Hobbyist gamdev making a stealth strategy game about a kitten looking for her kidnapped mum.

Going for a stroll in the new level 🐈

This is the first version of the speech bubble art. It's a decent start, but something is missing. What do you think?

@SgtSpinker Just found your game today and gotta say those animations look slick!

[IronBytes @bytes_iron]

I'm back from a summer break. So far I made lots of bugfixes and had my wife playtest the game. Said it was boring, so I might be on the right track, since she generally doesn't like the genre 😅

I've been waiting to defenestrate people for far too long!

Somehow I feel like I haven't done the water justice in my last post.

Didn't feel like doing anything today so I thought 'might as well work on the game'🌊 Now I have water 🌊

I appreciate any tips on how to improve upon it, as I'm still not sure what style I'm looking for.

Placing tutorials into the world so the player can ignore them 😅
What kind of visual would you expect? I feel like while this glowing circle is suitable, it is breaking the immersion.

@moulinauxbulles They look nice. Have a screenshot of my temporary main menu. For context: It's a stealth game and the cat in this image is the player character.

@oscar_leites Thanks 🙂 Creadit goes to Jose (Dogzerx) Díaz on the Unity asset store.

Missed #screenshotsaturday, so I'll use #screenshotsunday instead and you can't stop me!

This one I call "Beginnings of a main window"

@Sparticadev Looks neat. Why is it called star gather?

[IronBytes @bytes_iron]

Steam Tacticon is around the corner. If you make a strategy game and have a demo or released the game or a major update within the last year, you can sign up here: https://t.co/PmWuCnz4gV

What do you think of an embedded tutorial?

[IronBytes @bytes_iron]

For the last 3 weeks I took unpaid leave to work full time on the game. Here's a before/after comparison.

The 3 weeks trial full time development are gone in a heartbeat. This is the final look that I've come up with.

Just a quick WIP shot of the new environment.

[IronBytes @bytes_iron]

I completely underestimated how much research goes into creating game environments.
Going through the process myself makes me appreciate the work of #leveldesign and #environmentart much more.

Which areas of #gamedevs did you underestimate before being in those shoes? #IndieDevs

[IronBytes @bytes_iron]

@delagorepixels Looks more like a flick to me than a kick...

[IronBytes @bytes_iron]

@sensational965 It's Stealth strategy but without violence. This game will put your problem solving skills to the test if your used to just taking out all the guards and then going for a walk through the empty level.
