Going through a lot of behind the scenes updates where, if everything is done right, nobody notices that it was done. It can always be a tricky portion of the cycle to push through but leads to a lot of often undiscussed but vital QoL that just needs to be done.

[Face reveal!! Wrong answers only]

Exploding Judo will have a major update on **February 20, 2026!** This will include a new character, a new stage, some new costumes and QoL improvements! Thanks for having been around for the ride so far! store.steampowered.com/news/app/380...

Time for a little more #ScreenshotSaturday for Elemensional Rift. While 'Zieque is known for sleeping and being apathetic to the world around, when he is energized by something of interest, he can start to show a spectrum of emotion. He can even show fear at times. #ScreenshotFestival #pixelart

I hate AI almost as much as I hate ICE. I write about stuff on my reader-supported blog, and this one's been getting shared around again lately, so I figured, hey, I've got a really big $350 doctor's visit cost coming up. paypal.me/stompsite new article soon docseuss.medium.com/using-chatgp...

The next update for #ElemensionalRift is now uploaded and ready for those who have early access. This is focused on the new Red's Vault and updating some behind the scenes data to make updating smoother, use a little less memory and take up a little less storage space. nrutd.itch.io/elemensional...

There's currently a Steam Detective Fest event right now, and there's some very neat games on sale, such as The Séance of Blake Manor, a game that is quite honestly pure genius. I still need to play more of it to give it a proper recommendation, but it's been thoroughly brilliant so far.

Post a game you remember playing that nobody else remembers

If you see this post an Archer Archers can include more than just bows and arrows

Time for another #screenshotsaturday update for #ElemensionalRift . With this week being busy with behind the scenes code updates and filling up the last of the empty spaces in Red's Vault, it is reaching a point of near completion. Soon it will be another section that can be fully wrapped up.

Financial officers need financial officer chairs to officiate finance. Check out Elemensional Rift!

Keeping a strong focus of staying on top of sharing more for #screenshotsaturday . Red (based on the character designed by @hmibisondollars.bsky.social ), the financial officer of Elemensional Rift, who will put those hard earned carrodollars to use, needs a great throne to sit upon. #pixelart

Okay, I'm having too much fun, I guess😅 #screenshotsaturday

My indie puzzle fighting board game is coming to Kickstarter on March 3rd 2026! Pick your character and step up to the arcade machine. Input your attack commands by pulling connected matching marbles. More marbles = bigger attack! The twist: only the middle lane is shared~

First Castagne check / changelog preview / whatever you wanna call it youtu.be/oklO_x6w5Ag

Show me the four GAMES that influenced YOUR current game project." These are THE games, but they're in order of how great of an influence they've had (strong to less strong). #gamedev #indiedev #indiegamedev #FGC #ElemensionalRift

I announced my game BREKEKEKEX - a frog hunting combat game inspired by Naruto and Smash Bros. Wishlist: store.steampowered.com/app/4012150/... www.youtube.com/watch?v=rOyX... #indiedev #gamedev

It has been awhile since the last posting but a reminder that #ElemensionalRift is still looking for wishlists as we continue getting the arcade mode more polished to give players a deep connection with the cast. #indieFGC #pixelart store.steampowered.com/app/863390/E...

Trying to start the new year off strong with a build update for those who have early access. There is quite the list of updated posted to help show we're going to make this a strong year for #ElemensionalRift . nrutd.itch.io/elemensional...

Ticking out a lot of built up notes from conventions throughout the year. Already crossed out over 40 tasks for #ElemensionalRift . Things are getting cleared out and getting that list more manageable before the big tasks start to come up in what is in store for this year.

Emergency cat photo for those very stressed right now.

New year, new Beatdown Dungeon: Demon Day demo! This one adds the DragoMart dungeon, Instant Blocking, a recharchable burst by blocking, multiple save slots and auto saving after cutscenes. Happy new year! phil-airdash.itch.io/beatdown-dun...

