If I had been a little more pragmatic, I would never have been involved in game development. #solodev

Swallow chicks are dying of starvation due to sudden climate change. They simply lie down, exhausted, on the river bank and soon die. It is almost impossible to save them.

Imagine yourself as the leader of a settlement. You have the power to issue commands and make sweeping decisions, but the outcomes are not entirely in your hands. Your environment will judge whether you and your descendants are worthy of survival. #ProjectR #strategygames

Globlal map generation experiments and painted reference. It seems that finding a suitable visual straight from the head and transferring it into the stylized game takes much more time than writing any mechanics. πŸ˜“

While I was writing all sorts of algorithms for myself (mostly adapting from smarter people), I decided to start putting them into plugins. Maybe it will be useful to someone

I've been thinking about AI for the past few days and it seems like I'm going to have something in between Utility AI and GOAP. For now, I'm outlining the architecture with block diagrams and sometimes finalizing the scene to MVP. Here are some birches, for example.

The last few days I've been thinking more than doing. The conclusions from my thoughts have changed my plans. Well, at least you can enjoy these trees. Inspired by Dorfromantik. #indiegame #solodev #indiegamedev #indiedev #gamedev #strategy #dorfromantik

The hardest thing is to stop looking at what you just did. When my alpacas started walking with animations, I spent half my working day just watching 😭

They're alive! I made the most basic animations just to make something to look at while I am engaged in mechanics. This is definitely not the final result. #solodev #indiegamedev #indiedev #gamedev #strategy

Been under the weather for the past 3 days, but I still managed to whip up an outline via custom depth and create a simple fence model. Next time, I’m making the fence a bit more β€œchubby” #gamedev #alpacaproject #gamedevelopment #unrealengine #indiedev #solodev #indiegamedev

Building system made from scratch and in progress. Using shaders for grid visualization; building meshes snap to points for precise placement. #AlpacaProject #wip #gamedev #indiedev #indiegamedev #unrealengine5 #farmbuilder #solodev #alpaca #lowpoly #unlit #buildingsystem
