I'll better skip calculating this. ^^

So, today I'm announcing a new book project... and doing a call for papers: crpgbook.wordpress.com/2025/10/31/t... It's an anthology of video game history outside the usual US perspective - an accessible & exciting panorama of different realities - and I'll pay 300 USD per article. Please share :)

Death Trash Update 0.14.4 and a few words on the current focus of development: (content, of course) store.steampowered.com/news/app/941...

Nuts, anyone? #acorn #peachtober25 First time trying out a color palette.

As we all know the game industry is going through very turbulent times, unfortunately this has also affected several members of our collective. The silver lining is that one of the largest rooms in our coworking space in Berlin will be available from September 1st. More info in thread...

The Saftladen, the indie games collective I'm part of here in Berlin, is looking for new members to rent some desks. Infos over here: www.linkedin.com/posts/saftla...

Posted this a few months ago when itch went offline (following the bogus phishing report from Funko), still very relevant today for different reasons

Хтось не знав, а хтось уже й забув, що є чудовий послідовник класичних #Fallout — #DeathTrash. Поки гра в дочасному доступі, переклади додаються як модифікації. Запрошуємо спробувати й наш переклад, який ми сьогодні оновили до поточної версії гри: steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/...

🔥 The Drifter is OUT NOW! 🔥 Solve your own murder in our fast-paced point 'n click thrill-ride. 15% off for launch! Steam 🤜 store.steampowered.com/app/1170570/... GoG 🤜 www.gog.com/en/game/the_... It's been a long road working on this one- so exciting to finally get it in people's hands!

Got an e-mail from some fresh indie devs, asking what it would cost to make a game like Death Trash, and I am inclined to answer: TEN YEARS OF YOUR LIFE AND THE LAST SHRED OF YOUR SANITY!

Got a technical bug report via e-mail, with nice words, description and screenshot. Investigated the issue. Wrote a reply listing what the person could try in this case. E-mail could not be delivered. "This mailbox is disabled." This job can be frustrating sometimes.

As game dev I often wonder if my intuition about the Steam market matches reality. So I did a small game to test it: Guess how many reviews a random game has. You can now play it too on steamle.com

Last chance to get Death Trash in the Steam summer sale: store.steampowered.com/app/941460/D... We released a major content update: store.steampowered.com/news/app/941... Roadmap is on the store page. Daily devlog: steamcommunity.com/app/941460/d... Plus I can honestly say that I love this game.

Found some decade old design notes and really shaking my head over some of the ideas that my current self knows are dead-ends, or unrealistic, or just weak or stupid. Wonder how understanding and benevolent my future self will be about my current output.

Was going through some old feedback items today and rediscovered this favorite of mine.

Ich bin SEHR stolz: Heute ist die erste Ausgabe von OK COOL 3000 erschienen, das neue monatliche Magazin von OK COOL. Liebevoll handgemacht, 14 Seiten gefüllt mit exklusiven Inhalten und komplett gratis, ohne Haken. Hier könnt ihr die erste Ausgabe schmökern: okcool.space/ok-cool-3000... ❤️

This is the way!

I admit the Death Trash Early Access has been very long. But it's disappointing, pushing out a major update, getting closer to the finish line, and Steam reviews landing at mixed, because "development hell", "never getting finished", "work harder" and the critics not even playing the latest version.

The Perished City is here. A large content update for Death Trash, continuing the campaign, with new locations, new quests, new characters, new enemies, and more. We hope you'll enjoy this. store.steampowered.com/news/app/941...

Moment of forced self-reflection as an artist: Painting of my painting inside the game I'm painting.

I don't think it makes for the most edifying literature, but I have continued writing my daily development log for a few months now. Maybe it's of interest to someone. steamcommunity.com/app/941460/d...

New "Featured Projects" section on my recently reinstated homepage: www.anjinanhut.com/featured/ A solid overview of what sort of experiences I can bring to your team. Open for jobs in Germany or remote from Germany. Game director, art director, team lead, product lead, game design and art, senior.

Space: the final frontier. Have you ever thought that maybe not space itself, but the thing exploring space, nameley fiction, was the actual final frontier all along?

I return to this quote from David Foster Wallace quite often: Learning how to think really means learning how to exercise some control over how and what you think. It means being conscious and aware enough to choose what you pay attention to and to choose how you construct meaning from experience.

I have been neglecting social media in the past 2-3 years. I lost acquaintances, audience, a sense of community. But I also feel as if I got some peace of mind back. I enjoy my time being alone with my thoughts or a book. Same as when I was young. I guess there's rarely a way to "have it all".

I'm looking for work, part time or full time. Basically I want to make your stuff look good, be it newspapers, magazines, shirts, games, sticker sheets or ice cream packaging ✨ I'd love it if you could share this post. If you want to work with me, please get in touch.

My friend @mirkdrop.bsky.social is in Berlin for a few weeks, I’ve asked her to host a small workshop about zines and she said yes! 📆 When: Thursday, May 8, 3–5 pm (it's a public holiday) 🍊 Where: at @saftladen.bsky.social, close to Frankfurter Allee Sign up at www.eventbrite.com/e/copy-that-...

Can't believe I've done this shit 50 times I'm not going to say it's one of the biggest, consistently running game-related meetups in the world... but I think it is? Not counting meetups in bars where people only mingle and network, which is different than what we've been doing with #TalkAndPlay

I am looking for a technical solution for this scenario: Playing a classic singleplayer PC game with mouse(!) any keyboard, but with two people on different computers, like a "virtual hot seat". So a shared screen scenario with people being able to switch controls, and performant enough for games.

Today is the big day! 🤖🥳🎉 From 9am ET / 6am PT / 2pm CET you will be able to buy Mother Machine! And until April 9th you can get a free FLC to expand your experience! store.steampowered.com/app/1555980?...

HUGE NEWS: we got a release date for Steam AND are coming to Xbox Game Pass on the same day!! Lonely Mountains: Snow Riders arrives on Jan 21!

Germany's age rating is also an issue for demos: If the demo steam settings are not updated(even if it doesn't have a dedicated Steam store demo page), it will also be delisted from Germany. Thanks to @talecrafter.bsky.social for detailing the process here: steamcommunity.com/app/941460/d...

I kid you not, @itch.io has been taken down by Funko of "Funko Pop" because they use some trash "AI Powered" Brand Protection Software called Brand Shield that created some bogus Phishing report to our registrar, iwantmyname, who ignored our response and just disabled the domain

Keeping #watch in Rohan. #pixel-dailies @pixeldailies.bsky.social

Here are some of my favourite pixel art paintings I did for peachtober.

Have you played Death Trash yet?? You should! It's still in early access, but already a super polished action RPG experience.
