I've been running an indie games studio for 15 years now, and it felt like a good time to boil down what I've learned into 4 pieces of advice: www.pentadact.com/2026-01-08-1... I hope it's of use, not least because goddamn I forgot how long blog posts take to write.

We pushed an update yesterday to #EyesOfHellfire that added player held candelabras to the game. These were slightly annoying to deal with, involving a little render magic and some brute force dumbness... mini 🧵 store.steampowered.com/news/app/172...
