Lil trip to Birmingham to see this renowned, unstoppable machine and catch up with awesome @limitbreak.co.uk crew with @studioanisa.bsky.social and @jttg.bsky.social (Also took a photo of the big bull...)

Evening stream again, slightly earlier at 7pm BST (6 GMT) tomorrow (Thursday). Come see me try and jam the new doorway procedure into the actual rooms. www.twitch.tv/ga5p0d3

Well this looks joyously satisfying

Forgot to share last weeks stream video. Number 7, improving the doorway trim and logic. www.youtube.com/watch?v=kreO... #ProcGen #GameDev

It's that time of week where you get a glimpse into this, some might say, idiotic self build, barn conversion with no relevant skills or experience. I say, give this a watch and hit like because it makes my wife happy 🙏 youtu.be/67QbXjkgaOg

Just watched this channel 4 interview and fuck it, I'm joining the green party. Refreshing, clear answers even when faced with some intentionally bad-faith questions 👏👏👏 www.youtube.com/watch?v=1Ksg...

GIVEAWAY📢 Show us YOUR DOG🫵 Win a physical Switch copy of Fights in Tight Spaces, a Steam key of the DLC, & an Art Print! Retweet and share a picture of your dog* to be in for our K9 Division competition! *Don’t have a dog? We’ll accept anything dog adjacent, be creative! 1/2

This premature winter has hit my off-grid solar setup right where it hurts. Had plans on beefing things up before the short days really kick in but looks like I'm going to have to accelerate that 😬

Love art so fucked up there's no way ai could even

Got an awesome #IndieDev game you wanna pitch but not sure how it all works? 📢Pitch Up! 🗺️4th November, Bristol, UK 💜Organised by indies for indies (me, @ashleygwinnell.bsky.social & @lyndyb.bsky.social ) 🙏Enabled by @silverliningint.bsky.social 👉 forms.gle/6ya2g78kARVv... 👈

🎮The games industry is full of people driving accessibility. 🏆The Scope Awards are open & I'd love to see us represented. ♿Nominate one of the many brilliant champions making games & workplaces more inclusive: 🔗 www.scope.org.uk/awards

Yes, Wales! 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿💪 😂 www.walesonline.co.uk/news/wales-n...

At Limit Break, we believe true allyship is an ongoing practice, and it's so rewarding to see our participants embrace the challenge of becoming better mentors and advocates. A huge thank you to everyone who has attended any of our Allyship Training sessions! #Mentoring #Training

Saturday morning after an insane couple of weeks. Only one thing for it... Watching Back to the future 😎

UK #IndieDevs, the astonishingly attractive team that brought you IMPACT! Indie Games (Me, @lyndyb.bsky.social and @ashleygwinnell.bsky.social) are working on another thing to help support getting more awesome indie games made. More info on Monday 👀

This is the good stuff. Staying on target, experimenting and following the signals. Indie marketing done right 👏👏👏

It was a good run, but after 44+ years, I now need reading glasses. On a completely unrelated note 👀, I really appreciated the accessibility options in Still Wakes The Deep recently. Thank you @thechineseroom.co.uk for the big text options (and great game!) 🤓

I'm about to have my first eye test in several years and am pretty confident I'm about to become a fully fledged member of the visually impaired community. Wish me luck! 🤓

Goodest of vibes at the inaugural Bristol Games Marketers Meetup! If you're in/near Brizzle doing games marketing/pr/community/social we'll be doing this again soon! @opalink.bsky.social @emmakpark.bsky.social @ashleygwinnell.bsky.social @baggygruff.bsky.social @pelloki.bsky.social

🤔Morning pondering: If you weren't busy torturing yourself making games, and you were guaranteed not to fail, what IRL, non-AI-able job/business would you do?

Latest #BarnLife video is up. Give it a like and make my wife happy: youtu.be/N1umCPLYos8

So, Silksingers, What's the verdict? Enjoying it? How's the difficulty?

That wedding rave track in Andor went surprisingly hard. Good stuff!

Great stream today, noodling with floor pattern generation. A few friendly faces in the chat, with some thought provoking questions. We touched on the "randomness vs richness" aspect of procedural generation. Subscribe/video links in replies. #ProcGen #UnrealEngine #GameDev #Apparance

🗓️Tomorrow I’m delivering my Steam Store Masterclass for @intogames.bsky.social. 💪I’ve been building this since June & I’m proud of how it will help devs understand & optimise their Steam pages like pros. 👇Still time to book a place: www.intogames.courses/course/steam...

