Here's our indie game in #15seconds! 🍕 store.steampowered.com/app/3834910/...

it's my LAST DAY at the SQ games residency AND I AM SO SAD ABOUT IT 😭 this year has been truly wonderful - i've had the space and support to do all kinds of work i've dreamed of but never thought I'd be able to do for myself. and it's gone so much better than I imagined it could!!!

Oh snap, catch us in the Steam event associated with TOMORROW'S FROSTY MINI!!!! Tune in to see tons of sick new trailers and announcements from our friends!!! @frostygamesfest.com #gamedev #steamnews #indiesgames

love this moment in earthbound, idk why it was so memorable to me

The Frosty Mini showcase of games made in Australia and Aotearoa NZ is happening NEXT WEEK! ☀️🍦 Here's some handy timezone info to help you tune in: 🇦🇺 8am AEDT and 5am AWST (10 Dec) 🇳🇿 10am NZDT (10 Dec) 🇯🇵 6am JST (10 Dec) 🇺🇸 1pm PT and 4pm ET (9 Dec) 🇬🇧 9pm GMT (9 Dec)

it's a damn shame this game got canned like a day before release..

neat, interesting that this happens AFTER Air Riders ships

every so often the team and i write cute little letters. you can receive them in your electronic mailbox if you so desire! this one is from @oscarno.bsky.social

i love that there's just tons of weird bits and bobs strewn throughout menus in this game. feels like exploring a demo disk. oh here's the hat shop. oh, music player. oh and here's a garage where i can lay out my machines and rotate them just so. no it doesn't do anything, it's just to look at.

real gamer™️ hours

this is what real video games look like

due to the way i've constructed my echo chamber i'm getting none of the baseball tweets and all of the "what's baseball?" tweets

had a DELIGHTFUL meeting today where the whole team was just yapping and yarning about what the world of Dungeon Pizza is like; what happens of the surface, how does a dungeon impact the local economy, what kind of tax breaks there are for adventurers, etc

a few years ago numerous publishers told me they couldn't possibly invest more into making horse-focused games, it's just too niche, the audience just isn't big enough, there's just not enough people interested in sorry I can't hear you over the sound of TWO HUNDRED THOUSAND PEOPLE WANTING THIS

excellent write up about what Play Now is and why it's special! super grateful i was invited back to pitch again this year 🙏

Just now learned about an artist named Takahiro Kanie who did a bunch of really nice official mario art exclusively for things like jigsaw puzzles and shampoo bottles

it's my first proper day off in a long time and i've been spending it finally diving into this gem i picked up months ago!! opened the case and was shocked to see the instruction manual and the original receipt from when it was purchased 😂 someone took good care of this before me!!

feeling sappy atm but it's just astounding to me that there's this invisible mass of people who saw the thing i'm making with my friends and were like "yeah i fw that" 🥹

my first focaccia! why have i never done this before???

i'm pleased to be home :)

sitting at home taking these photos almost tearing up, the post-MIGW vibes are real 😭

peace out melb it's been real 😴😴😴

The game I'm making, Bumper Bout, is finally up on Steam! 🎉 Local versus pinball in the style of Puyo Puyo Tetris! Pick characters and stages. PLEASE WISHLIST!!! It goes such a long way! Thank you!!! #indiedev #gamedev #indiegame #pinball #partygame #unity store.steampowered.com/app/3938260/...

COZYSIMFEST FEATURE! Make pizza using spooky fantasy ingredients in Dungeon Pizza - such as rat chunks. (The rat chunks image on their Steam page is slightly upsetting, just fyi) #cozysimfest #cookinggame #cookingminigame #indiegames #indiedevs #cooking #pizza #dungeonpizza #growinggames

my Creative Coding students showcased their work in a public exhibition last night in Bakery Lane! i love teaching this unit. the students all bring something unique to their work. it's really special to see them celebrated in a physical venue.

Here's a look at a track from Dungeon Pizza. Super fun to work with these instruments.

i adore this whole playlist 🐛 go listen to the extended version here (it's perfect in the background when you have work to do!!!) youtu.be/HomCXnjfJ4I?...

back at QUT again last night, i really love to see the Game Dev Club still going strong!! and they've really raised the bar over the years - when i was a student there's no way we would've pulled off an event like this
