Well, it has been a while. The reason for that is that I’ve enlisted in the Armed Forces and was at basic training. Now I occasionally have some (not much, really) time. I’ve updated screenshots on Tailgate’s @steampowered.com page and would like you to check them out! 👇❤️🐕🎾

It’s #screenshotsaturday so it’s time to show some fresh stuff! I’m almost done with all major assets for this chapter (and a lot of them would be used in other chapters). So I’m taking my time working on small stuff!

I’m half through the modelling phase (need to make it redo a lot of assets). I’m trying very hard to keep modelling and decorating the level with each new prop I make🤣 but this time will come soon! #indiegames #adventuregames #Tailgate #dogs

I’ve wrapped the work on major game systems for now, and moved on to the visuals for the upcoming #Tailgate demo. There have been a lot of placeholder assets (like those flat and ugly bricks in the first pic) in alpha, now it’s time to model and texture some stuff!

In January I invited @vladbat00.bsky.social to take part in @globalgamejam.bsky.social together. We enrolled to the Ctrl+Alt+Disinfo category and worked on a deck builder set in a not-so-distant dystopian future, were propaganda and conspiracies won. 👇

I’m at 25% on public demo backlog and feel really good about all the additions and changes in #Tailgate. Today I’ve added a bit more to the SaveSystem. I’m not done with collecting, storing and applying all the data yet, but still got some good results today! Checkpoint reached!

Started working on the save system for my #indiegame Tailgate. Basic logic is now up and running, a lot more work needs to be done for it to work properly. Funny that I had to (and will too) work on paper/table than in blueprints. #gamedev #unrealengine

#ShowMeSunday I’m doing another dev crunch and it’s already day 9/100. A lot of updates since the start, camera movement and most notably new stamina system. I’ll share more detes in the upcoming devlog issue, but for now I’d just say that yes, you can drink from the toilet in Tailgate🎮🤣 #indiegames

Fresh concept art for Tailgate🎮. This one is for the Refuge location. Refuge is a place where stray dogs and other animals live. Older strays know a lot about the ancient canine prophecy, but they aren’t going to share the knowledge with anyone.

Not exactly a #screenshotsaturday thing, but still. Working on a new chapter/level concept art for Tailgate🐕🎮. I’m not particularly good in 2d so it takes a lot of time. Can’t wait to finish this artwork though!

#throwbackthursday A year ago I’ve made these drawings to, well I just have. I’m not a very good artist, so it took a while. But it helped me a lot to get the vibe of the game I wanted to make. I plan to spend some time drawing more concepts to keep that feeling in the game.
