annoyed that pax's anti booth babe policies mean that half my usual outfit choices are out...

migw sched: - freakon - crashing the agdas w/ the polycule - parallels - showcasing @ pax - cult of the lamb puppet show?? very confused but keen

for the past however many years in unity, i've been changing object colors during runtime by doing shit like image.color = new Color(0.976f, 0.886f, 0.435f) and constantly being frustrated with stupid floats + needing to preen my codebase for color values whenever i change my game's color palettes,

It's time... the candles are lit... 🕯️ Our exorcism roguelite Malys is coming OUT of Early Access into 1.0 on the 24th of October! There's so much more to discover, including the FULL story as penned by David Gaider, more demons, more cards, and more content.

Dig into the “less is more” design fuels the fear of PROXIMATE, the disturbing solo dev creation from @cmddx.itch.io. Piece together a weird, scrappy, queer, horror game rightfully deserving of its spot in the PAX Indie Showcase: www.qualbert.com/pax-aus-2025... #Indiegame #IndieDev #PAXAus

oh god migw is next week? already?

posters joking about charlie kirk were held to a higher standard than the wall street journal this week

KIM KITSURAGI - "What is it, detective? Can you make it out?" BULLET - "if you read this you are gay lmao" 1. "It, um, doesn't say anything." 2. "Transgender ideology. My old foe." 3. [Espirit de Corps - Medium 10] "I think you should read it for yourself, Kim."

anyway it's unserious to talk about "political violence" rn because look the fuck around, man. every single day is political violence

it's just a grotesque spectacle for violence to be ever-present and normalized, for heads of state to make constant threats of violence, for violence to be the basic motile force of the entire system, and then someone who's not an acceptable target gets shot and it's all "oh we must be respectful"

getting way fewer sales than usual on my game today... wonder why...

got someone in the steam forums for proximate saying that they really want to make a VR port of the game with the side note that they haven't actually played the game yet and don't seem to know what's going on in it

I just wanted to see how bad it really was. perfect, adobe. no notes. great tech.

wizard punks website, now with a preview image! made in a day or two with @gleeson.dev for @eyeofstormcat.bsky.social and for fun wahoo. also wishlist the game it's good... stormcatgames.com

an email i sent this morning. i love making satire

what if i did bug fixes for proximate... haha jk... unless...?

It’s 2050 and a teen girl is torrenting a .tar.gz file of all the consciousnesses of all the tech bros who uploaded themselves into the cloud in a bid for immortality and modding them into The Sims 4

*5* person team. Insane war crimes level.

😈 We've passed $41,000 for queer artists! Get over 600 games, TTRPGs, zines, comics, and more for just $60 (or $10+), less than the price of one AAA game. Send material support directly to artists and get radical, heartfelt art in return. itch.io/b/3062

I'm seeing less posts about the Visa and Mastercard situation and I want to make it plain as day. You need to keep calling and bothering them, and losing them money. Because if we lose this, they are going to cut more and more from what's available until you can only buy what they approve of.

everyone has been saying "back the drac" and honestly, they're so right for that www.kickstarter.com/projects/171...

doing a stick n poke on myself for each game i've shipped. starting off with waste eater! proximate next

the cats in this house are fucking weird

playing around with ways to display text/choices in my IF game. i think the common model of "big image on one side of the screen, scene description on the other, choices in a vertical list" works fine but is also a missed opportunity for creating visual hierarchy / more playful forms of expression

my friends are making a game and it's going to be so good! please back it!!

#SaveSpeech its been a week, and while we cannot let up pressure on making phone calls, we need to start applying pressure elsewhere now as well! PHASE 2: START MAILING PHYSICAL LETTERS imgur: imgur.com/a/3pVupWQ more comprehensive info can be found here: stop-paypros.neocities.org yellat.money

Drăculești is LIVE on Kickstarter Play as Renfield, survive the terror of Castle Dracula, and find love in the darkest night in this seductive romantic horror narrative game. Starring Ray Chase as Dracula. Voice/Casting direction by @jennyyokobori.bsky.social 🖤 www.kickstarter.com/projects/171...

I feel we need to remind everyone that this all started just a few days ago, we haven't even been calling for a week and they're already at the "Hanging up because they can't take it anymore" stage. Keep calling

proximate's in this bundle!! good way to support me n a bunch of other queers 💖

✨ It's finally time. The fifth Queer Games Bundle is live now. For $60 (or $10+), get over 600 games, TTRPGs, zines, and more. Support over 300 queer artists for their survival and future art. itch.io/b/3062/

proximate is in this years PAX indie showcase! wow! aus.paxsite.com/en-us/featur...

Damn you mean itch didn’t actually just abandon these creators but has been working hard with its limited resources to figure out how to continue supporting them? How surprising

Queer Games Bundle 2025 launches in four hours. itch.io/b/3062/

one of my strongest held beliefs is that "the left keeps losing because we keep arguing among ourselves" is bullshit, but that is really being tested when folks can't extend a single branch of trust to an independent store that has been actively facilitating adult and queer art for over a decade

we're never beating the infighting allegations

Oh my god

The Itch/Steam thing dropped off the trending tab. Therefore it's time to remind you again to swamp the payment processors with more calls. If the call volume dies down in under a week they aren't going to learn their lesson. Make them regret it.

credit cards shouldn't tell you what to buy. you're supposed to tell the credit card what to buy. thats the point i think

I would focus on the people holding the gun rather than the head it’s pointed at for no other reason that they’ve come for storefront after storefront and they are not going to stop unless there is real collective pushback.

So you know how Steam updates their TOS to restrict "NSFW" content at the request of payment processors like Visa and Mastercard? The group behind that pressure campaign is coming after Itch.io. If you are selling books on itch, this concerns you. www.pcgamer.com/gaming-indus...

In a stunning moment of carnal desire, my calculator said “BOOBIE5”

A lot of people come into the games industry and pretty soon develop a cynical attitude that the industry is largely run by business guys who don't know a thing about video games. It's only after a few years and some seniority that you realize that those guys don't know shit about business either.

Exhausting that the most popular rallying cry against Steam's TOS changes towards disallowing certain types of adult content based on payment processor guidelines is "if porn gets banned that means SFW queer content can be designated as porn & get banned which would be the REAL tragedy"

bought a theremin today. it's kicking my ass

Child of Omelas? That’s thinking too small. What if like eight billion people suffered so a few dozen guys could live lives so insane they convinced themselves it’s more likely they’re inside a computer simulation

I'm at a loss for words here. "sorry we fired you in spite of our company doing great, maybe do a little Copilot about it"
