Hello everyone! Recently I released demo of my roguelike Depth of Mind. I will be glad if you play and leave feedback. Thanks! store.steampowered.com/app/4054730/... #indiegames #gamedev #indiedev #godot #gameart

Spent the last few days working on a thumbnail for my game "Out of Chalk"! My first try at high-resolution art - turned out surprisingly neat, I think. The game is available on itch.io: justcore.itch.io/chalked-out #gamedev #indiegamedev #art #itchio

Someone posted a walkthrough of my game a few hours ago! It's the first time anyone's ever made a walkthrough of any of my games, so I consider it to be really cool, yeah! :D www.youtube.com/watch?v=1Fr0...

Renamed the game from "Chalked Out" to "Out of Chalk". The new name feels more memorable and seems to spark more curiosity. Thanks to a certain gamedev friend of mine for helping me decide ;)

Woah, I just got my very first donation tonight!! A whole dollar! :D

I just realized I managed to complete two Ludum Dare jams in a row for the first time, which is actually really inspiring for me. I often struggle to come up with ideas that excite me enough to push through all the hard work it takes to finish them, but it seems like I'm getting better at it.

Just released my #LudumDare58 game on @itch.io! It's a short experimental Sokoban with a touch of narrative about debts and black magic. Push spikes, solve puzzles, chalk pentagrams on the floor. You know, the usual stuff. Try it if you're curious! justcore.itch.io/chalked-out #IndieGamedev #LDJam

The type of pictures I want to post at 4 AM during Ludum Dare. It *is* 4 AM during Ludum Dare.

Let's go!

I keep adding events to Depth of Mind. I wanted actions to become a currency that can be exchanged for a reward, that's what happened. And dont forget to wishlist Depth of Mind: store.steampowered.com/app/3711100/... #WishlistWednesday #godot #gamedev #gameplay #indie #indiedev #roguelike

Making one game mechanic every week. Week 3: JRPG-style character controller. Moves in four directions, always walks a full tile - just like in classic JRPGs. Also animated that little guy for the demo :] #GameDev #IndieGameDev #IndieDev #ScreenshotSaturday

Woah he's holding me! #GameDev #IndieGameDev #PixelArt #Art #oc #DigitalArt #Furry #ドット絵

I've been drawing silly cat expressions all day. I regret nothing. #Art #PixelArt #GameDev #IndieGameDev

a friend of mine who's worked on a somewhat recent free multiplayer game says this about player feedback that I feel like is very astute hearing the feedback is frequently important but responding to it well almost never means just doing what the players say they want

I'm kinda tired of all these gray squares on my page. I think I'll finally draw some nice art soon :D

Making one game mechanic every week. Week 2: Deformable Terrain. Can be destroyed and filled back in. Marching squares generate the mesh. Learned some cool stuff. #GameDev #IndieGameDev #ScreenshotSaturday #OneGameMechanicEveryWeek

Ok, for the next week I think I'll make some "terraformable" mesh. I did some research - it involves so called marching squares. Sounds interesting.

It's Friday for me now, but I think I'll post the weekly mechanics on Saturdays from now on - it feels more convenient and logical this way.

Making one game mechanic every week! Week 1: physical object dragging and throwing. Tell me what I should try next. It would be great to have a list of cool ideas! #Gamedev #IndieGamedev #ScreenshotSaturday #OneGameMechanicEveryWeek

Finished a little jam game of mine. I had one week but spend half of the time discarding prototypes and juggling ideas. Got tired and made my very first game that I finished but didn't really like. You might want to check out: justcore.itch.io/rope-hat-cac... #gamedev #indiegamedev #gamejam

Take THIS you stupid wall >:((( #gamedev #gamejam #indiegamedev #unity

Yeah, the game jam goes as planned 😎 #gamedev #gamejam #indiegamedev

Misclicked on Aseprite today. The bottom right one is my favorite. #pixelart #pixel-art #art #gamedev #aseprite

Heya, devs! >:) I just finished coding my personal website. Follow the link below, click on that cute picture 50 times and see THE ULTIMATE EASTER EGG!!! It's funny, I promise!!! justcore.space 👈💪💦💦💦 #gamedev #indiegamedev #gamedeveloper #easteregg

The comment section under the previous post got cursed, and now I have a cake in my game.

