I'm releasing my first PC game on Monday. 🤩 And I'm sick 🤢 Hopefully I'll recover and be able to celebrate with everyone who's excited for my ultimate Christmas game! store.steampowered.com/app/3030650/... #indiedev #indiegames #cozygames #wholesome #christmas #digitalart #november

All I wanna do is sleep today... A blanket of grass looks so comfy. #screenshotsaturday #indiegame #gamedev

Why does this feel like a monkey's paw situation?

#Gobutiko is an item shop sim where dice rolls do the haggling! 👺Be Goblin 🎲Hurl dice at people to change the price 💥Improve your haggling by equipping dice effects ⛏️Decorate your shop 🤝Meet new merchants 🪑Collect furniture/items 🗒️Wishlist: store.steampowered.com/app/1507820/... #PitchYaGame

What day is it anyway? How do any of you keep track anymore?!

Take a detour and add a little keybind menu. How long could that possibly take? I'm sure you'll knock that out in a couple hours, no biggie right?! This rabbit hole was like 2 damn weeks of my time!

For #indiegamedev, I try to cover at least 100 games each Next Fest, and if you have a demo in the event, let me know so I can check out yours.

A really nice playthrough of Fantastic Finding's demo! I really enjoyed that; even though I am really scared every time I watch people play my game! 😅 But check out Matt Plays' video, if you're curious about the demo :) #steamnextfest www.youtube.com/watch?v=LfmE...

Anybody else every have those days where you look at a super common and easy to spell word and suddenly not recognize the spelling? Brain, we've been over this before. Event is spelled Event, we do not need to look it up. It's 5 letters and not even one of those tricky words. Just do your damn job

Fantastic Findings is getting a new updated version of the Demo tonight! - Same levels, but lots more polish! ✨ Ready for Steam Next Fest starting this Monday!👈 Help my game by Wishlisting it on Steam: store.steampowered.com/app/3030650/... #gamedev #indiedev #october #cozygame #cosy #wholesome

Some icons commissioned by @bardelicious.bsky.social - Commissions open!! - #pixelart #gamedev #indiegame

I am looking for recommendations of Streamers and Youtubers who cover Steam Next fest! I've found a lot on YouTuber, less on Twitch. Do you folks have any recommendations? - I'd like to contact as many as I can to show off my game. #gamedev #indiedev #twitch #youtube #streaming #gaming #Steam

I forgot to put a cap on the customer spawn rate and ended up with a retail apocalypse 😂

Been a while #screenshotsaturday! Here's a new feature I've been working on for "officially" claiming land for your shop. It isn't a hard restriction, but instead an incentive to keep your shop in a specific area by granting bonuses to your shop's popularity and item values! #gamedev #indiegame

Keeping up with Goblin Logs! Here's Log #2, where I break down what Concept Cores are and how they can change the flow of haggling 🎲 If nothing else, writing this helped me think of a few more improvements I can still make to the system. 🛠️ #indiegame #gamedev #Gobutiko

🎲New Dice Effect: Stop Loss📉 A dice effect that triggers when the current price would result in a loss of +20% to let you close out the deal at a 15% loss instead. The idea came to me after my opponent rolled a 6 three times in a row and I got pissy about it. 😂 #gamedev #indiegame #Gobutiko

Pocket goblins, why was this not already a thing? 🤯

Me too, buddy... Me too.

Why do I feel so seen right now? 😂

The answer is maybe, always maybe. Hedge your bets on maybe. Sometimes possibly or even eventually, but usually maybe. 👍

Yup, I forgot to post this! Gobutiko is featured in the Game Devs of Color Expo 2025 @gdocexpo.com The Steam showcase is live! You can watch the GDoCExpo Direct at 1pm PT / 4pm ET / 8pm UTC. 🎉Support your indies🎉 🔗 Direct: www.youtube.com/watch?v=MdR1... #Indiegame #GameDevsofColor

Introducing: Goblin Logs - like dev logs, but for goblins!👍 Ok, but really these are more about going over a specific mechanic in details that I wouldn't want to use for an in-game tutorial. This first one will arguably be the most important, haggling mechanics!🎲 #gamedev #indiegame #Gobutiko

Goofed up on the AI and left the Tavern Keeper wandering the map. Calling her over to the shop register was apparently too much effort for her and she gave up half way through lol. "Screw it, just yell your order from across the river!"😂

So while setting up the shops, I thought it would be nice if you could see at a glance what that shop's "Featured Merch" was without having to go through menus. These displays will update daily to show any high demand items the shop has! #screenshotsaturday #indiegame #gamedev #Gobutiko

I got so distracted ranting about that mega Raichu design, I almost forgot to post this. 🎲Gobutiko will be in the Cozy Job Simulators event on Steam! Is beating your customers with dice to siphon more cash cozy? Probably! 🎉Tomorrow, September 13, 2025 @ 1:00PM ET🎲 #gamedev #indiegame #CozySimFest

Forgive me my rant, but as a starving Raichu fan who hasn't eaten in a while I have thoughts! You forget my boy exists so the yellow mascot can mascot, but when you finally remember to give Raichu a spotlight it still getting the pikachu treatment! 🧵

I had a dream last night about a platform fighter where the goal was to collect the most fish while constantly having a tug of war battle with your opponents fishing line. Quickly, somebody go prototype this so it doesn't distract me!😭

We are excited to share that the official Spiritstead trailer is finally live! www.youtube.com/watch?v=54ql... Special thanks to Marybelle Sagard for the beautiful voiceover!

