Visions MindTested some #art ideas during the weekend. Nothing final - far from final yet! This is basically a Look-Dev room for testing art style and brainstorm ideas. 🎨🖌️ #UE4 #UnrealEngine #UE4Study #gamedev #IndieGameDev #indiedev #3D #stylized #retrogames
Taking a break from 3D and started to work on Sound Design and Music for the thing. Here's a small little funny teaser of the process for one of the Sound Effects. #UE4 #UnrealEngine #UE4Study #gamedev #indiedev #indiegame #sound #sounddesign #sfx #soundeffects #process #wip
I guess it has a title now! Lol. I just enjoy creating random album art, and had fun making some more sound stuff, so why not?! #teaser #gamedev #indiedev #WIP #prototype #MastoArt #itsjustaprototypebutikeepmakingstuffcantstopplshelp
Yes! I did end up making a small three-part soundtrack for the prototype! 🎶🥁🎺🎻🎶 Now, on to sound implementation! https://visions-mind.bandcamp.com/album/inexorable-dungeon

Inexorable Dungeon, by Visions Mind
3 track album
With client work and some health stuff progress on the project has been slow, but it's going, whenever there's free time and energy. Here's a quick screenshot of some tests while I work on the 3D assets. Again, nothing final - just experimenting with looks and planning the assets. #gamedev #indiedev #CreativeToots #wip #3d #games #fantasy #retro
Making some level design decisions! Things are unlocking and progress can continue! Need more time, though! #workinprogress #gamedev #leveldesign
I'm probably not going to use BSP workflows for much longer...🤔 But here is the blockout for the first level. Simple and straight forward, the main goal is to teach/practice basic movement. #leveldesign #indiegame #gamedev #3d #indiedev
Lots to do, but starting to look like something. Sooner or later I'll have to find a better solution for the 3rd person camera collision system🤔. But for now work on #leveldesign and environment art continues. #screenshotsaturday #UnrealEngine #gamedev #IndieGameDev #Blender3d
Quick update: most of the base structure of the space if filled in - BSPs have been swapped by the modular kit and the fun part is about to begin with some detail meshes/etc, storytelling VFX and lighting! #ue4 #MastoArt #mastodev #UnrealEngine #gamedev #indiegame #leveldesign #3d
Just published a #Itchio page for the prototype! Your feedback is welcome! :D #indiegame #UnrealEngine #3D #gamedev #indiedev #UE4 #MastoArt #mastodev https://visionsmind.itch.io/inexorable-dungeon
Back from a break and started implementing basic sound stuff to ease back into it. Goopy-goops now makes sounds when it moves! :) Interesting how being used to do Sound Design for linear media has me re-think a lot of things when doing it for interactive. Every sound has to be super self-contained and "modular". I'll record some progress video as soon as I have something! Still need to adjust somethings in regards to the core gameplay as well.
Alright! First Sound 🔊🎶🎚️ implementation ever! Far from finished yet! Either way, happy that I've managed to make a more or less flexible system. Plug in your headphones! #ue4 #gamedev #GameAudio #WIP #indiedev #indiegame #UnrealEngine #madewithunreal #MastoArt #mastodev
Having some fun trying some ideas for the Button - both 3D and Sound. Really like this idea of having mechanisms inside the walls/floor/etc that trigger the door 🙂 #ue4 #UnrealEngine #madewithunreal #3d #sounddesign #gameaudio #gameart #gamedev #indiedev #indiegame #WIP #MastoArt #mastodev
I've recorded bits of the recording 🎙️ for the button SFX. So here is a small montage. This audio is from the phone, not the recording itself. #sounddesign #gamedevelopment #indiedev #indiegame #soundrecording #MastoArt
Made a new SFX Loop for when the goop enters the no-gravity fields! 😁 🔊🛸 #GameAudio #gamedev #sounddesign #UE4 #UnrealEngine #madewithunreal #indiegame #IndieGameDev #prototype #WIP #MastoArt #mastodev
Using samples from the last recording session (above in thread) I've designed and implemented the sound for the physics objects! 2 types of impacts, scraping SFX, and modulation for objects with size above a threshold. #GameAudio #gamedev #UnrealEngine #IndieGameDev #WIP #MastoArt #mastodev
More SFX recorded, designed and implemented! Now for wooden physics objects! :D #GameAudio #gamedev #UnrealEngine #IndieGameDev #WIP #MastoArt #mastodev
Alright! And with this update, SFX for the physics objects are done for now! 🎙️🔊 there are still a few things left to do in regards to Sound, but it's almost at a "prototype-ready" point! #GameAudio #gamedev #UnrealEngine #IndieGameDev #WIP #MastoArt #mastodev
Got most of the sound stuff done for now. Shifted back to art for a bit. Started to make the first variations for the limbs. Goopy-goops can now assimilate arms 💪! #GameAudio #blender3d #UnrealEngine #IndieGameDev #WIP #MastoArt #mastodev
Alright! Limbs 🦵💪 are done for now as well! Quite happy with how it turned out! 😃 #gamedev #UnrealEngine #IndieGameDev #WIP #MastoArt #mastodev #3d
Started working on some VFX. I've recorded this clip to show the first version of the Goop slime trail. Not perfect, but happy with it for now. #realtimeVFX #gamedev #UnrealEngine #IndieGameDev #WIP #MastoArt #mastodev #3d
Another effect!I's a basic jump vfx for visual feedback. It's subtle, but has to be so, because I'll be making a more "popping" for the charged jump! #realtimevfx #gamedev #UnrealEngine #IndieGameDev #WIP #MastoArt #mastodev #3d
Alright! VFX for the base player mechanics done for now! Might do some tweaking/adjustments, but for now I'll move on to the rest of the needed vfx. #GameDev #UnrealEngine #IndieGame #WIP #MastoArt
Finally back to working on this! After some struggle to create a Blueprint that helps manage Water Leaks type VFX through the levels, here's the result for now! :) This allows me to easily have water dripping (from small few drips to rain-like stuff), toggle running water (water-fall type of thing), and the splashes effects can also be toggled and are automatically positioned at the end of the waterfall with the correct scaling, etc. #gamedev #realtimevfx #unrealengine #IndieGame #MastoArt
I think I might add a short narrated intro to this dumb prototype. 80's Sword&Sorcery movie style 🤣
Implemented some dust vfx kicking up when doors Open/close. This is generic enough to accommodate for the door static mesh shape, particle system bounds, so it's always in the correct position even if I change the door mesh. #IndieGame #realtimevfx #gameart #gamedev
Forgot to post this update! The last VFX for now (prototype). Gravity fields now provide some visual feedback! :D

