I'm going to be honest with you all. I haven't been feeling so great, not with game development, but with my "social life". I need some time to think about it. Read more on the Monkanics devblog: monkanics.blogspot.com/2025/11/refl... #Monkanics #indie #indiegames #godot #gamedev #indiedev

Welp, today I learned why I have to do my dev session first thing in the morning. Trying to problem solve after a long day just doesn't work. Read more on the Monkanics devblog: monkanics.blogspot.com/2025/11/too-... #Monkanics #indie #indiegames #godot #gamedev #indiedev #gamedevelopment #Bluesky

I agree. Depth over breadth. it just works better. The people who love your game are going to REALLY love it. #indie #indiegames #gamedev #Bluesky #indiedev #gamedevelopment #indiegamedev #indiegame

That's a great question! Asking for a friend here. #indie #indiegames #gamedev #Bluesky #indiedev #gamedevelopment #indiegamedev #indiegame #Godot #GodotEngine

This applies to ANY programming problem. For me specifically, the Godot Forum. Make sure that statue is made of THE most polished marble, please. #indie #indiegames #gamedev #Bluesky #indiedev #gamedevelopment #indiegamedev #indiegame #Godot #GodotEngine

‪@thedevblog.bsky.social Just like the ground, this is pretty solid. #indie #indiegames #gamedev #Bluesky #indiedev #gamedevelopment #indiegamedev #indiegame

‪@blackjackgabbiani.bsky.social Gibberish is not only funny, but also pretty practical. It keeps the focus on the gameplay, makes localization easier, and can even have a in-universe reason for existing. #indie #indiegames #gamedev #Bluesky #indiedev #gamedevelopment #indiegamedev #indiegame

@cuteosphere.bsky.social Here's my pitch: cigarette smoke bomb!!! It's literally just a pack of cigs tied up and lit on fire. Creating a smelly and damaging AOE. That's my idea for Monkanics at least. #indie #indiegames #gamedev #Bluesky #indiedev #gamedevelopment #indiegamedev #indiegame

A community. I really think having people who REALLY like your game just changes everything about how you develop in a good way. That's what I want to achieve at least. #indie #indiegames #gamedev #Bluesky #indiedev #gamedevelopment #indiegamedev #indiegame

I MADE EVEN MORE PROGRESS!!! I've started on reworking/fixing how the player rotates and how the server tracks this important information. Read more on the Monkanics devblog: monkanics.blogspot.com/2025/11/netw... #Monkanics #indie #indiegames #godot #gamedev #indiedev #gamedevelopment #Bluesky

@gamieon.com I HAD to share this! As a multiplayer developer myself, I think the arcade soccer genre is pretty slept on. I can say the same for most sports games (The aren't bland yearly releases). #indie #indiegames #gamedev #Bluesky #indiedev #gamedevelopment #indiegamedev #indiegame

Now THIS is my type of question! I wake up, then I start working and blogging immediately. Daily blogging is critical to my workflow, as I can log my progress and soothe my sanity. Read it if you wish. #indie #indiegames #gamedev #Bluesky #indiedev #gamedevelopment #indiegamedev #indiegame

@zanzlanz.com Wow, this is impressive! I don't even know how to spell fiziks. #indie #indiegames #gamedev #Bluesky #indiedev #gamedevelopment #indiegamedev #indiegame

I FINALLY MADE A BREAKTHROUGH TODAY!!!!!!!!! I remembered projectiles spawned from the player are actually their children. Now, I can make progress! Read more on the Monkanics devblog: monkanics.blogspot.com/2025/11/netw... #Monkanics #indie #indiegames #godot #gamedev #indiedev #gamedevelopment

I have no idea what half of these words mean, but it sure looks cool. #indie #indiegames #gamedev #Bluesky #indiedev #gamedevelopment #indiegamedev #indiegame

I started late again and got nothing done... again. I'm really in a rough patch right now. Read more on the Monkanics devblog: monkanics.blogspot.com/2025/11/whoo... #Monkanics #indie #indiegames #godot #gamedev #indiedev #gamedevelopment

OK. It's done, I fixed it. My blog is now readable, to you at least. I used the Dark Reader chrome extension for general convenience, but now have to disable it for Blogger. MY EYES! THEY BURN!!!!! IT'S ACTUALLY HORRIBLE!!! #Monkanics #indie #indiegames #godot #gamedev #indiedev #gamedevelopment

For context, I was implementing a coyote time mechanic using coyote code which relied on coyote variables. THEN, I kept a coyote count throughout the devlog for funsies. No spoilers, but it's a LOT of coyote coyote coyote. #Monkanics #indie #indiegames #godot #gamedev #indiedev #gamedevelopment

I'm in the middle of changing all my blog post's text colors from black to white. It's a tedious, but necessary. But then I got to my coyote time post. I'M IN HELL RIGHT NOW!!!! ALL BECAUSE OF MY STUPID PINK COYOTE TEXT. #Monkanics #indie #indiegames #godot #gamedev #indiedev #gamedevelopment

So, I just got some feedback on the readability of my blog. I didn't think about it because I have a dark mode extension. I just turned it off. MY WHOLE BLOG HAS BEEN UNREADABLE FOR THE LAST 27 DAYS!!!! I AM SO SORRY!!!!!!! #Monkanics #indie #indiegames #godot #gamedev #indiedev #gamedevelopment

Welp, I got stumped today. I had more questions than answers on how to actually sync projectile spawns since they're separate from the player. Read more on the Monkanics devblog: monkanics.blogspot.com/2025/11/netw... #Monkanics #indie #indiegames #godot #gamedev #indiedev #gamedevelopment

