The Steam demo for The Button Effect is *almost* ready for play-testing! If you like first-person puzzlers and want to help out, let me know? (the actual demo launch is planned for late May) 🧩 #screenshotsaturday #puzzlegame #indiegame

Thank you for making such an awesome YT short about my game @mattwilsoncss.bsky.social! Totally made my day, it’s very well put together. I also loved the waterside shot at the end :) I hope you had fun playing!

Quick update: I’m working on adding localization support to Chroma Zero, and some wonderful and talented discord members are leaning in to work on the various translations.

My favorite Next Fest demo so far is The Art of Reflection. Puzzles, exploration, and a REALLY nice movement system. If you like #metroidbrania games you should definitely check it out! The maniac solo-dev even built a custom engine for it. store.steampowered.com/app/2290770/...

Today is THE LAST DAY TO APPLY! Share this with a dev that has a very very sugoi game 💥 #indiedev #indiegames

10 years ago this week, I started work on Tunic. The game wouldn't have been the success it was without LGBTQ+ folks, both devs and players. So, I'm matching donations to Trans Lifeline. If you can spare $5 (or more!) reply with your donation and I'll X2 it. Thank you! 💕 give.translifeline.org

It's taken a couple years, but chrgfx version 3 is now released. This is a tool for working with tile-based graphics used in many retro game machines. If you have developed a retro game editor or other graphics tool, this will likely be useful for you! github.com/drojaazu/chr...

First 100 steam reviews are in, and 99 are positive! The (long...) road to 500 reviews begins. I'm not sure it'll get there anytime soon, since it's a pretty niche game, but at least the audience I made it for seems to be enjoying it.

ad/key // Back to streams after a fun time at the Like a Dragon event yesterday. We're checking out @ekorz.bsky.social's Chroma Zero! Live Now 👉 www.twitch.tv/nikoheart

Hi new folks! If you finished Chroma Zero, please consider leaving a Steam Review -- this early in the game's life, every single one is quite impactful. If you haven't yet finished, and need a hint or small nudge, our discord is discord.gg/n7agSngfJV

Chroma Zero is out, today! If you like the niche of open-world adventure/mystery/puzzle in the spirit of Outer Wilds, Anti-chamber, Tunic, I hope you'll give it a shot because I made it just for you. store.steampowered.com/app/3121470/...

@dicey.bsky.social my weird little game with much rgb and several hexagons comes out next week. Can I send you a key?

@suddendesu.bsky.social glad to see you over here

Good idea? Bad idea? I am thinking of making a 'Gameplay' trailer for Steam that's comprised of reaction footage from my play-testers. It's a puzzle/mystery so I don't want to spoil anything. Anyone done this? Example: www.youtube.com/watch?v=PZt1... #solodev #indiegamedev
