SAGE2025 has begun and the Snoutbreakers alpha demo is now out! Go download and play it, we put a lot of work into it! sonicfangameshq.com/forums/showc...

This week's #screenshotsaturday comes a day early. Happy friday! One week from now, SAGE2025 starts... and Snoutbreakers will be there! Fight the first three opponents in the game's lightweight tournament plus a late-game extra for genre vets in the Snoutbreakers SAGE2025 demo on Sept 19th!

and 15 years later it turns out the setting of minecraft is just kind of there to support your adventures. there's a sort of charm to the deliberate lack of elaboration, y'know? it asks you a question with ruins and monsters, and lets you answer it with buildings and adventures. It's collaborative.

Settlemoon's been out for 2 years today! Here's a lil' post I wrote (with old development screenshots!!) to celebrate. store.steampowered.com/news/app/244...

Saw this mod and inspired me to make a sprite sheet of my own.

Major balance adjustments for all characters. And Summer Sale! #cent0 store.steampowered.com/news/app/241...

If you're looking for something to play this summer, my game Kitten Burst is on sale! It's an RPG/Racing game where you play as a flying cat named Hapi. It's got a full story with a cast of characters inspired by the early internet, Bullet Hell Bosses, and a massive OST!

Dreams of Aether is 50% off for the Steam Summer Sale! 🪅🪅🪅🪅🪅🪅🪅🪅🪅💥 Microgames! Furries! That's it. That's the whole thing. I'm so good at marketing. Get the game for a snack-sized $1.49 USD here: store.steampowered.com/app/3463050/...

Settlemoon is 50% off for the Steam Summer Sale! A unique idle game about building a cozy sidescroller town. Lots of mysterious things to discover...why is this world stuck in a permanent night? Set things up and go AFK! Take your time! Get it here: store.steampowered.com/app/2443780/...

A lot of folk say that the hardest part of doing something is starting it. In gamedev it's the second hardest part. The hardest part of making a game is finishing it. Nobody really tells you this part since the tutorials are all about beginning it.

PARADROP IS OUT - Use tactical drops to win an island war in this micro RTS. Destroy bases while avoiding anti-aircraft guns and enemy air support. Take on 10 missions in an epic campaign, or challenge another player in battle mode! #paradrop #gamedev #godot #godot2d #indiegame #rts #browsergame

You kinda have to be careful with roguelike elements in your game. Randomizing things can lead to a lot of variety, sure, and players learn your game's complex systems faster. ...but it's not necessarily less tedious. It's easy to slip into making something RNG because you don't care about it.

if mollo gets in rivals 2 and gets a shirtless skin they should do this happy pride, top scars are cool as hell

Need to make secrets game

For y'all aspiring game designers, try out this exercise: Take a genre you love and REMOVE one of its main mechanics. How do you make a cool game without it?

Wrote a lil' dev update for Settlemoon to catch folk up to what I've been doing! Check it out: store.steampowered.com/news/app/244...

I have not stopped thinking about Añi since I played dreams (and credit to @chaokocartoons.bsky.social for designing the wonderful character!) #dreamsofaether #rivalsofaether #blender3d

Arecacura, The Sway of the Palms, is now available to play on the Rivals Workshop. Download them here: steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/... Get their stage here: steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/... #rivalsofaether

Since they just released, it's also @giik.bsky.social 's Arecacura's birthday!!! I'm sure they're probably believed in Añi at one point in his life, maybe!

"Seems that loud Air Armada fledgling forgot some of my lessons over the years, but the resemblance is still there. He's even attempted to replicate my signature moves with his own element. Tsk. Arrogant." Check out Arecacura on the workshop here: steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/... #rivalsofaether

I was lucky enough to contribute here! I did the key art you'll see in the youtube thumbnail and the workshop page! Giik did an amazing job with the character so please check them out! 😤 😤 🐓 😤

SUN-SCORCHED FLAMENCO: The theme for my friend @giik.bsky.social's new Rivals of Aether workshop character! I had a lot of fun working on this, and it's available NOW, alongside the character! Find it on my Bandcamp, YouTube, and SoundCloud! tanglenathair.bandcamp.com/track/sun-sc...

#dreamsofaether Añi and Amarelle my beloved

and here's the first draft I had of actual "stage sequences" as I called 'em. We didn't actually know who would be in the first stage for a while, so I sketched a stick figure of Ayala. Felt like a good "neutral" character to contrast the more bombastic ones later.

Now that Dreams of Aether is finally out, I can start posting in-dev stuff that I thought was neat. For instance, here's the very first gif I recorded of the project. This was testing the main game loop. The lifecounters weren't even in the right spot...

Check it out on Steam: store.steampowered.com/app/3463050/...

Dreams of Aether X Rivals of Aether II ⛈️ If you own our new Aetherverse game Dreams of Aether AND Rivals of Aether II, you'll get a free pack of exclusive crossover icons in Rivals of Aether II!

As a lil' added bonus...if you have Dreams of Aether in your steam library, you also get these 5 lovely player icons in Rivals of Aether 2!

And hey, if you want more weird rhythm stuff like that one boss, give this a shot! It's one of the most unique game concepts I've seen and it's REAL intense. This isn't sponsored or anything, I just like this game. store.steampowered.com/app/2416050/...

The free period is over, but Dreams of Aether is still 20% off for a week! $2.39 USD is a little less than $80, right? If you already got it when it was free, give your friends who missed out some gift copies! It's like a candy bar but better for your diet. store.steampowered.com/app/3463050/...

It was all a dream...

Despite wanting a Kirby Air Ride 2 for literal decades, finally seeing the announcement and i'm like...okay, neat? Maybe it's the lack of details, maybe it's the potential pricepoint, maybe it's AAA development sanding off anything interesting, maybe it's SSBU not being my thing. I dunno. I'm sour.

突然ですが、エイプリルフールを記念して、Aetherverseの新作『Dreams of Aether』の配信を開始しました！ 24時間限定で、無料ダウンロードが可能です。終わらない悪夢の中で、「Aether」シリーズをテーマにしたミニゲームの数々を楽しみましょう！
