which of these 2 tree wind animations do you think is better? the left one is more realistic and the right one is more stylized. #gamedev #IndieGameDev #indiedev #rpg #stylized

@SydneyLWatson so it’s ok for you to say you hate muslims every other tweet. but not ok for a muslim to say they hate you. why?

@SydneyLWatson appreciate you clarifying. however, you’re wrong that we can’t leave. i’m muslim, i was raised muslim, and i believe in my faith, and i wouldn’t leave it, not because someone is forcing me. and i don’t hate non-muslims (contrary to the clip you shared).

@SydneyLWatson yea youre right. in some islamic countries that does happen. but not all. also, the people who resort to violence are the few, not the many. if the religion was to blame, then all muslims would be doing this, but we don’t. some people are just violent. regardless of religion

I've decided to do a minor pivot with the game. Still RPG elements, but not quite an open world. More details to come as I finalize things. In the meantime, enjoy this oldie - enchanted forest #IndieGameDev #Videogame #RPG #Scenery #adventure #indiedev

these purple trees were unintentional. they actually have different colors based on where they are in the scene. must be some sort of shader mess-up. at least they look nice 🤷‍♂️ #indiegamedeveloper #videogames #GamingCommunity #trees #Scenic

So I've decided to significantly reduce scope for the game. It will have elements of an RPG but will mainly revolve around boss fights. I will hopefully expand on that over time #IndieGameDev #Videogame #RPG #Scenery #adventure #indiedev

so the reason I started working on UI originally was to add effect icons. for example, when doing a ground slam, the enemies get stunned. now the UI will reflect the stun status on the enemy #IndieGameDev #Videogame #RPG #Scenery #adventure #indiedev

the amount of work this took is still hurting my head. I made quivers dynamic, you can 'use' arrows with a quiver in the inventory, or, 'equip' arrows if a quiver is equipped to the player (which just adds the arrows to the quiver). #gamedev #archery #Arrow #IndieGameDev #gaming

things I can do easily now with animancer: 1. fast jumps - jump as soon as landing 2. switching animation avatar mask at run-time (switch idle attack animation to moving attack animation dynamically) this kind of stuff gives so much developer satisfaction. #animation #gamedev
