Got three 7-win runs with @magic.wizards.com @mtgarena.com Selesnya Kona. Deck's great for Bo1; I think I wanna clean up the mana a bit - you need two white mana early. Also no reason for only 3 Evendo. Might cut 1 Seriema for something too. #MTGArena #MTG

Updated Smithy By Day Announcement Trailer! youtu.be/IWlm2brqhJw #indiegame #gamedev #simulationgame #Steam #UnrealEngine

Finally got 7 wins in @magic.wizards.com @mtgarena.com! (in Bronze LUL). I've never built drafting as a skill and wanna get better. I draft green + another color (and rare draft lmao). Might take it more seriously at some point and go back to in-person when I have free time. #MTGArena #MTG

5-0 with my version of Kampo's @magic.wizards.com Dimir Midrange. I think I'm taking out the last Sunset Saboteur for a 4th bat or 3rd Tidebinder and then the deck's probably perfect. Also 26 lands vs. 25 feels SO GOOD. Sideboarding is just 'put better cards in.' @mtgarena.com #MTGArena #MTG

We can neither confirm nor deny the existence of duck building mechanics in Smithy By Day at this time🦆 store.steampowered.com/app/3782130/... #indiegame #gamedev #simulationgame #Steam #UnrealEngine

NEW CAPSULE ART JUST DROPPED BAYBEEEEEE store.steampowered.com/app/3782130/... #indiegame #gamedev #simulationgame #Steam #UnrealEngine

Another year 100 achieved, this time with Stone Man. Mob is such a fun troop and I think they bugfixed Steel Coat. #indiegame #roguelike #Community #Steam #9kings

Hello gamers! I've found a cozy medieval game that I've really been enjoying and think y'all will like as well. If you like Kingdom Come Deliverance or survival crafters, I would HIGHLY recommend Medieval Dynasty steamcommunity.com/profiles/765... #simulationgame #community #Steam

New 9 Kings patch is awesome. I may have missed it, but I think they buffed/ bugfixed Greed's base. Having a lot of fun with it! #indiegame #roguelike #community #Steam

I had a blast doing it!

Awesome interview with @johnaljets.bsky.social! We talk about Smithy By Day and how every game is either a rhythm game or a puzzle game. youtu.be/07iM_lqrgYg?... #indiegame #gamedev #simulationgame #Steam #UnrealEngine

What the heck was @jotapon.bsky.social programming in the dark? store.steampowered.com/app/3782130/... #indiegame #gamedev #simulationgame #Steam #UnrealEngine

When you have a 124/124 and still lose next turn. Feels bad for the opponent. #MTGArena #MTG

VOD of the interview I did with @gamingcopywriter.bsky.social. It was such a great experience before, during and after the show. Check it out! www.twitch.tv/videos/25291... #indiegame #gamedev #community #Steam #UnrealEngine

Following up our last barrel-related post, here's a screenshot of many barrels! store.steampowered.com/app/3782130/... #indiegame #gamedev #simulationgame #Steam #UnrealEngine

Another live talk is coming at y'all, this time in the form of an interview! On Saturday, August 2, 2025 10:00 AM I will be interviewed live on twitch here twitch.tv/GamingCopywr.... Expect many more interviews soon™! #indiegame #gamedev #simulationgame #Steam #UnrealEngine

Since Steam is hosting its Racing Fest, Smithy By Day will now be a racing game! Next month, it'll be a rhythm game and who knows what's next!!! store.steampowered.com/app/3782130/... #indiegame #gamedev #community #Steam #UnrealEngine

Repost of the Dev Update #3, but this time on Steam! store.steampowered.com/news/app/378... #gamedev #community #Steam

Think I'm getting the hang of this reddit thing #gamedev #community #reddit

I'm SUPER SUPER excited for this one guys!

Happy Sunday gamers. Here's a shiny barrel for your consideration. store.steampowered.com/app/3782130/... #indiegame #gamedev #simulationgame #Steam #UnrealEngine

Dev Update #3 is out! www.youtube.com/watch?v=RGei... #indiegame #gamedev #simulationgame #Steam #UnrealEngine

Been having a lot of fun and success with @magic.wizards.com mono white tokens. Just messing around until the @mtgarena.com set rotation. #MTGArena #MTG

Hey indie game dev friends! Do you and your team have something you’re working on? No matter how small, give me a peep. Would love to do a very short “get to know” interview about you and your game!

