It's so funny how we all have a device with capabilities such as "Essentially Infinite Knowledge" and "More Art Than You can Ever Appreciate" but the people who make the device and its software only ever want us to use the "Brain Disintegrator 3000" and "Involuntary Mass Surveillance Node" functions

Explore a haunted movie studio. Learn the fates of the tormented souls bound to it. End a 50-year curse inscribed in blood and celluloid. KINOPHOBIA, my first piece of noncommercial interactive fiction in eight years, is now available to play. brunodias.itch.io/kinophobia

it is always so fun working on high areas of the map and fine tuning the beautiful vistas you see from up top :) - work in progress! (game is ABYSS X ZERO for those who do not know! an upcoming low-poly 3D metroidvania, developed by me and @ironfairy.bsky.social) #gamedev #lowpoly #indiegame

If you're going to put ads on your already not-cheap device, at least have the decency to leave a backdoor that enables jailbreaking through the ads like Amazon did, good job! Glad to finally be able to jailbreak my kindle, if you have an unmodded kindle mod it right now before they patch it again!

Ah yes, Octoberch 21st

Simplesmente impossível achar um teclado com switch tátil (brown, aqua etc) ABNT2 full size né. O único que existe eu tenho e os switches que vem nele são uma merda de durabilidade. Vou ter que me render ao switch linear e talvez até largar o ABNT2 mesmo se eu quiser um teclado decente né.

ABYSS X ZERO just won the WINGS Award at SXSW Sydney!! Thank you so much for this opportunity! @wingsfund.me @sxswsydney.com 🤗❤️ And thank you everyone who played our demo! I'm happy you all enjoyed it, and we're working hard to make ABYSS X ZERO the best game it can be when it launches! #gamedev

Not happy that as per the latest firefox update they added an "AI Chatbot" option to the right click menu. But at least they had the decency of making one of the three options within the menu be "Remove AI Chatbot", which, incredibly, does exactly that. Best AI button I've ever clicked!

SEGUINTE SEUS PUTO VOU LANÇAR MEU PRIMEIRO VIDEO JOGO ISSO MESMO EUZINHO, TAVINHOS, VOU LANÇAR UM JOGO DE VIDEOGAME (mentira, eu só fiz o design narrativo, roteiro e a tradução, e uns quebra galho disso e daquilo - o jogo foi resultado de muito trampo de todo nosso time na @longhathouse.com )

I know I can't beat the peak aesthetics of Mega Man Legends, but I'm doing the best I can! (game is ABYSS X ZERO for those unaware! Coming out... eventually) #gamedev #lowpoly

Recently had the opportunity to build 3 demos to demonstrate the power of game feel!

What I've learned playing highly anticipated sequels of beloved and very successful indie games that released last month is: Women can sprint

Ugly and stinky

❌Proper tiling and masking for the UI sprites ✔️Convoluted ass optical illusion using a 3D camera (Trust me, this is somehow way easier than all the other options I've tried, and more optimized too) #gamedev #indiegame #lowpoly #madewithunity

This is the greatest thing I've ever seen in my life.

nostalgia is a prison. 'IP' is where creativity goes to die. there are infinite new games in the ether waiting to be discovered. bury your dead and fix your hearts

I'm sometimes slightly annoyed with how the word "leitmotif" kinda semantically drifted into just meaning the same as "motif", especially in video game music video essays. But I'm always glad to see people enthusiastically talk about their favorite soundtracks and why and how they are awesome.

the trans music archive has announced a residency for 2 trans bands/artists at their recording studio in NY, plus a $1000 stipend www.transmusicarchive.org/residency

Completely out of the blue Youtube recommended to me this incredible arrangement of Milton Nascimento's ever relevant Fé Cega Faca Amolada. You should check Filó Machado out right now! www.youtube.com/watch?v=l470...

