super quick look at my content pipeline for #aurumvitea
30 minutes of work condensed into 20 seconds #indiedev

improving the UI of my game Aurum Vitae

scrolling text on the detailspanel, cool background effect, little ease in animation, using UI placeholders when the 3D based cards are behind the UI...

Phew! What a week

#AurumVitae #Godot #IndieDev

Improved my alchemical circle animation.

Next up! Making a whole bunch of starter content and move from there.

#AurumVitae #IndieGame #GodotEngine #gamedev

In Aurum Vitae, the alchemical circle is formed of 8 elements.
North embodies the human, West the natural, East the elemental, and South the otherworldly.

Only when all are placed T̷Ω̶g̸e̴ṯ̵h̶e̷r̴ does the circle become complete.

If I can give one piece of advice to fellow #indiedevs: build debug tools for yourself. They’ll save you hours (and frustration).

for my game Aurum Vitae I just added a debug panel that lets me instantly spawn one of the win conditions, and wow, it makes testing so much easier

#gamedev #AurumVitae

Added some visual elements to the cards disintegrating upon use and popping into existence. Looking into card fusion next

#Indiedev #MadeWithGodot

Working on a card game where you click and drag cards around to study magic spells. Have a good feeling about this one. The godot resource system made this relatively straightforward to implement and I'm starting to see the appeal of the engine. #Godot #IndieGame

Not only did I make bootleg vampire survivors, I've also made bootleg minecraft! I don't know if I'll ever finish a game, but maybe I'll just go for "most unfinished games"

#unfinishedProjects #indiedev #unity #gamedev #indiedevlife

Another game I never finished, Beyond Pulp, a game where I put entirely too many enemies onto the screen and rewrote most of the Unity components to do so (it's running at 60 FPS but you can't tell in the gif).

Yes, it's bootleg Vampire Survivors

Second game I've made but didn't finish.

A game where the hero barges into your house and steals stuff and you have to plant things to keep him away. The twist being that the hero will get new items over time

#indiedev #towerdefence #unity #gamedev #lowpoly

Making a video of all the game prototypes I've made over the years but didn't finish (due to work, being a parent, etc). Some cool things in here...

#indiedev #gamedev #godot

I made an idle game in monogame/C#... using pure vibe coding. I'm somehow both impressed and unimpressed at the same time.