🍄I was sketching to make a pixel art of my oc Amani, but it was getting too cool for me not to finish it lol. So here is a drawing of her🫴 #pixelart #art #ドット絵 #indiedev #ilustration #oc

Bringing this must-watch to you guys. Ergo Proxy mentioned! I've taken inspiration in @phon.bsky.social 's art, that always caught my attention in my tl, blending their color pallete to my character style, so if you like this be sure to check his own work too, it's amazing! #art #pixelart #ドット絵

Just finished a Brand New Gameplay Trailer for my game!! Check it out! 🙌 youtu.be/rHoBFBoluOY 🔥🚒🎅 #gamedev #indiedev #indiegames #Cozygames #Wholesome #gaming #indie #games #cozy #3D

Been a while since I tested haggling with the animations turned off... Between the speed and all the effects going off this is damn near indecipherable 😂

Here's the first iteration on the UI for Customer Effects. I figure having it only show names first with a prompt to view details is a good way to save on space. Though they won't usually a full set of 3 equipped. #gamedev #indiegame #godot

Back on the UI work wagon... Adding information to a screen while trying avoid clutter is a special kind of hell 😌

Vgen Commission for @nikkihurray.bsky.social Thank you Nikki for keeping to commission these cute fellas, I love doing them. #VgenComm #pixelart #art I'm calling this one eggplantpus

I had this piece laying around waiting to be fully animated since my instagram days. This gave me more work than I had antecipated, so Rt are welcome 🥹 Btw, how is this game called from where you're from? Here we call it 'Resta 1' #art #pixelart #ドット絵 #indiedev #pokemon #boardgame

I've just announced sign-ups for a new series on my channel: The Debut Devs Showcase. Open to students, hobbyists,and first-time developers with a completed project or prototype they would like to get feedback on. forms.gle/WXDi2tqD7xRd... #indiegamedev

I've needed to make this tool for a while, but kept putting it off. It's a tool for quickly adding/editing translation keys/text without needing to go mess with my CSV file directly. I can even preview how they'll appear in a RichtextLabel! It's ugly, but it works! 🎉 #godot #gamedev #indiegame

Cooking up some broken builds, today's meal🔥: * Rolled 1s explode to heal 10 composure * Rolled 1s trigger an additional roll * Triggering PIP bonuses moves the price 5% in your favor, while healing your opponent's composure by 5 Watching these go off is immensely satisfying to me 🫠 | #gamedev

My A/C is dead. It is now a race to see who overheats first, me or my desktop. 🫠

tileset end items I created for Gobutiko's fishing and blacksmith shop.💗 Trade and build your own goblin business in Gobutiko. Game now available for wishlisting.👻 @gobutiko.com #art #pixelart #artist #pixelartist #gamedev #indiedev #guild #rpg #tileset #scenario #tavern #background

I decided to speed up the shop building a bit. As much as I enjoyed watching this goober throw every item by hand, it was starting to add up a bit! So now we're taking on a blue printing approach and just commit to the build once we're done drawing. #gamedev #indiegame #godot

A brand NEW demo for my Chao Garden #indiegame called Bobo Bay is out on #Steam RIGHT NOW

🎲Gobutiko🎲 is going to be in the #DebutFestival, running from August 7th to the 11th! Woohoo! While it won't be playable just yet, give the game a wishlist and follow to get notified when the next play test starts! 🖇️https://store.steampowered.com/app/1507820/Gobutiko/ #indiegame #gamedev #gaming

Get ready for #Screenshotsaturday It's a 3D Hidden Object game with 1000+ items to find! 😅 The Game: store.steampowered.com/app/3030650/... #gamedev #gaming #wholesome #happy #fun #Cozy #Cozygames

Got a working mix of both newly spawned customers and pulling from whoever is on screen! They seem so excited about a goblin casually dropping a giant cash register in the middle of town to sell them stuff 😂 #gamedev #indiegame #godot

Refining a few more systems with the shop, this time making sure customers spawn off camera but never too far away so you're not constantly waiting on them. There's also a fail-safe to just spawn em at the register if they can't find a good path. #gamedev #indiegame #godot

While decorating, I kept getting frustrated thinking that I just wanted to swap to one of the objects already on screen instead of going through the menu again. So I added a Copy function! #gamedev #indiegame #godot

It is not a proper Christmas game, without a Christmas market. (Work in Progress) #Gamedev #dkgame #indiegame #cozygame #wholesome If it looks cozy, wishlist it here: store.steampowered.com/app/3030650/...
