The Web Design Museum released 44 classic Cartoon Network Flash games from the early 2000s, now playable in the browser. Play them here: www.webdesignmuseum.org/flash-game-e...

I can’t even go on the godot asset library without it being a minefield of potentially vibe coded garbage… Why are people becoming allergic to learning or being creative or being curious? why does the joys of existing have to be optimised away? I don’t get it…

Where we started with our turtle-themed Wordle game on the left, where we are today on the right. We're in the process of adding one more feature to this game before we move on to the next one 📖 Still 100% free to play forever on lofigaminglounge.com! #indiedev #gamedev

Hey :) I make 100% No AI websites and webshops for artists and small business owners with my husband. If you have questions about how to protect your IP, protect your art, and protect your websites and storefronts from AI scraping - leave a comment or DM 🌼

If a game launches in the woods, does it make a sound? We thought we'd make it official with actual release notes! Expect to see regular updates on lofigaminglounge.com! Each note links to a full overview on our Patreon page, where we're cooking up our next minor release... #indiedev #gamedev

What Messenger app was your go to back in the day?

After some deliberation, we planned on launching with 1 banner ad instead of 2. Then we launched and before we started the process, we gave it more thought. It was hard to reconcile with our goal of being open and free. So we decided today to drop all ads altogether. No tracking, no ads.

Very excited to push this update

I should be able to delete a file while a program is using it. The program will just have to figure it out. Who is in charge here?

Just wanna post this

this is when i felt like, "we're living in the future."

if the bassist looks like this you're gonna die in that pit

Completely surreal to me: I posted about our website with free web games and simple login features. Some people actually visited it. And up to now we've even gotten some bug reports. And I've used those reports to fix bugs! Am I dreaming? People like what we made? #indiedev #gamedev

i don't know how to parody this anymore

Why do "share in DM"s now require a caption? The only reason I use this feature is to share posts with my wife, which was already 3 clicks and honestly slow to do (read: a slog). Now I have to type something too before I can hit send??? Where's the manager? I want to speak to the bluesky manager.

Should we track hints in high scores? When we build a feature or work on a game, usability is always top of mind. We want you to have fun and sometimes a bad experience gets in the way. So we allow one guaranteed hint per round to give you the best chance of success. #gamedev #indiedev

Here's how to support human artists! 🎨

trying to post through it rn

Here's the characters you can choose between on Lo-fi Gaming Lounge (you can mix and match the faces too) You gotta sign up to unlock this but signing up is free forever, and we don't do any tracking nonsense either :-) #gamedev

We should remember part of humanity is also generating complete nonsense. I'd like to see AI wake up at 1am with a vision of a sitcom about Dracula who has two pomeranians, one liberal and one conservative, with a theme song that includes the lyric "it's a two cup teacup politics dust up."

So glad the top 1% plugged a “lying more than half of the time” machine into all of the internet

Me when reviewing code

every British guy between the ages of 38 and 52 has intense, borderline troubling nostalgia for some insanely unplayable looking Amiga game called like “Bonky’s Quest”

Welp. The internet had a nice run. Some outlets have lost over 90% of their traffic since the "AI" summaries rolled out. "...the four worst-hit publications [now] get less monthly web traffic combined than the r/ChatGPT subreddit gets on its own."

Art is from #Dragon #Quest #Nintendo #Handbook #artist was Akira Toriyama. I love the whimsical feel of OG JPN art for #DQ1, I wonder if #Horii had another artist lined up & how #Toriyama put an image to Horii's #Ideas. #dragonwarrior #nes #retrogaming #manuel #art #fantasy #gameart #dragonquest

my daughter really captured my essence in this portrait of me “at work”

I made this MRI shader using a 2D texture array in Godot 🙂 #godot #indiedev #gamedev

They've lost the 9yos

Things were better when computer was in room. Now everywhere is computer. This is bad. Computer should never have escaped room.

Just a reminder to check for your name in this list of books that OpenAI trained from. If your name is there, they probably owe you several thousand dollars. OpenAI cried that if everyone eligible author files, the company will go bankrupt, so I'm alerting every author I have ever spoken to.
