five years ago today i published my senior thesis project That Which Faith Demands, an interactive fiction game about salvaging a fallen mech made from the body of a god jannouna.itch.io/that-which-f...

⭐a new patreon post, just for a patrons! as of today, we start writing diary posts that discuss progress on EP02, some life updates, how we approach writing a scene, and some of the core themes of the game. we welcome feedback & questions in the comments. thanks! 👉 www.patreon.com/posts/ep02-c...

i think any discussion of getting into games needs to acknowledge the difference between pursuing game making as a craft vs game making as an industry

mowing a lawn has got to be the most pointless and wasteful endeavor the suburban mind has invented as an expectation to do with your time and that's not even getting into ecology about it

I heard this one's quite good

hello I was in the same cultivator sect as you six past lives ago. would you like to talk about erotic software games

vestige, the first city

i feel like the yankees are obsessed with playing baseball. almost every day they’re like oh, we’re gonna play a baseball game, or like oh, we’re gonna wear baseball uniforms today. and it’s just like, okay

i don't believe in posting through it or centering my Diaspora Feelings over what my family and friends are living through in real time so i will refrain from expanding this into a whole thread of angst. please donate to mutual aid efforts in lebanon www.chuffed.org/project/1719...

the more you try to design a man to be (conventionally) handsome, the less appealing they become... so only design weirdos that feel real in such a way that it loops back around to being appealing and, to the correct few, handsome. the connoisseur's motto

the court strategist has done much to seem approachable. can't you tell

i only have deeply unserious promo art ideas

thank you all so much for 9k downloads, across both itch and steam! it's a strong wind in our sails as we work on episode 2 ❤️ if you've yet to play it yourself, you can grab WHODUNNIT episode 1 here: s.team/a/4322950 #furryvn

“It’s inevitable” “you can’t roll it back” “you just have to accept it”

This interview is banger quote after banger quote.

“In those days, the only way I had to work out the disagreement was to make a game where we could disagree." Emily Zhu (朱保敬) tells us about the cyberpunk wuxia of Ten Thousand Days For The Sword, and why genre alone fails to capture the RPG's belief that violence can be beautiful and liberatory.

"placeholder text" "concept art" either the temporary thing you put in matters to the process, in which case you need to get a human to work on it, or it doesn't, in which case you can just as easily put a bright pink rectangle that says PLACEHOLDER in and save everyone time and effort

It’s official - Carved in Stone is finally available in the USA, through the one and only @ipr.bsky.social ! You can order your copy directly from them (alongside a host of other beautiful books and games!) www.indiepressrevolution.com/xcart/Carved...

"The Pentagon and the White House would surely prefer if the American public blamed the slaughter of little girls and boys on a faceless computer program and not the human beings who programmed that computer [...] or the commanders who can’t even tell us why this war is happening."

Foliage Shader is working great so far! 😤😤😤 #gamedev #shaders

couldn't quote repost but i feel like i have to say (and this might be a surprise to some) but i am completely neutral about baseball and might even go to say i don't like it that much at all

FINALLY had the chance to play this and what a treat. i genuinely can't believe this vn is free. super-stylish mystery work with great dialogue writing, gorgeous presentation, and also plenty of "the author's big interest is clearly on display" (in this case its baseball)

Howie whodunnit is so eyesballs

assorted sketches... more time to draw for myself would be nice

I released my 3rd Kala Mandala adventure — Tragedy at Zaya’s Theatre — last week. It’s heavily inspired by two things: Southeast Asian/Indian performing arts, and how so many things (e.g. objects, plants) have sentience in SEA. What if non-material things like theatre plays can become sentient?

📣 The first episode of WHODUNNIT, "Hitting Singles", is OUT NOW! Follow "regular guy" Howie Falk as he chases down the ghost of his own gay virginity — and trips, repeatedly, over the problems of everyone else. ⭐ s.team/a/4322950 ⭐ donattico.itch.io/whodunnit #furry #indiegame #fvn #whodunnitvn

It looks like in order to be the best writer in the world I first have to learn about everything in the world, which is gonna cut into my writing time somewhat

He's not like that. 📣 The first episode of WHODUNNIT, "Hitting Singles", will release soon in Steam and Itch for free! Stay tuned for more information, and make sure to wishlist the game to be notified when it releases! store.steampowered.com/app/3851280/... #fvn #furry #indiegame #whodunnitvn

That's what I'm talking about.

here's some whodunnit UI mockups vs how they ended up lookin in game! I really like how they ended up, but I do want to learn how to keep some of the wonkiness and shape irregularity of the mockups in the final ones in a way that's still clean #vndev #renpy

god damn how are the composers we got for whodunnit SO GOOD

🧵a very short thread about this corpse pile i painted in reverse for Ediction #vndev

THE MACHINE THAT MADE GOD by tooth bradley (me) #blender3d #animation

It's insanely reductive to call this furry dark souls old man yaoi, but if that gets you to play this, then it's something like that. It's short, it's good, it'll ruin your evening. Please play Ediction.

Ediction's Post-Jam Update is now LIVE! ✨ Featuring new and revamped visuals, scene edits and other fixes, this is the final version of the game. Thank you for your support, we hope you like this one. 👉 PLAY HERE: donattico.itch.io/ediction #fvn #visualnovel #indiegame #furry