Here's a nice talk by @perky.bsky.social on the process of making 2D animated trailers!

#ProcGen streaming again today at 1pm BST (12 GMT). More work on the floor/ceiling patterened fill. Join me for some chill procedural noodling with Apparance in #Unreal. www.twitch.tv/ga5p0d3

Someone did it 😅 (kind of, they just announced they weren't changing their date) and it landed them 400+ wishlists. More educated take from Chris Z: howtomarketagame.com/2025/09/03/h...

It's been a while. Glad to be announcing a new game, and happy that it is something experimental and weird: a tiny, tense, turn-based strategy game about merging units into spectacular combinations, and then watching them evaporate thousands of bugs. store.steampowered.com/app/2396130/...

We need to tax wealth not work. Why? Because usually no matter how hard you work, the compound interest on huge wealth grows much faster than your wages + the rich use this passive income to buy all the assets. Someone made a game to show this: therichdont.work

I chatted with @freakingcoolindies.com about the process of working with a game trailer editor and how to make it as smooth as possible!

If I had a non-metroidvania game that was launch-ready, I'd probably post a white-text-on-black-background image announcing a change of release date TO the same day as Silksong. For the lols and attention. (bit late now tho)

A quick thing about wishlist conversion: Your lifetime conversion is likely to be higher than your launch conversion due to people buying it on sale over time. You may convert 10% at launch, but be prepared for less. 1/3

This is the perfect blend of nostalgia + aesthetic + newness to tickle my wishlist

I know so many of you would kick ass at this. I also know several of you will qualify yourselves out before even applying, HMU if you need a hype guy to tell you why you ought to go for it. I also-also feel for the hiring manager who has to choose from so much amazing talent currently available 😥

This and No Man's Sky hit max CCUs this week. Gamers working through their indie piles of shame have seemingly reached 2017 🙌

🗓️On Friday this week I'm delivering a 3hrs masterclass on Steam Store Page Wizardry. 💪Join me for an interactive session where we will look at how to optimise your store like a pro.

Searched my photos for "rainbow" and spotted an odd one out...

Built some doors from scratch for the water shed (a shed to house our water filtration system and pump). Latest #BarnLife video just dropped 👀 youtu.be/Kt--UNpLLQE

New side quest unlocked! Been approved to plant a small woodland on our land. Sure it'll take 20+ years but I am excite!

One of my favourite questions to ask people is for their definition of success. @readgraves.com absolutely nails his answer here, love it 👇 "You finish it. You ship it. You let go. You move on."

Possible causes of your problems. It’s a diagram that (sadly) still seems relevant in 2025, so reposting a year and a bit on.

"Witcher 3 writer..." 💭 ah, that's nice for them "...has Iggy Pop..." 💭 woah, that's unexpected "...voicing a dog..." 💭 haha, wild "...DJ" 💭 WTF, where's the wishlist button?!

Come learn some procedural generation, live now!

Why did nobody tell me NMS is now here on Bsky?! Also, you can now get out of your ship in space and float around, making this game my fully featured nightmare sim 😱 And the beat goes on 👏👏👏

*Standing ovation for Ellen* 👏👏👏 Across all industries, CEOs and boards have collectively obliterated any notion of employee loyalty by being so self-serving. Leadership is about serving and creating a better life for your people, not making folks with already more money than can be spent richer

No one told me you needed a week post-gamescom to recover from gamescom.

I didn't make it to any of the consumer halls at Gamescom except a brief tour of the indie arena. Were there any UK indies exhibiting? There was just one game exhibiting on the Ukie stand which felt lacking compared to other regional B2B areas 🤔

A previous #BarnLife vid summarizing our first 6 months has over 250k views 🤯 It's just a hobby and doesn't get much attention, so that was a surprise. Latest video just dropped, or click through to the pinned channel vid for the 6 month update youtu.be/cYlOVdQIkKE

I'll be speaking at AdventureX in November! My talk is titled 'How to position your game like a pro' where I'll be breaking down tangible ways that can help you articulate exactly what makes your game special to the right target audience. www.adventurexpo.org/schedule
