After 66 hours grinding like the n00b I am.

I finally hit lvl80 in WOW.

This game is incredible.

Any other fellow elder Emo kids playing?

Let’s adventure.

Spent the last 3 days design low poly dungeons but none felt good yet, im getting closer but I refuse to settle.

I have a vision, it’ll click one day.

How do y’all break through the doubt?

Some new stills as I work on lighting and scene design in my first dungeon. Light and sound will play a huge factor in my game.

It’s my favorite aspect of design.

It’s kind of nuts in actually doing things. Imposter syndrome can’t fuck off.

I swear I’m not making a horror game lol

But LatchK3y will feature “dungeons” but I cant explain how they fit right now but I promise it’ll make sense.

Here is a little flashlight / dungeon design prototype.

Here’s a little preview of the Adelaide district.

I rebuilt the lighting and still have so much more to design but the ideas are flowing.

I’m so excited for this project.

Day / Night Cycle is sort of working. This took me way too long to do but I’m glad I now have a building block to tweak as I go.

This is the song that has inspired me to start developing my passion project.

I’m gonna do what it takes to license this track. When I think of “game funding”. I’m thinking about the soundtrack.

The ideas I have are so ambitious whoops.

🎶 Omg I’m back again. 🎶

Today I spent way too much time failing at getting a lighting pipeline to work. I’ll pick it back up tomorrow.

Launching a devblog / website soon.

Here are some new environmental stills, I can’t wait to build more!

Sup party people. Here is some more screens of Project Latchkey in the works.

It’s very relaxing building a city then to be able to wander around.

Gonna get a few more roads and streets down before I switch focus to the player abilities.

Enjoy.

Finally decided to start making game I’ve always wanted to.

It’s a first person exploration adventure. Based off my life a latchkey kid in the early 90s.

I’ve been building my childhood neighborhood over the last few days. It’s been weird.

last photo is the inspo.

Man… as a millennial.

It’s wild to think there a chance I’m going to have lived in a pre-cellphone / post Statue of Liberty USA world before 40.

My silly game jam submission is live.

It’s okay, I learned a lot and hope to carry that learning into something a bit bigger.

Might as well keep the creative train rolling. I’ll be releasing all my music for the games I make or anything orginal over @ bandcamp

Uploaded my first song in over 15 years.

Hello! working on 5 day game jam. He’s a little clip of what I managed since Sunday. I doubt I’ll find the time to finish the other part of the level cause I scoped to big. All music, art, animation, sfx done by me.

Scores for my first ever game jam submission. While I really didn’t know what to expect… Out of 2200 submissions, I guess I did okay? Lol

I’ll take that enjoyment score and see if can’t improve on it.

But for 6 days, I had fun and learned a lot.

On to the next.

Found an old time lapse of a UI concept for a game I wanted to make but never did.
