Genuinely powerful words to live by.

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

Gamedev grindset schedule (GUARANTEED SUCCESS): 10 AM wake up 11 AM watch devlog videos 1 PM read indie game marketing blogposts 3 PM relax with "making a game in 24 hours" videos 6 PM open engine and leave running in the background 9 PM scroll feeds 1 AM wind down with a GDC talk 2 AM bedtime

also ever since i learned about color spaces every time i see a digital gradient with gray in the middle i sigh to myself

i finally finished all 9 ships so now it doesn't look weird anymore hooray #gamedev #thistookme10months

Hi #pitchyarogue! just in time for my release :0 My roguelite's about creatures in conflict over food and power 🦙 I'm super close to 400 wishlists and it would mean the world for me to reach that milestone! bsky.app/profile/blis...

thanks to my gamedev socialization now every time i see a steam game whose description starts with repeating the game's title i cringe a little inside

for decades, the nascent field of game design has been wrapped up in one question. how can we make the player feel true power? how can we truly question their morals? this is why for my newest game, i have put myself in a hydraulic press that will descend 1 cm every time a player beats a boss

JUST STICK TO STANDARD PROCEDURES... WISHLIST ON STEAM BELOW vvv #GodotEngine #indiedev #gamedev

Why don't they sell computer mice that vibrate like controllers it would be awesome

Do you like puzzles? Do you like cubes? Can you rotate a cube in your head? Well you don't have to anymore because we've got a game that's all about rotating cubes: ~ Orifoldium ~ Out now! #indie #indiegame store.steampowered.com/app/3244150/...

yea

sorry for following 3700 people i promise im not a spam bot i just really like art

1: bro is running out of money 2: Notch barely even knew what he was doing when he was part of Minecraft's development, the parts of the game people really love can all be attributed to Jeb (who joined in and then took over way sooner than people think)

let this be a PSA to game devs - don't waste peoples time unless you are sure you can pull through. I understand making a game is harder than making a song. but along with time and energy, making any good art requires passion

Made a board game style poster for Heretic 🚲♟️🙏🦋

Every game dev knows about coyote time and jump buffering for platformers but mantling is still so underrated... There's so much potential in that mechanic... I think it should be placed alongside the double jump in the platformer mechanics basic toolbox

If you want to compete in the indie game scene, your protag's hips must be massive.

The new game genre name "lethal-like" really sucks can we just call them "extraction horror" games instead? It's a much more self-explanatory name that also reuses terms people are already familiar with

hi 👋 i made this game 💿 maybe you should check it out 🫵

Dwagon...

Chimera Nursery is a world that's been developing in my mind for a long time now. I've wanted to be secretive about it since I wouldn't say it's "ready" yet but I don't know how much more time I can spend without using the idea in some way. Might as well let everyone watch it develop further.

new videogame with @waporwave.bsky.social ! Its on steam! The creators of samurai gunn 2 published it! play here: store.steampowered.com/app/3035660/...

bluesky bros... behold SHRIMP GAME: a PvPvE multiplayer SHRIMP mech dog-fighting game where you can SHRIMP your ride, fuse abilities, krill your friends, fight bosses, all in a gameplay loop similar to Kirby's Air Ride #godot #indiegamedev #gamedev

Deltarune Archetypes

(unfinished!) (🎵 - They Might Be Giants - Nothing's Gonna Change My Clothes) with the help of my partner a few years back we were able to achieve a pretty convincing stop motion paper craft effect in blender! here's the fruits of our labor.. i'll share how this was all done later!!

Me if you even care

you people have no idea how much random weird shit i have written down in my gamedev notes

I just fell into a massive game design rabbit hole of stuff like this after spending a little too much time checking out chess variants

need more brainrot feature suggestions (=･ω･=) #gamedev #indiedev

Don't mind me, just putting up posters in my new pad

this might be one of the best character select screens ever made #gamedev #goodnessgracious

i think the selection screen is turning out pretty cool (ignore how there's 7 placeholder copies of one ship) #gamedev

its still fun to just watch them bounce around though #gamedev

generating custom maps from PNGs #gamedev !!!

If you want a professional-sounding soundtrack, you have to hire a composer -- full stop. There are a lot of videos on YouTube named like "learn to compose great music for YOUR indie game in just 1 hour!" but that's just completely impossible... you'll only waste time and get frustrated. #gamedev

if any of yall try it feel free to drop a screenshot of your creations down belowwww
