I'm so happy to see that shitty highschool punkrock is still very much alive in France. Went to a concert with a couple of young bucks. They only had 3 songs, and managed to do an encore by just replaying 2 of them haha

Nobody wants to be the guy who moshes by themselves, but we all need them.

Tiny cursed game design problem thread for our silly wizard deckbuilder Bibidi Bibidi! So from the get-go, we decided against an energy/mana system to minimize mental load. Each card has 3 effects, and figuring out the most optimal combination in each situation is tough. 1/10

We just pushed the Eventful Update to the Bibidi Bibidi! playtest. This update adds non-combat encounters to the mix, like this run-in with a generous Goat Man. #deckbuilder #roguelike #bibidi #screenshotsaturday

The Children of Coyote Woman is a masterpiece. Apart from being a beautifully bittersweet song, it retells the story of Romulus and Remulus in a Southern Americana package that could honestly be a novel I would read the heck out of

When you level up in RPGs and you get all your health/cooldowns back, it always makes me think devs couldn't be bothered with recalculating new max resources vs used current resources. With the added benefit of making leveling up feel extra good to players #gamedev

I wonder if this sparks any ancient memories for people here

Can't believe Spelling Bee doesn't allow Pavlovian.

Today in #gamedevquestions... Should creatures made entirely out of fire, be immune to poison??

Aside from playing with friends, what are people's favourite ways to prototype/playtest physical board and card games? I've been sitting on a pretty fun prototype for a long time now and need ideas of what to do with it! #ttrpg #boardgames #cardgames #indiegame

If you aren't seeing skeets from some of your fave people, they might have been labeled "Rude" by bsky mods. Idk what they are thinking, I don't need a mommy to tell me who to be buddies with. Anyway, go into Settings > moderation > bluesky moderation (advanced) and turn Rude off.

Oof, making sure that dynamic {text} for a {card} game is localizable {verb}.... really {adjective}

Would you be an observer or would you be a hero?

I really liked Pulse's depiction of ghosts. The whole thing feels eerily prescient.

Unknowable

Built a new PC, installed Windows 11, and immediately regretted it. What a shitshow

I've been listening to so many Brian Lee Mulligan campaigns at the same time that I can't keep anything straight anymore. This man poops out settings like it's breakfast

We're hard at work on non-combat encounters for Bibidi Bibidi! Here you can see a preview of the Iron Maiden event for #screenshotsaturday #deckbuilder #roguelike #bibidi #indiedev #indiegame #gamedev 1/2

Communication tip: don't just say "we need to talk/we have something to discuss". Say "we need to talk about planning that vacation", because otherwise anxious people will shit their pants OK

Thinking back about the time we'd write complex mathrock-type stuff accidentally with our shitty punk band, just because we'd compose songs using disparate riffs and segments instead of rhythm/beats and we didn't know any music theory.

I ran a social media choose-your-own-adventure type thing using polls a few years back. I really enjoyed freewriting a tweet-sized paragraph every day and see what people would choose. If nobody voted, the hero would die of indecision. Might give it another go.

When we all get put in an old people home, instead of Bridge we'd be sitting around the table playing Balatro individually without talking I'm already looking forward to it

By complete accident (typo) I stumbled upon Bitcherton, and not only was I immediately determined to start listening to it solely on the name, it also has some of my favourite improv people as the cast!

If you've ever been to a stoner or heavy psych concert, you know that the band members somehow magically steal all the hair growing energy from the audience. Why do they have magnificent hair, while we all have bald spots on the top of our heads?!

Is this the longest time I've ever played just the demo of a game that's not even out yet? Yes probably. And I ain't even bored yet. Welcome back #HoMM, it's been too long.

I expected The Art of Self-Defence to be an awkward absurdist comedy with a few good laughs, and it most certainly was, but I didn't expect it to have some actual commentary on the cyclical nature of toxic masculinity

Another reason is immersion. We want to give you the feeling you're exploring a dungeon, and you're able to get lost. Having a whole map of the dungeon and seeing where you're at feels antithetical to that dungeon-crawling theme. 7/9

It's quite puzzly and at the end of an encounter, your brain can get quite overloaded. We think jumping into a map with so many macro choices right away won't give you the rest that you need to prepare for the next encounter. So it's a pacing thing really... 6/9
