Oh wow, I hadn't even seen all the apps together like this

An American entrepreneur guy once said to me smiling, and quote, "that's blue collar work. Nobody cares about blue collar." And to this day I'm just baffled by that statement. Does he live in a separate reality of only spreadsheets?

Desvelado coming to Xbox and PS5 tomorrow!

Alruna: End of History is coming to Steam. Now in widescreen! It's Alruna 2, but not a direct story sequel. 🌸

I've had this image in my head for several months now and have to get it out

Alruna and the Necro-Industrialists

Loved the level design. Finding shortcuts or "movement techs" to bypass certain sections/need for certain items early on was both confusing and fantastic. Alruna NPCs: industry is rot, heaven is spring, destiny become. The skies, the skies... Me:

Alruna: less combat, more level design!

Look, I'm just practicing posting on social media. Here's my game Let's Freeze Some Penguins, probably the highest level of professional quality I've ever hit. #puzzlegame #screenshotsaturday

Alruna and the Necro-Industrialists

Alruna, I guess, is a sidesrcoller extravaganza where you can absolutely get stuck

Last year I worked really hard on Alruna 2 and Let's Freeze Some Penguins. This year it's time to release both games. I'm very nervous!

greatest steam update of all time, because of one unnecessary detail

Do I sound like a mad prophet when I talk about AI?

MS Paint, that's fantastic! Such a cool move!

i'm literally playing the game with npc dialogs turned off, but oh my god they're just sonic characters aren't they?

Adding to the #alruna art, here's my timelapse of the Wrath of Nature Alruna, ofc with my insane ramblings alongside lol! #alruna #metroidvania #indiedev #gamedev #fanart #commission #gameart #indiegame #speedpaint #timelapseart #timelapse

And I'm back in business, got a new rates sheet 'n everything. If you wanna commission me, send an email to [email protected]. Don't DM me on bluesky because there's a good chance I miss it. I take pay upfront or a $50 deposit for my hourly rate. That $50 is deducted from the final cost.

Sitting a stewing in frustration isn't nearly as cathartic as just designing a poster. Let's see how often I remember that in 2026.

Happy Holidays!!!

read soulsov!!!! i'm good at art and storytelling and i want to share my fun world and its many freaks with you. at least play the free demo! gigidigi.itch.io/soulsov

My favorite part about this joke is that an actual artist had to go out of their way to draw this. They didn't take the easy way out and actually use an AI generated image, they had an actual artist make a parody of AI art. And the joke is way better because of it.

Today's a good day to see Kermit the Frog blow out a candle.

Not a holiday piece, but could be, Linus Åkesson's version of Ravel's Boléro for mostly Commodore 64-derived instruments, with a floppy drive, NES, and Amiga thrown in. As always, an explosive combination of technical and musical skill, and understatedness. #c64 www.youtube.com/watch?v=kMGb...

"A Greener Path" 12x16 inches, oils on copper panel. A painting about taking your time to notice the small things, staying calm, and remembering that progress takes patience. 🌼⁠

I've been playing this on the switch these days. The level design is quite good, but more than anything, the bosses are incredibly impressive in how they are executed. This game frequently has character moments happening during boss fights, and bosses that truly use the sidesrcolling format.

Cheap. Buy, please. 🙏 store.steampowered.com/app/393520/I...

It's a Demo Day, starting @ 10PM CST! Featuring: FUNKYHEART by @juiccedev.bsky.social @dreamedaway.com by Nicolas Petton Alruna: End of History by @hallinniklas.bsky.social @spellsided.bsky.social by Mass Transfer Interactive Come join us to support these devs! #smallstreamer #indie

the shitty games that suck ass are some of the best experiences sequence breaks, crazy glitches, nonsensical dialogue, incredibly loud sounds... all such fun toys

Skill issue. I've never spent 7 years and 300 people on a game.

History time! The medieval period ended with the invention of the violin. Postmodernism ended with the release of Shrek.

People say AI is a magic shortcut to creativity & success. I’ll tell you the real secret and it’s voraciously reading, being interested in everything, being diligent in the pursuit of learning, paying attention to the interior lives of others & keeping a heart open to the world.

Wow, what a thing!

Commission for @hallinniklas.bsky.social I'm very honored that I got to make art of his upcoming metroidovania Alruna: End of History, and drawing this was an absolute joy! Thank you again! 💚 The game looks awesome by the way, check it out: store.steampowered.com/app/3440260/...

Barbarella is the hero we need for this exact scenario.

In this Year of Metroidvanias, I'll remember Alruna for its cool level design allowing for some good exploration and nice puzzles, pretty sure it would make for a great speedrunning time: store.steampowered.com/app/2655470/...

I don't know if I can mention 50 because my memory's not the best but: Zexion Ender Lilies and Magnolia Axiom Verge 1 and 2 Timespinner Atlyss Alruna and the Necro-Industrialists Astraea the Six Sided Oracles CODE Bunny All the Momodoras (though Reverie and Moonlit Farewell the most) Look Outside

Absolutely enjoyed drawing this YCH Commission of Alruna for @hallinniklas.bsky.social definitely check Niklas profile for the incoming Game info 😍😁 i cant wait to play it hehe!!!!🙏🏻

We’re deeply honored that HADES II is in the running for Game of the Year and more at #TheGameAwards tonight, especially since we’re in the company of such an amazing group of wildly different and beautiful games. Congratulations to all our fellow nominees — we salute you!! 🙏👏

Not if I beat you to it! :D

Yes, this is not a joke. I've actually been trying to tell this to my programmer friends before!

Cool human-made art ? In THIS economy ? Well, thank @hallinniklas.bsky.social ! He's commissioned me to make art of his up-and-coming metroidvania ! Check it out, it looks absolutely dope ! Thank you again for trusting me <3 store.steampowered.com/app/3440260/...

Lol, I've seen people set Speech Volume to 0 in Metroid Prime 4, and turn off subtitles. Turn the obnoxious side-kick into a pantomime character!

Alruna: End of History is a very unique metroidvania. There's a contrast between our protagonist and the world around him that really makes you feel what the game is aiming for. I never played the first one, but I think I should take a look at it #indiegame #indiedev

I appreciate that someone off-screen makes sure to point out that the dogs alright. 😊

I got commissioned by @hallinniklas.bsky.social to make art of the titular character in his upcoming game Alruna: End of History I'm pretty pleased with how this came out! I don't often draw stuff like this but I'd like to do it more often. #pixelart

Testing out the optimised particle system by making all enemies explode into gibs #gamedev #screenshotsaturday

could you help me make my art reach more people?? 🙏🏼😭

I feel like devs and CEOs need to accept that a consequence of using gen AI is that a lot of people won’t like it. That’s just the case as it is and the risks you take
