Pumpkin Patch Spider (preclaimed adopt) 🎃🕸

Are you or someone you know skipping GDC (or considering doing so) because of worries about coming to the US/San Francisco in the current environment? If so, I want to hear from you for a piece. DM me here or kyle DOT orland AT arstechnica DOT com. Please spread the word

Speech bubbles aren't limited to players/certain NPCs anymore. 100% there now. #screenshotsaturday

I am mad. Even if they didn't listen to the feedback, please keep posting your stuff here. You art is powerful and inspires many. It might never please everybody, even so, don't be stopped, don't be censored. Post and post and post, I want to see all creativity here. All of it. SFW. NSFW.

After implementing a "jump to location" command, the cutscene system is ~97% where of where I want it to be. Also, new character select where everyone fits, but has placeholder text. #indiedev #gamedev #peddlersbetweenpulsars

Is there a way in Godot 4.5 to adjust how the Path2Ds are shown? They were way thicker and visible 4.4. Can't quite see them with any of my tiles turned on. Left is 4.5, right is 4.4. #godot #godotengine

Not sure how to clean it, but that spider pot's unfairly cute.

OK, I can't say shit, but if you're a game developer that's the type to stop playing new games mid-session to do more gamedev, FINISH IT. Yeah, whatever. I know you haven't touched a videogame in months. No, don't roll your eyes at me young person!!!!!! That's it. I'm closing in on your location.

Seeing an update for NMS on Switch2: OOH FINALLY, CUSTOM SHIPS! "3 hours, 32 minutes left" ...Custom ships tomorrow!

More pathetic little prats you might wanna block:

We don’t want AI slop. Stop sending us AI slop. Stop wasting our time with AI slop. It doesn’t sound good. It’s antithetical to our core values. You didn’t even make it. Knock it off.

Beginning of COVID: Lots of time, lots of pixels. Now: Less time, less pixels. No really, I got faster and more comfy with tinier images.

Mary, Mary, quite contrary Why all the codebase bloat? The asset packs and dirty hacks And method calls I forgot I wrote

We’ve found an amazing team of artists who can create the first official set of Bugboy poster art, but we currently don't have the funds. No pressure at all, but we updated our #Crowdfunding goal to help bring our #gamedev dream, to life 🥰 ko-fi.com/ratpackdigital #indiedev #SupportIndieDev

Oops. That's one way to put in too much space. #indiedev

Gave shops more control on their items' positions so they could fit more stuff. Then realized Godot centers Sprites2Ds by default, which made sprites with odd dimensions jitter. So now jitters are gone, shops have multiple rows for wares, AND rugs/counter have y-sorting. #indiegame #gamedev

Arachnid folk enemies #pixelart #ドット絵

Some animated MtG fanart. I really should make a white, blue and black card to complete the set, but there are still so many delicious green cards I want to make...how to decide 🤔 #pixelart

Woke up to quite the update on this. I had been in contact with Payment Cloud about getting their service and they waited until now to hit me with the image below. Again, stringing me along instead of being upfront. They had seen my website multiple times before this.

Playing Hollow Knight, but the biggest reason I may not get most the endings is cause I lost Grimmchild. I'm sad about it, but not enough to replay the game + redo the palace.

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/...

Sword Meta Knight (True)

Some small additions and an update to an existing tileset. I didn't think I was getting better at #pixelart cause while working on my game - I chose this style for speed purposes. But I looked at the first building I did and thought "wow, I was struggling with this back then." #screenshotsaturday

USELESS CUBE approaches! what will you do? #pixelart #comic #Sweetland

Updated another shop interior. Probably should go through each of the shopkeepers's dialogue now that they have furniture. The Shop is probably the most complicated object in the game, and it's still missing features.

I guess no fountain pen supplies for a while, especially paper.

7 years later, Valve's Proton has been an incredible game-changer for Linux #Proton #Linux #SteamOS #SteamDeck #Steam #Valve

Me: A bios update will prolly fix my computer issues. I'll update the kernel and OS too. Mint upgrader: Remember when you installed ALL the WIP drivers to play Starfield on linux? I can't figure your packages out anymore. Imma break. Me: ...Guess I'll wipe the HD too. The issues seem gone though!

Honestly uncanny that I may indeed have got the poorly™ drawn™ teal™ blob™ sketch™ thing™ almost exactly back in 2023

Well, I’m not far from 40 and I also support this terminology.

Finally got so tired of staring at the only interior tileset I had, so I made another one (old one is the grey one in the first picture.) Got a little more motivated to put down the building interiors after that. #peddlersbetweenpulsars #indiedev #gamedev

Finished up the top half of the Cemetery! Sorry it's been so long since I've posted. I honestly have been so focused on game design that I forgot to art! Please take this single art as a token of my apology! Happy Saturday ya'll! #pixelart #indiedev #gameboy #graveyard

I mainly post the pretty stuff here, but 9/15 planets are white rects with letters + relevant NPCs sitting on another white rect off screen. But they exist! #solodev #indiedev #gamedev

#MidnightAsphalt has a Steam page and a release window! If you like the look of it, please do wishlist: store.steampowered.com/app/3317730/... I don't want to play this card often but reposts are highly appreciated #IndieGame #IndieDev #Action #Driving #CarChase #Trailer #MajorUpdate #GodotEngine

#Pixelart 'Another World' 320x256 32 colors (#amiga OCS palette) #pixel #demoscene #landscape #retrogame #nomanssky #SF #clouds

Was talking about black holes with my sibling, then realized my game has no planned planets with rings. I got so excited about all the cool possibilities, I completely forgot about planetary rings. So after some notes-checking, one planet will have a ring.

Commission for chicken_patty! If you want your own, my vgen is open! I do Minecraft skins too :) linktr.ee/ekvitki #pixelart #vgen #commission #space #aseprite #ドット絵

I just wanted a sacred scarab/dung beetle inspired beetle

Hello, I've been quiet b/c I've been baking bread and getting stuck on water tiles. There's still cleanup/refining to do, but I think I got the idea now. #pixelart #screenshotsaturday

HUGE NEWS I got contacted by a reporter who wants to do a piece about the MASSIVE push back against payment processors We ARE making a difference Keep calling + emailing! Keep ↻💬♡ Don't let our voices be silenced!

[WIP] Here's what the UI should look like in NOKOMA 1.10. OH that big shuffle button wants to be pressed! 🤩 #indiegame #indiedev #gamedev #solodev #Godot #mobilegame #puzzlegame #cozy

I know we're upset about itch, but they're not the only ones Payment processors harassed companies bc of a 1,000 email hate campaign But we can EASILY top 1,000! I prewrote an email + got the contact info - you just have to send! ↻💬♡ to boost We CAN make a difference 💕 #itch #censorship 1/🧵

I know emotions are running high, but please try and think about this: Itch mentioned Collective Shout by NAME. That is intentional -- most PR statements would not. Sign the ACLU petition. Do good instead of yelling at the victims. action.aclu.org/petition/mas...

A reminder that as messily as this is being handled, Itch aren't to blame for this wave of bans. They're probably direct takedown orders from corporate payment processors like Visa, Mastercard, Paypal, etc forwarded on from anti-porn organizations. They're trying to do damage as fast as they can.

so itchio has shadowbanned any games tagged with 'nsfw', 'adult', or 'erotic' so they don't show up in searches, and several devs have reported that their r18 games have been removed from the site with no warning
