Our OKU team recently won an award for the games outstanding visuals! I still remember the intense discussion that ultimately lead us to go for this art style. But in the end that is what counts: Creating something new and authentic!

Did some painting yesterday 😌👌

It still is a truly magic activity to me. The way painting just switches you to a completely different state is quite astonishing.

Gyms, Zoos, and Museums: Your documentation should be in-game
Gyms, Zoos, and Museums: Your documentation should be in-game YouTube video by Robin-Yann Storm

A video on gyms, zoos and museums! A must-watch by @rystorm.com for any indie out there. Goes into why you should choose different ways of documentation sometimes, learned a lot myself!

PRÜF – Prüfung Rettet Übrigens Freiheit. Wir fordern, alle politischen Parteien auf Verfassungstreue zu prüfen. Bundesweite Kundgebungen am Samstag, 13. Dezember, 14:00 Uhr - in München auf dem Geschwister-Scholl-Platz. Alle Parteien, die vom Verfassungsschutz als rechtsextremer Verdachtsfall oder gesichert rechtsextrem eingestuft werden, sollen durch das Bundesverfassungsgericht überprüft werden. Es ist Parteien in Deutschland verboten, die Demokratie abzuschaffen. In Deutschland wird alles geprüft - von der Produktsicherheit bis zur Wasserqualität. Es wäre absurd, ausgerechnet bei der existenziellen Frage unserer Demokratie auf eine Prüfung zu verzichten.

I used to have a rule for the production of our first game Ecognomix: if a feature is too complex - as in requires multiple days to develop we don't do it.

This turned out to be pretty great to keep scope and complexity down. (Even though we obviously ignored it a few times)

I accidentally grew some millet on my balcony. 🤭 I now harvested it and am putting it in the freezer for the birds in the winter ❄️🐦‍⬛

Also got some winter salad seeds from my mom. Excited to see if I will manage to grow them! 🌿

(Just felt like sharing sth cozy in turbulent times)

OKU just gathered 100.000 wishlists!

🙏We are deeply honored for the trust of so many people!🙏
A few months ago no one here would have ever dreamed of the game doing so well. May our young monk keep traveling far to spread the joy of poetry.

Thank you for the amazing support!

Yes! I mean the 2D polygons. How did you approach authoring those?

20.06.2025 07:11 👍 1 🔁 0 💬 1 📌 0

I see, thanks for clarifying! Do you just create the models in a 3D software or do you use some in engine tool for that?

How do you set up the levels though? Are all those cliffs just lots of cleverly stitched textures? 👀

Valve's 30% Platform Tax is Bad for Small Developers It's time to follow Epic's lead by offering 0% fees on each dev's first $1 million.

www.pushtotalk.gg/p/valves-30-...

Valve’s ‘make the rich richer’ policy is so fucking infuriating. if 97% of devs on steam account for ‘only’ 15% of revenue as this article states, surely creating goodwill among that “majority” would be a smart move, at least?! wake up, valve. ffs.
