They say billboard ads do work, but after 2,000 browser plays on itch and just one prospective client calling, Larry Stumps is reconsidering his ad spend. #billboards #ads #indiegames

Oh look, a Russian youtuber (1.7m subs) discovered my game organically! www.youtube.com/watch?v=FU8o... I don't understand a word, but - it seems the gameplay came natural for him, and - he can talk for almost 15 mins straight without pausing for a single breath #indiegames #gamemarketing

Gulp. In other news, I now own a local phone number in Lumber City, Georgia. #gamedev

Turns out, people were right about this whole hardware thing. My 2021 Thinkpad T15 with integrated Intel graphics isnt handling video editing too well :/

After all...why not? Why shouldn't I add a banjo mixtape to my game?!

Turns out the answer to "When will I ever use this type of math?" was "Video Games". cc: all teachers

I was down to three tickets on the kanban for my demo. Then came another round of playtests #gamedev

Sure wish I had one of these in real life :/ #gamedev #firewood

Oh, the joys of game audio design!

Goodbye, grey boxes. Hello, pink elephant! #gamedev

Oh no. Anyway... #gamedev

Clearly, this is not working as intended. Or is it...?!

A man has to wet his lips, what could possibly go wrong? #gamedev

Now, wood you look at this? Here's an axe-pert with some cutting-edge technology. Anyway, time to log off. #dadjokes #gamedev

Surely, this will never lead to any confusion, right?!

Holy worm, why did I not know about this game earlier?!

Trying to figure out the best legal/tax set-up for a multinational #indiedev team that's not incorporated (yet). Between Steam royalties, tax treaties, the EU corporations available, and Permanent Establishment risk, there's definitely an opportunity for a tax advisor specializing on this niche.

Alright, I'll play #PitchYaGame - You're a one-armed cook on a pirate ship - everything moves as the ship heaves and pitches with the waves - your crew needs to be fed before the battle begins - cut onions, cry your eyes out, butcher fish, throw around with veggies Coming 2026 - no Steam page yet :/

So, I made...uh, something. Game? Walking sim? Job sim? Critique of corporate culture? Provoker of existential dread? Introduction to Hole, Inc.'s vertical integration initiative? elschorscho.itch.io/holistic #indiedev #gamejam

Indie games, people. This mechanic is so obscure, I love it. The demo has been quite the experience. Also, just in time for me tackling the Short Range Certificate!

Oh, hello there. #gamejam #gamedev

Took work back up on my longer term project: You take control of a species of trees, evolving traits and adapting to changing climates. Trees are procedurally generated according to your choices. Added all four biomes and tile heights for a 2.5D feel. Yay #trees! #procgen #gamedev #indiegamedev
