So like, what if Superliminal was a horror game?! Let's find out on one of my most hyped games of this year SUBLIMINAL! We're back! Live on Twitch at 2:15PM UK time today! Hopefully see you all there Canines! 😍😍😎💖 #twitch #liminal #backrooms #gamersunite #horrorgame #smallstreamer #subliminal #fun

I need to get a YouTube set up to archive my Let’s Plays.

I had my first stream last night: Shell of a King by @rosunestudios.bsky.social The game is super good. The bullet-hell/souls-like mix works great. The level design is where it’s at tho. It has a metroidvania-esque labyrinth of a world, and there’s something fun and interesting in every corner.

lots of bug fixes today! Wisps no longer try and run away from you and instead try and weave side to side, The first level wasnt saving whether or not you ahd the sword at the begining, and the start screen can load the last level, etc #pico8 #gamedev #indiegamedev #indiegame #pixelart #umbragame

Super excited to announce that Shell of a King v2.0 is finally here, and with that, we are officially departing Early Access! It's been a long journey, and I wouldn't have made it here without everyone's support. So thank you, and I hope you enjoy v2.0 of Shell of a King! 💜

Someone said my game looks like Adventure Time.. It's actually inspired by Moebius! #sologame #adventure #platformer

How water works in our game 🌊🌊

Space Hunter - Released by Kemco in 1986 for Famicom, it features non-linear gameplay, a female protagonist, and came only a month after Metroid. 7 asteroids served as the levels with a switch between 2D and top-down gameplay. It's also not good with laggy combat, few songs, and dated graphics.

I remember getting this game for Christmas, and being unsure of it (even though yes I asked for it), then watching the opening cutscene and being just blown away ❤️

Update for DropShot mobile is live right now! play the first 20 levels for free! linktr.ee/aerial_knight

Been reworking the egg level in #DinoCleanup, I wanted to make a little playground of different courses to take each egg through. What do you think?

Happy to be a part of this! Huge thanks to @bitnerd.gvg.io for inviting me over to write an essay on this book about the history, present and future of 3D Metroidvanias! Can't wait for you all to check it out!

This animation is a Dark Souls 3 reference btw. And I hope I don’t have to say this, but there’s no AI here.

It’s #screenshotsaturday if you are an #indiedev I wont stop you from showing me the #indiegame you are working on right now!!! 👁️👁️ Here is mine though!

Hey guys. This gif is the first pixel art project I’ve ever seen to completion. I carved every frame by hand in aseprite. It may not look like much but I’m very proud of it. I stream indie games on twitch. Give me a follow. twitch.tv/thepixelsoup

This study calls it “post-game depression” and maybe kinda frames it as a bad thing? To me it is an acute and profound emotional note, something I value deeply and seek out, even if it does leave me feeling kind of wrung out afterwards

I have a favor to ask. I have a gaming YouTube channel where I make indie reviews, gamedev interviews, and video essays. Your sub would help me reach a wider audience, so please give it a look! youtube.com/@andresplays...

We all know how tumultuous the games industry is. Every time I hear this sad sad story of executives unable to pay the talent that made them rich, I hear a story of mismanagement. Hats off to the talent that made fortnight great, and a prayer for a games industry that’s not anti-labor.

I actually love this style. There another one for The List.

Unless there is an exceptionally good reason for not doing it, art placeholders should always look like placeholders. The goofier, the better. 😁 #Blasphemous

I love this art style. And - is that a co-op metroidvania I see?

How long did it take me to make Shell of a King? 4 years, 1 month, and 5 days😵‍💫🤯 #indiegame #gamedev #solodev #indiegames
