ah the galaxy games. finally a new generation will be introduced to nintendo‘s ancient abandoned art of a little thing i like to call „level design“

they‘re open-worldifying prime 4, aren‘t they? lord help me

wild, if only nintendo had ever released a system with an actual 3d screen, those virtual boy games would have worked without the need for an accessory.

me walking into any new area in silksong: ah, the sad one

this is where i leave you… goodbye sweet prince 💙 it was quite a ride

welcome to video game. in video game you play very angry man who slice big ugly thing into many pieces and meet woman who says: you are chosen one, please kill more ugly thing

hot damn someone cooked with that scott pilgrim pixel art! unbelievably gorgeous.

Hey! Wrapping up my current gamedev contract soon so I'm exploring what’s next.15+ years experience, gameplay, engine & porting to consoles. Also made my own games with custom engine. Seeking a team to work on cool stuff (Unity, GM2, C++, C#, Godot or other - I learn fast :) www.david-amador.com

this delightful demo of just 10 minutes should be enough to make you realize that there are few developers who design with such effortless elegance and attention to detail. wishlist this gem and then BUY ELECHEAD!

The demo of Öoo is now available to play on Steam and itch.io! It’s just a short 5–15 minute experience, so please give it a try! #Öoo #GameMaker

damn check out this dope ass brother laser printer. it prints while you sit on the couch and then you can uh

don't think i'll ever get warm with the kind of free form "have it your way" style of level & puzzle design that's so pervasive now, esp. (& surprisingly) with nintendo too; design that leans almost exclusively systemic, using "player expression" as a replacement for experiences authored with intent

The industry loves nothing, devours everything, and will never care for anything but its own growth. If we want a better games industry, it has to be about people. It has to be caring for people, building up people, supporting people, protecting people, empowering people, connecting people.

the subscription model has ruined just about everything by now hasn‘t it?

maybe it‘s time to leave game dev, move to the lake district and just get a bunch of sheep

The trend has become that publishers want to see *so much more* than they used to before signing and funding, including - A half-finished game (not just a prototype with potential) - An existing community - Solid traction in terms of wishlists And at that point, what the fuck is a publisher for?

I've been saying for nearly a year now that the current trend in indie publishers becoming hyper risk-averse will rapidly make them obsolete and project funding without publishing services is the reason why 🧵

it's me. i have the next balatro. i'm making it. my dms are open. feel free to message me with your offers

really love this idea! in addition to experts it would be great to have filter cards either as an addition or in place of expert cards, where the app would favor "recent releases", "games released last year", "obscure games", "short games", "games with 80+% positive steam reviews", etc.

Welcom to dungeon

switch 2 arrived early 😎

is this a spicy take? the quality of hollow knight’s writing is genuinely better than 90% of the writing in video games and i rarely ever hear anyone talk about it.

someone cooked with this UI

here‘s a strange one: 7 years ago indie games that had little media and „indie dev bubble“ coverage could still sometimes do decent numbers. now it seems that i often see a ton of conversation & excitement about a new, cool looking indie, only to then visit the steam page and see <100 reviews.
