After years of believing I'd be obese for the rest of my life, and then getting sick of it and putting in the efforts to turn my life around, it finally happened today; my BMI is now below 30. I actually beat obesity. 🥹 And it's only the beginning!!

I’ve learnt that only hyperfocus can keep me from disappointing others. Sometimes.

Post a female character you love. Not video game related, but I love Weird Barbie, she's punk as fuck.

It's super kitschy but I really want to make a game eventually where you can go to clubs that have "virtual concerts" like they did in Omikron: The Nomad Soul. It's not a popular opinion but I thought that was a cool feature. Hell, I'll sing myself if nobody will, idgaf.

I love that I'm on BOTH lists. It's actually amazing lmao. Also, goes to show that no matter what you say or do, people will label you all sorts of shit. None of this matters.

If you're here for boomer shooter content, I have a starter pack for you bsky.app/starter-pack...

Ana decided to call out payment processors and their unilateral response was attempting to fuck up her life and that should be bigger news than it is as of now

Just a heads-up for y'all; the new Vine is going to be a digital slaughterhouse for training material. If something looks too good to be true, it probably is.

this is the most lore doom has ever needed

- So what would you like for Christmas? - Oh, you know, I'm not difficult, there's just this one small thing I was thinking of...

I slept on Breath of the Wild for years and finally started playing it a week ago. And damn, Nintendo clearly invested everything they had to make it. It's almost frustrating because it's too good; Most devs can't pull that off. I fear it gave gamers a false sense of how easy it is to make a game.

Remember that short horror game from 2019 where you play a haunted multiplayer fps? They made a full commercial game out of it! Definitely worth a look, check it out! (Also they got taken down on Steam, most likely a fraudulent dmca, show them some love!) papercookies.itch.io/no-players-o...

Random person who plays indie games, you are the most important cog in an indie game's success. Most gamers don't know or care that indies exist.... unless a friend tells them. Our games succeed because you tell other people you liked our game. Word of mouth is the best marketing there is.

I had an appointment in an hour, and wanted to play a game on one screen and have the time on the other so I wouldn't miss it, but Linux Mint doesn't come with a clock app. So I spent the entire hour making my own. I literally did the XKCD comic thing... xkcd.com/196/

I'm so glad that they finally revived the Steam Machine; it was ahead of its time back in the days, but with the giant improvements they made to SteamOS and Proton, it definitely stands a chance! If they price it at roughly the same as a Steam Deck, I'm sure it'll do great.

Attention Indie Devs! I just need 15 seconds ... of your game footage! A lot of people jumped on the 15s video trend, so I thought it would be cool to make a compilation to help indies get some visibility. The anti-spam key is "kook". lonewulfstudio.com/indieshowcas...

Am I the only one who's just purely, absolutely incapable of putting in more than 20 hours of actual work per week? Like, I see normies do 40 hours a week all the time, and I tried for years, and it just doesn't happen. Not complaining, I'm just different, but I wonder if it's common.

that’s what I’ve been saaaayying maaan

...a team that doesn't struggle to make ends meet.

Really nice test of a low poly Ridge Racer running in full 3D on the GBA. From Gustavo Valiente's RR project: gvaliente.itch.io/rr-project

A'ight, let me give it another try.

We're currently 60% off as part of the animal fest!! Just look at what players are saying feel stupid => s.team/a/1679210

In the current economy, crappy jobs that feel like hell are the norm. But it shouldn't be. If you have a passion and you'd see yourself doing nothing else, don't be afraid to follow it. Do what it takes to stay alive, but make sure to craft a life for yourself that you love and are proud of.

29 long years have passed since I founded the emulation archive, Zophar's Domain, on 11.9.96. To this very day, the site still stands as a testament to an era that never actually disappeared but continues to live in the hearts of retrogamers all over the word. Emulation Forever!

Now with sound (🎵: Good night, see you soon - SimCity SNES)

dragon quest 1 is in the air lately, so please enjoy this old blog exploring the development of one of my favorite relationships with a jrpg world map tunditur-unda.neocities.org/posts/2020-0...

Spread the word; the Rockstar C-suite are scum. If you have to play GTA 6, yar-har-fiddle-de-dee it. Don't give a penny to this company.

Valve is not doing manual curation anytime soon, but this new algorithm seems promising. I hope it delivers as much as they seem to think it will.

The forbidden spruce beer.

This fucks. I love it. youtu.be/7GeCq1qwqjc

You know, I really looked up to GDC when I started out as an indie dev. Now I don't think all the money in the world would convince me to attend, I would hate it there.

If you aren't seeing skeets from some of your fave people, they might have been labeled "Rude" by bsky mods. Idk what they are thinking, I don't need a mommy to tell me who to be buddies with. Anyway, go into Settings > moderation > bluesky moderation (advanced) and turn Rude off.

Despite the shame of my terrible performance, I swallowed my pride and watched Sean play the #Jamsepticeye winners. I think my top mistakes were; 1. Making all of my assets on the spot, 2. Having too big a scope, 3. Not joining a team. I don't do jams often enough, I played myself.

I actually bought COD 4 on Steam when it was on sale a long time ago and NEVER touched it. Should I try it out? 🤔

As Bluesky's general functionality continues to improve, there are times you may find it difficult to search for the content you need. So as a public service announcement here's the video clip you are trying to find to post when discussing the death of Dick Cheney today apnews.com/article/dick...

Thanks to everyones support, DreadXP and I were able to donate $12,500 CAD to the Red Door Family Shelter. Thank you deeply for caring about my game and using it as a vehicle to do some good. its still available for free - with the option to donate - on vileisbanned.com

Hi there Bluesky! -- let's introduce ourselves :3 We're dotmeow, a queer-run community project to register the gTLD .meow. The profits of this gTLD will go to community causes, turning every domain into queer community support, especially focusing on trans projects and issues.

This is literally the plot of Zardoz. ...damn. I gotta grow a moustache and find myself a red speedo before it all blows up.

Since I am too sick to write a lengthy article today, here's a often-overlooked piece of mine that you all should read. docseuss.medium.com/as-writers-w...

أنا اسمي زهران ممدان وعم رشّح حالي لأكون العمدة الجديد في مدينة نيويورك

It’s his day.

It's recently come to my attention that someone made a fake UZDoom website. DO NOT CLICK IT! The only official website for UZDoom is ZDoom dot org and the ONLY official place to get future UZDoom downloads would be the official UZDoom Github page! Stay safe out there y'all [Boosts appreciated]

Good talk about the ridiculousness of Steam's economy. Games only sell when they're on sale, no matter what the full price is. Pro-tip; When selling your game on Steam, think of what would be a fair price if there was no such thing as sales, then set your price to twice as much.

Happy Halloween! For this Halloween, I'm dressing up as a struggling but passionate indie game dev! It comes with cans of Monster Ultra White, bags under the eyes, and a pile of publishing deal rejection letters. 🥫🫩📄
