• Mini Dungeon Ludum Dare 29

    Mini Dungeon Ludum Dare 29

    So me and Yuuki didn’t really want to kill our momentum, but I also thought it would be fun to give ourselves a little challenge. Ludum Dare is a game competition / jam where developers spent 48 hours making a game. It’s obviously a bit short for anything polished, so…

  • Blocky Dungeon Game Update

    Blocky Dungeon Game Update

    Blocky Dungeon seems like a name that would have been taken by now, but it looks like my prototype post is getting enough SEO to be a top result for the name. Google chose my game name for me! I’ll be adding this to the projects page soon, as I…

  • Pathfinding and a Shiny Key

    Pathfinding and a Shiny Key

    I’m still alive. Here’s some preview voxels from Qubicle- and a 3d model from YuukiRus who’s learning proper 3d modeling. We’re hoping to mix low poly and voxel meshes together. It’s pretty sweet. Okay, that’s recess. Uh, be cool out there. Don’t Bogart the snacks. And if the po-po rolls…

  • Unity PlayMaker TwinStick Controls Demo

    Unity PlayMaker TwinStick Controls Demo

    This is a simple twin stick shooter setup for PlayMaker. I’m hoping to get a bunch of these prototype game mechanics into a set of tutorials. I’m still working on the style of my channel, and it’s taking me a while to get things feeling ‘right’. I also have a…

  • Fez meets Minecraft?

    Fez meets Minecraft?

    Spent a couple of hours messing around with voxel models and Playmaker, to set up a level editor similar to Fez.  Somehow it turned into a Minecraft ripoff.  :-\ Anyway, the editor is actually pretty nice for a days work. I’ve been doing ingame level editors for what seems like…

  • Unity, Voxels, PlayMaker and Rotorz

    Unity, Voxels, PlayMaker and Rotorz

    Unity, Voxels, PlayMaker and Rotorz, Oh my! I’m currently adding PlayMaker powered speech bubbles to my New Years Jam game.

  • Asset Review: Rotorz Tile System

    Asset Review: Rotorz Tile System

    I’m doing a short bit of writing about the assets I’ve purchased in the Unity Asset Store. Today we’re comparing tilemappers. I’ve only had youtube videos and other reviews to go with, so I waited a while before finally purchasing…

  • A New Year – 2014

    A New Year – 2014

    Oh how time flies. A lot has happened in 2013. I got lost in Minecraft for 6 months, made a bunch of friends there, and mostly abandoned them when I decided to move back into game development mode. Life eh?

  • New Years Game Jam Challenge

    New Years Game Jam Challenge

    +Andrew Sandifer challenged me and +Yuuki Rus to a Christmas Game Jam, which kinda turned into a New Years Game Jam, because that’s how stuff works. The idea was that we’d have 1 day to complete game 1. 2 days to complete game 2, and so on until New Years.

  • Voxel Project Updates

    Voxel Project Updates

    I’ve been posting to G+, Facebook, and Twitter with some short snippets and screenshots. It’s probably good to mirror that content here, even if it’s not a ‘legit’ post.

  • Voxel RPG Art

    Voxel RPG Art

    Me and my artist Yuuki (http://yuukirusdemon.deviantart.com/gallery/) have been hitting the artwork hard, trying to determine whether or not we want cartoony voxels, or a more realistic/detailed look.

  • SketchFab Test

    SketchFab Test

    Just posting a test of this fancy SketchFab model viewer. I’ve seen it become popular all over the web – and seeing as there’s been a big focus on getting artwork ready for this RPG, I figured it was a good idea to test drive it myself. Looks pretty good!
