Plans

Progress! Things are starting to pick up. Maybe it’s real, maybe it’s in my head, either way I find it motivating. My game has almost a full structure, my dot com is busy finding its feet, I’ve found some great fonts to use for both the game and the website, and I’ve written a scriptContinue reading “Plans”

New Year!

I’m wasting my time! I’m faffing! I need to stop using double spaces after a sentence. Over the holidays I got a bit more work done on my game. More than I have in the past few months! Things are getting more serious now. I’ve gone through a LONG prototyping phase since I don’t actuallyContinue reading “New Year!”

Change of pace

I’ve been procrastinating, but not in the way you think. I’ve been spending time creating game assets when I haven’t even prototyped this thing at all. I’ve got no idea if my little idea is even going to be fun! I recently watched Indie Game and I’ve also been watching a lot of GDC talksContinue reading “Change of pace”

I had said in a previous post that his feet are about a frame off. If you watch carefully you’ll see that his heels connect at the turning point ofContinue reading “Form and function”

It’s ALIVE!

I spent a lot of time making this little teddy of mine move. And I’ve also been going back and forth on names for the game. I had an initial idea of “My Hero Teddy” but that felt too wordy. I had settled on “Teddy Knights” for a few days until I remembered Shovel KnightContinue reading “It’s ALIVE!”

And then there were polygons

I’ve started making a game a little while back. It’s been slow going because I only work on it a few evenings a week. I have no idea what I’m doing but I am making steady progress. For now I’m working to my strengths which is 3D and VFX. So as you can see below,Continue reading “And then there were polygons”
