Haven't had a chance to take advantage of the addition of videos yet so now's the time! Did a little turn-around composition of my Zelda models. #zelda #fanart #3d #model #gameart

Still chipping away at this. I'm contemplating whether I want the panel on the sleeve or not. I've seen both interpretations. #3D #Miku #zbrush

I've been chipping away on this game with some friends for a good while now. It'd be awesome if you could try out our playtest and give us some feedback!

bit.lyRobo Dome - Updated Playtest Now Live! - Blog Post #1 - Steam NewsWe've made some sizeable updates to the feel and features of Robo Dome! As we push forward in the addition of new content we'd like to announce an update to our latest playtest.

Palia is releasing a new adventure zone today! With it comes a new NPC, Eshelon. Here is the model I made for the game. #palia #gameart #character

Still pretty scuffed but I'm having fun haha. It's been a while since I've modeled something not associated to some large project.

We're adding a new shop (and new characters to run it)! Now you'll be able to get drinks at the cafรฉ to give you an edge on future runs. #screenshotsaturday #robodome #bullethell #indiegame

We asked for chip suggestions on our discord. One of the suggestions was a gif of Chip from Chip and Dale. Maybe we should have clarified that chips are our in-run upgrades but we obliged anyway. ๐Ÿ˜‰ #RoboDome #indiegame #roguelike

This nomination is wild. Thank you!

Just a small update today! We added some info text to rooms. Would you prefer something like this to be always on or have a setting to turn it off after learning the symbols? #indiegame #roguelike #robodome

The launch of Overseer was definitely a rocky start with a couple pretty hefty bugs. I very much appreciate the patience everyone gave me while patching the game over the first few days. I'm especially grateful that you all consider it a positive experience despite that!

A problem we're hoping to avoid is a feeling of monotony. This flying saucer forces you to move to a higher floor in order to damage it. #indiegame #roguelike #twinstickshooter

Have you been participating in our playtest on Steam? Are matches giving you a hard time? Then go say hi to Gadget and try out some upgrades for your next run! #robodome #indiegame #roguelike #wishlistwednesday

Hey there Robo Battlers! What are some of the coolest upgrades you've seen in roguelikes or any other game? We're constantly looking at ways to make the experience of our game more enticing with new cool abilities you can find in a run! #gamedev #indiegame #roguelike #robodome

We recently encountered an issue. Some guns, like our smart pistol, require a target to fire. We recently made a target dummy drop when opening a chest so you can test your new weapon! ๐Ÿ˜‰ #indiegame #roguelike #robodome #gameplay

We have a gun that shoots swords. You can shoot them and recall them for a good old sneak attack. What are your favorite weapons from top down games you've played? #indiegame #roguelike #bullethell #robodome

Thanks everyone in the playdate community who felt my game was worth voting for! It means a lot that people enjoyed the game.

Robo Dome has variable dodge lengths. It takes time for people to pick up but we like the flexibility it gives to movement and evasion. What do you think of it? #indiegame #roguelike #bullethell #robodome

Stoff reposted

Effects make a big difference for game feel! We're adding trail and elemental effects to all our guns including this sawblade launcher. ๐Ÿ˜ #indiedev #roguelike #robodome

Do YOU like high octane running, gunning and explosions? Good! That's the experience we want to give you with Robo Dome! #ScreenshotSaturday #indiegame #roguelike

It's a lot of fun to dig in and try to polish something. There's still a long way to go but I've been learning a lot when it comes to tying in more elements. It's easy to tunnel vision on one aspect and ignore the big picture #indiedev #gameart #gamedev #3d #anime

I'm continuing to chip away at this experimental project. The animations are a bit stiff still but it's fun to practice that area along with learning cell shading, vfx and some UI/UX. #indiedev #gameart #gamedev #3d #anime

This isn't quite what I wanted but I think this is as close as I'm going to get. I was trying to make the eyebrows and eyes show through the hair but getting the eyes to show through and be masked by the eyelids was a bit overly complicated.

Here's a WIP on an attack chain animation. It's just key poses that are blending into each other for now. I decided not to do stepped this time since I find it hard to judge the timing.
