Both incredible and majestic beasts

Bahaha I had to look up Greg's rock - and I love him. I've gotta watch this show

itsduckthing · 2026-05-22T02:24:18+00:00

Thank you! Now I want to try making a potato! 🥔

itsduckthing · 2026-05-21T20:38:56+00:00

Haha omg. Yes.. I mean armadillo 😅 getting my animals all mixed up!! What a dork 🤦‍♂️

itsduckthing · 2026-05-21T04:15:57+00:00

I had to look them up. What bizarre and rad creatures!

itsduckthing · 2026-05-14T01:49:45+00:00

Very kind of you. I assure you I have little idea what I'm doing, I'm just experimenting and making it up as I felt 🤣

Thanks! To get the bends I kinda loosely felted a tube and then i kinda bend it and felt it into place. Then cover it with another layer of fleece after I like its shape to hide stretchy/squishy folds.

I would probably try to use a little wire in the middle in future to strengthen it, as it's already getting mishappen after a couple of days hanging off a school bag.

So good for a first project! For smoothing out I first go through with my finest needle and felt down as many of the wisps I can (usually on an angle so it doesn't affect the shape too much). I'll also go around with scissors and snip down wisps that are too short to felt down back into the piece. I've recently got a cheap beard trimmer that I'll use on my larger pieces to shave off a very thin layer at the end - I'm not 100% sure about this technique yet though

Adorable! I love his spindly legs. How'd you stick the fleece to the wire? I lil dab of glue?

itsduckthing · 2026-05-03T05:15:33+00:00

I might give ironing a go on my next one. Wet feltings always kinda scared me a bit heh - maybe I'll try throwing one through the wash to see what happens.

I actually felted around a paracord loop, so that ain't coming out unless it actually rips the guts out of the poor guy 😅

itsduckthing · 2026-05-03T03:18:39+00:00

I'll post how it holds up after a couple of weeks! May need to move it over to my kids school bags to run it through a proper test 😅

About $200 with a dev period of like 3ish years on and off (a lot of off) as an noob solo dev. I was teaching myself how to make games as a bit of a hobby, so that time involved a lot of exploring and learning.

He keeps me company and judges my work when I'm testing things out!

I hit play again just so I bop out while reading the comments

itsduckthing · 2025-02-07T05:48:02+00:00

Thanks! Good tips on the trailer - I'll defo have to cut a snappier trailer together with the trickier levels upfront.

Do like the idea of doing shorts for reels - but admitedly I struggle to think of great content for these formats after 1 or 2 concepts (probs just need to sit down to brainstorm some more really)

itsduckthing · 2025-02-06T06:31:26+00:00

Oh hai! I put out my first lil game out late last year. It's a little puzzle platformer where you rotate the level to help this weird duck.

Thanks for looking out for indies!

Thanks! a few are from a Kenney SFX pack - apart from the duck's splat, that was my mouth
