Oh ffs... I was looking forward to this too...

Lil' Guardsman from indie studio @playhilltop.bsky.social has been completed on stream today and... I love it. The design and writing was brilliant and it was plainly obvious the devs enjoyed making the game. Point n Click x Border Control adventure. #GameReviews #GamesMedia #IndieGames #IndieDev

We're back with what you need - 45 minutes of back-to-back game announcements with zero fluff. World premieres. Gameplay reveals. Release dates. No hosts. No ads. Just games. Be there April 9th - 9am PDT / noon EDT / 6pm CEST.

Day 2 of Lil' Guardsman! Loving the game already and lots more to go! www.twitch.tv/gamertechau #Twitch #Streamer #GoingLive #LiveStreaming #IndieGames

Oh hell no... Not only does this throw out the artists hard work to make it gooner-bait, but Nvidia's showcase doesn't show the scenes in motion. This is apparently realtime, so likely lacks object permanence and details will change every time it leaves the player's vision...

The algorithm is not in artists favor.. If you see this, can you help an indie developer & artist with their first game by sharing this post with others? 🫂 #artistsupport #indiedev #cozygame #pixelart

Okay. At the end of the last season of live action One Piece, I was dreading what they'd do to poor Chopper, but they actually did a decent job with his model. The awkward head positions trying to stop those giant hairpieces from falling off is still a thing though :P

Live starting a shiny indie: Lil' Guardsman! A 12 year old left in charge of the castle gates. What could go wrong? www.twitch.tv/gamertechau #Twitch #Streamer #GoingLive #LiveStreaming #IndieGames

I finally lost my shit about so-called AIs, LLMs, enshittification & everything fucking evil that @officialgrammarly.bsky.social is doing. I'm fucking furious, and not just about what 1 company has done. An open letter to Grammarly & the rest of the LLM hype machine www.moryan.com/an-open-lett...

My lovely Games Media people! I'm on a mission to improve indie game representation in the press. If you have ten minutes spare, please consider filling out our survey to better understand the barriers to achieve this: forms.gle/8MYv3GABUkoj... Thank you! <333

May is coming soon! Which means Mayor May Knott is coming out soon! So it's time to meet some characters! In the demo, you already met Dick Tater, Madame Pastrami, Grandfather Clock, Reel McKoi, Gramma Phone, The Pail Rider, and Durango Silverton! That's a lot of characters! 1/6

I've been running gdcparties.com for a few years now. Some shitty company BlueberryAI decided they'd just take all the source code for the work I've done and reskin it, advertising it as their own. Jokes on them...it was still linked to my events spreadsheet, and now their website looks like this 😉

AETHUS, my solo-indie debut, launches straight to 1.0 (no Early Access!) TOMORROW, March 6th! Story is so often an afterthought in survival-crafting games... Not so in AETHUS - fully voice-acted, there's always a narrative reason to head underground or build up your mining base! #IndieDev

On a bit of a British humour bender lately. Why not continue it with: Thank Goodness You're Here! We live www.twitch.tv/gamertechau #Twitch #Streamer #GoingLive #LiveStreaming

We are making Hitman, except you’re a dog with a grappling hook. 🐶🪝

Word of advice to devs - if you plan to only have your demo up for nextfest, then take it down - chances are it's going to really hurt your coverage. There isn't a single creator I know that isn't basically in battle mode to handle the emails, much less sort through the thousands of demos on steam.

100%

Streamers? Playing DEMOS, you say? Why, if that's really a thing, then perhaps they'd be interested in Mayor May Knott, a creepy-cozy adventure game about rebuilding a haunted ghost town, meeting weird creatures, and listening to ridiculous music! store.steampowered.com/app/2377450?...

I was getting carded at a liquor store, and my Blockbuster card accidentally fell out. The cashier said, “Never mind.” #DadJokes

Twitch & Audible Magic's LLM just blindly scraping any songs they can without consideration for their licencing has led to Twitch muting most of the previously stream-safe NCS music library... #Twitch #NCS #NoCopyrightSounds

THIS GAME IS FOR YOU. YOU ARE THE TARGET AUDIENCE!

The demo for Earth Must Die, an upcoming point n click game was excellent. Ran well and great humour. Can't wait for release!

Heads up the recent Discord survey going around was NOT an account grabber It was on Discord's Qualtrics account they use for every survey and it didn't ask for login/account details/OAuth It was sent to a subset of Discord users via their in-app popup and it got (predictably) leaked and flooded

Don’t scroll. Hold your finger here 👇 (don’t move!) Trust us. 😉
