Me and my wife have started to work on a game together!
The two gifs above are concept art for the game. The game is wip; workshopping ideas, names.
You play as a cute robot.
The main game loop goes from gardening for useful plants up above and base building to traveling under and into the tunnels with the elevator, gathering gardening supplies and other items and using the plants you grew to fend off other creatures. The plants you grow up above will have a corresponding creature they fend off.
I like the idea that you don't hurt them, just avoiding them :). The game has a creepy comfy liminal vibe.

I have been updating my website and working on a new game! and just... trying to stay sane through all of the seemingly never-ending barrage of bad news.
It's been a long time since I started learning and trying to game develop. I have been having a lot of fun lately with unreal engine; I'm making a digital exhibition for my first game in unreal. It's going to be a quite liminal game, will have simple mechanics and a haunting yet beautiful atmosphere.
Making a workflow from blender to unreal has been fun; unreal uses a different kind of material system than blender uses so I've been learning how to re-create my materials in unreal. Learning unreals blueprint system for coding has been hard but very rewarding as basic things are coming naturally. And i ain't using a lick of ai so suck my big toe ai-bros.

Edit @9:30

Also in love with making looping gifs lately:)
