@b1is.bsky.social and I are so happy and thankful that our game got selected as winner of the Floodlight Game Jam 🎊 We feel really honored being picked among such a strong competition and enjoyed developing a game based on a real-world story a lot. #indiedev #gamedev #gamejam #indiegame

The Floodlight Game Jam submission is over. It was really nice to get immersed into the stories of investigative journalists. @b1is.bsky.social and I learned a lot, about game development but also about the world. #indiedev #gamedev #journalism #gamejam #games

We’re in the middle of the floodlight game jam, where we work with investigative journalists to make games that explain important yet complicated matters. One more week to go! www.floodlightproject.org/floodlight-g... #indiegame #gamedev #indiedev

Our journey to get to our Steam Capsule (main graphic) for the Steam Page from the first drafts to working with a 2D artist. Thanks @dirn.bsky.social for making the capsule, it was a lot of fun to work with you!! ☺️ #indiedev #gamedev #gameart #games #steam #indiegame

ATUEL is out NOW on Steam & Google Play for free! 🙌✨ 🌄 Explore dreamlike landscapes 🦊 Shapeshift into different animals 📻 Listen to real testimonies Atuel is an award-winning surrealist documentary game about the climate crisis. Help us out with a RT! 🙏 store.steampowered.com/app/2794330/...

Our Steam Page just went live!!😱🎊 Next goal: Get to a working demo for you to test. Wishlist to get notified when our demo is there ☺️🎮 #indiedev #majorupdate #gamedev #steamgames #unity #indiegame #steam #gamedev #solarpunk #greengames #puzzlegame #adventuregame

We gathered all your votes from Bluesky, Mastodon, TikTok, Loops and Discord and the name most of you resonated with most was... "Where the Ghosts Are Damp". So that's going to be the name of our game. Thanks to everyone who helped us find it! ☺️💦👻 #indiedev #gamedev #devlog

We just shared our #Steam Page for review - we're waiting now to get green light - keeping our fingers crossed that we got all those assets in the right place. I was really surprised to see how many more graphics are needed compared to itch.io #indiedev #devlog #gamedev #gameart

We're making screenshots for our Steam Page which we will (hopefully) launch next week 😱 In this level, you save canned beans from a storm at night - or , well, you try your best 🍃 #screenshotsaturday #indiedev #gamedev #devlog

"Is it stealing to take back what was stolen?" Check out gameplay from Relooted, coming soon to Xbox Series X/S. #IGNLive #IGNSummerOfGaming

@b1is.bsky.social and I have found a name for our studio!! May I present: Green Wave Games. And for everyone who gets the reference: Yes, I love surfing 🏄☀️ #indiegamedev #gamedev #devlog

Just released my first Unity asset: a tool that turns text into mumbling voices like in Animal Crossing or Undertale. If anyone wants a free copy, hit me up. Would love feedback! assetstore.unity.com/packages/too... #gamedev #indiedev #unity #voicetools

Our game is a surreal puzzle adventure where you volunteer in a disaster-struck valley —only to find that rebuilding is far more complicated than it seems. What name should we choose? 🤔 #indiedev #games #puzzle #adventure #indiegames #gamedev

Behold! A little reveal! Been having BIG fun learning Unity! I bought the 7-day challenge from Game Dev Unlocked, and while I'm deviating lots and will definitely be taking more than 7 days to complete it, I'm learning tons through making my 1st game. More info below xx #indiegame #gamedev #unity

We swapped the Easter eggs for… an Easter pumpkin! It’s convienently egg-shaped and vegan. (Even though in the last playtest, people thought it was a mango, so maybe it’s an Easter Mango.) Anyway, happy #Easter! #screenshotsaturday #indiegamedev #indiedev #gamedev

Added some effects to level signs to make them pop a bit more— trying to give player a little VFX-dopamine. Any suggestions? #indiedev #unity #gamedev #indiegame

In 4 days, the Day Zero Games: #Solarpunk Jam starts on @itch.io. There you can imagine a DIY, countercultural approach to #sustainability. Who's in? #indiegamedev #gamejam #gamedev itch.io/jam/day-zero...

Having fun with our #terrain tile assets today, recoloring them to fit our color palette. Next step: Hand-painting the ground in #unity. #indiegamedev #photoshop #gamedev

We made a game for the #PULSGameJam! It was really exiciting to make a 3D web game in #godot for the first time and model the characters in #blender. You can play it here: tonyloon.itch.io/break-what-b... #IndieGameDev #hope #gamedev #GameJam

How to find meaning in a world of ruin? How do we express our grief for the #environment destroyed without loosing hope for our future? Storytelling in the #Climate Crisis is one of the aspects that will be discussed within the #Green Game Design Project by @igda.org. #indiegamedev #gamedev

If you see this, quote with a game you've replayed multiple times! I have played a lot of Tomb Rider on my NGage but I guess Zelda - Oracle of Seasons wins for me Tag a friend (or someone you wish you were friends ;) ) @b1is.bsky.social

⭐ Big news everyone! ⭐ 👉 store.steampowered.com/app/3430280/... Seaward has a Steam page! 🎉 Be sure to wishlist ☑️ 🗺️ cozy exploration, no timers ⛵ ship building 🤸 fun characters 🌱 renewable energies

Want to try out some #indiedev #games this weekend? In this collection: * story of a sentient AI (Ariadne) * AI-themed version of "Papers Please" (Systemkontrolle) * interactive poem (Matsutake) * hike with an #AI bot (Hike*O) * hitchhikers guide like #rpg (sustAIn) itch.io/jam/bpbgame-...

