making a #game where you collect food or your familie #dies

game? jam?

Millennials would rather party rock than go to therapy

the goal of pursuing art is noble and people should make the decisions they want to make. but please have reasonable and achievable goals and quit it with the twee rise and grind success stories - the market is lottery ticket you're statistically very likely to not win regardless of how good you are

socialization is done! it plays like a card game: depending on the relationship/mood/whatever 5 cards will be drawn as possible actions. there is no sex yet but i've modeled relationships in a way where hatefucks will be possible

hard to show in a video but a lot of systems got done in the past few weeks: all needs are in, they decay, there are ways to regain them. the map generator can now special "public" buildings like a bathhouse. surely just a few more things and i can make the actual game lol

crafting works now. i made it if you try to make dough out of explosives it kills you

for the past few weeks ive been working on crafting, but its not ready yet. :( i did manage to accidentally spawn all the guys in the same building though

turns out you can just go to a park at 10 am on a sunday and hang out. it smells like flowers. we are so back

'it has no soul' is not really the problem, because it sort of has all the souls in it. the trouble is that they're blended into a homogenous paste. and when you do that, you end up removing any potential for depth. pressing all piano keys at once isn't a melody. aftermath.site/ai-video-gam...

after practicing on kovaak's for a few weeks now i can hit some crazy cumshots

we got a guy pathfinding around the map

the bad thing about games with character creators is that they all end with having to say goodbye to another beautiful sickly looking white woman

Soulslike is what if you had a Zelda game but whenever there's a novel mechanic you bitch on reddit about gimmick bosses

its sad even the boku no natsuyasumi people started showing these completionist percentages. a constant reminder of the borders of the game. the gambling industry just seeping into every facet of culture

We're running a Patreon campaign to help fund Dreamsettler, the sequel to Hypnospace Outlaw. Patrons can play a WIP build of one of Dreamsettler's minigames now, and in two weeks we're releasing Dreamsettler's Page Genie. I look forward to making silly pages together. 🌎patreon.com/Tendershoot

insane twist of fate that as soon as I have a breakthrough like this a new monhun drops. sorry everyone i have not opened Rider since posting this

i agree with this generally but games are not just art/product, stuff like fortnite/cod/mmos are "spaces", and those should strive to be designed for all. which is not accessibility toggles, it means that the experience is equivalent to everyone regardless of ability

Signalis is good. Especially like how wide the space is: you can flail around barely surviving each room, or lock in, cold calculations about what to exterminate, which route to take. Both of these contextualize your character in a horrifying way. Frustrating and sad throughout.

i thought this would be what kills the project but i managed to break the procgen map into streets

heart goes out to games industry people and all that, but its so fucking funny that these guys are trying to look intimidating while posting shit like this

learned a few days ago that Gen Urobuchi has been working on a puppet series for years now. happy to report its really cool. look at this shit

did a prototype for a menu based lifesim. i could make a game like this. will i? idk

kids, you need to get on this. make sure to turn off drive assist in the options menu. play with manual not automatic. generally you want the ride height to be low, and the springs to be stiff. lower final drive for better acceleration. you want negative camber. if you understeer adjust toe in if

been working on a text-based lifesim prototype. i kinda hate how "cozycore" this format is usually, this one will be about struggle

been thinking about how the dynamics of blogging were basically the same as youtube. rare long essays. rigid post farms. one post blowing up could box you into one niche for the rest of your life. saying you are a doing it full time was social suicide. videos won, i guess we just dont like reading

I added 192 art pieces to my Pay What You Want artpack for you to use in your projects, commercial or otherwise! This is quite a major update - the original art pack had 19 art pieces. Make cool stuff, and share this if you can :) chaoclypse.itch.io/chaos-art-pa...

the cool part of ui development is that you eventually go so insane that you start looking at design patterns for distributed databses

the parties i got invited to didn't sound like the ones that would have women in fishnets, so i decided to make a PICO-8 microgame instead, enjoy!!! happy new year everyone!!!! goetworks.itch.io/snakemines

visiting family... away from my beautiful powerful machine... i want to play more stone soup...

if you haven't read it, please check out my long post from 2023 that discusses some history of the like late 2000's/early 2010's indie boom era in more detail, my impressions of it at the time, and a lot of the conflicts and problems it had: ellaguro.blogspot.com/2023/02/the-...

jam game almost done. only a fuck more to do. i need to restock on drinks

based on my experience with heavy drug usage (video games), you don't actually get addicted if you just cycle through them. anyway this week is alcohol

preaching to no one about a thing i intentionally dont advertise, but i feel a little sad that i only managed to write about one game this year. unfortunate side effect of working fully remote that i no longer spend enough time in my head to formulate any sort of thesis.
