The Early Access is launching in a few days. It's not even close to ready, but it's the best I could do with the time I had. I made a promise to release it before the end of the year so I can't delay. I'm still working feverishly, but I don't recommend buying the game until maybe mid January.

Your reviews are so so important to indie games. 500 reviews may not seem like a lot, but to the vast majority of indies it's a ton. Your reviews largely make or break discoverability for a game.

There's no recovering from this one.

Looks like something I'd put in my game. Just needs some random pipes.

Would I get banned for this? #gamedev

If you make an absurd game, you have to go all in. "Why doesn't the penguin eat fish? Not very plausib..." "Hush. Check out this big ball thingamajig. Later hater." #gamedev

Quote your art with glasses on!

That feels like just the right amount of derpiness. #gamedev #indiegame

Steam: 60k. Me: No, 2k. Steam: Best I can do is 20. #gamedev

Steam decided to show me the wrong wishlist balance. I had a mini heart attack then got a little sad. My real count is 2277 by the way.

Toying with another transport method. The cart has a simple "magnetic" point near the front. No other logic. #gamedev #indiegame

Updating the old balloon to work with the global wind. And yes it will eventually come back down on its own if the player leaves. #gamedev #indiegame

SPOILERS I posted a playthrough of my own demo for some reason. #gamedev #indiegame

When I was testing out this shot in the Penguin Festival gameplay trailer, I discovered that I had accidentally made our penguin way too agile. They could glide all over the environment like an octopus. #GodotEngine #gamedev #indiedev

Updated the demo with the sled improvements. Yes much more realistic. #gamedev #indiegames

I've seen two people play the demo so far. One didn't use the parasol at all. I'll add a tutorial if enough people shout at me, but figuring out how and what you can do is the whole point of the game. Movement needs tweaking though. I see it's hard to place items accurately.

"Recreational space travel, mega yachts, tax havens, these are noble pursuits and necessary to sustain life. But poetry, beauty, romance, love... we must automate these to satisfy the shareholders."

There is no acceptable amount of gen AI in a game. Oh your chocolate cake is only 1% dog poo? Okay... why though?

Today is the LAST DAY of the Steam Animal Fest! Be sure to check out all the sales and upcoming games before it's too late!

I regret to inform you Threads still exists and it's just like Twitter, only sadder. I made the mistake of doomscrolling for almost a whole minute. Every second post...

Are you a small or solo dev in need of QA but can't afford it? Please reach out, if it looks interesting, I'll gladly volunteer my time and experience. I have been involved with over a dozen projects that shipped, with many more on the way, and would love to help you too! <3 #GameDev #IndeDev #QA

I've been running a Reddit ad all week and nobody has noticed the comments are enabled. Let's see how long this lasts.

8 months and a whole gameplay trailer later... I will never be free of this curse. ♣️🐧🥲

Bringing the real main island back.

I'm sorry but the Steam Machine isn't actually a cube. It is however, annoyingly close and I demand to know why!

Improving the sled mechanic. #gamedev #indiegames

Making Penguin Festival's VR gameplay trailer was really challenging, but also fun and rewarding. Here's a little postmortem for my own posterity but also in case anyone else finds it helpful! #gamedev #indiedev #GodotEngine

Excited to have Doggy Don't Care listed in Steam's Animal Fest Nov 10 - Nov 17 #indiegames #doggydontcare

After letting Steam notify wishlisters about my demo, deletions have increased. Most were from a year ago. I guess they don't like the direction the game took 🤷‍♂️

If anyone is curious, I'm currently using this asset for the music balls. It was already designed to be played in different orders. Maybe a placeholder or permanent. We'll see. The song at the end of the demo is my own God forsaken creation. There will be more 👀

If you didn't receive an invitation for Animal Fest you can appeal in Steamworks. Mine was overlooked, but I just explained there were no appropriate animal tags to choose from. #gamedev #indiegame #Steam #steamfest

Whelm won't have achievements(or a HUD for that matter). You can blame modern software and websites with their incessant popups. I have been radicalised.
