Question: Too much or not enough Answer: Yes #screenshotsaturday #gamedev #indiedev

5AM. Told myself I would stop making Steam screenshots. Made another one. #ScreenshotSaturday #gamedev #indiegame #indiedev

This gameplay screenshot was taken when Lurker would aggressively charge the player. Since then I've changed his behavior. He now stalks from a distance, avoids your car, and waits for the right moment to strike. So I reworked the screenshot concept to better reflect how he plays. #gamedev #indiegame #indiedev #gamedevlog

Unlike yesterday's screenshot, this one wasn't staged in Unity. It's from actual gameplay. It started as one of the many screenshots I take while playing the game at night, then I refined it for the upcoming Steam page. #gamedev #indiegame #indiedev #gamedevlog

This is how I created one of the screenshots for my upcoming Steam page. A surprising amount of work goes into making a single screenshot tell a story. #gamedev #indiegame #indiedev #gamedevlog

Is this what they call an idle game? #ScreenshotSaturday #gamedev #indiedev #madewithunity

Development Log - April 2026 This month was all about pushing gameplay, performance, and overall feel. Everything moves closer to one goal: fun, challenging, and smooth - even on mid-tier rigs. Most of the footage is captured on an RTX 2070 Super - that's a 7-year-old GPU. Really appreciate all the support and the great people I've connected with this month. Highlights: Enemies & Combat • 3 new Hunters with unique pressure mechanics: Lurker, Core, Surge • 1 new Elite enemy: Gunner • 27 unique enemy designs across Hunters, Elites, Specials, and standard enemies - more on the way • Expanded Special enemy abilities: Exploders, Radioactive, Runners, Ranged, Electric and Hybrids • New ability: Jump Boost (mobility aggressive combos) • Reworked Hunter behavior to counter vertical gameplay (no more safe high ground) Systems & Features • Weapon customization (attachments, mags, skins - all lootable) • New Daylight lighting full day/night support across all procedurally generated maps Polish & Performance • Major performance improvements across core systems • New and updated VFX, SFX, and music More to come in May. #indiedev #gamedev #indiegame #devlog
