Assets, and more assets! Think I’m getting somewhere and I add another bunch to my list. Will have to think about a working with an artist soon, so I can concentrate on the coding, being jack of all trades is slowing me down #indiedev #indiegame #gamedev #maya #unrealengine #UE4

What did the right eye say to the left eye?

Been a couple of weeks since a post, apologies it’s just been full on with fixing some bugs (no idea how they got there 👀 😂). And designing more in game environments. #indiedev #indiegame #gamedev #unrealengine #ue4

When you return to work after a few days off and nothing’s working as you thought you’d left it 😂 #indiedev #gamedev #indiegame #unrealengine #ue4

Getting there, basic interaction running, didn’t quite get a level video done, maybe next week. Last work on this now for a few days as I take a few days off. Hope the Easter bunny visits you all 🐰 🐣 #indiedev #indiegame #gamedev #unrealengine #ue4

[Craig Woodward @bronzedev]

Less making games today more playing them (well the kids are) while I drink coffee, think the screens big enough 🙄 #indiedev #gamedev #Fortnite #CoffeeAddict

[Craig Woodward @bronzedev]

Kids are on Easter Holiday break so progress will be slow next few weeks, but I did finish the basic player and camera movement blueprints for a level, so still hope to get an actual level demo out this week #indiedev #gamedev #indiegame #unrealengine #ue4

Early morning game development while watching F1, heaven 😁. I’ve been finishing off level interaction code, so should be in a position to show video of a full working level next week 😎 (inevitable bugs depending) #indiedev #indiegame #gamedev #unrealengine #ue4 #f1

[Craig Woodward @bronzedev]

Not posted for a couple of days but not much to show, mainly coding and extending my classes to Blueprints, but I am still here. Grumpy mugs out again, but actually I’m in a great mood, that’ll change when debugging comes 😂 #indiedev #indiegame #gamedev #unrealengine #ue4

[Craig Woodward @bronzedev]

Bit of down time, and sort of a bit of research, watching Kingdom, the Korean zombie plague series. Sort of parallels nicely with my Black Death game #indiedev #gamedev #kingdom #research

[Craig Woodward @bronzedev]

Fire particle sorted, so here’s a little work in progress video, sooo much more to do 😬 #indiedev #indiegame #gamedev #UnrealEngine #ue4

[Craig Woodward @bronzedev]

One job always leads to another, not happy with the torch fire particle system, so guess what this mornings job is... #indiedev #indiegame #gamedev #UnrealEngine #UE4

Look at the time, where has the day gone! Cinematic sequencing work is a time sink, I’ve not even had lunch! I’ll post some videos tomorrow of work done today 👍🏻. #indiedev #indiegame #gamedev #UnrealEngine #ue4

[Craig Woodward @bronzedev]

Working from my bar in Manchester today, bit of cinematic sequencing as I start to put a level together, no beer for me though ☹️. #indiedev #indiegame #gamedev #unrealengine #ue4

[Craig Woodward @bronzedev]

Flowcharts, screenplay and data tables, not the most exciting, but essential parts of game development that can’t be ignored. Story is everything! #indiedev #gamedev #indiegame #unrealengine #ue4

@kmonkeyblog Ha ha any days a good day to put off the gardening 👍🏻
