🌼New Video!🌼 We explore all the benefits of the rootweave in the demo for ChloroLink by @laywelin.bsky.social! youtu.be/amgpJkY1Xxc

#MiniJam210 is over for me! It was fun, I wanted to experiment doing a 3D escape-game! If you want to try out a short puzzle-mystery made in 72h: laywelin.itch.io/astral-mystery #gamedev #indiedev #indiegames

Okay I knew 3D would be difficult :D All the 3D projects I worked on, 3D assets were handed over and ready to use! 8 hours in: got a story and tiny puzzle ideas, I hate probuilder, I just reinstalled Blender... but I can walk, look around, use doors / locks and collect items 🌟

Excited to participate to MiniJam 210: Astral I'm gonna explore 3D ideas along with my new toolbox 💖Never did a first person proto yet, gonna be fun! #gamedev #indiedev itch.io/jam/mini-jam...

I see no lies here

Crazy how difficult it is to start another project when you worked 9 months on the same one! I need objectives again. Or a team. Both?! Maybe a jam would help! Let's find a jam.

Can you make a cozy strategy game? CHLOROLINK is a 4X game without the 'exploit and exterminate' of the genre. @laywelin.bsky.social on the team's design philosophy. INTERVIEW www.sifter.com.au/post/can-you... #cozygames #strategygames

ChloroLink released exactly one month ago... while there might be some surprises related to it, it's time to move to another project and find a way to pay bills ✨ BUT FIRST let's update the jam toolbox to include all the new tiny tools and scripts! Love that part 💖 #gamedev #indiedev

We made a bundle on Steam to celebrate their release!! It's lovely to collaborate with Low Flame Studio and Milkshake Games, wishing them an awesome release week 💖 Go discover all the pretty fishes! 🐠🪼 #indiegames #indiedev #cozygame

We've got our winners for this Thursday's ✨️Demo Day✨️ for Earth Month!! 🌎🌏 - "ChloroLink" by @laywelin.bsky.social - "Bloomkeeper" by Resonance Interactive - "Tukoni: Forest Keepers" by @dream-operator.bsky.social - and "Outbound" by Square Glade Games and @silverliningint.bsky.social

Too many job offers ask for examples, so I made a portfolio following the advices of other professionals. Available on the little button next to the resume little button. sites.google.com/view/leontro... Tell me if you think this lacks one specific type of document.

D'ailleurs, j'ai rajouté cette anecdote là sur mon Media Kit qui s'étoffe de plus en plus en "anecdotes" ☝️🤓 schrodingerkittenmediakit.carrd.co

Hahahaha incroyable 😂 Résumé du lore: Moi qui découvre la démo: "Les plantes se désarrosent" Les devs: "Trop bien le mot, on va le rajouter dans le jeu" Les devs qui tiennent leurs paroles: (Wishlistez ChloroLink, c'est super mims et super bien !! : store.steampowered.com/app/3411230/... )

✨ We updated our Steam capsule ✨ As ChloroLink is out in 2 days (March 27!!), we thought this one would better represent what the game is about! How do you feel about it?💚 #gamedev #indiedev #indiegame #indiegames #videogames

@schrodingerkitten.bsky.social Ici on aime pas mentir, c'est pas pipou. Du coup on a inclus tes mots, comme promis !

Démo testée et approuvée de notre côté !! Allez Wishlister 🫶🍀🍃

Okay the game is ready. THE 👏 GAME 👏 IS 👏 READY. Last few days, might spam a bit because I'm hyped and I want you to see how beautiful and peaceful the world we crafted is! ChloroLink will be out March 27 ✨🍃 Please share the world about it!! #videogames #indiegames #indiedev #cozygames

Beaucoup de paillettes dans les yeux après une journée à présenter ChloroLink au festival du jeu vidéo Toulousain (merci @toulousegamedev.bsky.social l'impression de retrouver des copains en venant aux events !). Plein de retours constructifs et de très chouettes rencontres 💛

📢 INDIE DEVS WHO ARE IN NEXT FEST! If you're participating and would like your demo/store page reposted to 37K+ Bluesky followers then drop it in the replies below* *No games that use Gen-AI please and thank you.

