Looting corpses strips them and they fade out with a gravemarker. Any corpse left for the full in-game day/night cycle rots away leaving a skull and no loot. #indiedev #solodev youtube.com/watch?v=WOxcPGxv…

Wanted to do something productive today so I made a prototype called "Who nose?" 🐽👃🐮 Guess which animal the nose belongs to. I probably won't release it, I just wanted to make something & learn something new. Few hours well spent! 😂 #gamedev #indiedev

Is it that time again? Nope, it’s a few days past that time, I’m the last to arrive at my little corner of the internet for my (slightly) regular monthly dev log. As always, I’ll discus…

This might be AlextheDev's greatest project yet... Player 3 has entered the game. I meant to share the news sooner, but I’ve been a little busy. If you didn’t know—I was having (and now have) a beautiful baby boy!👶💙 Gamedev may slow, but I’ve got a solid excuse 😅

There's no time to waste in Crickety Split. Hesitate or hop too slow and you'll be eaten by the giant frog on your tail... If you're not fast you're frog food! Get hopping: Google Play: bit.ly/CricketySplit App Store: bit.ly/46pYwI6 #gamedev #indiedev #indiegame

Now this is just what I wanted to see on my first week back... Button Pusher has been performing surprisingly well over the break with downloads steadily increasing every week 🥳 #gamedev

Luckily there’s not much of a rush to get this done - I think it just stops me from updating the apps rather than removing them altogether, so I’ll sort this out in my spare time.

It would be rude to make my return to gamedev without writing a devlog bringing you up to speed: alexthedev.co.uk/2025/06/30/… 🎮 New game 🦗 My first mobile game is getting a remaster 🎯 New goals set Glad to be back 💪 #gamedev #indiedev #devlog
