New dev-log post about the engine/framework/tools I've been using for prototyping and now pre-production of my game kinemat.dev/posts/what-a... #indiedev #gamedev #monogame #love2d #unity3d #devlog

The Interactive Futures event is happening today and tomorrow, and earlier I was in a panel discussing the future of outsourcing, giving my perspective as a co-dev. 🎮 It was a great discussion talking about the benefits and challenges within the outsourcing area of the industry. ☺️ 1/5

Found this in a box while tidying up the loft, I've not touched it since it launched in 2012, and didn't realise it was still running. I wonder what it, and the legends remake, is like?

In case you missed it with EVERYTHING ELSE GOING ON. We recently launched version 0.1 of our deck-builder game-finding (dating?) app. Shares appreciated. - What's new: www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ujrv... - Back on Kickstarter to get early access: www.kickstarter.com/projects/lud...

Before going on holiday, we were discussing whether to bring our Switches or other handhelds for the trip. Then I realised - I've not played a recent game in my spare time in months, probably a year! I frantically looked through the switch store for something, but very little took my interest.🧵1/7

Timely reminder (for full explanation see youtu.be/sPehhHZvKE8) #gamedev #indiedev #accessibility

What’s the Difference Between WCAG, the EAA, and EN 301 549? Complex topic indeed. I love a good food metaphor, so here we go: - WCAG is the cookbook that tells you how to prepare accessible digital content. - The EAA is the food safety law: it makes serving accessible content mandatory in the EU.

I made a bunch of one page tips on #gamedev with stuff that I learned over the years. It leans towards the direction + production side. This is stuff that worked for me, maybe it can be of use for you. Here is a thread of tips, starting with keeping your project on track with timeboxing 🧵 1/20

Been thinking about game design documents a lot again lately, and recalled doing a thread about how to make them accessible over on the other site. So I thought I'd reshare here, with a few improvements for good measure, just help remind myself too. #gamedesign #gamedev #design 🧵

🦋 Looking for some great accounts to follow? May we suggest all of the #Gaconf speakers we've managed to track down so far? A great mix of game devs, accessibility advocates and disabled gamers all in one place! #gamedev #a11y go.bsky.app/JCwPeM3

So many great learnings from today's @gaconf.bsky.social, some of it definitely needs re-watching with a non-foggy brain. This quote from the talk Selling Progress has stuck with me though: "Patience is the acceptance that things can happen in a different order than the one you have in mind."

Ubisoft released a color blind simulation tool today, called UbiChroma. The free and open source tool enables developers to test for color blind accessibility issues in real-time. Fitting existing workflows, it can help catch color blind issues early. caniplaythat.com/2025/04/14/u...

Covid test says I can't go to gaConf now. I'm so gutted, I was really looking forward to it 😞😷

All packed and ready to go to @gaconf.bsky.social tomorrow, second time going in-person since 2019 and really looking forward to it.

Sometimes content gets cut because of time and money. Sometimes it gets cut because it doesn't work. Sometimes because it's bad and you have to get rid of it so it doesn't poison the good parts. For better and worse, the thing you're playing is the thing.

It's a week today 🎉 Looking forward to seeing you all there! #gamedev #indiedev #accessibility
