I still can't believe I am writing these words now. I've been dedicating so many years into the project. During #IndieQuest2026 Full Circle was officially revealed. And I've got even more news to share: Full Cirlce will be playable at this years Gamescom! #JRPG #Indiedev

HECK YEA

Since learning how to do the secret high jump in Lunistice is crucial for beating the dev times, it was finally time to give the player a bit of visual feedback when they perform either a perfect or a "good enough" high jump! That should also make the replay ghost's movement more readable. 🙂‍↕️

This article is fantastic, because the news sounds pretty positive in the headline and then gets progressively worse and worse as the article goes on lmao www.videogameschronicle.com/news/guerill...

See? Sony understands! Making games is just about increasing the volume of content! That's all that matters 🙂‍↕️ ...I'm gonna throw up a little bit 🙂‍↕️

COME AND GET IT

Alabaster Dawn Early Access is OUT NOW! store.steampowered.com/app/3110760/...

AW HELL YEA

Sounds great, I can’t wait to see you for a split second before you disappear into the distance. :’) (I had to look up my old fursona design for this one. :’D)

In actuality the reason why I included this is to have a more direct way of bullying my playerbase 🙂‍↕️

There we go! In 1.1 you get to race against... me! I wanted to add developer times to beat in a time trial mode and I thought it'd be funny if people actually had to race the developer😏 There's still some weird animation issues and I don't have a dedicated character icon yet, but it's mostly there!

this is how I handle like 99% of my game design

#TransRights

ah, well, that makes this decision easier then doesn't it

PSN is so incredibly poorly engineered that it took me 1.5 hours to: - change my deadname - buy 1 (one) video game And I still wasn't able to change my email address because going to my account security settings logs me out immediately and makes me go through the account setup process again lmao

Alright, time to brush up on my true ending% I guess 🙂‍↕️

wouldn't it be funny if I submitted Lunistice to GDQ @ gamescom 😏

Anyway I'm putting myself into Lunistice 1.1 and I won't tell you why (just yet) :3

hell yea!

If you want to check out Crystals Of Irm you have one more weekend to do so! store.steampowered.com/app/1971470/...

Hey! Again, a big thank you for all the playtest feedback that's coming my way. It's so helpful and I'm already working on some things from it! As you may have noticed, the playttest is still running and will continue until next Monday! #indiegame #videogame #crystalsofirm

Anyway! Happy Trans Day of Visibility! 🏳️‍⚧️ I'm not super visible right now, but I'm workin on it! :] Ever since I came out last year, life's been... wild, to put it lightly, but pretty much everything has been changing for the better so far. I'm so incredibly glad I finally found myself! <3

😂

lmao

I love this article so much, because it highlights a great point: Gen"AI" is so utterly devoid of intentionality that you can't even use it to engage players in a fun and meaningful way with the idea of an AI-generated world. It *has* to be crafted by humans. automaton-media.com/en/news/prag...

I can't believe people are seriously still pitching us web3 games in 2026

NEVERRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR 🥲🥲🥲

Can highly give my (very unbiased*) recommendation to sign-up for the playtest for Crystals of Irm! It's a really cozy old-school dungeon crawler-y game that's also kind of a semi-turnbased bullet hell! 😀 *actually biased af - I'm working for the publisher and have helped a little with development

Today's the day! The Crystals Of Irm playtest starts today and will run all weekend! You can still sign up for it and I’m really looking forward to your feedback 💎 store.steampowered.com/app/1971470/... #indiegame #crystalsofirm #indiedev

Here are Dave and David's full unedited comments for those interested:

It's the future! It's inevitable! Pretty soon all content will be generated by it! We're about to achieve AGI! If you aren't on the train it's gonna pass you by! variety.com/2026/digital...

These "major cuts" should only affect one type of employee and they can all be found in upper management. Shameful.

I wonder if it says something about the baseline quality of the game if no one noticed that over the last year all of its content has been "AI"-generated, hmmmmmmmmmmmm 🤔🤔🤔 Source: www.gamesindustry.biz/this-mobile-...

I'm so sick of seeing AI disclaimers like this. The solution to not having the budget for voice acting isn't to use AI, it's to not have voice acting at all! Games don't need VO to be good! By jamming in slopvoices, you're not making your game better, you're making it worse and reprehensible!

Okay I fully filled out the pokédex and the habitat dex, I'm free 🫠

As if I needed even more reasons to halt any development of my own stuff for Xbox 🙃

Hello! Just wanted to let everyone know that work on 1.1 will continue as soon as I get out of Pokopia jail! ...help me D:

Handheld Boost Mode go brrr on this 'mid' game (actually one of the most fun and well-made indie games I've ever played)

What a timeline we live in, where a 7/10 - 8/10 game is considered "disappointing" and where the stock market reacts violently to fucking Metacritic of all things.

The one good thing about DLSS5 is that no one can currently afford nvidia hardware anyway

wow cool technology, thanks nvidia

Work on my new game was a bit slow but really picked up this week, finally. Gonna be an action adventure like thing. Can be played super casually with a focus on exploring but also gives you the tools to put the whole focus on speed running instead, whatever you prefer.

In reaction to Matthias Linda's lawsuit against them about delayed physical versions of Chained Echoes, First Press Games has released a statement to GamesMarkt that they intend to keep working on said game versions. @chainedechoes.bsky.social www.gamesmarket.global/first-press-...

smacking two low-poly indie platformer protags that go through dreams or dream-like settings together like dolls #pseudoregalia #lunistice

I wonder if my game claim for Lunistice got approved. (i just got a giant notification banner on Discord and clicked it, I don't even know what it means)

Lunistice is quite a challenging platformer but not too much. It's perfect for someone like me, who played Ghostrunner, struggled there a lot, but after a while, playing a game became easier. In this game I already feel like some parts are not as crazy as before. Great job, @deke.studio

Not often that I get to talk about my dayjob, but it's been a... uh... ride helping out the developer with this situation. (and yes, my official job title doesn't make any sense anymore these days, I do all kinds of stuff now lmao)
