WHEW I DID IT! I launched Borrowed Light for the #jernjam this year! 🎉 The last 4 days turned into a huge crunch time for me. Come check it out and let me know what you think! theaveragegoob.itch.io/borrowed-light #gamedev #indiegamedev #indiegame #godot

I haven't been able to work too much over the week, but I'm making HUGE progress this weekend and wanted to share a little snippet of what I've been putting together for Borrowed Light. Working on UI and level design. Hopefully I'll have something to submit! #jernjam #indiegamedev #gamejam

I've been working on some of the art for Borrowed Light! The hardest part for me is environment art, so I'm going to try to template it as much as I can so I can swap tree styles easily for the infinite scrolling. #jernjam #gameart

Day 3 and already feeling like a game! The core game loop is coming together! I'm moving much faster than I thought I would. I feel like progress so far is pretty good. Borrowed Light is taking shape. averagegamestudio.com/day-3-gettin... #gamedev #jernjam #devlog #indiegame

Day 2 of #JernJam involved a bit of project management and getting into mockup/prototyping territory. I started a vision board for what I want, setup kanban for tasks, and got my project created in Godot. This weekend, I'm going for playable. averagegamestudio.com/day-2-protot... #gamedev #devlog

I'm getting started on my game for the #JernJam this year! I'm making a game about moths and fireflies. What is everyone else making? Can't wait to see what everyone comes up with for "Unlikely Hero". averagegamestudio.com/jernjam-2026... #gamedev #devlog #gamejam

It's that time of year! I'm thinking about joining up for the #JernJam itch.io/jam/jern-jam... this year again. I had a great time doing this last year. Maybe I come back and stream my development and hang out :) If you're a #gamedev make sure to check out this jam!

Any time someone thinks your game is terrible, they immediately call it AI slop. If it's really good, AI slop. It's rough being an indie dev right now. This is why it's important to stream your work, share dev logs, show progress, and be open about development these days.

Somewhat of a game is starting to come to life. I've had fun getting back into Godot, regardless of progress. Faceroll Odyssey is taking shape! #gamedev #godot #gamejam

Got a late start on Faceroll Odyssey art tonight, but I wanted to share my progress on the player's avatar. The idea is that you play an end-game-geared, overpowered warrior. #art #gamedev #gamejam #gameart

For anyone that was watching me struggle on adding dodge to my character....the movement was being overridden by the keyboard movement move_and_slide function. I had to add a boolean for when they player is dodging. I shoulda known.

Wow, it feels like it's been forever. Come check out what I'm working on today! www.twitch.tv/theaveragegoob #godot #streaming #gamedev

While I'm gearing up for my next couple of game releases and return to streaming, would you mind playing Vibe Clicker and letting me know what you think? store.steampowered.com/app/3813330/... #vibeclicker #godot #gamedev

Checking in so everyone knows I'm alive. Been working on art for You Had Mead at Hello so we can get a demo out Q1. Admittedly, I haven't been streaming because I've been sucked into Classic WoW with the BC launch coming. Never got to experience it as a kid, so I get to now. Streams coming soon! 🤓

Come stop by and watch me learn how to make 3D games using Godot. It's been about 6, 7 years since I worked with 3D! www.twitch.tv/theaveragegoob
