that feeling when a bug has eluded you for days and then you find it and fix it 😏

Looked back at my first prototype from 8 months ago... we've come far! GO PHISH is turning out really good. Wishlist it on Steam! store.steampowered.com/app/3909150/... #indiegame #indiedev #steam

I don't know if anyone else is having this Windows 11 issue, but my font library keeps getting zeroed every day, resulting in me needing to manually install my font library daily. I put it onto their Feedback Hub if anyone wants to upvote it for me if you're on Win11 aka.ms/AAzv6ls

Oh no I think Marathon might be a banger... www.youtube.com/watch?v=SiJI... this looks like a lot of fun...

it's funny playtesting after a balance pass and realising immediately that you've definitely made the beginning too hard

there is exactly one thing I can't stop thinking about after watching the State of Play, and it's this

Fun milestone, I just played through an entire run of Go Phish! There's still a lot of balancing to do and we're far from content complete, but it feels really good that we have a start-to-finish playable. Time now to fill it out with some more content! #indiegame #indiedev

Oh now this is GOOD NEWS

played some titanium court… talk about really frickin good first impressions

we've been hard at work on our being a bad guy phishing/hacking trying not to get stressed out of your gourd simulator game #indiegame #wishlistonsteam #steamgames #steam

we should bring back forums

The first 20 minutes of Northernlion playing Space Warlord Baby Trading Simulator had me rolling it was so funny

if anything is going to get me to switch to linux eventually it's windows 11 uninstalling all of my fonts every time the computer restarts. damn trash OS

I'm such a sucker but I've become sincerely kind of excited to play Marathon. It's so very clearly NOT my kind of game but I really, really want to play it all the same.

I'd really appreciate it if you would wishlist GO PHISH if you haven't yet, and if you have - if you would share it with a friend you think would be interested <3

don’t mind me, just listening to the in-dev GO PHISH soundtrack when I’m not working because our composer is killing it and so it’s full of bangers

y'all should wishlist ShelfLife, @fnifegames.bsky.social are cooking up something real special

It's felt really good to start getting some of the music in the game. Here's a look at the shop sequence music, with the merchant who turns up at your apartment each day. #indiegames #gamedev #indiedev #roguelite

my wife started playing Obra Dinn last week, this is how I found her after I did the kindergarten drop-off

I’ve never played an Armored Core before, started the first one and immediately lost 5-6 missions in a row, going so far into debt that the corporation sold my body to a cybernetic research company and I had to start over fresh. What an intro.

Thinking about doing at least one drawing whenever I finish a game or book as an art prompt. Probably won’t keep this up but I need to make more time for drawing, so here’s the main party from Golden Sun!

cooooooooooooool

Rolled credits on Golden Sun! I had a lot of fun with this, and I’m pretty surprised/compelled to learn that the sequel is a direct continuation following a separate party from the first game. Wild that they have a save data import system on these GBA games…

First game of the year is Golden Sun per @itsalex.bsky.social suggestion and hot damn this is pretty good! I wasn’t expecting so much puzzling/environmental manipulation.

Had exactly one vodka soda and then fell asleep at 10.30, happy new year

Gonna harvest some plums this week… what should I make? Currently considering syrup and cordial…

love seeing new indie stuff that looks unlike anything else I've ever seen

Taking a break from last-min holiday shopping to just check in with y'all and ask: have you wishlisted GO PHISH yet? It's our premier new roguish-debtbuilder! It's on Steam! It's got cards, and stress, and dubious moral choices! store.steampowered.com/app/3909150/... #indiedev #indiegame

Pretty sure I'm on the naughty list because I hacked Santa... #indiegame #indiedev #wishlist #christmas #GOPHISH

seeing this made me so irrationally angry

I didn't like how the original format image looked so I made my own one. Anyway, I generally play 15-20 games per year - here's your opportunity to suggest something for me to play in 2026! I tend to play a lot of RPGs/action/narrative games, I'd be happy to branch out of my comfort zone though!

gawd damn this looks so fucking cool can some publisher pick this up immediately

Today’s harvest… our raspberry and boysenberries bushes are going nuts this year, punnets every week!

This is a more extended look at how GO PHISH plays - at the moment anyway! Still iterating on a lot of the timing of actions

Most of us did not choose to write or draw or design so that we could put products on the shelf. We chose to do it because it’s a set of skills we enjoy exercising, that give us fulfillment. It’s like asking a pro pitcher to just let a machine pitch for them. Fuck off and give me the ball.

I am unlikely to finish any more games between now and 2026 so here: all the games I finished in 2025.

now thats a headline right there

i will rag on anybody using an LLM for placeholder text when lorem ipsum has been here for sixty years

It blows my mind how big games companies will just hit complete own goals when it comes to PR... like anyone could tell the CEO to not mention AI in an interview. Now you have even more bad PR because everyone's talking about how bad your hiring practices are... it's blown up even bigger!

Putting this out there for all of you would-be hackers and card game aficionados that haven't seen our game announcement yet! Wishlist GO PHISH on Steam now! store.steampowered.com/app/3909150/... #indiegames #indiedevs

Thought I'd show off the buildcrafting you can do in Go Phish! Managed to put together this combo where I could do nearly 100 damage from an Ace (usually only 14 damage). Also there's a bug in this video, hopefully you don't notice? #indiegame #indiedev #roguelite #cardgames

Marathon still looks really good and I'm definitely... interested? But truly the only thing that would really convince me to buy it day one is a PvE only option. Duckov showed that PvE only extraction can totally work - why not let us?

Toddlers contain multitudes. One moment of kindness, handing a water bottle to their sibling. The next moment, winding their arm back and then full face slapping that same sibling.

We've started up a new Discord server where we'll be posting about GO PHISH development and sharing sneak peeks! It'll also be the first place to hear about future playtests. If you're excited for GO PHISH, you should join! #indiegame #indiedev discord.gg/8KxSYJ4AUp

I love Aotearoa New Zealand video games

Oh I’d do this! Got anything you can recommend I should play?
