SO, you want to network but don't know where to begin. 1. DON'T. Make friends instead 2. It's not about what they can do for you 3. Famous people are just people first 4. If you do have to gush, don't just say 'i love your work' , pick one thing and say why. Open ended compliments are awkward

Very much looking forward to making some more recipes and painting up a storm in the new year

Certain 80s/90s UK TV quiz shows definitely informed some of my future art choices, and no, I won't explain

Reddit is wild because you can see a really cool post about something really interesting & indepth about a small corner of game dev that's really thought provoking but also get 100 posts of "I want to start in game dev, where do I begin" or something else you can Google quicker than the post itself

A fried chicken shop called "The Undiscovered poultry" A soup kitchen called "The best of broth worlds"

You’ve just opened up a Star Trek themed restaurant. What are you calling it? Either an all you can eat restaurant called "The measure of a man" Or a seafood restaurant called "The one with the whales"

Game dev question - when balancing your visuals, are you doing this for LCD or OLED monitors? Gut feel is LCD because I imagine that's what most players have. (I ask because I'm thinking to get a new TV and/or monitor)

Out of London this Xmas with my partner, and I'm glad to be disconnecting from my computer

I'm literally working on it

Hello new followers! I'm Jamie D and I'm a freelance VFX & technical artist by day and plucky, solo indie developer by night. Below is my (slightly out of date) VFX reel and below that, trailers for my games! Nice to meet y'all!

Hello to all the new folks! 👋🏻 My name is Alex and I'm the lead indie dev at Polygon Treehouse. We're a micro indie studio making award-winning art-led narrative games like Röki & Mythwrecked.

Please can they make an alien film set at Christmas please?

Sometimes you just want to dip into a SICK looking map for an evening. This is that

You know, I'm something of an artist myself

I played Vaporwave Pinball at the Good Game Indie Dev in London! It's great 👍

Tonight I visited three spirits

It's a great question - the UK event scene has slowed down a bit recently

I find it fascinating how our initial skill sets impact new disciplines we try. I find animation principles really influence how I design levels. How I add variation to my environment art affects how I design games in my brain.

Going to tell my kids that this is "Darmok and Jilad, at Tanagra"

At some point, I want to make a game with art direction inspired by Max Payne's photo-style diffuse maps only, but they are all 2k

This is dumb shit because we still say "film" but everything is digital and we say "video games" but VHS is a quaint curiosity for many. Stop trying to reinvent the world we live in to sound smarter than everyone else and enjoy random terminologies.

So are all my cool indie dev friends going to be targeting low end devices next year? Perhaps Steam deck as a target? Seems smart given the cost of living/RAM prices/graphics card prices.

I'm about to eat the wildest meal combo

It's nearly 2026 and YouTube is too global to have US centric takes on gaming history where they say "Nintendo" had 90 percent of the market with the Nes.

A friend showed me that her 7yo is interested in making apps and has been drawing wireframes on paper! I wonder if there are simple tools for young kids to make their own pretend apps, any ideas? (Don’t respond with Scratch)

At this point, if you are not disclosing that you used AI, you know that your audience doesn't want it

"Indie games" is like "indie rock": a term that was originally about the origins of a work, now regarded as more of a vibe than anything, up for constant debate, and fully ignored by the kids who DGAF and only play Roblox and Fortnite anyway

Remember kids, using AI loses you awards

ANNOUNCING Miles O'Brien's transporter tycoon

Feeling the same! A lot of 2025 was very little in the way of paid work, and a lot of doubt happened because of that BUT things are looking up and new indie projects are spinning up.

Have to admit, I didn't like nu-gorn at all (nor the Klingons eating people thing, though that kinda predates disco I think?)

Incredible scenes

Well tell them it's ok to be wrong and move on

My partner said that the bookshop we get out cards from had sold out of Christmas cards, so she improvised

May play some Christmas games today

Reclaiming "Vibe coding", rebranding to 'Jive coding" but you can only listen to 50s music

It's probably because I did a couple of days on some VFX on Trash goblin with the wonderful @spiltmilkstudios.bsky.social but I'm loving the idea of a Warhammer miniatures refurbishment game? Get some second hand minis from eBay, strip them, clean up, remove mold lines, paint, base etc.
