Brother let me know when you find a poem by someone *without* autism

it's interesting how easily identifiable AI/crypto posts are, even with no mention of AI or crypto by name. Always some vaguely positive combination of numbers, acronyms, and tech buzzwords like "hyped for the BTL-5.5 update! Using this with Gribby-0.9 will really streamline my content pipeline"

Is there anything to the idea that metroidvanias and roguelikes - 2 of the biggest genres in indie games - seem to be shifting in radically opposing directions?

Working on some dialogue for my gritty robot crime movie, lemme know what you think of this: "you son of a glitch! Your mother board's as good as fried!"

Thinking LLMs could gain sentience because their output resembles human speech is like thinking a portrait might come to life if it's painted realistically enough

I feel like we need a different feedback outlet for steam players, because 99% of negative reviews I see boil down to "the game was too hard for me, here are eight paragraphs on why that's an objective failing." Maybe keep the thumbs up, thumbs down, and add a third "too hard" option?

Really thorough and insightful review of tomb of the bloodletter!

I'm not done with it yet but here's my review of @ethangoldreyer.bsky.social 's Tomb of the Bloodletter. A recommendation from me unless you hate learning words. One of the better things I've played this year and comes very close to being right at the top of the pile. backloggd.com/u/Psientolog...

Finally completed a run on Tomb of the Bloodletter. If you like word games and roguelikes it's a great time. Not a perfect game but (was) under a fiver (I think it's maybe £6 now), has lots of replayability and gets your brain working. Having a good vocabulary helps but there's still tricks to it.

Very early WIP, but working on this desert island survival/tetromino game #indiedev #gamedev

My word game roguelike tomb of the bloodletter is sitting at 87 reviews! Can we get to 100? I bet something crazy would happen if we did... #indiedev #gamedev #indiegame store.steampowered.com/app/3531630/...

Anti-War protest tonight at 6 pm at the White House. Spread the word!

In my games, when players press pause I actually increase the speed at which they experience reality by around 4,000%, thus making the game appear frozen!

A hand-crafted interactive political allegory written in the author's mother tongue. One intricate vignette about 19 national birds, a red planet and freedom. My upcoming game "Kansallislintuja; punaisessa planeetassa." can now be wishlisted on Steam! (link below)

This is still on sale! Would love to hear more peoples' opinions on it! #indiedev #gamedev #roguelike

The DLSS 5 thing is kind of interesting, because big-budget games have been blindly striving for gratuitous realism for decades now. I feel like there's partial responsibility on AAA studios for instilling (or at the very least failing to push against) that "most real" = "most good"

Reminder that my word-game deckbuilder Tomb of the Bloodletter is out now, and I made this cool commercial for it! Check it out if you haven't yet! #indiegame #gamedev #indiedev www.youtube.com/watch?v=wbbO... store.steampowered.com/app/3531630/...

Might as well throw my game into the ring! Tomb of the Bloodletter is a word game roguelike that strays very intentionally from the Balatro formula! It's got 75 reviews but I'd love to see that number go up! #indiedev #indiegame #gamedev store.steampowered.com/app/3531630/...

Hello... This looks like exactly my sort of tomb, can't wait to take a closer look!

I picked up Tomb of the Bloodletter (which rules and you should pick it up, even at full price), and apparently I'm sufficiently #SoloDev -pilled to be surprised when I saw that <5% of people actually watched the credits. That's the first thing I do when I get a new indie lol...

💰THE OUTERSLOTH CONTRACT 💰 We just released the FULL contract and terms that all our games sign! We hope this challenges the status quo of what you see out there. In a nutshell: 💸 Pre-recoup 50/50 💸 Post-recoup 15/85 💸 Terms after 7 years www.innersloth.com/the-outerslo...

#10: Tomb of the Bloodletter is a really cute little roguelite/word game hybrid that has you assembling words to attack your opponents. You have a set of magicks assigned to letters with effects that deal damage or heal based on vowels, uncommon letters, length of the word, etc. Really fun idea.

Check this game out, it's awesome! Plus, you can buy it bundled with my game Tomb of the Bloodletter! #indiegame

Interesting negative review in which they claim my game "can be good"(?) but my real hangup is the censored swear. Any guesses what that could be? #indiedev #indiegame #gamedev