Half day at work, so I get to catch up on some Smithy By Day work 😄 #indiegame #gamedev #community

A closeup of one of the weapon tables, with some very bright lighting hahaha. We've gone back and forth on designing arrows; should we do it 👀👀👀 store.steampowered.com/app/3782130/... #indiegame #gamedev #simulationgame #Steam #UnrealEngine

Another angle of Vonna the Mage and Avoro the Blacksmith chatting it up! store.steampowered.com/app/3782130/... #inidegame #gamedev #simulationgame #Steam #UnrealEngine

A bright display of some weapons you might be able to make in SBD store.steampowered.com/app/3782130/... #indiegame #gamedev #simulationgame #Steam #UnrealEngine

Discord call went great. @jotapon.bsky.social helped me min-max my microphone and next up will be improving my cam quality! I only spent about 30 minutes talking too, so short video coming out next weekend. Join the Discord: discord.gg/WdQWyhcb2q #community

REMINDER: SBD Discord call in 23.5 hours at 1:00 PM >>CENTRAL TIME.<< Be there, learn about all the gameplay you missed from the trailer, what we're up to and ask me anything! discord.gg/WdQWyhcb2q #indiegame #gamedev #simulationgame #community

Peeking in on a conversation between Avoro the Blacksmith and Vonna the Mage. store.steampowered.com/app/3782130/... #indiegame #gamedev #simulationgame #Steam #UnrealEngine

A higher res screencap of the main smithing area: hammer, anvil, furnace, water trough and more! store.steampowered.com/app/3782130/... #indiegame #gamedev #simulationgame #Steam #UnrealEngine

I super respect @vgdunkey.bsky.social and other content creators launching publishing studios. I hope this becomes more popular; people can aspire to make a game under their favorite YouTuber! www.youtube.com/watch?v=ckus... #gamedev #community

The lighting and shading stuff you can do in Unreal is so cool. Can't wait to see how the game looks in a few months. store.steampowered.com/app/3782130/... #indiegame #gamedev #simulationgame #Steam #UnrealEngine

There's no water in this well. I'll have to have a talk with the devs on this one👺 store.steampowered.com/app/3782130/... #indiegame #gamedev #simulationgame #Steam #UnrealEngine

I'm hosting a Discord AMA going over SBD's trailer and what we're up to. It will be Sunday, July 20 at 1:00 PM >>CENTRAL TIME<< Discord: discord.com/invite/WdQWy... Also, an article with more details: store.steampowered.com/news/app/378... #indiegame #gamedev #simulationgame #Steam #UnrealEngine

First try @mtgarena.com play-in with my version of @magic.wizards.com Izzet Cauldron. Gecko, Inti and Monument break the deck. Don't react, just be aggressive, trust!!! #MTGArena #MTG

Thanks again to @indiegameorigin.com for covering us, and also for 100 subs! She does great interviews and content guys; check her out. www.youtube.com/watch?v=jeuX... #indiegame #gamedev #simulationgame #Steam #UnrealEngine

We've come so far from the chibi concept art... but I still really like the art style; maybe it can still be somewhere in SBD🤔 #indiegame #gamedev #community #Steam #Unreal @nauticalsorbet.bsky.social

I'm really looking forward to @theindiestone.bsky.social's Project Zomboid (recent patches) & Space Engineers 2 going multiplayer. It's a great day to be a non AAA gamer😎 #community #Steam

A sample UI of the post-day screen. Tells you what materials and items you've made along with completed sales/ quests and what items you still need to make. store.steampowered.com/app/3782130/... #indiegame #gamedev #simulationgame #Steam #UnrealEngine

The amount of freedom and independence I have making SBD and the difference from my last jobs is insane and night-and-day. I love working on it, I love working with the team, and I love "managing" the community! #indiegame #gamedev #community #Steam #UnrealEngine

Paul Refereeno was such a great bit! This was one of @semicharli.bsky.social's favorite episodes.

@jotapon.bsky.social gave me the ability to take screenshots in-engine and built me a custom camera. Expect more quality screenshots like this after/before of Avoro the Blacksmith. store.steampowered.com/app/3782130/... #indiegame #gamedev #simulatiogame #Steam #UnrealEngine

Reposted the interview @indiegameorigin.com did of me. If you wanna learn about our game design & community management philosophies, or want to get into game dev or other passions, this video's for you! store.steampowered.com/news/app/378... #indiegame #gamedev #simulationgame #Steam #UnrealEngine

New Smithy By Day capsule art just dropped. Happy 4th of July gamers! #indiegame #gamedev #community #Steam #UnrealEngine

Survived 99 years in 9 Kings on Lord difficulty. My idea was to spam dispensers, get a wall and buff defenders as much as possible to stall. Also Mothership seems insane to stop units from passing through. #indiegame #roguelike #Community #Steam

Of all the capsules we made for the Steam page, I like the vertical one the most. Something about less background and the logo being under the characters instead of on the side makes me really happy and cozy. store.steampowered.com/app/3782130/... #indiegame #gamedev #simulationgame #Steam #Unreal

Worthwhile and high quality. Check it out!
