Screenshot Saturday! The day the place game builders get an opportunity to self-promote freely due to the ability of a Twitter hashtag asking them to take action, and the remainder of us get to look on in awe of the magic of how the sausage will get made. This week: a stranded cottage within the woods, an offended kitty, and a few snap-together structure.
First up, here’s a very candy house within the forest from goat- and fox-led 3D platformer Billy Bust Up. Sure, there’s no bridge but, however I wouldn’t thoughts swimming that little creek each time I needed to get to the opposite aspect.

Piling up the totally different shaded textures like that may be a neat means so as to add selection with out color. Othercide is deliberate for launch in 2020.
