Mario voice: Its a Bee
I painted the token drone from our upcomming game Bee Space. It's for a giveaway for episode 300 of local gaming podcast, Tölvuleikjaspjallið. I hope the winner treats my boy right. Cudos to our char modeler Willem for the upscaled 3d print❤️ #3dprint #indiegame #handpainted

For USA's election day we're asking all developers to provide a political essay and voting disclosure with their pages
Replying to @Filmbot
Age ratings tell parents what’s in a game so they can make informed decisions for their kids. These AI statements are just as partisan as mandatory political essays or forcing developers to list their voting history to drive cancel campaigns and public struggle sessions.

"Politely" 🤣
Terraform the island. Or trash it. 😈 100+ cards, 30+ charms, 18 bosses. New build every run. Yes the bee is cute. No, that doesn't make it easy. Wishlist on Steam (link in bio) Played the demo? Drop your build below 👇 #BeeSpace #Deckbuilder #RoguelikeDeckbuilder #IndieGame

I improved water shading in my phsyics engine. It's a simple 2d water without much structure. But I turned velocity and pressure fields into a normal map. Old water is in the comments, to compare.

It came out so nice!
Willem our 3D magician, prepared our Drone character for 3D printing! 🐝 The male drones have larger eyes than the female workers and they are also mostly useless within the hive. But the workers still like to care for them. ❤️ #3dprinting #resinprinting #beespace #indiegame

We have been working a lot on usability for Bee Space and one of the things we did was add tooltips for all icons. We even put tooltips in our tooltips. Dawg.

Hrafnar is leaving us tomorrow 💔 We will share more of his modelling and rigging in the near future 🐝
We have had the good fortune of having an intern helping us out this summer. Check out this amazing octopus Hrafnar modeled and rigged based on a delightfully derpy design. Makes you wonder what it will actually do in game? 🤔🐙 #gamedev #indiegames #octupus #blender

100K fake particles. Why fake? Because they are actually 3 dof bodies computed with AVBD method. So fast, that it competes with actual particles. Thoguh, I need particles to stick together, form ropes and jelly bodies. So, will use my old method with few improvements.
