Cannot say enough good things about the vholume demo OST. An absolutely perfect complement to the game, I feel like I could drown in it www.youtube.com/watch?v=4bYm...

I've been running an indie games studio for 15 years now, and it felt like a good time to boil down what I've learned into 4 pieces of advice: www.pentadact.com/2026-01-08-1... I hope it's of use, not least because goddamn I forgot how long blog posts take to write.

*hearing about my friend's EX-GF* oh dude i'm so sorry i didnt realise you had meter

forgive me father for I have blogged simulacrum.pika.page/posts/but-th...

There's something very satisfying about looking at a giant monolith of constants. It's surprising how quickly the amount of constants can balloon even with a low-scope character controller (this one only has jumping and underwater states)

Little late on this but WOW rhythm doctor 1.0 was so good. Absolutely incredible experience, in general the way RD handles tutorialisation of new elements is just best in class. Such a great finale too

Hmm not sure whether to make the particles fade out gradually or just vanish instantly. What do you think looks better? #gamedev

Rolled credits on Ghostrunner 2. It feels like a game that got too big for its own good - the collectibles, the hub conversations, the ""environmental puzzles"" all feel like they're there to break up the pacing between fights, but none of them hold a candle to the quality of the combat segments

why is escapism so hard to escape

THE RISE OF END TIMES FASCISM My first major piece of the new Trump era, co-written with @astra.bsky.social. The governing ideology of the far right has become a monstrous, supremacist survivalism. Our task is to build a movement strong enough to stop them. www.theguardian.com/us-news/ng-i...

Katana ZERO DLC Still coming. Still free.

1000xResist is on humble choice this month PLAY ITTTTTT

Holy fuck it's happening katana zero dlc is real

if you see this quote a game with a 10/10 soundtrack dustforce is a game that plays a delicate balancing act. in one hand it presents you with expressive speedy platforming, in the other hand a warm, cozy haven welcoming you to slow down and explore its hidden corners. this soundtrack OOZES coze

This entire article is great but the "games aren't art, they're a medium that can be used to make art" tidbit is brilliant and I wish I had heard it years earlier

We made a small momentum based platformer inspired by N! Play it in your browser here :D quzx-qreations.itch.io/fishbowlball...

i wrote something about This Place for @404media.co. please read it, and then log off. 💗

Thread of RDJ Clearly variants

I consistently underestimate how much screen transitions can make your game feel more continuous #gamedev

Guys, I think Knower's onto us 🥶 #1000XRESIST

As per usual, the new Kagurabachi chapter was insanely good

2025 will be the year I finish my game. This time for real. promise

Just finished the final season of Suits, what a phenomenal show and amazing finale. Beautiful sendoff to most of the cast, there were a few snubs but given the length of S9 I can understand. Now there's that classic void in my heart when a magical thing is finished and I don't know how to fill it 😭

is it just me or are the spambot follows getting wayyyyy worse :|

Never made a clipreel style montage before, one thing that I underestimated was how difficult it is to have cuts flow smoothly between one another (especially in a movement shooter) www.youtube.com/watch?v=AeNZ...

We WILL be broadcasting our wrapped to the 0 ppl who care

never in a million years will you be where I'm at

Jay Eazy if he was also a boxer: Call me Mr Clock Festival I got hella hands

the factorio dlc has been absolutely devastating to my sense of time management, not sure I'll ever be able to get work done again I'm cooked

To me lots of game design decisions feel like they can be traced back to individual layers of foundation building to a final whole, but synergistic mechanics/skillsets are like those self-supporting popsicle structures where every stick has to already be in place for it to stand. How do yall do it??

Using the Shoryuken as intended by Capcom

I just fought theseus' overwatch squad not a single player from the original team remained at the end of the game 😭😭😭
