shelter from the storm in the local card shop (I'm having too much fun making comfy snow maps) #gamedev #indiedev #steam #cardgame

The winter storm is providing a perfect opportunity to hunker down and build out a snowy mountain area. Moon mountain was one of my favorite areas in the original Cardaire, hopefully this can be even more rad :) #gamedev #indiedev #cardgame

Quick little 7-2 for the new Lorwyn set B) Lorwyn holds a really special place in my heart, as the first magic set I ever played. (Check the poster that hangs by my computer) I have a lot of feelings about Wizard's choices in the past decade, but I'm happy to say this set delivers.

yes cardaire's overworld tile sprites are 26x26 yes this is a weird non standard resolution yes it makes things really weird and difficult to scale yes I am way too deep in dev to change this now yes every day of dev that goes by makes it harder yes I am living with the demons of my own creation

Nothing hits quite like old MTG coverage. I have no idea what cards are in play, but this shot of a player's shoulder for 2 minutes mid game sure is breathtaking. #mtg #magicthegathering #tcg

Super cool to have Cardaire bundled with two other really fun games in the singleplayer card game space. Thanks to @fuzzforce.bsky.social for getting the steamworks work done. I had a chance to try out Isle of Swaps and Recesses over my holiday break and I have to say: PLAY THESE GAMES

Random Cardaire dev update 🧵, with some footage of the deck editor I had lying around. - Main systems done (save/load/menus/npcs/duels/etc) - The first ~2 hours of the game done I'm so excited to get the it into peoples hands, it feels way more polished than the first already. #indiegame #tcg

Honored to announce that Cardaire has been announced as one of the candidates for the RPG Maker Award 2026! Link (You can select language at the top right of the page): script.google.com/macros/s/AKf... #RPGMaker #indiegame #gameaward #cardgame #steam

My perfect little christmas angel🥹 #osrs #oldschoolrunescape

Added a camera pan function today, as you can see I'm putting it to very good use. #gamedev #indie #indiegame #steam #solodev #frog #cardgame

I've spent a lot of time fine tuning the feel of the overworld for Cardaire: Eternal Aces. Big inspiration was taken from Octopath and Pokemon BW (but with expanded lighting) I'm super proud of how it's looking! #indiedev #gamedev #steam #pokemon

NOW THAT CARDAIRE IS PUBLIC I CAN FINALLY SHARE THE DUMB DEV MEMES I'VE BEEN MAKING. NICE orig: @shenanigansen.bsky.social

Read a thing today and realized: Delayed triggers and a few proto examples existed, but "enters the battlefield" abilities didn't really exist until cards like Man o' War in Visions. Wild to me as someone doing card game design that such a basic design piece took ~3 years and 10 sets to iron out.

I'm beyond excited to announce that I'm now working on my dream game: Cardaire: Eternal Aces!!! It’s a love letter to those good old fashioned Collectible Card RPGs. Explore, collect, and build your own sweet deck. Available to wishlist now on Steam! GOGOGOGOogogo #indiegame #cardgame #tcg #steam

This Saturday the 22nd is the 1 year anniversary of Cardaire's release. Would sure be a good day to make a really big Cardaire related announcement 👀 #indiegame #gameannouncement #gamedev #steam

Quick little 7-1 to try out the mtg arena powered cube. This ol' spellslinger's still got it. 👴

gamedev be like: simple task to improve pause menu styling that spirals into 2 week long optimizing and re-writing half the systems in your game

My favorite thing in the world. My FAVORITE THING in the world is seeing a streamer end their 1st Cardaire video with no Card Shards, and right at the start of video 2 they have an unexplained stack of Card Shards. I see you streamer. I know you were fishing it up off stream.

Making games is brutally slow process, and every bit of progress is hard-won. But sometimes all those tiny pieces finally click, and you see it all working together in beautiful harmony. Today was one of those days and it feels so good. Man, I freaking love making video games.

