Crikey. Was creeping through old work directories looking for Daikatana stuff, and found what _I think_ is the massout for the Doom3 Doomguy helmet. Hidden lightwave layer. I'm guessing I abandoned it for time (muh brain is old yo). #gamedev #doom3 #fps #idsoftware #characterart #boomershooter

"Steam players are hoarders"

Stats show the median Steam user has never played 51% of the games they buy. If the average gamer was a fully rational consumer who only bought what they consumed and nothing more, then half of Steam's purchases would be gone.

www.pcgamer.com/gaming-indus...
'Knowing Steam players are hoarders explains why you give Valve that 30%,' analyst tells devs: 'You get access to a bunch of drunken sailors who spend money irresponsibly'
"More than likely the person buying your game is not going to play it."

To finish my story (so far): While I secured funding to finish development, I am currently self-publishing #DERELIKT.

That means I can freely show you the dev process!🔍
But it also means we currently have no Publisher assisting with marketing or ports.🥲

For a few people following this 8 bit computer thingy, here it is :D

I no longer need to worry about this 8 bit hardware for some time in the future. Everything tested to be working properly, including all the PCBs and stuff.

I have a question for any Level Designers out there. The question is open to anyone of course, but I'd love to hear from "pro's":

Do you see value in designing map layouts in 2D top down views, if the game is 3D. Paper sketches, doodles etc.
or do you think you should ONLY "sketch" in 3D?

Since I have no job in animation since June 2024, I'm training in 3D mech modeling to learn the basics & maybe be able to do my own.
And that's thanks to @blendersecrets.bsky.social & @chromamoma.bsky.social
I have rarely experienced a tutorial in such a serene way!
#Blender is definitely a banger🔥

Did all this without following any tutorials, it wasn't easy lol, but it works great and isn't super complex.
