Hi hi! I’m Robin, I love anything game, art or nature related, I will probably be be reposting a lot of random stuff with my own projects or posts sprinkled in :P

I use #godot for #gamedev and #aseprite for art, I’ve been loving the process of learning them both!

Hope you are all doing good <3

I’m alive! Took a small break from social media over the holidays but I’m back now. I’ll be trying to do more art and small game projects this year.

Hope everyone has a good 2026 <3

Luma!

I am beyond upset, YouTube has age restricted my video tonight for thinking it depicts real actual gambling. The video is on CloeverPit and contains no real gambling, but does contain a massive charity push for The Trevor Project. Last time this happened I almost quit YouTube

How did we design an art style for a sequel game set in the same universe as The Pale Beyond, but that has a totally different setting and tone?

hard to maintain friendships with game developers because all these motherfuckers have ADHD and forget you exist when you're out of sight (it's me i'm these guys)

Starting up my next proper project soon: Sunbreak!

It’ll be part of my uni work but I plan on expanding it into a longer more detailed game.

I’m absolutely in love with the world I’ve made for this project and can’t wait to make it playable :D

Wish there was a way to become a game designer without the ritual combat but with the state of the industry it is what it is 😔

Had an amazing time meeting everyone and chatting about random stuff :D

Very awesome event, loved winning stuff at the raffle and I don’t think I’ll ever run out of sweets now lmao

Thanks so much!!
Thank you to everyone who braved the stormy weather to attend our Halloween social on Thursday!

There were lots of wonderful costumes on display and plenty of goolish fun to be had.

We raised money for a good cause while looking absolutely fabulous 💅

Hope to see you again next time 🎃 👻 ❤

My week 4 project!! Mainly focused on learning how splines and arrays work in unreal blueprints, some quite weird stuff with getting references to objects while iterating through arrays while adding object pooling but it’s fineeee.

:D

It’s not Halloween anymore but the goblins and demons keep speaking to me 😭

I will endure and actually finish all the projects I set out to before starting new ones, yep, 100%, definitely.

It’s such a fun idea though and I can’t wait to see what it’ll be like in engine :)

2 weeks into my first year studying game design at uni and I’m loving it.
We have to use Unreal so it’s been a hell of a learning curve switching over but exploring some of the tools it has to offer has been very fun.
Lecturers are amazing and I could listen to them talk for days.

Went to London with a friend to see Hades Town last week and ABSOLUTELY LOVED IT! Incredibly dynamic with so many interesting set pieces and Hermes was amazing, the first photo isn’t mine but shows the same cast as the show I saw, drinks were also great! 12/10 would definitely recommend seeing it :D
