Our first scene is done! This update brings the first use of a gallery with general flow to games & back. There're bugs in the scene but it's more fun to hop around & throw bombs at Boris than the original game! mooseatplay.itch.io/re-nes-flops... #indiedev #nes @itch.io

I wasn't sure I could pull it off...but I got a game I made 22 years ago in college working on modern Linux! Technically, #SteamDeck playable 😆 mooseatplay.itch.io/blobs #indiegames #indiedev #old

Added my @gamesdonequick.com Break Channel to my @itch.io page. Maybe it'll get merged someday 😄 Took some time to create a standalone HTML5 app to fake the React-based channel system, & there's visual bugs, but it runs. itch: mooseatplay.itch.io/gdq-vampire pull request: github.com/GamesDoneQui...

If you're stoked about #GodotEngine 4.5 release and want a hands-on demo/tutorial of the coolest new features, check out our (IMHO) top 6 new features in Godot 4.5 video. www.youtube.com/watch?v=KriN... #gamedev #indiedev

Micro-design post: mooseatplay.itch.io/re-nes-flops... #gamedev #indiedev #gamedesign

Semisolid platforms are not negligible to implement. Working on allowing characters to walk & jump through, then land & stay on top. The challenge is compounded when there are multiple levels of platforms, standing on one and trying to walk through a slightly higher one. #indiedev #gamedev #godot

New project! Re: NES Flops mooseatplay.itch.io/re-nes-flops #retrogaming #godot #indiegame #indiedev #gamedev

Please support great #indiedev and not the ad/microtransaction insanity. Play "Luck Be A Landlord" and "Balatro" 💜

#VideoGameBacklog "Arzette: The Jewel of Faramore" (Switch, 2024) is an amazing homage and spiritual successor to the awful CD-I Zelda games. The animation, voice, and characters are as bad as they should be, but the game is not just playable...it's fun! Thanks @seth.games & @limitedrungames.com!

I finally finished Lorelei! I have a physical notebook full of scribbles I can't post because of extreme spoilers, obv. #VideoGameBacklog

I finally uploaded a tiny, silly browser-based P&C adventure I made for An Event Apart's JS10k competition in 2010! mooseatplay.itch.io/phantom (It still works!) #ScreenshotSaturday #indiedev

#VideoGameBacklog "The Mr. Rabbit Magic Show" (PC, 2025) is a short, point-and-click escape-the-room puzzle game by @rustylake.com to celebrate their 10-year anniversary. It's free, weird, and fun. #indiegames

Such a cute-looking #pixelart RPG!

🧵 What is #VideoGameBacklog? #indiegames #retrogames Hiya! I'm Ryan. I've been acquiring video games since the NES era. With the advent of digital distribution, bundles, and free "games of the month," my collection has increased to about 1500 titles.

#VideoGameBacklog "ΔV: Rings of Saturn" is a space mining sim by Kodera where you collect ore from within the ring field. It has good physics & autopilot mechanics (once you get used to them) yet it's still a little tricky to get those buggers in. #indiegaming

Silly, but why not? Achievement Unlocked: Time Played > 1 year! howlongtobeat.com/steam

#VideoGameBacklog "Zombie Night Terror" (PC, 2016) is: what if Lemmings but you're spreading a zombie apocalypse instead helping cute creatures get home? I want to like this game by NoClip. The level designs and actions are interesting, but it gets frustratingly tough quickly. #indiegames

Waiting for the end. #retrogames #Zelda #MajorasMask (I might need a print of this)

#VideoGameBacklog "Yooka-Laylee" (PC, 2017) is a well-known action platformer from former Rare folk, and for good reason! The characters, models, scenery, and controls are spot on. Worth a romp if you have it.

