I am once again pointing out the queer fox girl platformer is 30% off on steam

ok well. that's a good enough pause point for the day. this is looking quite lovely if i do say so myself :3 #EniBlockGame #GameDev #ProcGen 🎮

Give folks their flowers No, I mean right now. Go tell someone you loved their work right now. They're on social media just say it, it has never been easier "They know how much people love--" no they don't go say it right now to a composer or artist or game dev or writer or anyone AAAAAAAHHHHHHHHH

What's a rogue-a-like? I have no idea, but this game is not one.

This the most dollar store attempt at a fire enchantment rune I've ever seen.

Hey! Guess who got to review Final Fantasy Tactics: The Ivalice Chronicles for @pcgamer.com ? :D Come read all about it here! www.pcgamer.com/games/strate...

When you find a new item, there's now particle effects to help communicate how special it is! Left to right, we have (common, no VFX), uncommon, rare, boss, and special. #indiedev #indiegame

Eye of the Commando got accepted into the indie showcase at MAGFest! Wow. I... I need to do some things 🛠 Super exciting! Haven't been to MAGFest in over a decade, it'll be great to go back.

Wait did he really say Tylenol causes autism? The exacorp that owns Tylenol has bones in the earth core-deep, can you imagine the legal machinery lurching to life at this moment? Or has the white house become so powerful that Tylenol is going to be reengineered to, somehow, cause autism?

Just activated the Steam store page for Cyclopean II: The Dreamlands! #CRPG #Lovecraft #GameDev store.steampowered.com/app/3998510/...

Ayyy Xenotilt is out on the PS5 now! Way to go @flarb.com store.playstation.com/en-us/produc...

Happy Sunday, everybody. You should spend some time between now and kickoff listening to our Week 3 preview on The Athletic Football Show. Deep dives on PHI-LAR and DET-BAL, and thoughts on about 8 more games from the weekend. Full show: pod.fo/e/32d8a3

Just noticed that Fight'N Rage is down to just $2 again. Probably my favourite arcade brawler of the past decade. Yes, better than Streets Of Rage 4. It has a lot of mechanical similarities, but a heavily branching, replayable story mode, tons of unlockables and ULTRA high skill ceiling.

For all my fellow gamedevs here who see sportsball as 22 mens collapsing into a pile at random -- four minute video, don't need to know much about the sport, easy to follow along, and Derrik makes it quite clear how much game goes into this game. Good stuff @qbklass.bsky.social, make more!

oh shiiiiiiiit

Thank you for hosting #TurnBasedThursday! Tales of Kathay is a turn-based role-playing game set in a rich, living world that's entirely procedural and deeply simulated.

Comments like this make my day, and I promise you, every creator out there on Youtube, doing blogs, doing Twitch? They all appreciate and love shit like this. Hype them up, tell them you love their work. It helps. Truly.

One last bump for this article before the end of the week. The only thing better than a good old game is a weird, rough, and underplayed old game: kimimithegameeatingshemonster.com/2025/09/10/g...

December will be Dungeonmans' 11th Mansiversary and I am not going to create a new sprite for the Headmaster statue each year. Instead I created a balloon font and dynamic numbers and now the Academy correctly celebrates any year up to a uint from 2014. Doing my part for game preservation.

If standing up against fascism is what cost me my dream job I held for 10 years, I would do it again 100x stronger

Time for another Sunday Stream, more pixel art dailies, then a bit more work on the Last Laugh Game Jam, releasing the jam game on itchio today, then if we have enough time, restarting work on Project Loop, link below: www.twitch.tv/steelsoldier

Is there any overlap between gamedev bluesky and sportsball bluesky? Or is it just me? Cheering for the Dolphins and trying to make a living selling indie games has a lot in common...

Now accepting applications for six Balboa weeks open to all levels, from beginners through masters. Link in comments.

Congrats to @sega-west.bsky.social and @lizardcube.bsky.social on the launch of SHINOBI: Art of Vengeance!🎉 To celebrate, NINJA GAIDEN: Ragebound and SHINOBI: Art of Vengeance are joining forces in an epic Steam bundle!⚔️ Save 10%, and get double the ninjas, double the thrill: http://bit.ly/45R3Su5

Ran a seven year Numenera campaign and am a big Cypher fan. Always happy to see them cooking up new stuff.

This is a great game, even without a minigun.

The Moon Theme is a great song to play when the plane is landing. It would be even better if it would magically montage you into getting to baggage claim, getting your bags, getting a ride to the hotel, and end right at the part where you flop down happily on the hotel bed.

Battle Poultry is real.

Freedom isn't free, but this week it's 33% off! Eye of the Commando is on sale during Steam's Third Person Shooter Fest, all week! "Contra, but RPG?" Sure! Etrian Odyssey with a minigun? Why not? store.steampowered.com/app/3016480/... #indiedev #gamedev #godot

Since people are asking for traditional roguelike recommendations, here's mine: -Dungeons of Dredmor: lighthearted intro to the genre -One Way Heroics: Also a lighthearted intro but from Japan -DCSS: Free, complex & beginner friendly -ToME: My favorite, has great combat, secrets & difficulty options

Wrapped up a seven year long Numenera campaign yesterday. In person, around the same table, save for the year and change when the pandemic did not allow that. Telling character/tabletop stories is like telling people your dreams; it doesn't work, you had to be there, etc. But it was something.

to get a little personal, one of the reasons i'm glad i'm no longer in the games industry is that i found it difficult to not take statements like "the dev team doesn't care" or "they clearly actually hate this game" personally nobody loves this game more than we do. nobody cared more than us.

this came to me in a dream

Cyclopean II is getting underway. I want to get a store page up to hopefully start getting wishlists. Then I plan to spend another week or so on my Star Explorers update before going into full time Cyclopean II development. #TurnBasedThursday

Apparently science has advanced and there are Two ways to Heroics 🤔 hmmmm

Two and half days later & I still don't have words So proud and happy for our team So thankful to the WSFS voters So honored to be in this cohort of finalists and past winners Live and drink 🚀🚀

See what I did there? <3 Grats @cavesofqud.com, now continue your Heinlienesque journey by getting Verhoeven to make the movie!

It would be great if the time spent really trying to figure out how TF to make an idea work came with a receipt. I mean, yes, sure, "the working idea" is very good proof, but along the way... maybe contractors should bill by Yards Stared instead of hours.

I did just add beach balls to Dungeonmans. But no horses -- all the Headsmens are specifically labeled as Horseless. Hmmm.

Show me your quick getaway vehicle!

Fast-paced and turn-based - the return of a roguelike legend! *Jupiter Hell Classic* packs procedural levels, explosive weapons, and brutal tactical combat. Early Access starts NOW! store.steampowered.com/app/3126530/...

This is the content I crave here on bluesky. More ideas and possibilities, creativity, what if, what could be, etc. ty @unormal.bsky.social @prinnyforever.bsky.social

Jupiter Hell Classic is out on Steam now. A commercial rebrand of the fangame formerly known as Doom: The Roguelike, aka DRL. DRL is still out there, free, but if you want a slightly polished up version and to throw the developer a few bones, this is how you do it.
