Apologies to Robert Frost, but sometimes when you take the road less traveled, you end up in thrall to an ancient fungus god in the dark heart of the forest. It can happen.

#GameDev is all about coming up with creative solutions. Games are essentially "illusions" in the same sense that magic tricks are "illusions"; lots of behind the scenes trickery is happening to create a specific perceived result by the audience. #games #gaming #indiegames #indiegaming #indiedev

It's been 1 year since we released the Shroom and Gloom prototype!🎉 Created over 3 months, the prototype was created to asses the viability of turning Shroom and Gloom into a full game. Here's how it turned out, alongside the OG jam game made in 10 days: #gamedev #indiedev #gamedevelopment

This is so coooool! Innovative design like this gives me so much hope for the industry ❤️

Making a game by stacking of 1000s of hand illustrated layers, it's only natural that people demand to know what we see when we look at things from the side. Today we're happy to answer that question! #gamedev #indiedev #gamedevelopment

What happens when the player looks down?🍄✨🔮 Last week some behind the scenes footage of our game went viral. We got heaps of comments from people wondering if players could see between the thousands of hand drawn illustrations that make up our world. #gamedev #indiedev #indiegames #gamedevelopment

Made by @teamlazerbeam.bsky.social, this first-person roguelike deckbuilder plunges you into a hand-drawn world packed with monstrous mushroom dungeons. Build two decks to slash, roast, and combo your way through fungal foes and survive The Gloom! 🔗 Shroom and Gloom: steam.pm/app/3271280

Such a cool style!

*Finally* sat down for my first run in the Shroom and Gloom demo and aside from what might be the most endearing and simple opening tutorial instruction this game is so immersive. The 2D/3D presentation is perfect and I can't wait to play more. #indiedev #cardgame @teamlazerbeam.bsky.social

After three weeks in the prototyping oven, we've launched Dressmaker on itch! This is the most excited about a game that I've made that I've ever been and I don't think I've ever wanted a prototype to be a full game this much. I just hope enough of the rest of the world agrees. 😅

Our next game jam is on August 2nd at the Makers Massive in Cape Town! Sign up here

After a refreshing week of still playing video games like I didn't have a week off, I played the Shroom and Gloom demo from @teamlazerbeam.bsky.social‬ I played about 3 hours of the demo, and I am really enjoying it. Deckbuilding is fun, and the setting is great. Overall, fantastic demo.

After 6 months on Bsky we finally had our first (kinda) viral post this weekend! 💩Literally just 5 second of shaky phone footage of the Unity scene view of our game. 💀Bsky's video compression absolutely murdered the clip. And somehow, this is our 1st post to blew up on here. Why?

Number one baby! Excited to share that after the latest update our game made it back to the top of the new and popular, roguelike and card game tags on @itch.io! #gamedev #indiedev #gamedevelopment

Quick sneak peek at what our game look like in the Unity editor! #gamedev #indiedev
