Changed some code again and this time I accidentally removed fighting from the fighting game. #indiedev #gamemaker #fightinggame

That magical moment when you test your game after spending hours cleaning up the code. #indiedev #gamemaker

I just released an animated font! You can get it as a Game Maker package for easy implementation in your game, or as standalone .ttf fonts. Check it out on astrobardgames.itch.io/wiggly-boily #font #gamedev #gameasset #gamemaker

Decided to seriously upgrade GFM's Training Mode. A lot of these features are extremely useful understand moves more deeply. But surprisingly, they've been useful for development too! The frame meter especially already helped me find multiple bugs. #gamemaker #indiegame #gamedev

Creating some background characters for my city. Pushed the numbers as high as I reasonably could. It's probably too distracting for a real match, but it looks surprisingly cool! #indiedev #indiegame #gamemaker #fightinggame

The Amazing Crackpots Club 1.0 is out on Steam! t.co/Rye23WdrG4 This game has taken over my entire life these past 8 years and it's hard to believe it's finally done. It's been a crazy ride. I just hope that people can find as much fun with it as I had while making it #indiedev #indiegame #gamemaker

Happy new year! 2026 will be the year for Generic Fighter Maybe! To show off some of the progress from the last few months, here's a full match between 2 of the new characters: Fuluglugli, the generic Zoner, and Glorbolgo, the generic Rushdown! youtu.be/Km8KLSu4xO0 #fightinggame #gamemaker

Obviously, this is amazing BUT the thing I love most, is that it's directly poking fun at the desire/fetish to overanimate overlapping action & smears. Asking someone of James Baxter's calibre to *intentionally* do this (as well as mess up the spacing on a bounce) is funny in the nerdiest way.

“try water fox or ice weasel” try chill penguin. install flame mammoth. you just download bubble crab. literally just use boomer kuwanger. sting chameleon has a search bar, use it to find toxic seahorse.

The Best Indie Games Winter Showcase is TOMORROW! Tuesday, 2nd December 2025, 8AM Pacific Notifications on! youtu.be/u94QwcNCjvU #BIGWinterShowcase

Working on a new stage background! It might not look like it, but there's absolutely no 3D elements in here, it's all 2D parallax scrolling thrown in-between 3 textured triangle strips. #indiedev #gamemaker #fightinggame

A surprising part about making a fighting game is that combos tend to be things I discover, rather than things I specifically design. I still make adjustments of course, but being able to say "You can do that?!" in my own game has been really fun so far! #gamemaker #indiedev #fgc

Just a couple weeks ago I was wondering if it was too OP to let the grappler combo into one of his special grabs. Now I tried to let him combo into super from that same grab and it's the most satisfying thing ever and I can't stop help #indiegame #indiedev #fightinggame

A lot of video-game publishers spend hundreds of millions of dollars chasing after "realistic graphics" and "massive open-worlds" when what players really want is just a shitload of weird little guys

If you're an indie developer, you should hang this screenshot on your wall and use it as inspiration to never give up