ChloroLink is participating in Steam Next Fest ! It's a critical moment for a tiny indie game made by a small team like us, so if you could check out our demo, it would mean the world to us 💚 And don't forget to give some love to other games! 🌱 #indiegame #steamnextfest #cozygame #gamedev

Hey. Tell people when they do good job. When you like the stuff they make. When you like the characters they’ve created. The stories they’ve told. Nobody hears it as often as you think bc everyone thinks everyone hears it all the time. Trust. They don’t. Tell. Them.

ChloroLink will participate to Steam's #nextfest next week! Our steam page is all cleaned up, I'm ready to welcome new players testing the demo 💚✨ #gamedev #indiedev #indiegames

What's happening, horses everywhere this week?! @malicedafirenze.bsky.social Are you responsible for this? 😂 itch.io/jam/mini-jam...

Nouvel article ! Le post-mortem narratif de #Sandwalkers par Goblinz Studio. Écrit par son narrative designer (moi). Partie 1 : l’univers. Ou comment un pitch GD a réveillé le fou du lore de jeu vidéo sites.google.com/view/leontro...

Me every night: sigh... it's so difficult. Everything in this industry you're trying to join is falling appart, there is no room for you, why bother Also me every morning: AHHH LET'S DO IT ANYWAYYY GOOO (Yeah my caffeine level is high this morning WE GOT THIS OKAY) #gamedev #indiedev

This is where we post work-in-progress GIFs full of placeholders made by the programmer? Okay! Testing out a color palette and windy vfxs for our 2nd biome 💛 #gamedev #indiedev #indiegames

People praising new AI building video game worlds are so out of touch ^.^" Even putting aside the part where it's trained on things people crafted without giving them any credits... you really think all those rocks in the games you love are just randomly placed, do you?

Today while discussing colors for ChloroLink: "I'd love purple, blue and green... kinda like the swamp's water in Chicory." Them: "Hmmm Chicory? I get the palette, but the game is black and white Flo. You're the one that placed those colors." I'm still processing it tbh

At 1:30 CET (in 15 min!) join @amory-vost.bsky.social testing ChloroLink's demo on Twitch 💚Always exciting to witness someone playing our game!! #gamedev #indiegame #indiedev

Pause ChloroLink ce week-end pour participer à la #GGJ26 en physique à Albi ✨ Exercice rigolo pour moi qui ait plus l'habitude des jams en ligne, hâte de rencontrer des gens 💚

Small, free act you can do to bring some good in this world: add positive reviews to ALL you Steam games, especially the small indies. You don't need to write anything smart, just "game good" is enough. Every positive steam review tips the algorithm and helps your fav artists get more sales

Yes! Leaving a positive review on a game made by small teams makes a huge difference, and also don't forget demos! I'm telling you, when you are sharing your first game with the world, every comment is something truly special

🚨 Did you hear? Our demo IS OUT! 🚨 Yes, you can play ChloroLink right now on Steam! If you play it, leave a review, it helps us a ton 💚 store.steampowered.com/app/3411340/... #gamedev #indiedev #cozygame

🎉🎉 DEMO AVAILABLE 🎉🎉 The demo for ChloroLink 🍃, our cozy management/exploration game, is now available on Steam!!!✨ It contains the first chapter of the game: First biome, first flowers, 4 secret luxicorns to find! TELL EVERYONE AROUND YOU!! WE ARE SO EXCITED 🍄🌿🌻🐞 #gamedev #indiegame #indiegames

Friends think I'm spending all my working time writing code. Nah, being a gamedev also means you randomly spend 20min on Photoshop cleaning up a dumb asset that ended up with white pixels on export months ago and you just noticed while integrating it 🤪 ITS CLEAN NOW - CAN BREATH! #gamedev #indiedev

Is that enough particles? I'm saying we need more, @mantelia.bsky.social says it MIGHT be "too much". ...I should add more, right? #gamedev #indiedev #indiegames #particles #Indiegame

It's funny because I'm a huge 2d platformer fan, and most often I feel like "oh, another one." But sometime I stumble upon a new one and I'm more like "OH! ANOTHER ONE!?" Look at that squishy cute blob!

Happy new year everyone! We're refreshed and ready to deliver ChloroLink 🍃✨ The demo build is in review, cannot wait for you (yes you reading right now!) to play and get your feedback! 💚 #gamedev #indiedev #indiegames #indiegame
