Waking up to a lovely Friday only to realize I forgot to post this yesterday! ‼️ ✉️ 🐢 💨 pencilbooth.com/posts/7246ef... ... #throwbackthursday!

hey so if you hate how Fandom wikis are bloated resource hogs i just learned you can go to "antifandom.com/whatever" and it loads a clean, ad and video-free proxy of the page

(CW: topics of AI) Just wanna make sure my fellow Ren'Py devs are informed of this, in case (like me) they find such information important to consider before using a game engine.

Global Game Jam launches micro-grant program to support indies and emerging talent

#DarkForestGB is a retro turn-based dungeon crawler centered around family, kinship and tragedy. In an animal-centric world, creatures live together in small enclaves called 'clearings' in order to stay safe from the dangerous beasts of the ‘dark forests’ that surround the area. #indiedev

Alright! I've finally put a starter pack together! Right now it's mostly gamedevs and/or artists! I wanted to collect folks with less than 1k followers who are making interesting things! There's only a handful of people here right now, so if you'd like to be a part of it, please let me know!

Happy last day of Bitsummit to those still with the living and those who perished at karaoke.

Question for my fellow #SocialMediaManagers, since I am curious how other people handle this: When do you make a new, game-only account versus just using to the brand account? Do you handle this differently depending on the platform? What other factors go into your decision? #KnowledgeExchange

“What’s the biggest trap in game writing-“ (Grabbing the mic) “Specificity.” “But the forbidden cave IS 5 miles north of here.” (gripping the mic with both hands, kicking my attackers away) “We write in kilometers, the cave was moved last week, and it’s not forbidden anymore, let GO of me.”

Ahahaha who gave me access to a camera? #DarkForestGB @uscgames.bsky.social #gbstudio #indiedev

ok well it took all day but i've added functionality for painting NORMALS inside the unity editor! now if your model comes in and you don't have a hard edge to paint split vertex colours on you can just author them yourself! getting it to not blow up UVs was a challenge lol

Do my #indiedev mutuals still read things on Medium? We announced that my #gbstudio game is exhibiting at the USCGamesExpo today 🌲🐈 medium.com/@kamegumi/ka... #DarkForestGB #gamedev

As far as I understand this game is still secretly a website. WebGL2 running in an Electron-like wrapper. Easily the smoothest thing built on the web platform.

It's announced!!! We're exhibitor #002 in the Pickford Lobby East section of the #USCGamesEXPO 's alumni section! If you're going to be at the EXPO this year, please take photos of the booth for me since I'm still coordinating remote from 🗾 #roguelike #retrodev
