I grew up with 3D platformers like Banjo-Kazooie, and I want to bring those retro vibes into Shallow Pond; so people who grew up with games like these and a new generation can enjoy them alike. What do you remember most about that era? #retrogames #steamdeck #3dplatformer

Nothing of this would exist if I hadn't started 3 years ago. What are you waiting for? Just start. I failed often along the way and in the years before but I won't stop until I'm done. Be brave and don't overthink it forever. Trust me. #gamedev #3dplatformer #steamdeck #cute

Can't get enough of this, now that Ripples shines through foliage. Lots of other additions to the demo as well, check it out! #gamedev #solodev #cozygame #3dplatformer #cute

Ripples needs the energy from those cute Water Spirits to finish the levels. Now, they gift him energy for being released them and then vanish back into their realm. A little kiss? 😘 #gamedev #solodev #cozygame #cute #gamedesign

Game development is a wild ride - some days everything clicks, and other days it crawls at a snail’s pace. But that’s just how it goes, right? Keep pushing forward! 🙃💪🤞 #gamedev #indiegame #indiedev #cozy #wishlistwednesday #underwater

Working on the underwater movement and interaction system 💦🤿 What would you do down there? I'm thinking of bigger underwater areas, now that he can swim like a penguin! 🐧🙂 #indiedev #gamedev #unrealengine #indiegame #thursdayvibes #gamedevlife #gamedesign

I often hear that people like my positive attitude. I'm not faking it - I really do try to stay positive, even when it's tough. I believe it would be even harder without that mindset. How do you manage to stay positive? 🌞 #gamedev #indiedev #cozygame #wishlistwednesday #cozy

The game has become a bit faster-paced, but you can control the pace through your playstyle. I also had my first speedrunner test it, which was a lot of fun to watch. #gamedev #indiegame #indiedev #trailertuesday #cozy

The new BouncePad has more juice and purpose. Ripples can perform a basic jump off it, but when you Stomp - that’s when the real push happens. Honor today’s #wishlistwednesday and help a #solodev out with some kindness - wishlist the game 😉. #gamedev #cozy #indiegame

Do you get help from others, even if you're solo? I've come to really value the input from my gamedev friends - it makes a huge difference every day. My game wouldn't be anywhere near where it is now without their help ❤️. #indiedev #gamedev #indiegame #ue5 #gamedesign #cozy

The sinking platforms in the Demo of Shallow Pond were a challenge for one of my best testers (my daughter, 7 l). so I built two Checkpoint platforms for her. #gamedev #indiegame #platformer #sundayvibes

Don't underestimate what you can achieve on your own. It's more than you think if you give yourself that chance and stick to it. Trust me 🎮 #gamedev #cozygame #cute #3dplatformer

How it started ➡️ how it went ➡️ how it's going. Working solo, part-time, trying to succeed in the end. A long road, but I can feel where the destination is. How do you manage to stay sane over a long period of time on a project? 💫🙃 #gamedev #cozygame #3dplatformer #cute

End of December I had a very nice playthrough of the Demo and interview by Pirate Software . Later this part was put online as a separate video, highly appreciated. Thanks, Thor! Here's a snippet, the link to the video is in the comments. #solodev #cozygame #indiegame #cute

Those cute monsters become plants when you water their seedling after defeating them. Earn additional shells randomly by growing them in the free 'Shallow Pond' demo on Steam. My first game as a solo dev after 20 years in games and it works nicely on #steamdeck 🎮❤️ #cozygame

I've got a question for you fellow gamedevs: How do you plan your levels? Paper, clay, lego, in engine/3d, greyboxing, etc.? I'd love to know. Ripples says hi, btw! 😁 #gamedev #leveldesign #cute #cozy #indiedev #gamedesign #solodev #wishlistwednesday

I'm naive to think that a single person can create a game on their own. But honestly, I don't care. Life is complicated, and becoming good at anything is no different. How do you cope with the constant feeling that disaster is always lurking? 🔥🙃 #gamedev #indiedev #indiegame

How do you manage online distractions and reduce smartphone usage? I've started using apps to limit access to distracting apps, and it's been a big help. Would love to hear how you cope with it! #gamedev #indiedev #indiegame #cozy #distractions

Ideas are worthless on their own 💡. They may seem bright and exciting at first, but they change as you work on them, evolving into something real. Turning an idea into a finished product takes time - lots of it. Wishlist? 🙃 #indiedev #gamedev #indiegame #wishlistwednesday

I let the diver jump and swim some more to try another audio track. The more audio styles I explore, the more I realize how many options there are for different scenarios. How do you test audio in your game? #indiedev #devlog #wednesdayfeelings #UnrealEngine #gaming #gamedev

Platforms stuck in midair felt out of place in my game. Now, they can float and move in different directions, and the character can grab them and float along. What do you think? Any thoughts on this topic or Pizza? 🍕 #indiedev #gamedev #indiegame #WednesdayMotivation
