Wait heart machine's next project is being published by devolver? And they're laying off their staff weeks before release? I feel like a huge publisher with very new and shiny Ball x Pit money should be expected to ensure teams they work with remain intact, at least until launch, no?

Wow, this looks promising! Time for testing! https://store.steampowered.com/app/3531630 #gamedev #indiedev #steamdemo #freetoplay #newgame

I'm happy to announce that my word-game roguelite Tomb of the Bloodletter is now being published by indie.io! Be sure to wishlist the game and check out the demo before the full release in a few months! store.steampowered.com/app/3531630/... #gamedev #rougelike #indiedev

Every line of dialogue in silksong has this energy (this is a good thing)

I made this weird push your luck village builder for a game jam if anyone wants to try it out! Very far from finished but I think there's something here ethans-byproducts.itch.io/overcasters

They're calling it the most realistic inventory system of all time: the longer you get, the more room you have for shirts

I've trained an AI to eat my food and spend time with my family, allowing me to increase my daily walls-stared-at from 2 to 3

some kind of villager building game. No mechanics yet, just vibes #indiegame #indiedev

So many "creators" are acting like resisting the pull of the AI slop machine is some Herculean task, and it's starting to drive me insane. This shit didn't even exist a few years ago! How did you survive then??

I'm aiming to release my word game roguelike Tomb of the Bloodletter soon, and I'm looking for feedback! I've changed some of the game's core systems, so I'm especially interested in opinions from players familiar with the game #gamedev #indiedev #indiegame store.steampowered.com/app/3531630/...

Made this small strategy/card/puzzle game for a jam, forgot to say something about it. Curious to know what people think! Definitely unbalanced and bare bones but I think there's an interesting idea in there, and it's free! And playable in browser! ethans-byproducts.itch.io/miracularium

Had a dream where everyone was into this hot new fantasy movie called Aether: Into the Aegis

It's May and that means new demos in the Demo-club. This month we'll look at: Fogpiercer by @krystof-klestil.bsky.social Warlocks Maze by @teutonicgames.bsky.social Tomb of the Bloodletter by @ethangoldreyer.bsky.social Fangs and Forges by Alpenwolf Studio Join on Discord discord.gg/BEqNUP5N

Playing Clair Obscur and enjoying it, but confused by the combat design. The system has dozens of moving parts which all add very little on their own, and combine to form something super unwieldy. Makes me want to make a JRPG with board-gamey combat, focused on simple, interesting choices.

The Hedgefrog is only one of dozens of terrible-pun-based enemies you'll encounter in Tomb of the Bloodletter! Wishlist now on steam! store.steampowered.com/app/3531630/... #gamedev #indiedev #indiegame

Hey everyone, I updated the Tomb of the Bloodletter demo with some new systems! FURY rewards you for playing dangerously by increasing your damage. Would love to hear thoughts on the addition! store.steampowered.com/app/3531630/... #indiedev #indiegame #gamdev #roguelite

Trying out a new idea for the "adding things to your deck" system. Take what's there, or sacrifice some health for another option? I think it's an improvement! #indiedev #indiegame #gamedev

My word-game roguelike has options even for people who hate words! "Aged Whiskey" lets you type any gibberish you want, as long as it sounds like a drunken grunt!

This directly scratches the Bookworm Adventures itch and has lovely lo-fi art. Waiting on the full release with baited breathe.
