Too many testers tried to burn the dog for us not to add an easter egg… Steam page for A Corporate Machine coming soon!

Check out this neat in-game succulent plant for our game A Corporate Machine

It’s just a little house plant, it’s definitely not sitting there silently judging you, it’s way too chill for that.

A game lever in Godot game engine. Lots of small icons over a scene with a blocked up 3D office with lots of dirt in it.

This week we’ve finalised more assets for #godot screenshots for a Steam Page, made a template scene in #blender to show said assets, and dirtied up the prototype to see how much time players can spend just making it look nice, without respawning dirt #indiegame #gamedev #screenshotsaturday

As Swedes that grew up in the 8s and 90s we're really more Amiga 500 lovers, but the Commodore just had a such a cool look.

🧡 you can keep up with us here on Bluesky or on most other socials, and we'll let you know as soon as we've got a Steam page up for wish-listing.

None can question Omega Global's dedication to the environment, not with such an efficient incenerator installed!

In A Corporate Machine you play as Sanitron TC-84, the world's most overqualified robot vacuum cleaner.
Unseen and underappreciated, but also free to shake things up!

The environment in our game, A Corporate Machine, is inspired by tech and interior decoration from the 70s to the 90s. But with more advanced capabilities like wireless communication protocols and one heck of a smart robot vacuum cleaner. #indiegame #gamedev #screenshotsaturday #blender #godot

We’re experimenting with different ways for our little vacuum cleaner robot to interact with the office workers. Unionize today for table tennis breaks!

A 3d render of two characters eating slices of pizza while a cure robot vacuum cleaner pulls a full sized pie along the floor, leaving a greasy trail behind. On a small table in the background there is a stack of pizza boxes and some party hats. A sign on the table reads: Q2 celebratory Pizza Party, 1 slice per employee" and the Q2 text is printed on a swappable card.

We're doing thumbnail sketches to capture the tone of the narrative in A Corporate Machine. They're also perfect fodder when developing the look of the game #indiegame #gamedev #blender #screenshotsaturday

This is some of the most succinct takes we’ve ever read! Everything here aligns 💯 with our experience, and it is definitely how we’ll try to run our own studio.

We're kicking off 2026 with some more tweaks on the demo, and getting a head start on a more polished future version by working on a template rig for the human NPCs in our game A Corporate Machine #screenshotsaturday #Blender #indiegame #gamedev #acorporatemachine

For this #screenshotsaturday, we’re going back in time some months to share a silly trial render from when we were exploring the look of the office dwellers in A Corporate Machine.
We’ve since ditched the thumb-shaped heads… but the overall look and feel is still there #gamedev #indiegame #blender

concept art of two office workers. one "inexplicably cool accountant" and one "ambitious corp goon". The cool accountant has a beanie hat and hair infront of their face, making a cool hand gesture. The ambitious corp goon looks like a know it all bootlicker, with a blazer and slicked back hair

Concept art of an "it-goth" and a "sould drained long ago". Soul drained is an old man who looks just that, soul drained. The it-goth looks like an introvert wearing purple, with a pentagram necklace

Got any fun ideas for office people? We've started concepting all sorts of fun little guys that you might encounter in A Corporate Machine. Would love to hear people's ideas, or examples of interesting folks you've worked with at your own jobs! #indiedev #conceptart #gamedev
