5 #digitalart #blender #conceptart #digitalart #indieart #gamer #artwork #concept #dev #art #gamejam #shader

Working on a way to process 2d VFX elements into cellshaded textures so they can match the style of my game, tested it on a game jam! #indiegame #indiedev #gamedev #indie #devlog #gameart #ue5 #digitalart #blender #conceptart #digitalart #indieart #gamer #artwork #concept #dev #art #gamejam #shader

Poster we made for our game for the #bigmode2026 game jam! Was a fun time getting this game out in 10 days with our small team! #indiegame #indiedev #gamedev #indie #devlog #gameart #ue5 #digitalart #blender #conceptart #digitalart #indieart #gamer #artwork #concept #dev #art #gamejam #jam #gamejam

Still talking a bit of a break from my indie game to do a yearly game jam. Worked on some idle animation for a living train today. #indiegame #indiedev #gamedev #indie #devlog #gameart #ue5 #digitalart #blender #conceptart #digitalart #indieart #gamer #artwork #concept #dev #art #gamejam #jam

Taking a break from my indiegame to do a game jam, starting to prep for it by remembering how to do things like this with the camera. #indiegame #indiedev #gamedev #indie #devlog #gameart #ue5 #digitalart #blender #conceptart #digitalart #indieart #gamer #artwork #concept #dev #art #gamejam #jam

Continuing to work on the storage in my indie game! Where the weapons now auto sort on the shelves so you can organize your weapons! #indiegame #indiedev #gamedev #indie #devlog #gameart #ue5 #digitalart #blender #conceptart #digitalart #indieart #gamer #art #procreate #artwork #concept #dev #art

Getting the guns, I modelled, set up to be on the shelf in my indie game. Still have to make 20 more, but got a good chunk complete! #indiegame #indiedev #gamedev #indie #devlog #gameart #ue5 #digitalart #blender #conceptart #digitalart #indieart #gamer #art #procreate #artwork #concept #dev #art

New Mini-verse storage concept art for my indie game, a container that can fit objects of any size, but stays light weight and easy to move! #indiegame #indiedev #gamedev #indie #devlog #gameart #ue5 #digitalart #blender #conceptart #digitalart #indieart #gamer #art #procreate #artwork #concept

My store in my indie game, you can now order items and they get dropped off by a drone in a box! Progress! #indiegame #indiedev #gamedev #indiegamer #ui #ue5 #blender #independentdev #unrealengine #indieart #game #gamer #drone #code #userinterface #art #precreate #userinterface #dev

Continuing to make the store in my indie game get better and better! Still a LONG way to go, but its starting to get there! #indiegame #indiedev #gamedev #indiegamer #ui #ue5 #blender #independentdev #unrealengine #indieart #game #gamer #drone #code #userinterface #art #precreate #userinterface #dev

Beginning to work on the store in my indie game as follows. A. Store auto-populates B. Some items don't unlock until certain conditions C. The items get delivered via drone. #indiegame #indiedev #gamedev #indiegamer #ui #ue5#blender #independentdev #unrealengine #indieart #game #gamer #drone #code

I finally have mocked up a concept art for my indie games store UI that I don't hate. Anyone else hate the UI part of Indie-Dev? #indiegame #indiedev #gamedev #indiegamer #devlog #ui #ue5 #digitalart #blender #independentdev #unrealengine #indieart #gamer #3dart #art #code #UI #Design #interface

First test of ordering things at a kiosk and they get dropped off by a drone in my indie game! Not bad for an initial set-up! #indiegame #indiedev #gamedev #indiegamer #devlog #ui #ue5 #digitalart #blender #independentdev #unrealengine #indieart #game #gamer #3dart #art #modelling #drone #code

Sometimes I get bored or doing indie game dev and try to redraw Victor from arcane to brush up on my art skills. Gonna post the timelapse in comment if anyone wants to see the process! #arcane #victor #colortheory #art #artist #jayvik #netflix #gloriousevolution #artist #noai #digitalart #conceptart

Meet Borb! When you order supplies in my indie game someone needs to deliver that supplies. Borb will deliver it with a lack of smile! #indiegame #indiedev #gamedev #indie #devlog #gameart #ue5 #digitalart #blender #conceptart #digitalart #indieart #gamer #art #procreate #artwork #robot #conceptart

I continue to work on concept art for my indie game while relaxing at night. Have two updated zombie concepts. #indiegame #indiedev #gamedev #indie #devlog #gameart #ue5 #digitalart #blender #conceptart #digitalart #indieart #gamer #3dart #art #procreate #digitalartist #artwork #robot #zombie #art

Rocket launcher is working! This marks the end of the weapon coding for my indie game, on to refinement, and then the next task! #indiegame #indiedev #gamedev #indiegamer #devlog #ui #ue5 #digitalart #blender #independentdev #unrealengine #indieart #game #gamer #3dart #art #modelling #zombie #code

Fine tuned the Melee and weapon switching code today, the mechanics in this game are finally starting to feel like a proper game! #indiegame #indiedev #gamedev #indiegamer #devlog #ui #ue5 #digitalart #blender #independentdev #unrealengine #indieart #game #gamer #3dart #art #modelling #zombie #code

