As a friend of border collies this game looks great! www.youtube.com/watch?v=XsOd...

Took a break from the project I should be working on for a little side quest. I've wanted to try making a desktop idle game for a while now. Little Desktop Runner sits on your desktop and is about going for runs and slowly improving. Wishlists appreciated! store.steampowered.com/app/4167350

Remember, we still have 5 and a half weeks in which we can still make a difference with #directdemocracy Get friends and family to sign our Initiatives, and get influencers talking about the most important movement in gaming history! eci.ec.europa.eu/045/public petition.parliament.uk/petitions/70...

After not getting as much sleep as I'd have liked, I'm all done with my submission for the PULS GAME JAM Got to make an idea I've had rattling around for a while since it fit the theme (Kaputt) well enough. A short metroidvania where you've forgotten the basics petpumpkin.itch.io/kaputt-knowl...

You said it, it's nice to finally know, even if it wasn't the result we would've liked. All the best to the lucky folks!

Anyone else noticed these accounts that only repost and have AI generated profile pics & banners?

Our dumb pizza delivery game is just a bit less popular than Dragon Ball and UFO 50 on the Steam Featured New & Trending List😱😱😱

Happy 30th Anniversary Playstation

I want to make a personal appeal for the beautiful new game of Palestinian gamedev @rasheedabueideh.bsky.social. As nobody will fund a game about the 1948 Nakba, Rasheed is crowdfunding via launchgood.com/1948. I've been doing production advice on the game pro bono, and it deserves to exist.

Heads up for Godot devs: Firefox hasn't been playing nice with Godot embeds, so Itch has made Godot games launch a pop-up on Firefox. If your game is password-protected, this will throw a 404 error. Do not password-protect your Itch games if you use Godot or Firefox users won't be able to play.

Last night I got to see Fat Freddy's Drop play here in Munich, real cool to get to see a band from my birth country play in my new home country :> They killed it, was a sick set! www.youtube.com/watch?v=ipCf...

Some accounts mentioned they hover over a Bsky profile to see the Steam link of a game. Otherwise they don't interact with the profile at all. ❌ Usually full url of your game looks like this: store.steampowered.com/app/3290400/... ✅ Short version: steampowered.com/app/3290400 #gamedev #indiedev

Attention, game devs on Steam: Not only the games themselves need an age rating in Germany to appear, also the DEMOS need one, or else they will be gone without a trace! Apparently, it's also NOT SUFFICIENT to inherit the age rating from the main product. Best check!

Woo wee that's a lot of #Steam wishlists for Spud Customs! We are only 11 away from cracking into three digits and our first 100 wishlists. Give us a #wishlist if you can spare the bandwidth in this economy, or repost if you're running on fumes: store.steampowered.com/app/3291880/... #pcgaming

Post a video game gif from the year you were born!

Lazy Sunday? Want something chill but challenging to play? Why not give Stig a go? There’s a demo available if you want to try before you buy! Progress from the demo is transferred to the main game, so there’s nothing to lose by playing both 😊

He's in his happy place 🥰

You all know the feeling #gamedev #solodev #indiegamedev

Last hours for the launch discount on our debut game Robot Detour! store.steampowered.com/app/2666840/... You can save... *looking at numbers* ...60 cents! 😅

A nice round number 😊

Ooo, nice feature bsky. If you've got your own domain you can update your handle :> Slightly improves the share link to my profile: bsky.app/profile/petp...

I love that PS1 style graphics are in right now, can't get enough of em

We got featured by @itchio.bsky.social on their front page!!! It's an honour and an absolute pleasure considering my warm feelings towards the platform ♥️ P.S. you can even play the browser version of the demo there! nozomu57.itch.io/robot-detour

Awesome little showcase reel from Games Ground 24 by @vjlunar.bsky.social Feel like that DiCaprio meme pointing at the screen. www.instagram.com/reel/DCjSF5C...

Hey fellow programmers / home-office peeps, recommend me some good focus music playlists! Preferred without lyrics (they tend to distract me)

I love this album, one of my regular gotos for getting stuff done www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZudR...

Over 1000 applications, for a Germany-wide scholarship I had expected much, much more tbh. Stoked there are 130 slots, glad it will impact so many devs rather than just a few. Also glad we'll find out this year... Hard to think about much else at the moment 🙈

Gotta say, I'm so glad I had these cards printed, it made it so easy to point people in the right direction. In hindsight so obvious, every event is a learning process!

Had a great time at Games Ground. Loved the cool staged and saw some genuinely eye opening talks. Met lots of lovely fellow indie devs and played some rad games. I'll definitely be back next year, can't wait!

Just wrapped up and sent in my application for the Press Start Games Stipendium, now to cross my fingers for the next several weeks 🤞

All set up for Games Ground in Berlin today, time for coffee!

Heading back up to Berlin later today. Lots of travel Dev travel lately!

Robot Detour releases in 3 days! If by any chance you want to cover the game before/after release, I created a press-kit: drive.google.com/drive/folder...

Very late to the party but damn Balatro is good fun. Fantastic game for mobile! #indiegames

Meant to share this picture before CIG but oh well, if you're at Games Ground in Berlin in November be sure to come say hi and snag a card! 🤝 Looking forward to seeing all the cool indie games there, there's a big lineup!

Farewell Poznań, it's been fun! Time for the 14 hour trip back home 🥲. Here's a picture of some random stools I stumbled upon.

Works done, now to soak up GIC Another thanks to Games Bavaria for getting me here! @gamesbavaria.bsky.social

Spotted Lorum Ipsum in the wild

Okay I take it back back again, I'm getting the hang of it

I take it back, this language is so unhinged, can't understand nothing

Learning some polish

Found a gaming bar, very cool

Hi Poznań!

Loving Dread Delusion so far, games like this paired with a steam deck sure take the edge off of long bus trips #indiegames

The things one sees whilst on the road

Heading off to my first ever GIC in Poland this week, super exciting! gic.gd A massive thanks to Games Bavaria for sponsoring the trip! Awesome that they exist and support indie devs like myself! games-bavaria.com Thanks @gamesbavaria.bsky.social #gamedev #indiedev #handshakes
