#ForgiveMyProgrammerPlaceholderArt 🥺🙏 Here's a little 🔊 listen to what I've been working on this week. #projectdatamind #screenshotsaturday #solodev #indiedev #indiehorror #UE5

@1e0y0e0s.bsky.social Thank you for making my year more moody 📀

If you want to see the deep cuts from your own steam library, you can use this page on steamDB and filter it to your steam owned games. steamdb.info/stats/gamera... Then just sort by number of reviews to find the games with the lowest review counts! #indieswith<100

Here are 3 games I've played with less than 100 reviews on steam! QRP with yours #indieswith<100 - Block Shop (automation puzzle game) - Game Time Glizzy's (restaurant job sim) - They See Us (crewlike IOOD-like hybrid)

Here are 3 games I've played with less than 100 reviews on steam! QRP with yours #indieswith<100 - The Overseer (IOOD-like) - No Signal (point & click hard sci-fi adventure) - Planet Scanner (horror job simulator)

Getting close to Halloween again so check out this series of screenshots that tell a story about a really scary screensaver program.

A former colleague released a demo for his 3D puzzle game made in UE! It's such a chill/calm experience. Right now the outlook is bleak (6 player peak on the demo), but I hope that changes cause it's _gorgeous_ and so satisfying. store.steampowered.com/app/3897520/Pazleum/ 🙏 #indiedev #indiegamedev

No screenshot saturday for me this weekend. I'm laboring in the art mines on an <i>awesome</i> commission with a hard deadline this week. I'll cook up a fun project peek for you (I already know what I wanna share) for next weekend!

It's not Saturday, but I'm trying. Here's a little "beauty lighting" I've been experimenting with on the terminal. A nice little bloom there giving it a bit of nostalgic glow. Btw, this is the first screenshot since I switched to Forward+! #screenshotsaturday #solodev #UE5 #projectdatamind

@eternalskiestcg.bsky.social Just want to thank you for all the work you put in on making great feeds. I look at your feeds more than anything else on Bluesky!

This week I made a time manager! It's cool for coding reasons, but it also inspired me to add some details to the input decks. The screens, bars, & locks will all animate in conjunction with the larger system! These decks are inspired by AV equipment racks! #solodev #indiedev #UE5 #projectdatamind

There's not much to see in project data mind yet, but the starbox is one thing worth sharing. (However, everything you see is subject to change!) Consider this my first (and belated) #screenshotsaturday #solodev #indiedev #UE5 #projectdatamind

What I've learned today is that I've failed one of the best colors: warm green. I'm really looking forward to experimenting in that range. Template linked in the replies! #the_color_wheel

This visual roadmap that @pebloop.dev made has been on my mind for the past two days. It's a great tool for sharing with the public, but doubles as an accountability tool. Do any of you other solo devs out there have roadmaps like this that you share publicly?

This this this!! Game making is the yes where novel writing was the thing I thought I wanted.

Between Bluesky, Twitch, & certain communities on Discord, it feels to me like a golden age for indie game devs. Like the old days of ConceptArt dot org. There are tons of awesome creative individuals working hard & supporting each other. I expect to see clusters of these devs finding success.

Develop some new fears. Heartworm launches July 31.

This is where I am. New book in the making. Thousand words a day if I can. They don’t have to be good words.

Patreon has never been profitable and its enormous debt to investors is being paid for more and more by its creators. We are building an investor-free alternative with a small team and have had a 100% no-dropped payments record for our entire Alpha, a better record than Patreon during the same time!

hello nohello.net/en/

@dasmirts.bsky.social I *loved* Mundaun! What an absolute treat to get a follow from you! Are you cooking up anything these days?

🧠

SIGNALIS: MEMORIES (Side B) is OUT NOW!

People building games / streaming their process on Twitch are so cool. Like, heck yes I will sit with you for hundreds of hours and barely comprehend your logic. Yes, I will shout your game's name from the rooftops.

I've watched excitedly as @irregularhooman.bsky.social has been cooking this game up on Twitch. Let's go! Send the game some love and wishlists!

Welp I just discovered the hashtag #WhatAGameDevLooksLike and I can't help but follow everybody. Despite all the bad in our industry, you folks are the good that make me want to stay. ❤️

😊😊I'm super honored to have been accepted to join the Indie Game Dev stream team on Twitch! If you're interested in meeting some of the talented streamers I can now call TEAMMATES 😎 check out our starter pack! go.bsky.app/AW8DjxC

I'm not sure what would be my personal goty for 2024, but if I could pick, myhouse.wad would get goty 2023.

Show me four games that influenced YOUR current game project. Here's mine! #gamedev #indiedev #indiegamedev #solodev

QRP with your skull art. Closeup of my Death card for the Chromatic Fates Tarot (a project organized by @perstephane.bsky.social) from 2021. Made with Clip Studio Paint.

The Silent Hill 2 remake was a big deal for me. I was so excited, I did the bulk of this fanart in the days before it released. I just finished up the hand lettering today and wanted to share! (Do we use tags on this site?? #silenthill2 #fanart)

@sirocco-art.bsky.social saw your IG post to say hi, so I had to come over here and wave 👋👋👋 how are you liking bluesky so far?

I created a starter pack!! As some of you know, I art direct Tarot decks. I've worked with some mind blowingly awesome people. This is an in-progress list. The Color Tarot Project (a loosely shifting art collective) is working on their third Tarot deck! go.bsky.app/HrS3kPM

Informal poll for my game devs! 📊👂 Do you think devlogs are worth the effort they are to make? - Yes 👍 - No 👎 - Undecided 🤷 Feel free to answer with 1 word or emoji!

Okay I'm getting myself going with two glorious starter packs. First one? Women* in horror 😍 go.bsky.app/VKsNwK2

Hello world? o7 It's uncanny to be here. I'm curious how the organic conversations are here? Tell me: how welcoming has bsky been for you so far? Anything you recommend?
