Space nerd making StellarDrive: a game about building starships to explore the cosmos. You can play an early alpha for free on itch: http://curious-owl-dev.itch.io/stellardrive
I've been working with an awesome composer lately to create ambiance for my game. Here's a sample of what you'll hear as you dive into planetary rings for the first time. Sound: ON 🎵

Added this gyroscope part to my spaceship-building game. You can plug it into a pilot's seat for greater control, or you can set up wiring to automatically align your ship.

Made this self-stabilizing platform in my indie space game. It's using new parts such as a velocity sensor, along with math nodes to calculate the proper thrust to keep the ship perfectly still.

More progress on the player character. His suit has little thrusters for space navigation. This keeps it compact while also freeing the player's hands.

I've been working on this player model for my space game. Here he is testing the mining laser.

This week I tweaked the forest generation further to produce these small clearings with resources to be found 👀

Did some work on the forests this week: there are now more tree varieties and the forests are now visible from space (though the transitions are still pretty harsh). Here's what it looks like :)

Made this little guy a while ago just for fun. He's looking a little sus for some reason.

Playing around with the atmosphere shader again. I love the light shaft caused by the planet's shadow.

Recently added a new lever model to my starship-building game. I also made it so you can mount it on walls and ceilings for cool cockpit designs.

Just some highly elliptical spacecraft trajectories for #screenshotsaturday. As always, if you like the idea of learning about orbital mechanics in a fun puzzle setting, wishlist Orbital Mechanic: store.steampowered.com/app/3395150/... #indiedev #indiegamedev
