1 week left for the PLAYTEST of my creative builder game 'Cozy Marbles' 😊 Enter the playtest on steam: store.steampowered.com/app/2836460/... #indiegames #gamedev #madewithunity

friday soapbox: as a designer, if you want something to be a skillful action for players, and you want growth in this skill to be very deep/meaningful, then you need to also let players be bad at it. sometimes horrendously bad. players hate this pain, and designers often want to mitigate it away.

So what do you think "good" game design documentation looks like? Any best practices or bad experiences out there?

does final fantasy 7 feature the best jrpg squad ever?

Over the weekend I did finally make it to Alan Wake 2's musical segment and HOT DAMN was I not disappointed. It was knowledge of this segment's existence that prompted me to play Alan Wake & Alan Wake 2 in the first place! It was so worth it for this.

Happy Halloween! It's been raining on and off all week, which nearly reduced our punkins to mush 🎃🎃🎃

If you see this QTP with the game you're currently playing.

Motivational punch card i just made myself for drafting my novel

Systems design: you have two cows. one of the cows dies; it drops 25 xp, 2x leather, 1x meat. Narrative design: you have two cows. one of the cows dies; the other cow uses a salience-based storylet system to react with an appropriate bark ("moooo") 3c design: you have two cows. they can airdash

Be safe out there this Halloween 🎃

Yes Mom

I saw some folks thinking that voice acting in games was objectively good, always a positive. "What kind of game doesn't have voice acting in 2025?!" sorta thing I say that there are positive reasons why one would choose NOT to have VO. How many design justifications we can come up with? Join me

Huge if true 😉
