Needs a bit of optimization but the wraith is in all 4 levels! Just need to polish things up a bit then I can put out a demo update!(hopefully the last one before release!) #pico8 #gamedev #indiegamedev #indiegame #pixelart #umbragame

debugging the hunger mechanic in this game makes me feel lowkey sociopathic

early on in anodyne 1's life a puzzle game dev vocally quit the 8-bit maze. 13 years later a user review said the game was mid but they loved the 8 bit maze. people will have preferences for different parts of your game. that's why metacritic 70-80 is god's territory while metacritic 90 is sloptown

I feel like a lot of make-your-own-difficulty stuff is in part driven by devs being insecure about their own difficulty balancing. Cuz if you give players all these opt-out features, if a difficulty mode's poorly balanced then it's not on the devs, it's on the players for not using OP stuff

did you know? penguins are immune to explosions. 💥 #pixelart #indiegame #gamedev #platformer

🧒 Hey dad, what were games like when you were a kid? 👨 Magical. Big pixels. Big gameplay. And always a real challenge. 🕹️ Now you can relive that feeling with Trasmoz Legends by solo dev @volcanobytes.bsky.social. Retro is alive and well! 👾🔥 📢 Out now on all platforms! #Retro

this is horrifying. this is why they say death to america. because all we bring is death to their children and people

"Why do you hate Metacritic". I hate it when people try to use numbers to represent things that are not numbers. It offends me as a math person. We invented all these fancy ass representational structures. We have groups and fields and lattices. And you look at "Nier". And you say "this is a 7".

the first shiny pokemon i saw when i was a kid i assumed it was a glitch and hard reset my game even as a child, i assume something good happening to me was a mistake that needed to be corrected

today is more item work! i'm doing bottles of water and bottles first.

reis from my tiny book

last week i remembered that macOS lets you set your own icons and that *I* have the power to delegitimize the professionalism of the software that runs on my machine, so here's a thread of the 16 new icons i've made so far i really forgot how fun it was to just sit down and make art for myself :')

A perfect moment to get my font bundle (and push my goal to what, 200%?!) 💛 itch.io/s/158296/40-...

Rebecca Heineman @burgerbecky.bsky.social needs to be transfered by helicopter to a medical center where they can better treat her cancer, which means her gofundme needs $20k more. please give to support this trans game dev elder if you can!

just thought this looked kind of cool: snapping the rendered angle of physics objects to tau/16

Super Mario World has an extremely eclectic art style whereby many enemies are drawn in completely different ways. Development files reveal Mario went through many stylistic changes; it is possible that all the enemies were made to fit Mario, but at different points in time.

legitimately means so much to me that in an era where so many politicians are trying to present trans people as a losing issue no longer worth supporting, a candidate who has been vocally pro-trans his entire campaign wins

best encapsulation why everyone hates democrats despite trump being the spawn of satan
