My first game is at its lowest ever price this winter (-33%) So if you like grounded & chill survival games about floating about in space and building a scrappy ship, you might like this :) store.steampowered.com/app/1670810/...

“Oblivion is the best-looking game I have ever seen in my life”

Aaah my first ever interview! Thanks to @piratesoftware.live for the opportunity! (As part of #indiecember) youtu.be/_40NFKgbo2I

I've been listening to this new song I'm going to add to the game on loop for a few hours now and it's not annoying me yet, I think that's a good sign.

Modding Oblivion (badly) at 8, making levels (also badly) in LittleBigPlanet the year after, followed by discovering GameMaker & UE3 a bit later. It was inevitable for me really.

I'm having fun making a video game.

This Christmas, give a gift that can change lives. ✨ Across the UK, thousands of trans+ people face years-long waitlists and barriers to the care they need. We’re asking you to donate to our Christmas fundraiser. Even £5 can make a difference. anne.health/christmas/ #CareForXmas

my secret transgender project… @annehealthcare.bsky.social

Huge. And I meet more and more over 50s too who will be voting for the Green Party as well! Join.greenparty.org.uk

This feels very intentional to funnel those that would’ve supported ‘your party’ to the greens. Just cuz you can’t be fragmented else reform win. They’ve got to take the L for the greater good.

In an interview with GQ, Todd Howard suggests that a TES6 shadowdrop is a possibility. He also mentions us elsewhere in it! GQ: "You shadow-dropped Oblivion: Remastered in April. Could you actually do that with The Elder Scrolls 6?" TH: "You might say that was a test run. It worked out well."

I forgot all about Dar Jee

i can't get any work done 😭 this man put all his skill points in willpower

*nirnroot sound intensifies*

finally pulled my decorations out

We couldn’t be happier to say that… it’s our turn now! We’re officially hosting this week’s #TurnBasedThursday 🎲 If you’re a developer – show us your turn-based games in the comments and tag other devs! If you’re a fan of the genre – share your love for them in this thread! Now… your move.

It's nice when people get it. store.steampowered.com/app/3634710/...

What’s with all these bugs in the vegetables this year?

I forgot one of the steam capsule images I uploaded was look-up-'Arfs-nose. I should really get some proper art done...

ATTENTION BRITAIN! 🇬🇧 The UK now has a petition to STOP CENSORSHIP by MasterCard and VISA of legal products! This joins the Australian and Canadian petitions that are gaining momentum. Come on, let's get these signed! And spread the word! The UK petition: petition.parliament.uk/signatures/1...

Anyone who knows youtube music copyright stuff for games - a song in my game triggers this on my account: Does this mean that this track is flagged and is poison to content creators, or is youtube giving it the all clear?

Looks like you need to get a credit card now to fully use Steam. Can the UK not for just one second?

Finally got around to uploading the demo to @itch.io There's an itch/balls joke in there somewhere I'm sure.. stubbings.itch.io/dwarrf-a-pin...

Still waiting for someone to make an idle/clicker fishing game called 'clickbait'...

If you're enjoying the demo, please consider leaving a review on the demo's Steam page. Apparently that's something you can do now 🤔

This is on my docket for the first #tinyteams stream tonight! @tinyteamsfest.bsky.social! Along with Shrink Rooms, Pool of Madness & Bots are Stupid!

4 hours until the demo releases 👀

DWARRF: A Pinball Roguelike is officially selected to be a part of Tiny Teams this year! The demo will be released alongside #TinyTeams2025 so you can play all the new boards soon - such as this sewer one :) Demo Link - store.steampowered.com/app/3803120/... @tinyteamsfest.bsky.social

Hell yeah, we've got 2 pinball roguelikes coming to Tiny Teams now!

Anyone want to be no.1000? 👀 store.steampowered.com/app/3634710/...

Currently on the phone with Visa Instead of starting with a complaint, I approached this as a Confused American Consumer who doesn't understand why they can't buy things off a website they use The call center rep immediately asked if it was about Steam/itch (cont)

Advice for people calling Visa & MasterCard to complain about their censorship of sexual content ⬇️ The tldr is call at least twice on different days and keep them on the phone for longer.

Yikes, what is happening to the internet... (if anyone wants to contact me, discord @ in bio)

Who thought letting a weird cult censor the games industry was a good idea?

Hey - if you and your games have been affected by the censorship at Steam and Itch, please do get in touch. DM me here. Cheers.

How long is too long for an intro cutscene for a game? Do you want to see the ‘big bad’ or do you want their visuals as a surprise later in the game?

The stage of gamedev where you can stop writing systems and start using them <chefs' kiss>

Has anyone had DWARRF crash yet? Dealing with a strange and random crash from someone, but could easily be a hardware issue.

Tomorrow is Indie-Penance Day on Kotaku! If you have an indie game in development, or a recent release that's been ignored, email me: [email protected], with the subject line "INDIE PENANCE 2025". Please include a store link and a YT link (if possible). Rules next...

2 separate ad breaks during a song is unacceptable

It's time to bring back the Tomb Raider 2-3 menu system! I have fond memories of the menus in those games, did any other game use something similar - definitely not going to steal any ideas or anything...
