Alright! Let's actually talk about this waterfall thing. It is an amazing showcase of many things that I adore from late 90s/early 2000s graphics. I am replicating this in Blender through mere observation, so some things might not be fully accurate to the mind-boggling effects of the PS1.

Grab a free copy of Warhammer: Vermintide 2 for a limited time #WarhammerVermintide2 #Warhammer

Cool free stuff alert: They're giving away the base version of Warhammer: Vermintide 2 this weekend. Really good co-op first-person brawler about the world's most dysfunctional friend group fighting through the ratpocalypse. There's some decent DLC but they've added a LOT for free over the years.

Oh hey Vermintide 2 is a fucking BANGER of a game don't miss this

Panther Cat Animal is a hard hitting chiptune act from Umeå. He promises a strong dose of your favorite handheld 8-bit sounds mixed with modern rhythms, with influences from both the modern dance scene and your childhood's video game den. panthercatanimal.bandcamp.com Tickets: www.syntax-error.se

How I started making indie games: Worked in AAA & mobile studios for almost a decade in order to build up £8000* as a safety net so that I could finally feel safe to go freelance and work with indie teams I always WANTED to indie I just needed the MONEY.

In gamedev, if you're using a placeholder asset, best practices involve marking it as placeholder so garishly and offensively clearly PLACEHOLDER that you can't possibly miss it. Also flagging that asset in the dev process so it can be identified quickly before the final build.

Wizard Little and the big trouble, a puzzling adventure! 🧙‍♂️

During a talk, the speaker calculated how many games he could develop before retiring, given that each one takes three years to create. Now I'm here, calculating how many #indiegames I'll be able to release in my lifetime. Please make the games you like, we might not have enough time.

We are not ready for jetpacks

Your art isn’t bad just because it’s not selling right now. We’re in a recession and people don’t know when they’re gonna eat next, nobody can afford fun things because the economy is crumbling. It’s going to be hard a while.

Hmm I don’t trust this guy

Entry 28

If you’ve enjoyed an indie game please consider leaving a review on Steam. It does massively help and the devs and community teams love to read them. Especially around launch when everyone is knackered, a lovely review is such an energy boost.

Starving your peasantry has famously worked well for every king. Nothing bad ever happens when you do that.

SCOOP: For the last two years, Microsoft has pushed Xbox to hit profit margins of 30%, an ambitious target that's far higher than the industry average. This chase for profit has led Xbox to raise prices, cut thousands of jobs, and rethink everything. Story: www.bloomberg.com/news/article...

Preview sketch of a map by Guy Pradel for my upcoming big dungeon CASTLE AUTOMATIC. Five levels, each ruled by different factions, with pathways between them. Being very careful to make sure that the flows, chokepoints, gates, and keys between the different levels are interesting and varied.

I titled this “no kings”. This was before the first no kings protest. The liberals ruined it so it needs a new title.

Still regularly playing this gem ever since it released back in 2015, and as someone who has been playing the beta with 120 fps and hard mode I can safely say this is a great update for one of my favorite games of all time!

Entry 10

People have said we're crazy for making a game like this, but we love it. Ever level of Shroom and Gloom is created with 1000s of layers of illustrations. Don't think folks understand how fun it is to building a world this way! #gamedev #indiedev #indiegamedev #shroomandgloom #indiegames

MONDAY. SPITE AS FUEL.

even work you like!! even work you feel grateful to get to do. even work that feels like a blessing sometimes (despite low pay). you gotta do energy input on top of energy output or else all those things you like will crumble into dust and you'll be left with not just work you hate, but also grief

Due to redundancies I am now looking for work! I have 5 years of experience as a 3d artist. I am primarily looking for full time positions in studio or remote but open to other options. Any reposts are appreciated! 🙏 Portfolio: www.artstation.com/jomperr Linkedin: www.linkedin.com/in/perssonjo...

Sharing a few more seconds from the 2 minute art test we made during pre-production on our game. Before diving into development, we spent a solid month on this art test, looking at how we could elevate the visuals for Shroom and Gloom. It was a major investment in time, but incredibly worthwhile!
