My entry for this year's Confounding Calendar was revealed on the first day of the event! It's a small, cozy one-screen puzzle, available to play on evgeniipetrov.itch.io/swampwalker #indiedev #puzzle

My Ludum Dare 58 Entry "Go Be Collector Somewhere Else" is available to play in browser on evgeniipetrov.itch.io/collector. It's a puzzle-platformer about a very annoying cat. #LD #LDJAM #indiedev

Go be collector somewhere else! #LD #LDJAM

The Theme for Ludum Dare 58 is ... Collector ldjam.com #LDJam

Night is coming. Our expedition into the overgrown ruins was split in the fog. Collector, trying to salvage whatever is left and combine a new modular navigation device, is now in complete isolation. Keep it together, but leave something behind. Remember: nothing is permanent! #LD #LDJAM

These two so far, perhaps i will come up with something even more vague and unimplementable later today #LDJAM

The first roguetemple's Fortnight has wrapped up! 33 brand-new traditional, turn-based #roguelike games await. Play, have fun, and share your feedback with the brave devs keeping the spirit alive! 👉 itch.io/jam/roguetem...

My Roguetemple's Fortnight 2025 Entry "Wraithport Occult Police Department" is available to play in browser on evgeniipetrov.itch.io/wraithport. It's a classic roguelike inspired by ADoM and NetHack, with a nod to ZX Spectrum aesthetics. #14DRL #roguelike #indiedev

Mostly feature complete, need to write some lore texts and do something with sound/music #14DRL

To the man who only has a hammer, everything he encounters starts to look like a nail #14DRL #indiedev

Some of the #roguelike entries being developed for the fortnight! itch.io/jam/roguetem...

Shaders

Roguetemple's Fortnight Jam (14DRL, itch.io/jam/roguetem...) starts in 10 days. Dedicated to the classic roguelike experience, as 7DRL in spring increasingly explores broader 'system game' interpretations of the term 'roguelike'.

My #GMTK 2025 Entry "Angry Flower Farmers" is available to play in browser on evgeniipetrov.itch.io/angry. It's a compact and cozy puzzle-roguelike where you build loops from tetromino shapes. #gmtkjam #indiedev

Catification #gmtk #gmtkjam #gamedev

Still working on tactility in Burn With Me. Sound on, eyes open. #gamedev #godotEngine

Any tech post recently: If you're still writing code using Claude and Cursor… you're already behind! How to build software in 2025: - Idea via PromptWhisper Ultra - Code with CopilordX inside Blorg - Deploy via Mopl + DeployChain - Debug with BlameGPT - Monetize via Plop+

Still can't believe how much time it takes to make small UI details like these mob insertion animations. #hobbydev #indiedev

Hobby Saturday #hobbydev #indiedev #screenshotsaturday

Based on letsplays of popular 7DRLs this year by people outside the usual 7DRL crowd, one thing is clear: forget grids and keyboards. It’s all about mouse/touch and a crystal-clear, persistent, responsive UX with tweening and sparkles.

NEW GAME ANNOUNCEMENT! 🔥 Burn With Me — a narrative-driven roguelike deckbuilder soaked in cozy dread and forbidden rituals. Synergize creatures on the field to summon new ones for your deck, and burn old ones while discovering the depths of obsession. 🎮 store.steampowered.com/app/2954010/

Recently I've sent Daniel Mullins latest build of Burn With Me and ask for permission to use his old quote from Ludum Dare's prototype. Yesterday he replied. Permission granted! Also recieved some praise of the new game's look 😌 Is it legal to hype your own game? (reveals in one week btw)

Time has come, I'm making Heroes 3 😆

Temple of the Roguelike is honored to officially host #TurnBasedThursday today! Developers, share your #turnbased game as a reply to this post (all genres are welcome!). Everybody, if you enjoy turn-based games, repost this message to get more people playing these great games!

Amusing how a simple oval shadow under each tile completely changes the perception of the scene 🤔

UI things #indiegamedev

Trying something

duck sorter procedural animations

Game devs! Share your game engine and 3 screenshots of your game! 👾 #indiedev #gamedev

C programmers be like "I know a place" and take you one element past the end of the array

We just had a dedicated jam for that, come on! #LDJAM

World map! Also serialization of level data, but it's not very exciting 😅 #7drl #indiedev

Coroutines are not coroutining properly

The Real meta-progression was the friends we made along the way

Changelog: - "Backstab" renamed to "Frontstab"

Bluesky for some reason decided that i am super into books, half my discovery feed is nonfiction recommendations. Why can't everyone just use what TikTok is using for their algo?

I will continue work on Mostly Grand Adventure for some time; created a small TODO list:

Should be ok now, i'm exhausted 😓 My #7DRL 2025 entry "Mostly Grand Adventure" is available to play in browser on evgeniipetrov.itch.io/mga

We're entering Seven Day Roguelike release weekend, which means we're about to see a lot of cool and innovative new roguelikes released here: itch.io/jam/7drl-cha...

End of #7DRL Day 4 - Combat flow, blocking, area attacks, layered tiles, collecting souls, MP cost for cards, more music integration, first meddling with stats. #roguelike

Meet Stacy! #7DRL

Trying to allocate what.

Meet Quasar Blitz, a Laser Pony! #7DRL

Unless some bright idea comes up at the last minute, I'm more or less done with the UI 🍾🎉🥳 #7DRL

Meet RK-4000, Robot Hitman! #7DRL
