One day I'm going to open Trello and it will just say "Good news! Trello is now Jira!"

Hey Friends! I just shared a breakdown of the VFX and tech-art I worked on for Australia Did It. You can check it out here: www.artstation.com/artwork/P6x1...

playtesting results just came in 😔

It's been a while. Glad to be announcing a new game, and happy that it is something experimental and weird: a tiny, tense, turn-based strategy game about merging units into spectacular combinations, and then watching them evaporate thousands of bugs. store.steampowered.com/app/2396130/...

I can't share what I worked on yet, but let's just say Rami asked me last minute to join the project, so it was a SPLIT second decision. I FLAPPED around, even though I was working on my MAIN project. Told him I was happy to put this on the MENU. Credit where CREDIT'S due, they did a great job!

So what's funny about the timing of this launch is that we changed our launch date on Steam to Sept 4, to which Steam said "ok but don't do that again" and then approximately 24h later Silksong's release date was announced.

... and it's live! For all you freaks who aren't otherwise predisposed we've got a weird tiny one-button infinite runner just for you and/or your Steam Deck! store.steampowered.com/app/3934200/...

Are Steam purchases working consistently yet? We chose the literal best day to launch a teensy tiny game on Steam.

Max's score for this game is so sick! I'm stoked for y'all to be able to hear it.

totally normal work task list today

AeLa has been working on this for a while now, and it's finally announced!! It has been such a joy and privilege to work with this team and on such a weird little game. I hope y'all like it! 💖

i once walked into a bar in NYC on jan 26 just as a DJ was yelling FUCK AUSTRALIA into a mic, and this feels a lot like that

a whole bunch of very talented people made this game and it looks rad!!

fucked up that you announce a game and then you have to keep working on it

I don't think "Tactical Reverse Bullet Hell" is perfect either but the alternative was "thinky shooty". Thanks to @gameinformer.com for hearing me out about Australia Did It, and for listening to me rant about money people mostly failing to invest in a healthier and more experimental industry.

Excited to finally be able to shout about this! I had the honor to work as the VFX Artist on this game together with the BEST people i met in this industry! Devs: @aesthetic.games Creative Director: @ramiismail.com Art Director: @castpixel.bsky.social Design/Music @smaxophone.bsky.social

We’ve been working on this really cool project and we’re so excited it’s announced! Check it out 👇

For a second there I thought I was going to be more active on here and then I kinda forgot about it, whoops!

Shout out to the people who make really cool splash screens for proprietary NDA tools. So few individuals will see your work but know that every time I see it I appreciate it.

AeLa is working on bringing one of our old mobile/web games, Udder, to Steam and I'm super stoked that I can finally play it on Steam Deck!

I am at the paranoia stage of finishing a game. For some reason we haven't been able to nail down, our build server is suddenly generating builds without shadows. We've managed to work around it with local builds but now running each new build is like cranking the handle on a jack in the box.

This is good internet stuff drawafish.com

Really enjoying He is Coming in my spare time. Runs are quick, the system is simple, and there are some cool synergies. I'm excited to see how this one grows through EA! store.steampowered.com/app/2824490/...

Why am I finishing a video game? Who thought this was a good idea??

I am in love with this filing cabinet Sam and I found on Craigslist this week. We wanted to replace an old desk that we were using basically just for storage and it’s perfect!

This game rules

Building Relationships is a silly game where you can: 💨 move like a real house 🏩 romance buildings 🎣 go fishing for cars 💦 also be degraded (only if u want to be) Coming in 2025 :) store.steampowered.com/app/2666920/...

Sharkey’s Fish

how we made Skin Deep food

Hello friends! My team is looking for a musician / audio designer for contract work on our combat-focused game! We're looking for music that's catchy, energetic, featuring chopped vocals, funky rhythms, and a seamless mix of hip-hop, electronic, and funk.

It's all fun and games until it has to be fun and a game

Made a ROC Game Dev starter pack. If you'd like to be added, just let me know 💜 go.bsky.app/2sp1rxa

For one of my teams, I'm looking for a freelance VFX artist who wants to take on a game that will go hard on explosions, lasers, chunks of enemies, and smoke trails everywhere. Paid contract, fully remote position, made in Unity, no shipped commercial games required. If you're interested, DM me.

played a new build of project fish today and it was so fun!!! we're making a video game!!

I have been working full time on a client project for about 3 months (part time for 2 months leading up to that). I would like to work on a video game again 🥲

Neighbour’s kids have a new sign up, no context, 10/10 live their energy

Repost a picture of the first game you remember playing. Somehow I can still hear this image.

Back in the Platform Problems Pit for the 30th straight day today

Unity is crashing whenever I clear the console. Extremely normal.
