Some WIP animation work for Smoke and Steel

Make ready! ... Present! ... FIRE! #gamedev #indiedev

Heights finally matter in Smoke and Steel! They affect line of sight, targeting, and, of perhaps more importantly, combat results. Please, think twice before charging uphill ;) #gamedev #indiedev

The Swedish Empire was the first to deal morale damage just by getting dressed. Work in progress :) #gamedev #indiedev

New scenarios call for new features! ❄️ Introducing blizzards for the Battle of Narva. Still a work in progress! #gamedev #indiedev #smokeandsteel

Just as fun as it is to make the game itself, is reading up on and using historical references. Two of my biggest hobbies perfectly aligned #gamedev #indiedev

Views slowed down now, but that was crazy.

So IGN picked up Smoke and Steel. Honestly awesome! www.youtube.com/watch?v=c0u1...

On this day in 1708, the Battle of Lesnaya cost Sweden vital supplies intended for Charles XII's army. What if those supplies had made it through? 🤔 In the Smoke and Steel story campaign, you'll be able to explore how the Great Northern War might have unfolded differently. #gamedev #indiedev

I've been working on Smoke and Steel since 2023, and today I get to share its official gameplay trailer! Turn-based tactical battles meet grand strategy in early 18th-century Europe. #gamedev #indiedev Have a look: youtu.be/mVUucenWCx8

1,500 wishlists for Smoke and Steel! I never got around to celebrating 1,000 because it went by so quickly. Thank you all! To celebrate, I've shared a closer look at the grand campaign, from regions and taxes to supply lines: store.steampowered.com/news/app/414... #gamedev #indiedev

If I suddenly stop posting.. it's because Hollywood offered me a directing job. #gamedev #indiedev

Sometimes when I'm working on Smoke and Steel this banger comes on. True test of dedication not to drop all work and download Morrowind again. #gamedev #indiedev www.youtube.com/watch?v=6XJC...

Tooltips inspired by Paradox games? Nooo, not at all... 😳 #gamedev #indiedev

Reworking combat in Smoke and Steel to put more emphasis on linear warfare. Here, Swedish troops break through the Danish line. It's really hard to tell from a short video though. #gamedev #indiedev

Good thing about working on the trailer is that it forces me to update long overdue rivers! #gamedev #indiedev #strategygame

The year is 1700. War is on the horizon. A sneak peek at the upcoming Smoke and Steel gameplay trailer! I'm developing this turn-based strategy game solo, combining nation management with tactical battles across early 18th-century Europe. #gamedev #indiedev

The first proper look at (small) battles in Smoke and Steel! 10 minutes of raw turn-based gameplay, commanding France against Prussia. Still a work in progress, of course! www.youtube.com/watch?v=xDug... #gamedev #indiedev #wargaming

As more regions are added to the grand campaign, I think I'll need to redesign the borders to make them clearer 👀 #gamedev #indiedev

Cheat sheets in games, would you feel that it's like cheating? #indiedev #gamedev #wargaming

Current focus: roads (Sorry Karlskrona) #gamedev #indiedev

What do y'all think about using cards to represent actions, instead of say, ability buttons? I've heard from a fellow gamedev friend that Steam players are generally against it? #gaming #gamedev #indiedev

Updated looks on the first scenario! Does this work, or is the screen to cluttered with information? #gamedev #indiedev #strategygames

We're now live on Steam! 🥳💂‍♂️ Wishlist Smoke and Steel today: store.steampowered.com/app/4142560/... #gamedev #indiedev #wargaming

Priorities atm: Finish up the two first historical scenarios, Humlebæk (July 1700) and Narva (November 1700), then continue work on the grand campaign.

I honestly didn't know much about this often skipped part of the GNW before. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Landing...

Having developers behind some of my favourite games notice the game I'm making is a pretty surreal feeling. #gamedev #indiedev

There are the nations we're starting off with in the alpha. Two and a half, or so, are done! #gamedev #indiedev

Official Smoke and Steel Discord is live 🎉 Join for discussions and updates #gamedev #indiedev discord.gg/Wb7XBsGr8w

Screenshot from a 1v1 PvP in the alpha tonight #gamedev #indiedev #wargaming

Could be the best feeling when people like playing what you've been creating for so long. Yesterday we had a 1.5h 2v2 PvP battle, and it was fun. #gamedev #indiedev

This is Charles XII. He became King of Sweden at just 15 years old. Three years later, Sweden was invaded by a coalition of its neighbors.

Working on some English units this #screenshotsaturday 💂‍♂️ #indiedev #gamedev #unity #solodev

It's finally time to make this project public. Announcing Smoke and Steel, a game I've developing for quite some time 🎉⭐ Turn-based wargame with battles and campaigns. #GameDev #IndieDev @smokesteelgame.bsky.social Read more: www.smokeandsteelgame.com

Just a little something I'm cooking to speed up #unity UI Toolkit development #GameDev #IndieDev

Been a while since I posted anything, this one is short but hopefully useful for someone out there! #GameDev

⭐ Thungsten Grid was just updated (2025.09.27a) with a minor feature requested a user: Features - Added property _Offset to offset the grid by a set amount, in both Local and World spacing modes. #gamedev #unity3d assetstore.unity.com/packages/vfx...

A small update, 2025.08.11.a is coming up for Thungsten Grid. It is currently pending Unity approval: Fixes: - Correctly excluded editor-only scripts from builds. Improvements: - Improved UI with helpful links. assetstore.unity.com/packages/vfx...

Crazy how I loved Decisive Battles on the History Channel, but never heard of Time Commanders. They both used Rome: Total War for visuals. Amazing concept! www.youtube.com/watch?v=WNeJ...

Been silent for a while on here, working on assets, new as well as updates. Hope you all are having a great summer! 💚🌞 #indiedev

Unpopular #GameDev opinion that you actually believe? 🤔 I'll go first: Most games don't need procedural generation, in fact it can make the game seem "cheap" if it's too big a part of the whole effort. Your turn #IndieDev

Made a bunch of sound effects for this project last year. Demo released today. Quite fun Vampire Survivors-like. store.steampowered.com/app/3694300/...