Had a great time at the @bpb.de #gamejam last weekend. In our #vr game, you wake up in your room in a world shaped by AI. A system error makes it possible for you to travel back in time to change policies. What would you change? #godot #godotengine #indiedev #gamedev itch.io/jam/bpbgame-...

We are developing a meditative narrative #VR experience for the #globalgamejam. Three more hours to go! globalgamejam.org/games/2025/b... #globalgamejam2025 #ggj25 #ggj2025 #indiedev

Just found these games from the #regenerate game jam which put organic, regenerative and indigenous farming knowledge center stage. I loved the "Garden of Ora" game for the artstyle: regenerate-game-jam.itch.io #gamejam #indiedev

Started examples for the lib. More flashy so I thought it could be interesting. With the library none of those effects requires coding to setup and can easily be combined. Especially with other effects ^^ #godot #gamedev #indiedev #indiegamdev #vfx #effects #flash

Working on a style for our game. I learned a lot about textures and materials, lighting in #unity and shaders this week :) I made the tent, the pumkins and the fireplace (without the fire) myself in #blender. #indiedev #gamedevelopment

The only way to stop the cats from their shenanigans is to activate the lantern! Should it be a bell instead? #indiegame #gamedev #indiedevv #unity

I made a starter pack on #sustainability in #games. Let me know if I missed someone :) #indiedev #environment #ecology #gamedev

Beginning of this year I was taking part in my very first game jam. In May, we had finished our 2D RPG-like narrative game and now I’m working on a 3D game with @b1is.bsky.social . What a year, I’m excited about the next! What was your #gamedev journey like this year? #indiedev #newyear

At an amazing online event about #sustainability in games a game dev student showed his game about an activist camp near Berlin. I think it’s interesting how that way, the lines between #gamedev and #journalism begin to blur. Play the game for free: yxee.itch.io/wasserwald #solarpunk #indiedev

Our question of the week: How do we make our #hopepunk themed story go together with our over-the-top #cute artwork? How can we convey serious topics in a way that is wholesome? #indiedev #wholesomegames #indiegames

We are working on a new input system! @b1is.bsky.social and I discussed if we should go for ragdoll or reliable controller. I immediately felt sick when playing a ragdoll game (Fall Guys on Switch). We decided to implement the reliable controller ^^' #indiedev #gamedev #indiegame

Your indie game should be on that list? Just add it :)

Testing wind interaction: * Pushes fruit. * Pushes the character if they are stationary. * Makes it difficult to walk against the wind. * Increases speed when walking with the wind. Am I missing anything? #gamedev #indiegame #indiegamedev #unity

Looking for a free #solarpunk game to get some inspiration? I really liked playing this game which is an ecological #art project from Slovenia. It's not only about tech but about society as well. Check it out here: solandium.com #indiedev #gamedev #sustainability #playingfortheplanet #impactgames

As long as we have empathy with sad bananas, there is still #hope I guess. What does it say about us when we label imperfect produce as "sad" though? And hopefully, the lessons we learn about #empathy aren’t confined to marketing alone. Full article: www.bath.ac.uk/announcement... #indiedev #blender

Using GOAP for this was overkill, but it was a lot of fun to implement! #indiegame #indiedev #gaming #gamedev #unity

Monument Valley 3 was designed to (maybe) improve the world

Studying engineering, I worked on small machines with Autodesk, now I'm learning the fundamentals of Blender with the courses of @cgcookie.bsky.social. The workflow is similar but different. #indiedev #blender #gamedev #opensource

In „A good company“, every person is written to be genderless. However, some inferred gender while playing the game. As an experiment, can play it for free and ask yourself (and tell us if you like) to who you assign which gender and why ;) #ThrowbackThursday #amaze2024 #indiedev #gamedev

Based on player feedback, we’ve changed how coins are collected. Instead of requiring a click, coins are now gathered automatically. However, clicking before they’re collected grants a bonus. It makes the game more approachable but increases ceiling for the best players. Is it smart? #gamedev

Hi #GameDev and #GameJam folks! This is a Game Jam I feel incredibly passionate about and would love to have as many people participate as possible! It starts in Feb, so plenty of time to prepare! Even if you can't join, REBOOSTs mean a ton to me! itch.io/jam/games-fo...

So many new followers! Hello to you, happy to have you!! :) What's going on here? @b1is.bsky.social and I are developing a game where your region has been struck by a flood. Shocked and angry, you volunteer to deliver fruit and vegetables to those in need. #gamedev #indiegame #sustainability #eco

here's some friends to give you a (speed) boost for this week💙

Media like games can make room for better understanding of trans and nonbinary folks. Or, they can perpetuate harmful stereotypes, even without intent, like described here: www.youtube.com/watch?v=_3FW... What are your techniques for making your games inclusive? #TDoR #gamedev #indiedev

This time, we opted for hand-written notes on sustainable paper instead of stickers for the events we attend (we don’t expect loads of people, so that’s still relatively easy to do). How are you making your marketing more #sustainable? #gamedev #indiedev #gg24
