For the last year, my workmate and I have been working on a hobby project in our spare time. The game is called Noctus Quarry and it is a 3D ARPG mining game with a focus on exploration, combat, upgrading and progression.

So far we have implemented the majority of the main features for a vertical slice including:

  • Infinite chunk based world

  • Biomes, dungeons, ore generation, structures

  • Monsters, tiers, AI and skill system

  • ARPG movement and combat system

  • Item system with crafting mechanics

  • Mission system with progress tracking

  • Upgradable skills with several paths

  • Intro and tutorial system

  • Lore, story, music and narrator


The goal is to 'finish' up the current set of features, polish the initial experience and create a demo for people to play.

It has been really fun working on a game project on the side, especially with another senior engineer who has been complementing my skills and interests well.


You can follow our progress on our Instragram, Discord or our new website (still WIP) below:
