Yay. $100k is bankruptcy for pretty much everyone. But it’s ok cos they made steam $30k before they folded.

Now would be a good time for anyone who wants to learn about recent Iranian history to read this. It is well worth your time and money (I am sure your local library has it if you don’t want to purchase it).

When we started developing We Grew Up in War, we hoped the war in Ukraine will be over well before we finish. Our game is dedicated to all those, whose lives were affected by the war that now enters its fourth year, instigated by the cruel Russian regime.

This game is something different, check it out!

The people of Ukraine continue to endure ongoing Russian aggression. From February 2 to 9, we’ll donate 100% of the proceeds from our games and DLC on all platforms to People In Need in support of humanitarian aid in Ukraine.

I think most game dev teams underestimate how damaging slow workflows are to the ultimate quality of their game. If it takes 5 minutes to launch the game and see your changes, I think your game is going to be MUCH worse than the alternate timeline where it took 1 minute

GIFT ARTICLE (no paywall). Masterpiece reporting here from Adam. He deserves awards for this. “This is my first occupation,” Olsen said as I climbed into the truck. “Welcome to the underground, I guess.”

I have felt increasingly out of step with mainstream Judaism over the past several years, but I cannot imagine how you could work at a Holocaust Museum and envision your role in this way. I just cannot imagine.

Another friend put it to me like this: "ICE has made the classic Nazi mistake. They've invaded a winter people in the winter."

Scotland intends to grow its gaming ecosystem to more than £1 billion by 2030 as part of an initiative implemented by the Scottish Games Network www.gamesindustry.biz/scotland-aim...

We are so proud to officially announce our upcoming game We Grew Up in War in cooperation with War Childhood Museum. This narrative adventure explores the stories of children growing up during armed conflicts in Bosnia, Syria, and Ukraine. More at store.steampowered.com/app/3254380/...

Jesus, can you hear me? Good, the comms are working. Now, you're gonna need to run if you want to evade those Roman soldiers. Hold down A to sprint. Go ahead and try it. ... Good work! You just might be the savior yet. Now pick up that AR-15 and let's do some target practice.

Interesting take, my game-designer side says yes, my producer-programmer side is horrified.

When it comes to climate change, "games can empower the belief that people can make a difference," says Volha Kapitonava of Positive Impact Games. "The key ingredient that makes this possible, in my opinion, is joy." www.gamesindustry.biz/joy-is-the-r...

Any guesses what Bashar al-Assad is playing in his exile in Russia? #indiegames from www.euronews.com/2025/12/08/o...

Don't sleep on this one

We all want the shiny thing. The skill is in knowing what is shiny and doable, and what is shiny and complete fantasy

It’s Czech & Slovak Games Week and that means we have several We Grew Up in War streams scheduled. One is ongoing just now! Tune in and see our game in action, including the first look ever on the Ukrainian part of story. -> store.steampowered.com/app/3254380/... #indiegame #indiegames

Looks really dope!

The memories... <3

Tired: game-pricing discourse Wired: more games like this 👇

pictured: me rebuilding all my games for a patched version of unity because security issue only a couple of weeks after i already did it because of platform requirements.

The three types of game dev job listings

I wrote an Intro to Puzzle Design article🧩 This covers the usual points I discuss with people who are working on their first puzzle game. Given how some concepts can be quite abstract, I think a written piece allows everyone to digest it at their own pace. www.ludipe.com/2025/08/18/i...

the thing about "just make it exist, make it good later" is that unfortunately three key challenges in game development are 1. deciding what should exist 2. deciding when to make things good 3. deciding what 'good' means

So after finishing a game about the beauty of Prague, this is a good reality check that our beloved city still has ways to go (also it's hilarious 11) www.youtube.com/watch?v=YZXz...

What privilege, to be tasked with gamifying my hometown of Prague. Hope people like it :)

Mainstream games coverage makes little sense when mainstream people have no idea how to buy a game any more. “Normal” people don’t visit the App Store for fun; they don’t know steam exists and it’s scary and overwhelming if you find it. They know about switches but those are “for kids”.

free advice for game developers: try to make the next smash hit video game, such as grand theft auto. if you do, you'll be making more than just a video game – you'll be making millions of dollars

We're looking for a writer to help us out with a very special game project. It deals with trauma, war and kids. We're looking for an English native speaker with game writing experience, remote. Get in touch here or write us at [email protected] reports appriciated! #gamedev #gamewriting #writing

We were in Cairo! @ondrejpaska.bsky.social facilitated a workshop where people made concepts for new digital games. We’d love to see them happen! Thanks Czech Centres for having us as part of the Infinite Universes exhibition🪐& Czech Radio for coverage (CZ): radiozurnal.rozhlas.cz/mafia-znam-c...

reposting this until gdc is held in europe/canada

I'm having to deal with javscript again, how does this make any sense to anyone? #javascript

5 years of CG 🥳

Uff, strong subject line skills here

IGF finally posted the full list of entries, so here comes the playlist. 444 videos for your amusement! www.youtube.com/playlist?lis...

Production is one of the areas in games where teams tend to have a significantly higher percentage of non-men in these roles, so I think that definitely is a factor. Production is often treated like the fun police or “mom” and that attitude doesn’t help get the game out the door.

Wonderful! If you’re somebody interested in using games in historical education, the last lesson of this tutorial series explores just that – using our games and adding a bunch of resources. Thanks so much for your work, means a lot to us.

This really ought to be made into a TV documentary series

Happy Hogswatch! Ho! Ho! Ho!

looks cool imo

Nejkrásnější město na Zemi od @stbiler.bsky.social zatím úplně top, valím se smíchy, ačkoliv občas z toho mrazí, doporučuju (kupte na eshopu alarmu)

Here's a peak at our dev process and tools!

Preach 🙏

POSTER! It's so nice to get some physical artifact, the game now feels more real somehow.

Today is the day to play this game! :)

I teach middleware (practical programming) to game design students and here's my ✨Top 7 Universal Technical Game Dev Tips✨ I mostly work in Unity, but these should generally apply to all engines. Please add more, if you have some ideas! 🧵 #gamedev #indiedev #programming #UnityTips #Unity3d