@termegus.bsky.social, thanks for liking the cafe post btw :3

Made a chunking system! But no, not just a basic one - mine supports pooling, unlimited layers, any object type, and it's easy to move between projects! I guess I've basically made myself an infinite world builder package at this point #gamedev #indiegamedev #unity #proceduralgeneration #programming

Damn, no one liked the cafe post. Really, not even a pity emoji or something... Alright. I get it. I will not post food for you anymore.

Local cafe :>

It's been over a month since I released my game Green Tastes Funny on itch.io - and somehow it's still breathing! Must mean something! Seriously though, it's genuinely inspiring to see about five people playing it every day for a whole month! Thank you itch.io! #gamedev #indiegamedev #itchio

Coded a custom editor window to display all in-game content, but didn't really get why. All I basically did was add images next to the content names, lol #unity #gamedev #indiegamedev #existantialcrisis #unityeditor

Apparently my nightstand is now an indie game design studio. Need to do something about it though... #gamedev #indiegamedev

Alright, here are my #LudumDare57 results! It's cool to have received 93rd place overall, but honestly, I was hoping for a bit higher, haha. Anyway - lessons learned. The next #LudumDare will be MUCH COOLER! 💪💪💦💦💦

A couple of days ago I finished my game for #LudumDare! The game is about, well, mining weird rocks that are also kinda tasty, I guess?? Anyway, here is the thumbnail I've been making all day, and a link to the game. You should play it >:) justcore.itch.io/green-tastes... #indiegamedev #itchio

Some cool stuff in progress for #LudumDare! Trying to make something nice in time! #gamedev #indiegamedev #gamejam #screenshotsaturday

Just 20 days until #LudumDare 57! 😎 ...And it starts at 4 AM for me. Fine. I guess? 😳☕

Throwing a flashlight. Wait for it! #pixelart #gamedev #indiegamedev #indiedev #indiegame #unity #lighting #shadows #dithering #shaders

Poor 12 y.o. me had no idea

Alright, I finally added dithering to my custom renderer. Looks sick! #pixelart #pixel-art #gamedev #indiegamedev #indiedev #indiegame #game #unity #unity3d #shaders

Playing around with the graphics again #pixel-art #pixelart #gamedev #indiegamedev #indiedev #unity #shaders #game

😱😱 #programming

Found online. So real #c++ #programming #meme

Woah, turns out it looks way better with higher intensity🤩 I'll keep experimenting, so stay tuned! #gamedev #indiegamedev #indiedev #indiegame #pixelart

I'm finally applying everything I know about shaders from OpenGL to Unity, and it looks amazing! Here's a shader that pixelates the screen and snaps all colors to a predefined palette. The possibilities are endless from here on >;) #gamedev #indiegamedev #unity #unity3d #pixelart #shaders

Some progress in #C++ and #OpenGL! I made a custom Material class that lets me assign textures and control how objects react to light. Also, I've spent four hours integrating ImGUI, just for the sake of that silly window at the corner... yeah, sounds like me... #programming #gamedev #indiegamedev

A great game developer once told me, 'Never make your own engine.' Naturally, I did exactly that. Now, behold... my glorious cubes... hehe #gamedev #indiegamedev #cpp #c++ #programming #opengl #3d #3dgraphics

Finally gave the old, boring thumbnail for Stacked Foes a much-needed upgrade. Let’s see what the CTR has to say about the fresh new look, hehe >:3 #indiegamedev #gamedev #itchio #stackedfoes

My game was getting most of its views from the chess tag, so I decided to tweak the thumbnail a bit. Can you guess which one is the new version? #gamedev #indiegamedev #pixelart #itchio

Me irl #gamedesign #gamedev #meme

Some progress between 2021 and 2023! #pixelart
