i have 30 hours on this game character belongs to

One week ago I felt motivated to try making an untitled jigsaw puzzle game. All the functional stuff is done, I just need to polish it up now. Here's a first draft of the title screen. #gamedev #indiegames

Today coded the "hint" system. When you are stuck on a puzzle, it automatically snaps together two pieces for you. Useful for those who just want a relaxing puzzle-solving experience. Those who don't use hints will be rewarded. #gamedev #indiegames

In the past 24 hours I went from a blank project to a fully customizable jigsaw puzzle game, written in my own game engine. Needs more work before releasing it, but super excited for people to play it when it's ready! #gamedev #indiegames

Our website is once again redesigned!

Trust me, I have more ideas for new games aside from just remaking my old stuff. I really want to make new things. But the Snowball port is gonna be a quick one.

Snowball's signature attack now works in my custom game engine. Didn't take long, but spent way too much time really hung up on a minor detail. Physics! #gamedev #indiedev #indiegames

Getting back into things, a small test: porting Snowball to my custom game engine. Slopes weren't as difficult to implement as I had feared. Goal is to remake the game by Christmas. #gamedev #indiedev #indiegames

New Project - Anton's Home Movies

Jul 26

I wanted to look back at my home movies and see what inspired me to make games in the first place, hoping that would cure my creative burnout. I found that the videos themselves were also fun to watch, so I'm uploading them to a new channel (link in desc).

New Project - Anton's Home Movies

Announcing a new video project. Unrelated to our games, but should still be entertaining for all. We hope you have as much fun watching as we had fun making it.

blythe is also pretty cool (tried a new brush lol, didn't feel like rendering but I feel like it's decent enough :D) character once again belongs to

If there's anything that will force me out of a hiatus, I guess that will do it.

Apparently we received an unusually high number of notifications because of a crypto gambling website using the name "GoldbarGames_" with an underscore. Do not confuse us with them! We make real games!

FORGET THE GOLDEN WITCH An Umineko fangame set in a very different version of Rokkenjima. Yet, different as the setup might be, the tragedy persists: a family is slowly killed off in seemingly impossible ways. Can you find the truth?

Tonight we implemented spell equipping. You can press any of the three "spell buttons" to equip them from the menu. Then when you press each button in-game, it casts the corresponding spell! #gamedev #indiegame

Just realized it's still Friday here, but whatever! Got too excited.

And the goal is to essentially replicate the 2D photo filters from the first game, but with the flexibility of creating our own geometry and imagery.

The secret is that both backgrounds are actually the same 3D scene, just with the camera rendering from two different angles (and using two different shaders) to get that "Umineko map" effect... with a seamless transition!

Getting the next #DetectiveButler game up and running in our new game engine. Testing out transitions between (placeholder) backgrounds to see how it would look. They're rendered real-time in 3D and filtered via shader. #gamedev #screenshotsaturday #visualnovel #vndev