Finished all the concept art, for the bots in my indie game, today. Check out this incredibly poorly programmed bot family #indiegame #indiedev #gamedev #indie #devlog #gameart #ue5 #digitalart #blender #conceptart #digitalart #indieart #gamer #3dart #art #procreate #digitalartist #artwork #robot

More Concept art behind the scenes for my indie game as i continue to plug away at a TON of coding in the spare hours i have! #indiegame #indiedev #gamedev #indie #devlog #gameart #ue5 #digitalart #blender #conceptart #digitalart #indieart #gamer #3dart #art #procreate #digitalartist #artwork #robot

Working on a lot of BTS stuff these days that isn't too fun to showcase, so have 3 more zombie concepts for my indie game. #indiegame #indiedev #gamedev #indie #devlog #gameart #ue5 #digitalart #blender #conceptart #digitalart #indieart #gamer #3dart #art #procreate #digitalartist #artwork #textures

A little bit more work today on some of the weapons in my indie game! 100% of the textures in the game are hand drawn. #indiegame #indiedev #gamedev #indie #devlog #gameart #ue5 #digitalart #blender #conceptart #digitalart #indieart #gamer #3dart #art #procreate #digitalartist #artwork #textures

Made some homemade explosions for the grenade, in my indie game, this weekend. Cool to see explosives finally! #indiegame #indiedev #gamedev #indiegamer #devlog #ui #ue5 #digitalart #blender #independentdev #unrealengine #indieart #game #gamer #3dart #art #modelling #zombie #cod #digitalart #code

Replaced the stand in Muzzle flash with something a bit more readable in my indie game! Maybe just a TAD to big #indiegame #indiedev #gamedev #indiegamer #devlog #ui #ue5 #digitalart #blender #independentdev #unrealengine #indieart #game #gamer #3dart #art #modelling #zombie #cod #digitalart #code

First character sheet of the 4 playable characters in my indie game! I like to get rough sketches done before diving into the 3d Modelling, as then I have reference! #indiegame #indiedev #gamedev #indie #devlog #gameart #ue5 #digitalart #blender #conceptart #digitalart #indieart #gamer #3dart #art

Lot of the same, but had to stress test the zombie vaulting with a horde to make sure it really worked in my indie game. #indiegame #indiedev #gamedev #indiegamer #devlog #ui #ue5 #digitalart #blender #independentdev #unrealengine #indieart #game #gamer #3dart #art #modelling #zombie #digitalart

Spent some time fixing my zombie window entry system, and some other backlog stuff in my indie game! #indiegame #indiedev #gamedev #indiegamer #devlog #ui #ue5 #digitalart #blender #independentdev #unrealengine #indieart #game #gamer #3dart #art #modelling #zombie #cod #digitalart #code #blueprint

There are 17 zombie types in my indie game, I originally drew quick concepts of each one, and today I spent the morning fine tuning one of them! Meet the spider zombie #indiegame #indiedev #gamedev #indie #devlog #gameart #ue5 #digitalart #blender #conceptart #digitalart #indieart #gamer #3dart #art

Window entrance code now works for my game! They now enter the window and continue chasing you! #indiegame #indiedev #gamedev #indiegamer #devlog #ui #ue5 #digitalart #blender #independentdev #unrealengine #indieart #game #gamer #3dart #art #modelling #zombie

Gotta do a bit more fine tuning to the 3Dmodel! but here is a first look at the basic zombie for my game! I am happy with the progress! #indiegame #indiedev #gamedev #indiegamer #devlog #ui #ue5 #digitalart #blender #independentdev #unrealengine #indieart #game #gamer #3dart #art #modelling #zombie

Did more 3D modelling over the weekend, and finished up 4 new guns for the game, here is a finished look at the rocket launcher for my game! #indiegame #indiedev #gamedev #indiegamer #devlog #ui #ue5 #digitalart #blender #independentdev #unrealengine #indieart #game #gamer #3dart #art #modelling

Took a break from coding today to do some asset modelling, as only one gun model in my game is currently good quality. Here is V02 of my AR. #indiegame #indiedev #gamedev #indiegamer #devlog #ui #ue5 #digitalart #blender #independentdev #unrealengine #indieart #game #gamer #3dart #art #modelling

The first #cod zombie game had a setting where sometimes the zombie would enter a crawl state instead of dying, implemented that in my game today! #indiegame #indiedev #gamedev #indiegamer #devlog #ui #ue5 #digitalart #blender #independentdev #unrealengine #indieart #game #gamer #3dart #art #zombie

The animations aren't in yet, but getting the characters to have a version of path tracing so they track the playable character feels great. #indiegame #indiedev #gamedev #indiegamer #devlog #ui #ue5 #digitalart #blender #independentdev #unrealengine #indieart #game #gamer #3dart #art

Finally have the Respawn system fully set up for my game! I think this officially wraps up the bulk of the playable character settings! #indiegame #indiedev #gamedev #indiegamer #devlog #ui #ue5 #digitalart #blender #independentdev #unrealengine #indieart #game #gamer #3dart #art