The WORST thing about getting published by Devolver is that we had to get rid of this

Hi! Hello! How are you? I've been enjoying a little break from social media since Math Climber’s launch, but I’ve been toiling away on my next project nonstop. Really really excited to show it off more. Hoping for a full reveal in late November, but here’s a tiny first teaser :)

Now that the launch week Math Climber bugs have been squashed, this weekend I get to dive into dev for my next project. Very excited to get working now that I know a little Godot. Got something really sweet I wanna build. :)

Math Climber spoilers without context

First (minor) patch for Math Climber! Some of the treasures were getting eaten by the save manager. (my bad) steamcommunity.com/app/3561510/...

In addition to launching a game this week, another long term goal came together today. CHEESE CAPE BEGONE. LETS GOOOOOOO

psst... if you're a content creator of literally any size hit me up at [email protected] if you want a key for math climber

Well look at that... Math Climber is now officially live on Steam. Woohoo! ! ! Get that big brain of yours over to Math Mountain, if you think you've got what it takes to take on the challenge! #indiegame #gaming #steam

math climber tomorrow :)

I am PUMPED to announce that my super hard game about math is launching in just one week! Get over to steam now for your last chance to wishlist it before it's out, and I'll see y'all at the top of MATH MOUNTAIN ! ! #newgame #indiegame #gamelaunch #steam

Cardaire is currently discounted for the next two weeks as part of the Steam Summer Sale. Grab a copy if you wanna crack some packs and throw some cards! store.steampowered.com/app/3124080/...

Steam achievements and cloud save support added to Math Climber today, oooo baby we got a stew going

The demo for my super hard game about math is now live for the June Steam Next Fest. Give it a try if you think you have what it takes to climb MATH MOUNTAIN #steam #steamnextfest #demo #indiegame #hardgame

Nothing like some gentle motivation after you miss a jump. #screenshotsaturday #indiegame #Steam

In retrospect using a rng distribution algorithm because I "found it hilarious" might have been the wrong choice for tournament fishing in Cardaire. I've decreased the required score from 75 to 30 for the achievement. The alg: Math.round(95 / (Math.random() * 95 + 1)) + 5 #gamedev #indiedev

Updated my silly little pause menu. I giggle at the tiny little ball you see fly out after the crumple animation every time. #gamedev #solodev #indiegame #edutainmentgame

Added some *flavor* to Math Climber this week by changing the spear to a BENDY pencil you use to spring around. I think it looks cute as hell #screenshotsaturday #godot #solodev #indiegame

Arezu 💕 #pokemonfanart #ポケモンイラスト

Typo'd get_node in godot today, but maybe things are better this way

I got a question about it, so I want to make it clear: My games DO NOT and WILL NOT use AI art I was lucky to work with some A+ artists on Cardaire, but for the assets I had to make myself I would always rather doodle something and have it look simple and heartfelt. #gamedev

It warms my FRIGID HEART and makes me feel like a little personal nintendo hotline when I get questions about where to find things in my games.

Shoutout to my favorite 3 raccoons in a trench coat. Excited for everyone to see more of what they made, it RULES

Added some sound effects and animation to falling. Now when you fall and lose hours of progress it's not a tragedy, it's a ~*~* c o m e d y *~*~ #screenshotsaturday #indiegame #solodev #precisionplatformer

Math Climber will drop mid 2025, then I'm using these new Godot skills to make something next level. I promise you that.

If you're wondering what I've been up to since Cardaire v2.0 dropped at the end of January, the short answer is: I really like making games man. lmao

Working on a pause menu for my silly little educational game #screenshotsaturday #indiegame #solodev #indiedev

I wanted to make a freaky little game to learn a proper game engine (Godot) and Math Climber is somehow what came out of that. I can't explain it, it's magic, that's all I know

Introducing: MATH CLIMBER ! ! ! ! Precision platforming mixed with MATH. I dug up this old VHS tape that explains the game, but I think it might be a little broken and glitchy... Coming 2025, wishlist on Steam nowwwww store.steampowered.com/app/3561510/... #indiegame #steam #precisionplatformer

today seems like a good day to announce a videogame 🤔

Only two more days of the Steam Spring sale. If you're interested then grab a copy of my silly little card game RPG while it's cheap!