#VideoGameBacklog "Yesterday" (PC, 2012) is a P&C adventure with unique animation and quite a dark story involving alchemy, Satanism, reincarnation, and other creepy topics & locations. Worth starting if you enjoy the genre! #indiegames

#VideoGameBacklog "What Remains of Edith Finch" (PC, 2017) is a walking simulator by genre but an extremely artistic story in reality. The game is short and dark, as if Edward Gorey created a 3D visual novel, and is worth at least one playthrough. #indiegames

#VideoGameBacklog "Yoku's Island Express" (PC, 2018) is an adorable mix of platforming, exploration, and pinball! This is a gem from Villa Gorilla and you should play it for the art, music, design, characters...and pinball. Roll your ball to victory, little Dung Beetle! #indiegames

#VideoGameBacklog "X-Morph: Defense" (PC, 2017) is a tower defense game but you also control a highly maneuverable alien craft. Building/strategy and attack waves are separate, but you fight & can build during the wave. Art is pretty good and, overall, it's a fun take on the genre. #indiegames

#VideoGameBacklog "Wonder Boy" (PC, 2017) is a beautiful remake of an old Sega platform adventure…but level design, attacking, and collisions are still frustrating. Worth playing for the art & music though, plus, retro toggles for each! #indiegames #retrogames

#VideoGameBacklog "Wizard of Legend" (PC, 2018) is a fast-paced action game with wizardry. Enemies hit hard and, without much healing, grinding feels required from the outset. Arcana cooldowns are a bit tough to gauge in this mostly excellent game. Pixel art and jazz music are amazing! #indiegames

I've had parts of this written down for a while - but I thought it was about time to document the detailed version of what happened during Balatro development localthunk.com/blog/balatro...

Enjoying a little Wing Commander III with the great @markhamillofficial.bsky.social ! #retrogaming

#VideoGameBacklog "The Witness" (PC, 2016) is an artistic 1st-person environmental puzzle game. The puzzles are interesting but get repetitive. However, the brilliant colors & models of the world provide incentive for progression. There's not much going on, but that's the beauty of it. #indiegames

#VideoGameBacklog "Where is my Heart?" (PC, 2014) is a pleasant puzzle platformer. Find hearts & get 3 characters to the exit, switching between them at will. Each has a special ability, like rotating panels, allowing progression. Try it for a casual, interesting, experience 💕 #indiegames

#VideoGameBacklog "Victor Vran" (Xbox, 2017) is an ARPG where the titular character hunts demons while upgrading weapons & magic. The story is fun enough and play control & visuals are pretty good. Vran is voiced by Geralt (Doug Cockle)!

The greatest trick #AI ever pulled was convincing the world it knew what it was doing.

#VideoGameBacklog "West of Dead" (PC, 2020) is a fun action/shooter w/ undead Western themes. Gameplay has novel cover mechanics, art/style complement the theme, roguelite & weapon mechanics work, & it strikes a balance btw enemy volume & speed. Worth a shot! #indiegames

Gimmick! 2 review www.sidequesting.com/2025/02/gimm... via @sidequesting.com

I submitted a pull request to add Vampire Survivors to @gamesdonequick.bsky.social's break channels 😵 I also contacted the @poncle.bsky.social Marketing Team(tm) and they gave me a go-for-it. This is amazing. github.com/GamesDoneQui...

#VideoGameBacklog "Wargroove" (PC, 2019) is a turn-based strategy game by @chucklefishltd.bsky.social with cute #pixelart and story. The gameplay is fairly standard, but it kept my interest and is worth giving it a shot! #indiegames

#VideoGameBacklog "Void Bastards" (PC, 2019) offers an innovative blend of FPS, construction, & rogue-lite. Its stylish visuals, distinctive enemies, imaginative weapons, & diverse locations come together in a delightfully bleak world that kept me going for one more station. #indiegames

#VideoGameBacklog "Valdis Story: Abyssal City" (PC, 2013) is an extremely solid action platformer by Endlessfluff Games with fun items, spells, enemies, & a little exploration-puzzle solving. The visuals are beautiful & the music has a great atmospheric charm. Give it a shot! #indiegames

#VideoGameBacklog "Vagante" (PC, 2018) is a fairly pure and fun platforming roguelike by Nuke Nine. Brave the depths with equipment, quaff unidentified potions, fight baddies & RNG over and over with pretty pixel graphics! Check it out if it's in your backlog! #indiegames

#VideoGameBacklog "USB Stick Found in the Grass" (PC, 2021) is an interesting concept where the game is a fake USB drive on your Windows machine with files on it to explore like a 25-page diary, e-books, & password-protected zip files. #indiegames

#VideoGameBacklog "Lorelei & the Laser Eyes" (PC, 2024) is an eerily captivating & stylish puzzle adventure where you explore a mysterious hotel, unraveling the past, present, & otherworldly. With minimal dialogue & a plethora of puzzles, it has the nostalgic charm of classics like 7th Guest.
