Tom Waters - Shallow Thinking Games

I love making oldschool game textures and I have a few packs out now which you can get on my @itch.io or @ko-fi.com stores, including the popular free pack Brutal Base. shallowthinking.itch.io ko-fi.com/shallowthink... #indiedev #gamedev #lowpoly #gameassets #noai #pinnedpost #salespost

Spheres are working now too. For simulating damage to a mech's ball bearings. #gamedev

See some of you later?

I forgot to mention that this is in the itch Halloween sale, as it's the spookiest thing I currently have. It's good for less spooky purposes too! shallowthinking.itch.io/doomed-dimen... #indiedev #gamedev #pixelart #noai

I think i did it! Responsive card container that works with any Control (as long as they are all of the same size) in less than 100 lines!! #Godot #GameDev #Ui

Less angry-posting about blatantly obvious ragebait images, more posting stuff you've made.

Not enough games have "a new tight space" in the update notes.

Edgerunners II is constantly going to Night City locations where notable 2077 NPCs should be and then not showing them. I don't want them to have a conversation or anything but would it kill them to show the right bartender? (This is my most Toxic Star Wars Fan style take about this show.)

It's called cuck coding now by the way.

Did you know, you can put a slideshow animation on the doors in your game, if there's something not right with you? I'm just providing the door textures though. You have to do the animation yourself. shallowthinking.itch.io/ultra-urban-... #indiedev #gamedev #animation #stupidJokePost #leveldesign

Remembering Tony Hart, born this day in 1925.

1k pixels for 1k followers tbh that's a number i try not to think about because it makes me anxious, but thank you so much to every single person for enjoying my art. it means more than you know. #pixelart #art #ドット絵 #neonmoonlight

Here's a better example of how the engine runs out of colours to make fog shades and ends up with areas of solid colour. (You may have noticed I have a bit of a thing for old, imperfect, graphics techniques 😅)

You can now sign up for our Karl Kopinski fundraiser on MMF! Many creators have decided to join us to help Karl with his medical expenses. Get your hands on a brand new Trench Crusade miniature and help out an artist who has done so much for the hobby! www.myminifactory.com/frontier/kar...

Thinking that it's about time to start working seriously on a new game, so I dusted off this old terrain engine prototype I used for texture practice, added a model loader / renderer and put down this structure thingy as a test. Going to try build this into a full game environment. #lowpoly #gamedev

We are deeply saddened by the passing of Richard “Levelord” Gray. From his legendary work on Duke Nukem 3D to the countless players and developers he inspired, Richard leaves behind a lasting legacy. Rest in peace, Levelord.

History has lessons to teach us, because some of us just aren't thinking about our feature lists hard enough nowadays.

I haven't really made a point of this, but you can hire me to do games stuff for you! I've been working in games for about 25 years and have done all kinds of things in that time. I'm primarily a designer but I've worn an environment artist hat on occasion too.

Product idea: caps lock key with Brian Blessed’s face on it

Amazing 3d artist right here! ⤵️

I made a sky for DOOM using the Gale Crater panorama from Mars that NASA recently released! It felt rather fitting.

Thunder Helix is ON SALE for one more day - and this new, and very serious, scenario mission is coming soon !! store.steampowered.com/app/1906230/... #lowpoly #flightsim #gamedev #steam 🚁 🐪

The Thunder Helix engine has a feature I ripped from Quake 1 - the 'impulse' command. It lets you send an integer into the mission script. I'm using it to measure the distance from the player to the 'disarming facility'. Gonna fly around and pick out hiding spots at a fixed distance. #gamedev

Speaking of shitposts, I still have no idea if anyone other than me has ever finished my terrible game from last years 7DFPS jam. I promise when I release an actual game it will be a lot better than this which is, as mentioned, terrible. shallowthinking.itch.io/there-is-no-...

This news is important because all the fucks out there actively attempting to wreck the world want you to think that the work is hopeless and just mitigating the worst case scenario. It's not. Fucking keep going.

Something AI is responsible for that doesn't get enough talk: How, when it scrapes a website to illegally steal everything on it, it uses up a ton of its bandwidth allotment, crashing it or racking up massive fees for site owners.

the gargantuan number of games released each day is great. just means I can buy a wholesale stock at the autumnal farmers market and store them in my cellar to get through the hard winter each year

Hey, you there! Not only is FITS2 on a big discount for the next couple of weeks, we've also got an exciting update planned very soon, AND all the recent reviews are good, so treat yourself. What else are you going to spend $10.39 on? An Amazon basics wire stripper and crimping tool? Get real!
