Predators are everywhere and thrive on secrecy and isolation. If you're getting weird vibes from someone in the industry, reach out to someone you trust and get a sense check. Your fellow devs and games workers are allies, not competition!

lmao finally someone is making a game "inspired by the joy of people watching" - prototype went super viral on itch (100k players, 1k reviews) - interact with things and make cute stuff happen - see how tiny guys react - hidden object game, full version coming to Steam - Nippets

congratulations to the lovely @ayealreet.bsky.social on the announcement of Nippets!!! You wishlist, now: store.steampowered.com/app/4151830/...

reasons: 1. "indie" means different things to different people and is often primarily in use as a marketing term 2. there many types of "publisher" and publisher-indie relationship 3. team size and money are fluid concepts that can change radically for a single studio/game in surprisingly short time

This 2026 indie is a tasty, roguelite riff on the usual cozy-game formula

'Orbitals' Brings Awesome-Looking Asymmetrical Co-Op Anime Antics To Switch 2 Next Year.

Hi! Game expert here, this is not funny. The video game industry only releases ports of a game through 4 console generations when its in distress

my annual faves: game - séance of blake manor album - purity ring (eponymous) book - patriarchy of the wage, federici film - nosferatu excluding the stuff I worked on!

Juzo Itami’s “Tampopo” was released 40 years ago, and though it wasn’t a hit at the time, it has gained a cult following in the years since. We look at how it changed food and film. 🧵

Lovely little weekend 🌝

last month I went on holiday for two weeks and didn't check a single work message the entire time. Being strict with my work/life balance has made a huge difference in my mood day-to-day - I'm better at work and at home! 💚

HOT TAKE: Sometimes, I feel like the people saying this mean why isn't anyone with lots of power covering my game. When smaller folks ARE covering indie games and you're not uplifting them. You just want others to lift you up without giving back to the community.

happy to say that I'll be at the Paris concert on the 29th!! I've been obsessed with this soundtrack for a full calendar year and I'm STOKED to hear the music live 🤩

videogames can be "bad software". they don't have to be humanist; maximally legible and transparent. they can be ornate and obscure. they can be "hard to read" (mechanically)! we could really learn more from the era where "bad software" was mainstream. the kusoge & its kin have things to teach us

marketing folks realizing october is next week

imagine calling homophobes 'homo-critical' or racists 'race-critical' - trans people deserve to live safe, healthy lives with the same rights as everybody else and any argument against that is just plain discrimination.
