Well, hi! Done with the photo batch from @berlingamescene.bsky.social #TalkAndPlay 52. If you're attended or are just curious, you can find all the goods up here. (As always, sharing is caring, kthxbye.) flic.kr/s/aHBqjCvkQc

It's time for MOAR RIFFS

Listening to some info nuggets by Ian Berman at #talkandppay on the sound design of @despelote.game and the way they recorded natural audio bits in Quito.

OH FLICK! Flick Shot Rogues is out RIGHT NOW! Grab it now and get a release 10% discount: store.steampowered.com/app/2427450/... The island awaits your trickshots! #indiegame #gamedev #steamgame

Sweet replacement since Despelote is such a neat game. Will be around for the usual 📸🥷 hijinks. See ya in a bit.

I really love how this one came out. "Fantasy synthwave" was the initial concept and it may not be exactly that, but definitely feels like its own thing.

Relevant. youtu.be/U8lJRcUeEMs

You know it to be true.

Started to go through older SD cards and stumbled across this 2022 #sunset oldie. flic.kr/s/aHBqjAodfi

Coming up to the end of the fest, last chance to nab Mars Vice at 35% off. Don't forget we have a demo to tease you with and that wishlisting & reposting is free but helps!

As usual, good stuff from Ian. I'd describe it as ... Hülsbeckian with some juicy riffs?

What. @freejsf.paintbucket.de hogging the #gamescomONL spotlight as usual while niche titles like COD Black Ops 7 could have used a bit more exposure. Just great.

Another message from our DUNGEON MASTER: We are looking for a publisher - let it be known and spread the word. And tell others! We have the mystery smell! #gamescom2025 #dungeon #dungeonnovel #visualnovel #dungeonsanddragons #indiegames #indiedev #narrativeames #adventure

Wish the room hadn't become available for obvious reasons, but anyhoo. Berlin #indiedev, here's your opportunity to join the best of co-working spaces.

Usually delighted to see a photo I took pop up somewhere. Not this time. 😑 First Studio Fizbin, now this ... Fingers crossed for everyone to bounce back from this swiftly and enormously.

Hi. Me again with some sunset mood I captured the other day. Exciting, I know. flic.kr/s/aHBqjAodfi

Please sign this petition to oppose censorship from payment processors and extremists! It's made and supported by female and gender-marginalised people working in games. Collective Shout does not speak for us. They can't silence us. We will continue to stand up for freedom of expression in games.

These goons seem vaguely familiar. 🤔 P.S.: Woot!

Going through some older snapshots and stumbled across another sweet #sunset / cloud sight I had the other day. 😙 flic.kr/s/aHBqjAodfi

A juicy Kreuzberg #sunset I got to see the other day. Good ol' Wiener Str. flic.kr/s/aHsjqJJnXn

In these dark times it's more important than ever that I strive to be a pillar of education and source of useful facts for my peers and colleagues.

Just some doggos zipping by. 🐕 flic.kr/s/aHsjqJJnXn

Been a hot minute since I added something to my Berlin album, so enjoy this random Saftladen Berlin moment. 😙 flic.kr/s/aHsjqJJnXn

I don't sleep too well during hot summer nights, but it does yield the occasional ethereal 3am sight. 😬 flic.kr/s/aHBqjAodfi

Do recommend!

Lil' #raincloud rolling in about 2 hours ago. 🤗 flic.kr/s/aHBqjAodfi

This photo of Thomas and @fahps.bsky.social turned 10 this year. Just a random fact on top of the recommendation to get their new game for roughly 90% of the price of a döner kebap in Berlin these days. 😙 #indiedev

Recently stumbled across older data and realized that 1) next month it'll be a decade (!) since the @saftladen.bsky.social celebrated its opening and 2) and I had never really published the goods. Without further ado: enjoy younger/more naive versions of people you may know. flic.kr/s/aHBqjCiZZ1 1/2

Hanging with the cool @saftladen.bsky.social folks, listening to today's guest Bill Guschwan talk about his time at Apple, 3DO, and PlayStation. Feeling pretty old right now.

I wrote a bit about this for PC Gamer! It's a WILD game. There's time travel, climate collapse, existential navel-gazing, and FMV podcasts about game design. All controlled through minigolf.

G'day, ye mortals. I used that A Maze photo editing momentum to also burn through that batch of snapshots I took at @berlingamescene.bsky.social #TalkAndPlay last week. Hoozah. 💪 Up here: flic.kr/s/aHBqjChA6w Enjoy and feel free to share! 🤗 1/2

Y'all, check this out! You can explore and battle in the world of #Towerborne this week for... free! 🤗

It's always insane to see how much an #indiegame develops. I can hardly believe that this is what Crownbreakers looked like 2023 and what it looks like now... (obligatory wishlist link: shorturl.at/SinB9)

Here we go: the final batch of photos I took at this year's @amazefest.bsky.social! If you're up for some Saturday impressions, you can find them all here: flic.kr/s/aHBqjChiiH #amazeberlin #amaze2025 #amazefest 1/3

Had the opportunity to play this a few times in the past, and it's nice to see how it's coming along. 😙

".. made by a first-time solo-developer [...]. With the help of nine of his friends, he's built..." Yup, checks out.

Jens acing it as usual. 👩‍🍳💋🤌

Idling around at #talkandplay and listening to @ahoymehearties.bsky.social's presentation.

Had a fairly productive weekend, so the final @amazefest.bsky.social photo batch isn't too far off. I'll leave ya with a little moment of "Wait, where do I know you from?" --> "Oh that's YOU!". Unscripted, and very, very #amazeberlin. #amaze2025

For the first week of Pride month, Mars Vice is 25% off! If you haven't checked it out already, we've a really queer game cast with our lead character, Dax, being a big bi trans guy. Support some queer dev's by having a gander at the link! store.steampowered.com/app/1886910/...

New "Featured Projects" section on my recently reinstated homepage: www.anjinanhut.com/featured/ A solid overview of what sort of experiences I can bring to your team. Open for jobs in Germany or remote from Germany. Game director, art director, team lead, product lead, game design and art, senior.

See ya there, goons. 😘📷

Done at last: plenty of vibes & moments from @amazefest.bsky.social Friday. Enjoy! (And feel free to pass on word in case you spotted someone you know.) flic.kr/s/aHBqjCgrxr #amazeberlin #amaze2025 1/2

Today is the last day of the Steam sale. Vampire Therapist is a great way to dip your toes into the waters of therapy. It's a great primer even if you've already ascended beyond human desires and fears, like the Buddha. It's even better if you haven't!

Hear, hear, fellow Berlin-Brandenburg #gamedev peeps.