ABISMADA de ver tanta gente cis aqui caindo em DUAS propagandas de direita ao mesmo tempo 1) a "amiga trans" do atirador é literalmente uma fake news criada pelo trump 2) incel to trans pipeline é um MEME criado por incels para alimentar retórica radfem e usar pessoas trans como bode espiatório

Gente vamos pensar um segundinho antes de cair em dogwhistle terf e sair reproduzindo transfobia disfarçada de "preocupação" por favor. Obrigada.

bati o olho rápido na thumbnail achei que o xandão tava sendo juiz de magic também

recovering from being very depressed these last few weeks, so progress has been slow (also working on stuff I can't show yet) So here's an art repost from ABYSS X ZERO, with a few adjustments on models + animations since last time! Music by @ironfairy.bsky.social #gamedev #indiegame #lowpoly #axz

Very comfy vibes feat. pom

Thats it, my final goal. I became a lowpoly carpenter.

*pauline voice* DEEEEEEEE KAAAAAAAY!! ta taraaa tu tuuuu

Uma coisa que acho que pessoas cis não tem noção: O peso de ver TODO DIA metade do mundo defendendo que pessoas como você não tenham direitos, sejam criminalizadas ou mortas E ainda engolir transfobia casual de família e amigos pra não ser a chata do rolê Dificil demais aguentar e ficar numa boa

I have finally, after nearly 20 years of amateur networking, bought a kit of pass-through RJ45 connectors and a matching crimper. Let's see if they're literally satan and will burn my house down or if they will allow me to transcend time itself, which, according to reddit, are the 2 only options.

this video is so sweet and fun!! <3 www.youtube.com/watch?v=OFmf...

Working on different models/animations for item chests in ABYSS X ZERO, to better suit the context of what you'll find inside and the level they are in. (yes, even the last one is an item chest, technically) Now we just need a proper item collect jingle... #gamedev #lowpoly #madewithunity #axz

I played some more Tunic. Found a weird website after a LOT more scribbling. My head still hurts.

Unsighted (Steam) is $7.99 on Humble buff.ly/RomNUQM US PSN buff.ly/L3h5TKc Deck verified

The idea that 'AI can speed up dev cycles' would require a premise that dev cycles are long because people are taking forever to make assets (so you could replace them with shoddy slop and it'd go faster), which you could only believe is true if you've never actually tried to make a video game

Completely baffled by the fact the .gif is still the most compatible end-user format for small duration inline videos. I love the idea of .apng and .webp, and they are both so much more optimized but no... no piece of software will take anything but the insanely inefficient 40-year-old format.

Pipistrello and the Cursed Yoyo just hit Overwhelmingly Positive on Steam with 98% approval 😲 Huge thanks, everyone! Here’s another track breakdown: Old Rattalia Town. Looks like it turned into a fan favorite hah. Bossa Nova GBA ftw 🎶

Eu e a @ironfairy.bsky.social estaremos amanhã, 14:30, no EAI Jogos, que acontece no IBRAWORK! Minha primeira vez no EAI Jogos então estou bem ansiosa <3 Mais informações aqui: www.sympla.com.br/evento/eai-j...

Cool, Bluesky just randomly decided I'm a kid and won't let me change my moderation settings anymore. So if something is marked as "adult content" I simply cannot see it, doesn't even have the button to show.

Just finished Tunic. It's 4AM, I have a notebook full of scribbles and my brain hurts. Absolute 10/10

Therapist: Wide Steam isn't real and it can't hurt you GamingOnLinux:

The saga continues. Bought a 3rd party joycon to be my dedicated MIDI controller controller, hall effect sticks already included! I think I might prefer this to a regular pitch wheel. Here's a sample of an ABYSS X ZERO tune I'm making with this joycon! #axz #vgm

coding the behavior for these bat enemies! it was a lot of fun integrating a flying enemy to our combat system can't have dungeons without bats! (yes you can parry the bats) #gamedev #indiegame #axz #madewithunity #lowpoly

Ah yes, our two cats: -a lazy tiger that thinks my computer is a tree, and -literally lucifer, angry that he was cast out of heaven (he isn't allowed to press the keys on @tianipixel.bsky.social's keyboard)