New #HAFO build on itch.io. Updated accessory system and it loads using asset bundles so...yea...whatever, lol. Try the demo at hafo.horse #gamedev #indiedev #indiegame

ok, i've got a back view (limited to 1 chunk radius) rendering, with very high FOV and then spherized so i can use this as a matcap for reflective materials in the world

Here's a link to my new feed, FGC Tech Plaza Do you want to see more FGC clips on Bluesky? Do you want to try something out the next time you go to practice mode? Here's a place where you can share your work and learn from your fellow player Don't forget the tag #FGCTech bsky.app/profile/did:...

Let's start the year off right as I have a little time to breathe before a crunched convention year ahead hits. For those who showed up at AWA and poked around, they got to see an extra special guest appearing in #ElemensionalRift . @hmibisondollars.bsky.social 's Red McCano is guarding the Vault.

i will once again say if yall miss that stuff you should also be supporting stuff that still does it like Araiguma ( they put up a good interview the other day with one of the guys behind Jazzy Circuit )

It's wild that we're STILL in the era of fighting games where someone 1-and-dones you & their reason is: "I wanna play someone who actually knows how to play" because you chose a style/mode they don't like or think is valid. If the game lets me pick it, it's valid! It's not that deep, run the set~

be sure to add yourself if you are a solo game developer #gamedevs docs.google.com/spreadsheets...

I want 2026 to be the year where we collectively stop rewarding negativity. Stop bringing others down to bring yourself up. Stop bringing attention to genuinely awful people. Stop ignoring people bringing positive changes to the world. We need more kindness and empathy. I’m dead serious

Even though AWA just finished, it is time to roll out the next update for #ElemensionalRift early access. The feedback from AWA will be coming soon but there was a new feature promised by the AWA and wanted to ensure that was delivered. nrutd.itch.io/elemensional...

Keeping a much steadier pace for the #ElemensionalRift booth at #AWA2025 . Word seems to be getting around of how to find us and the battles will continue to get fierce!

First person to beat the #ElemensionalRift Sculpt the Statue minigame (after being in the game and doing conventions for 7 months with it available). A big deserved win!

Did a bit of a booth redesign and now the #ElemensionalRift feels a bit more complete and ready to showcase at #AWA

adios, one of the greatest games ever made, perhaps of all time, solely for a dialogue choice where you can describe shoveling manure, is on sale for 45% off, the lowest it will ever go!!! It's less than the cost of a meal at arby's! store.steampowered.com/app/1271400/...

Which four fighting games mattered the most to me growing up? Super Street Fighter II Battle Arena Toshinden (3 specifically but much love to the full trilogy released outside of Japan) Super Smash Brothers Melee Bloody Roar 4

If you're not happy with the direction the big publishers are going with fighting games, maybe try out some indie games! Frankly, the FGC could do a lot more to support games by small teams, so I'm going to put out some recommendations. 🧵 #fgc #fgcsky 💪🕹️

New rule this year: If you post "Play more indie games" during the game awards, you are required to make a thread recommending 50 of them.

....... Fuck...agree but also...please be passionate to people doing this and not making them feel like shit and less than human...

I may have been a bit quiet in the scramble to get ready but the Elemensional Rift booth is now live and ready for gameplay at #AWA !

After years, this still seems to be my most popular blog post about game development - how to develop an input buffer for a fighting game! It required a lot of work to get right and I'm happy it's still so well liked and referenced! andrea-jens.medium.com/i-wanna-make...

All the Mondhase games and DLCs on Steam are discounted for the Winter Sales! You can get Exploding Judo soundtrack, 8-Colors Star Guardians+ and the Schwarzerblitz Epilogue Costume Pack DLC for peanuts!!! store.steampowered.com/publisher/an...

For those at #AWA, you can come play #ElemensionalRift and check out all of the new content since last year’s show. It is still early in the show so lines are short for now.
