Had fun adding a portal to other levels. Next up: Populate the level with a lot more content and interesting enemies. Always challenging when the dungeons are procedurally generated. #indiedev #gamedev #procgen #solodev #alien

When your imprisonment is old and rusty, all it takes is a few bumps to break loose! This is the first glimpse at a new project, I'm prototyping on. #indiedev #solodev #gamedev #pixelart

First bug has been discovered AND fixed. A new version 1.0.6 has been uploaded to Steam. Please give it a spin and let me know what you think. 💫 It means a lot to me, to get feedback, good and bad! 💫 #gamedev #indiedev #Steam #indiegame #solodev

💫 MISSION FAILED (but fashionably) 💫 Just finished the mission debriefing screen! After each run, a station manager delivers a randomized (and often sarcastic) one-liner. Even if you explode in 16 seconds like me 😅 As Dr. Cortex says: “Scientifically speaking…yikes.” #indiedev #gamedev #solodev

I've been fiddling with this neon-soaked, Family Jetson-flavored space game where you have to survive 15 minutes of geometric chaos, haunting and exploding enemies, and expired burgers. The fuel and health gauge judges you 🤠 #screenshotsaturday #gamedev #indiegame

The Steam Demo version of Thrustme Too has just been released! Go and get it! 😀And please wishlist the game, while you're there 😉 #Steam #solodev #indiedev #indiegame #procgen store.steampowered.com/app/3351860/...

Fiddling around with arming my guards. Some trigger happy dudes, I tell ya'! 🤠 Next up is equipping them with different types of weapon 😈 #solodev #indiedev #gamedev #Indiegamedev #procgen

When you gotta go, you gotta! Even NPC's have basic needs 🙂 So far this need, together with hunger will have higher priority than just basic guard duty. #solodev #indiedev #gamedev #procgen #indiegamedev

I'm impressed. Even after 2 years, only 2 people have managed to complete all 40 levels in my game 'Ladder Larry'! 😄 And the fastest time was 44 minutes. #solodev #indiedev #Steam #gamedev

Fixing bugs in a procedurally generated environment with NPC's doing their own random things, can be so tedious! They never seem to do the same stupid thing twice in a row 😖 #solodev #indiedev #gamedev #indiegamedev #procgen

Such a milestone!! 😊 1.400 followers? You are so great! Thank you!! On a side note, I'm working on the guard schedules and all 41 guards in this level are behaving as they should... So far! 😆 #solodev #indiedev #gamedev #indiegamedev #procgen

Working on implementing guards that patrols the entire complex. Visibility indicators will show the player what the guard can see. Still a long way before it can be called a game, but there's progress! 🤠 #solodev #indiedev #gamedev #procgen #pixelart #2d

Could this look like an interesting map to walk through? Your primary mission would be to assassinate a person in the orange room, without being seen by the guards (dots in RED). You would exfiltrate from the cyan room. #procgen #solodev #indiedev #gamedev #indiegamedev

Came a little further with my experiment. Have added a simple NPC that just wanders the halls. I also got around to implementing a simple minimap that shows where you've been. This might turn into a proper #roguelike 😳 #indiedev #solodev #gamedev #2d #procgen #pixelart
