Vegetation concepts WIP.

"Pancito" the furry supervisor stopped by to make sure everything met his standars.

Proof that sometimes when someone says “my supervisor was breathing down my neck,” they’re not exaggerating 😅

Side project in the making:

Invincible fences were a bit too good at their job 😅
Now they’re segmented with pressure points.

Rampaging (stressed) capsules can snap them instead of bouncing forever.

WIP, placeholders included.

Can you guess the character from this silhouette? 👀

Silhouettes don’t lie… or do they?
No wrong answers, just fun guesses 😜.

Next month we will reveal it!

Some ideas start small. 🐛
This one is also fluffy. 🧶

Why does a fluffy pink worm exist in our game? We swear it’s not just because it’s Valentine’s Day.

There’s a good reason. ✨

Last year we received funding from Medienboard Berlin-Brandenburg for our first in-house project. A big step for our small, Berlin-based indie team and the start of everything we’re building now.

More soon, stay tuned! ☺️

Hey!

Side project progress:
Non-physics chain tests, camera zones, visual feedback in motion.

Built with ThreeJS. Nothing final, just exploring motion, responsiveness, and small details.

Debugging life, one scrambled egg at a time.
The build’s stable. The breakfast? Slightly overpowered.
And yes… I went back for seconds. 😅

What was your fuel today?
