Stress, Injury, Sickness, Hunger and Fatigue. If any of those states hit 100, the character dies (and in Dead in Antares, one character dead = game over). You also want to keep them as low as possible, as the higher they climb, the harsher the negative effects!

A NEW unseen trailer for the banned 1995 title Forbidden Solitaire has surfaced... Forbidden Solitaire is in the @yogscast.games #tinyteams2025 event, which starts today. If you encounter streamers in possession of a short demo build, exercise extreme caution. #tinyteams2025 #TurnbasedThursday

Working on The Last Spell has been one of my biggest achievements and honour in my life. We're intending to end it with a bang, and what a bang this last DLC is going to be 👀

If you're at GDC this week, do try to be weary that we're halfway through Ramadan. That means there's a chance that one of the devs you're meeting up is fasting from sunset to sundown. Be mindful and be weary, and if you have any doubt you might be "offending" someone with an action, just ask.

In 2019 we built a joke game as part of a Rube Goldberg marketing campaign that would let indies turn the tables on key scammers. It got banned off Steam, exposed a $1.9M bug, confused the wrong scammers AND burned our marketing budget for zero gain. This is the story of Drawkanoid: Review Breaker.

"Sorry, your game sold millions of copies but our projections said it should have sold at least fifteen trillion for shareholders to be satisfied, so we're going to have to fire all of you. Now watch the news unquestioningly report that your game was a commercial failure. Probably because of woke."

Developing a game: 1000s of inspirations and life experiences fused into a unique and multi-faceted gem via an epic soul breaking journey. Selling a game: List the one game you copied and how your clone is better.

If you are a successful indie dev feeling the pressure to do something bigger and better with your next game, remember Jeff Minter. He made Tempest, and then made Tempest again and again. And every time, there are those of us who say: "hell yeah." We will say hell yeah for you as well.

I will keep saying it @valvesoftware.com improving the developer follower system into something that allows devs to establish a usable following across games and rewards support and community is 100% the solution to the discoveryability problem.

lmao no, TikTok users are not moving to Bluesky. They would literally rather learn Mandarin than learn how to read a feed of text posts. This is a millennial retirement home.

SILVERSTRING MEDIA IS HIRING! We're looking to hire a COMMUNITY MANAGER for a 10-month contract this year to help build our audience for our UPCOMING GAME. It's a FULLY REMOTE position but you MUST BE IN CANADA. All details here! silverstringmedia.com/jobs Please share widely! #gamedev

Aaaaand all the games that I beat in 2024! As usual quite a lot of JRPGs 😅 1000XResist was the best surprise because wow that game is so good FFVII Rebirth was the one that impressed me the most And I cried so much during the ending of Yakuza Gaiden 🥲

Finally created a Letterboxd account so I can log all the movies I watched this year at cinema 😁

Christmas gifts ❤️ from my husband

Almost 19,000 games were released on Steam in 2024. Up from 14k in the previous year.

Any good podcast recommandations out there, English or French? I'm up for fictions (e.g. Night Vale presents) and documentaries mostly (e.g. Darknet diaries, Nouvelles écoutes, Binge Audio). I'm quite curious and open to any topics as long as the conversations are not endless ☺️

Il a chanter Macron. Il regagne donc 450 points de respect. (Il reste cependant à -6434 points)

I'm looking for a little bit more work! 🔊🎵 I did SFX for Venba, Eternights and more! I wrote the music for Six Ages 2. Lost Your Marbles and NDA (poke me about it!) My work has been nominate for stuff, I have a cute cat AND I'm a top 10 player of Slay the Spire. So really, an all around person

Whoa. This release date trailer for FANTASIAN is pretty damn excellent at showing you why it's worth your consideration. www.youtube.com/watch?v=ok9J...