Been running around the clock to try get a build done for a small contest. Tough last 2days..☠️ .. hey! At least got things to a prettier stage and so far (been testing builds) got it to run at ~60fps on my not so powerful laptop! I'll update here w/ some imgs soon! Pheew! Time to get back to the "run" see if I can get this done in time to submit! 😅
Boop! Premature build sent! Now I need a couple days of rest, and then jump into making a nice tiny intro animation thing for the project. Lots to do still before it reaches a stage I'm happy with. Don't think I'll stand any chances of anything with the submission. But it made me do a lot of progress in a very short amount of time though, so there's that! I'll gather some posts to update what's new here in the next days.
I've never though I'd be able to do an even half-decent job for it, but today I've managed to record the voices for the cheesy 80's fantasy style narrator for the prototype intro and a a couple of lines for when the player dies... damn I'm so stoked with how these turned out! :D. Now failing those jumps should have a new meaning xD.
Here's a little montage showing some of the implemented voice lines. #gamedev #IndieGame #GameAudio

It's out! Released the prototype! Finally considering it done for now! Time to move on to the next one! There still a lot of things I would like to improve on this one. In time I might come back to the "goopy-goop" and improve things, add more levels, etc. But I've learned a lot! https://visionsmind.itch.io/inexorable-dungeon #gamedev #IndieGame #prototype #game #unrealengine
Wookbee@visionsmind Looks great!
@wookbee Thank you! 😃 Glad you like how it looks!
Aaron is project planning@visionsmind That door sound is great and with the dust is really satisfying
@aaron_codes Thank you so much! I'm glad how the sound stuff turned out especially! I only had previous experience with designing sound for linear media. It was super fun to both record, design and implement! :D The thing is out now! You can play the tinny prototype!
