The Pegfinity demo is now live on Steam! 🎉 Launch balls. Trigger ridiculous chain reactions. Unlock upgrades. Watch the numbers go completely out of control. #gamedev #godot #indiedev

<please boost..> After 6+ months of letting the idea stew and tons of other distractions I'm returning to my Eight Neighbors game. Not every board generated solvable.. Give it a try and provide feedback if you have time. lardratboy.github.io/8n.html

I'm looking for work. 21 years of experience. • any game art, isometric, top-down, side-scroll • stylized or realistic • characters, icons, key art, animation • Can build a style from zero or match yours • Big projects don't scare me • ex Minecraft DM here or email [email protected]

BOXED-IN turbo 8x playback test - love the way the sfx sound triggering this quick youtu.be/b6yHEi1X3JM

`BOXED IN` #match4 #browser #game. This is a work in progress, so there are some rough edges and some bugs left.. If you aren't doing anything right now why not do me a solid and click the url and at least tell me if it 404s for you. lardratboy.github.io/boxed-in.html <Please boost>

lardratboy.github.io/juiceboxed.h... - just what nobody asked for - crazy annoying screen shaking - keeping it around to remind me of what I don't like..

interesting

Favorite TV series, real answer Buffy The Vampire Slayer Columbo Death In Paradise Firefly Midsomer Murders Star Trek: The Next Generation The X-Files Twin Peaks

my current favorite polyominoes - collect your own partial set here codepen.io/lardratboy/f...

radial polyomino atlas gotta collect them all :P

A refactored Boxed-In needs play testing.. If you have time please give the game a whirl. The match 4+ modes and higher color count modes need human stress testing. lardratboy.github.io/boxed-in.html

AudioLog is a Chrome extension to track which tabs that have played audio while you were away. Source is on github if you don't install things you can't inspect.. chromewebstore.google.com/detail/dabjh...

Stratum (working title unified strata) now supports ?fetch= arguments. this allows you to point at an image or data and have it display. (see example) lardratboy.github.io/nested/neste...

FragCoord v1.0! -Write shaders in WGSL, Slang or even HLSL (experimental) -Build shader sets. Curate collections for teaching, organizing and learning. -Invited creators can now co-edit shaders -And much more!

Hi hi, Dear ImGui 1.92.7 is released! 50+ changes (e.g. tables reworked columns freezing with hidden columns, reorder from context menu, webgpu for emscripten 5 & wgvk native, nav keyboard/gamepad to open context menus, & many fixes/improvements) github.com/ocornut/imgu...

My first game on Steam. As a solo dev this feels unreal. Trailer’s here; if Pegfinity looks fun, a wishlist helps more than you’d think. Thank you♥️#indiedev #indiegame #incrementalgame #GodotEngine

I wonder how many of these were made..

Random game of the day: Beyond Columns (Tetris Style: Brad P. Taylor, 1989) Download/play: https://dosgames.com/game/beyond-columns/ #dosgaming #retrogaming #tetris #puzzle #columns

like a cat-scan but for your data #data #stratum . try out the #sdf #clipping on your own data. (still looking for beta testers..) lardratboy.github.io/nested/neste...

Another terribly named and overly specific data exploration tool, if you have #scumm data and want to explore it as try this out it's not useful but it is neat to see the data from these old games in a new way. codepen.io/lardratboy/f...

new 'through zoom' camera no longer zooms and gets stuck it will move forward instead. new #beta lardratboy.github.io/nested/neste...

While testing the file offset scrub feature. I discovered a new way to enjoy the classics ;) here is an entire #humongous #scumm game being viewed by my tool. don't blink you'll miss it the video is 15 seconds long... www.youtube.com/watch?v=5bpd...

Deluxe Poly #wip - Added layer masks. Here I've applied the white circle layer as a mask to the red rectangle layer. This is all fully nondestructive - you can edit the mask to add more/less to it or move shapes around in the visible layer to get a different end result. #pixelart #lowpoly #indiedev

screen grab from 'unified strata' (working title) this tool can drill down to see your data in different ways, not sure if it's useful but it is certainly a great distraction.. lardratboy.github.io/nested/neste...

#WebGPU tool, I am looking for a few testers.. Please if you do try it let me know if you have any questions, issues or suggestions. lardratboy.github.io/nested/neste...

When I contacted Ron Gilbert about the documentary, he told me "you need to talk to Brad Taylor". And talk to him I will. He goes by @lardratboy.bsky.social on here, and you'll hear lots of tech stories and insights from him if the doc goes ahead. Sign up at scummdoc.com to help get it greenlit.

I made a map of 3.4 million Bluesky users - see if you can find yourself! bluesky-map.theo.io I've seen some similar projects, but IMO this seems to better capture some of the fine-grained detail

Continuing our spotlights on recent cast announcements for the documentary, this one needs no introduction but I'll give it anyway: he's the man who made SCUMM, the designer most responsible for killing death in adventure games, and the pun-master of Monkey Island, Ron Gilbert.

Passport to Adventure: The SCUMM Story is a new documentary exploring the games, the creators, and the engine behind Monkey Island, Maniac Mansion, Sam & Max, Loom, and more. The journey begins early 2026. Join the waitlist at scummdoc.com

I updated both my phone and the computer on the same day and for once apple didn't screw my display setup #goodday wow we do live in the future. Not sure I like the latest glass look (old man shakes fist at sky

sketchfab.com/lardratboy/models 3D projections of games, shader outputs, screen grabs and random data files if you find that sort of thing fun let me know I'm looking for #feedback on the tool I built/used to export them.

some color for your timeline

toying with dataprism and projections, choose the data type, endianness and projection mode and discover something about your data :-)

Just what you've always wanted - a tool to 8 fold mirror point clouds, best used with smaller data files (small is defined by your GPU) codepen.io/lardratboy/f...

'Eight Neighbors' - my latest gameplay prototype is ready to play. #Claude, #Gemini and I have been collaborating on this puzzle #game. If you play it please let me know what you think. codepen.io/lardratboy/f...

3D or 2d projections of a flat data file - if that is your type of #nerdything go try out my latest tool update. It now supports even more data types, more projections, more fun. Use fractional chunks sizes (0.0625) on old game data/ROM files it is a hoot. codepen.io/lardratboy/f...
