This morning I made a couple of new gameplay/accessibility options. One option will double the combo input times, so instead of players having 1.7-2.6 seconds they'll have 3.4-5.2 seconds. The other option just disables them entirely. #StarSpark #GameDev #IndieGame #Godot

I set up a second 30 minute interview last week for today at 3pm CST. I've been on the call link for an hour and a half waiting for someone to show up just in case the time zones got mixed up and I emailed the person who's been scheduling the meetings so far. Hopefully they're just busy 🫠

I wrote a piece this morning about my love for the Game Boy family of consoles. There were so many fantastic games, but I chose seven of them that I've discovered over the many years of my life. This includes a more recent one I picked up for my birthday last year! Enjoy!

Can we ask for your help? We’ve been lucky enough over the last three years to become one of the most popular print magazines (within gaming) in the UK especially But print is absolutely brutal. Tariffs and printing costs have taken a toll this year Can you share what we do with your audience? ❤️

It's been a month since the #Soulblaze early access release so here are some numbers for those who are interested. At the time of launch, I had around 2950 Wishlists vs now 3093 (there were 331 new, and 137 deletions, and 59 conversions during the launch month) #gamedev #indiedev #Godot

This week I finished the enemy CPU tweaks, so today I began making a codex section to show info for characters, combat actions you've found so far, and more. It's minimal, but here's a peek. I think I'll include the versus screen sprites later today 🙂 #StarSpark #GameDev #ScreenshotSaturday

My first one was in 2023. Not long after I started doing the public daily counter. @liamtwose.bsky.social did me a huge favor by putting my not even a game yet ugly baby in this section on the pyg site. There was a LOT missing, but just showing up daily in the community wss enough to be noticed.

I need a lot of examples of (fairly simple) art in beloved television shows/movies. Preferably painted ones. Like this cat poster from Buffy, Mr Krabbs's first dollar, Brash and Bold, kind of the self painting from Not Another Teen Movie, etc Dunc's shield is on the edge of "too complicated"

This is the lifetime wishlist history of Bibidi Bibidi! Next Fest gave us a pretty decent push, we were at ~1200 going in, ~1800 after. Tonight Retromation played the game and now we're past 2100. I did a lot of email outreach (sent around 800 emails) and we participated in a couple of festivals.

8 months after launching Star Spark's Steam page, the game now has 633 wishlists, +25 from last month. Marketing was limited to posting on Bluesky and Mastodon using the #WishlistWednesday and #ScreenshotSaturday tags, and then sharing those posts on Discord. #GameDev #GameMarketing #Steam 1/4