I just wanted to spread the word! I'm not a Dorkly guy, but I quite like the character designs @izzi8bit.bsky.social made for it. #indie #indiegames #gamedev #Bluesky #indiedev #gamedevelopment #indiegamedev #indiegame

@alecrobbins.bsky.social I support this brave message. Indie devs running small companies have it rough sometimes, especially with the union busting, but I digress. #indie #indiegames #gamedev #Bluesky #indiedev #gamedevelopment #indiegamedev #indiegame

@napasgames.bsky.social This game looks totally RIGGED!!! (Sarcasm) #indie #indiegames #gamedev #Bluesky #indiedev #gamedevelopment #indiegamedev #indiegame #Godot #GodotEngine

@stupidhoroscope.bsky.social Us Godot devs do the dirty work ourselves. Who even needs foster care? #indie #indiegames #gamedev #Bluesky #indiedev #gamedevelopment #indiegamedev #indiegame #Godot #GodotEngine

The Godot 2025 showreel just released! I just wanted to share it. Here's the video: www.youtube.com/watch?v=7ZwE... #indie #indiegames #gamedev #Bluesky #indiedev #gamedevelopment #indiegamedev #indiegame #Godot #GodotEngine

I quite liked Overcooked back in the day. So having a roguelite twist is really interesting. Just wanted to share it. #indie #indiegames #gamedev #Bluesky #indiedev #gamedevelopment #indiegamedev #indiegame

Man, I'd love to have this problem. #indie #indiegames #gamedev #Bluesky #indiedev #gamedevelopment #indiegamedev #indiegame

@sticktrix.neocities.org *gasp* NO WAY!!! Maybe I can do that too! Thanks for the inspiration! #indie #indiegames #gamedev #Bluesky #indiedev #gamedevelopment #indiegamedev #indiegame

GREAT NEWS! I got through the hardest part of training. Then, I made a plan to run my own mini-business alongside my monkey business. Read more on the Monkanics devblog: monkanics.blogspot.com/2025/11/not-... #Monkanics #indie #indiegames #godot #gamedev #indiedev #gamedevelopment #indiegamedev

With all the ongoing issues here on Bluesky I've made the decision to switch platforms. If you want to follow me on Mastadon, just hit up the 90F70 server, subsector 23sd32.g, quadrant 3 (-0 rotation), using auth key "grto-rklc-wiem" filtered through inverted Base 17 encoding… (🧵 1/7)

Goals. That's it. That's the post. #indie #indiegames #gamedev #Bluesky #indiedev #gamedevelopment #indiegamedev #indiegame

@dot-lvl.bsky.social I don't think game loops are "more enlightining" than other design terms. Game loops are just very important and are in every game ever made. It's literally what you do in the game. #indie #indiegames #gamedev #Bluesky #indiedev #gamedevelopment #indiegamedev #indiegame

@dosnostalgic.bsky.social This feels like THE endgame of a successful game developer. Someone played your game(s) a long time ago, remembered your game(s), then they find you and thank you. #indie #indiegames #gamedev #Bluesky #indiedev #gamedevelopment #indiegamedev #indiegame

Hey hey hey.... So uh.... I had a BIG FAT reality check today when I was training for my new job. Turns out, I have to become 100% more responsible WAY sooner than I expected. Read more on the Monkanics devblog: monkanics.blogspot.com/2025/11/not-... #Monkanics #indie #indiegames #godot #gamedev

@chloeappleby.bsky.social Here's a pretty cool opportunity for indie devs I wanted to share. It's less why, and more why not. #indie #indiegames #gamedev #Bluesky #indiedev #gamedevelopment #indiegamedev #indiegame

I definitely want to be apart of this game dev list one day. However, my updates are just too small (blog posts) and frequent (daily). #indie #indiegames #gamedev #Bluesky #indiedev #gamedevelopment #indiegamedev #indiegame

I've got a short, but meaningful devlog today. I feel pretty good and I'm finally getting back into the groove of Monkanics development with networked gunplay. Read more on the Monkanics devblog: monkanics.blogspot.com/2025/11/netw... #Monkanics #indie #indiegames #godot #gamedev #Bluesky

Godot 4.6 dev 3 just released! I just wanted to spread the word. Also, Godot just got a slick new default editor theme. Godot Engine blog post: godotengine.org/article/dev-... #indie #indiegames #gamedev #Bluesky #indiedev #gamedevelopment #indiegamedev #indiegame #Godot #GodotEngine

@tahk0.bsky.social When have games NOT taken a long dang time to make?! That is my 110% sincere question to you. #indie #indiegames #Bluesky #indiedev #gamedev #gamedevelopment #indiegamedev #indiegame

Eh. @miriamne.bsky.social's statement is technically correct. However, I feel like worrying about this is a big ol' waste of energy. Just focus on the present. You'll get a lot more done. #indie #indiegames #Bluesky #indiedev #gamedev #gamedevelopment #indiegamedev #indiegame

Welp, another bummer devlog. I just planned out what I'll do next with networked gunplay. I'm still in a massive slump and I haven't recovered. At least I didn't spiral today. Read more on the Monkanics devblog: monkanics.blogspot.com/2025/11/inte... #Monkanics #indie #indiegames #godot #gamedev

@dorkmachinations.bsky.social I haven't been on the figure/sculpt painting scene in a while, but as soon as I saw this little guy, it reminded me of Skylanders. It's random, I know. But I had to put it out there. It's a really underrated series I like. Anyways, this also a fantastic paint.
