Is this the Kitten Space Agency equivalent of the Kraken in KSP? @deanhall.bsky.social @ahwoo-official.bsky.social

Some screenshots of the new rocket plumes in Kitten Space Agency. I think we are the first/only to do volumetric plumes in this way. download free ksa.ahwoo.com

Artemis II's real-time orbit in @ahwoo-official.bsky.social @deanhall.bsky.social's Kitten Space Agency

If anyone is running a space company or org. Just a reminder kitten space agency is free, and you can use it for graphical rendering of your mission/launches

Artemis 2 launch was incredible. Just wow!

I arrived four years late to @deanhall.bsky.social's Icarus, and I'm so glad I found it. This is my perfect survival sim. kotaku.com/icarus-survi...

Not photos. Screenshot from Kitten Space Agency and our volumetric + Instanced mesh planetary rings for saturn.

Gimballed Vernier and turbine exhaust nozzles added by the incredible Gravhoek into Kitten Space Agency.

We added a native Linux deployment for Kitten Space Agency, which is free. Linux users have responded with thousands of dollars of contributions, including one of USD 1000. I think this will be the new way to make games like this. Unheard of lifetime customer values for us.

Latest version of Kitten Space Agency just deployed with new shadow system, fully working with ground clutter. Download for free at ksa.ahwoo.com

The death of the middle of the market in PC gaming has now spread to the highest tier of success. The situation is now irreversible. We will see consolidation of the middle with only small islands of success. This is new territory for video games, where the mid-market was the nursery for AAA success

I am 44 years old. I have accepted with grace that I will never spell separately right the first time.

User on r/kittenspaceagency posted this comparison of the actual Apollo Landing site matched in Kitten Space Agency. Wider shot is ingame, inset is the apollo photo. Best thing, you can try the pre-alpha now for free, ksa.ahwoo.com (credit: u/u/Longjumping-Box-8145)

Over the steam winter sale, ICARUS sold just under a million new base game units during the sale (984k). We also did quarter of a million DLC units (243k).

Kitten Space Agency just crossed the USD 100K mark, including quite a few subscriptions! Cya later steam!

We just pushed new version of Kitten Space Agency (its free) running on .net 10. I believe first game in the world to do so. Only possible because of BRUTAL. You're only as indie as the tools you use. Unreal + Unity and their licensing & tech are a blight on the industry ksa.ahwoo.com

New from me! Talked to @deanhall.bsky.social about Brutal, coding with LLM assistance, and why open source frameworks could be the future of game dev. Maybe the best chat I've had about what genAI can do for game development (caveat: my other worries about the technology still stand).

Vulkan is really the “Karen” of programming. It’s like “You said you were going to do this in subpass 0 but you did it in subpass 1. I’ve rendered the frame but I’m going to crash out and I want to speak to the manager.”

Unity and unreal are the past. Here’s another shot of a dust storm on mars in Kitten Space Agency. Coming free powered by contributions.

Second angle. Dust storm on Mars, in Kitten Space Agency. No unreal. No unity. BRUTAL framework. Volumetric with atmos scattering including atmospheric layers such as ozone etc. full solar system scale.

my average chatgpt experience summed up in a single screenshot

Added the new extra solar object 3I/ATLAS to Kitten Space Agency. Trying to get a burn to intercept. I think I need a real rocket scientist 😂

Fun fact. Smartphones were invented so people had something to do in lifts.

My votes saved Iceland!! They aren’t last! I loved their performance

Uuuuuooooaaaawwwooohhhh 🇮🇸🇮🇸🇮🇸 go Iceland!

EUROVISION 2025 HAS STARTED!

If any media want the raw emails from unity and our invoices, email me at [email protected]. I can’t post them unredacted here as they contain the names of employees of another company. But once you see the names, it becomes obvious how easy it is to google search

Unity is currently threatening Rocketwerkz, the studio developing Kitten Space Agency. You can check out the details surrounding this in @deanhall.bsky.social's post on reddit: www.reddit.com/r/gamedev/co...

Posted by @deanhall.bsky.social on reddit, anyone using #Unity needs to take a serious look at what is going on. This is a direct threat to hundreds (thousands?) of studios and tens of thousands of indie developers with games built on Unity. www.reddit.com/r/gamedev/co...

This is not a drill! This is a spacecraft... Over on another social network, @deanhall.bsky.social posted this current progress screenshot of KSA.

Just helped my parents try and activate Office and got stuck in captcha “help us beat the robots” hell for THREE HOURS. The plot of Dune doesn’t seem so far fetched now

“I know I used to be crazy, I know I used to be fun, you say I used to be wild, I say I used to be young”….. Miley Cyrus “used to be young” hits pretty hard

This is me after releasing a game and trying to figure out just how newly fucked our market has become as customer expectations, discoverability, tear up everything https://youtu.be/AiqWrD17cC4?si=kWtAhVDp3DVVw_5b

When something embarrassing happens. Just imagine you are on your countries version of Air Force one. You are talking with the prime minister, your head of state. You gesture wildly and break a glass from your tray. The prime minister insists on picking up the pieces. This happened. I did this

As a society I feel we have completely lost perspective on the value of a byte, especially when used in the context of bitwise operations.

I kind of like BlueSky. It’s really fast at least. UI is clean. And my feed is full of people I’m interested in

When using crowdfunding for your try to avoid giving away steam keys. Their reviews will not count to the aggregate, and show as "free product". These are your key supporters. If explained well, your super fans will understand. These are the most mobilizable, many will buy the game again to support

If you are launching your game on steam, please don't give away keys to your biggest supporters. On your launch day, have a roster of at least ten people read to buy and review the game immediately. Cosmoteer did this brilliantly, but i'm still seeing many give away keys to their biggest supporters
