PHANTOM BRIGADE 2.0 DROPS TOMORROW!!

Sam did some of my favourite tracks on Rift only 3 songs deep in this new album and it's already VERY GOOD

i don't know why i didn't draw these mockups haha

I will say this for the Valve announcement: it is refreshing to see a product launch that is just "here's a product that you might want. here's what it is. here's what it does" with absolutely no mention of AI, mysterious future features that might arrive OTA, or some extractive business model.

Where would I point a small team of indie devs to get marketing advice these days? Any consulting folks out there?

🚨 Today’s the last day to pick up the NecroDancer Shovel Knight DLCs with the launch discount! store.steampowered.com/publisher/kl...

sort of incredible to read a review that doesn't just made a vague nod at AI being bad, but actively reckons with the ways in which falling obsessively to AI usage actively obliterates the artistic intent and integrity of the work you've made.

We launched GenExile, our solarpunk city-builder, in Early Access last week. We had ~35k wishlists before launch (not a barnburner but not nothin'). And they said, "Well, there's no way you'll convert literally 0% of your wishlists to sales." I looked them dead in the eyes and said, "Watch me."

I don’t understand how people can watch sports, it just seems unnecessarily stressful Welp, back to Silksong

Steel thy shovel and prepare to strike the earth! A Danse Macabre is nigh in these double duty DLCs – Shovel Knight digs into both Crypt AND Rift of the NecroDancer today on Steam! store.steampowered.com/publisher/kl...

If you are a fan of tactics games and never heard of Phantom Brigade, this is your sign to add it to your Steam wishlist 😌

For a brief, glorious moment I was top of the Moon Temple leaderboards in SCB for iOS! What a classic. Can’t believe I still have this screenshot haha Happy bday indeed! 🥳

It’s tiresome at this point, but again, their entire pitch is “wouldn’t it be great if there were no such things as talent, craft, and skill,” and what that means is a bland, slop-filled world. www.businessinsider.com/marc-andrees...

Rift wouldn't be what it is without Chloe!! She was instrumental in not only establishing the art style, but she would effortlessly bring our game design jams to life with her fleshed out concepts

Wanderstop was one of my favourite demos of Next Fest. i promise you that anyone who works in a creative field will resonate with this game congrats on the launch Davey & team!! excited to play the full game!

I'm positively overwhelmed! We couldn't have asked for a better launch 🥹 It's honor to work with this team, the musicians, and especially the Tic Toc Games co-dev folks!! Proud of what we were able to accomplish together! 💪

imo godot state charts are the best thing to happen to state machines since switch/case github.com/derkork/godo...

made some progress on my one-button #godot game JUMPHIKE

Hey, everyone! We're looking for a concept artist for a short-term contract to help define some sci-fi space environments (including ship interiors, exteriors, and props) and character / creature designs for an upcoming game. Think Hitchhiker's Guide meets Scavengers Reign. #gamedev #indiegame (1/2)

ok godot is pretty fun

ok they're making a Helldivers movie, but how're they gonna continuously update it with patches?

learned how to make zines and now I can’t stop

I'm excited to once again contract a disease that melts my tongue off and desperately cobble together a cure so I can barter again, or get infected by a fungal spore that produces edible mushrooms from a limb Great game!!

why BUMP or SET when you can CLAP 👏👏👏 @beastieball.bsky.social

Oh hey reminder that we’re making a new NecroDancer thing with a demo you can play now!! youtu.be/PIAm9WQbbgg?...

finally got a negative review and it's incredible "i'm trying to be homophobic but the game is too fun to refund..." LOL sorry my game is so good?? refunding it literally costs you negative money, there's nothing stopping you from playing a bad game instead you coward!!!
