Also remember that the first game you play in the new year will decide your fate in 2026!

Check out my annual End of Year (2025) post. I recap what I worked on and how my games have sold! Thanks to everyone and may you have a great 2026! 👉 www.arnoldrauers.com/end-of-year-...

very good mini auto battler prototype radcodex.itch.io/planet-slooper

Someone suggested I do a tierlist of the building games I've made over the last couple years. It's difficult picking favourites cause I've enjoyed making all of them! You can play them on my itch.io page but I'll also link them below. #gamedev

Spent some time getting the tire smoke to look right; still need to tweak a few things in the scripts, but I’m liking the progress so far🤠 #indiedev #gamedev #retro #game #ps1 #lowpoly #pixelart

ATTENTION BSKY: in celebration of Cinco Paus Day's Eve, please message me if you'd like a free copy of the best game ever made. :) smestorp.itch.io/cinco-paus Also TSLOG are doing an amazing series of podcasts on Michael's games: eggplant.show PLEASE REPOST! OR RE-SKEET! WHATEVER IT'S CALLED!! :)

I really want to dive into psx style aesthetics for one of my future projects. By now it‘s already out of fashion/severly overdone (looking at horror style itch games), but man if done right it has incredible vibes. 🤩

New year, new screenshots.

Still alive.

Hell yeah, it's done! It's the most expensive of these I've ever built, but it does look amazing.

Indie Dev discovers the game they're making basically already exists, worried of being deemed a ripoff. Original dev responds.

I was kinda offended by Spotify Wrapped ageing my music taste to 42, which is quite accurate. But I just watched my wifes wrapped and she got 80! 😂

In case you missed it: maybe the most random Gabe Newell interview ever (with poor audio quality), but Gaben killing it as always. I could listen to this guy talk for hours. www.youtube.com/watch?v=oFHX...

It‘s crazy to me that with a few of my games turning 10 years old, I had a players come and say „I played this game when I was a kid“ and now they are 20 and going to colledge. But I was still 10 years older as them now, when I made those games. A true hide the pain moment 🥲.

We've added 14k YouTube subs to noclip_2 in the past month, pretty much exclusively covering underground and indie games like this. Please come be part of what we're building over there.

It was an absolute privilege to have @perryjon.bsky.social on @decisionspace.bsky.social to discuss tabletop game design. Check it out! podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/c...

I made a tool that lets you find the treasure in your computer. It's called Windows Explorer 2 torcado.itch.io/windows-explorer-2

I love the new spell card variants in #CardCrawl2 🤩 @maxfiedler.bsky.social

#CardCrawl2 10 month progress screenshots. @maxfiedler.bsky.social

Currently working on adding @maxfiedler.bsky.social new interaction FX animations to #CardCrawl2. Here you can see Master Wu's hero spell card (Meditate) in action, which refreshes already used inventory items.

BIG FROG, my version of the card game truco but with frogs, is up for pnp playtesting, try it out: terriv.itch.io/bigfrog

It‘s not all bad, but even I would not recommend new devs to go mobile first. It‘s extremly tough out there.

Gnomitaire is the latest featured project on the front page of @itch.io right now and here are the analytics for anyone interested what numbers a feature can pull. #gamedev #indiedev #gamedevelopment

I recently refreshed my Itchio portfolio and added Gnomitaire (2020) and 2 super old projects of mine. One Tap RPG (2014) and Matchagon (2012). Very surprising: I could open both projects in Unity 6 easily and with some work make them work like they did 10+ years ago. tinytouchtales.itch.io

That's the end of #FallingBlockJam! We got over 200 entries!! These games look INCREDIBLE, thank you to everyone who participated! itch.io/jam/falling-...

I hit the Jackpot this morning on our local Fleemarket. 🤩 #boardgames

So I made the smallest game I could. This is sapito, a tiny daily classic roguelike, with a new level every day. Super simple, but finished! My plan is to keep updating it over time. joaosdev.itch.io/sapito Pixel art by @datagoblin.bsky.social and the whole game is inspired by 1 of their mockups.

yuge!

I have never played Hollow Knight and I’m not interested in Silk Song. Thank you for your attention on this matter.
