🕒50 seconds of gameplay for #ScreenshotSaturday ⚔️Have YOU got what it takes to defend Atlanta?🛡️ #IndieGames #PixelArt #GameDev #TowerDefense #Roguelite

Hey all, we're still trying to get word out about our demo for Acting Out, so if you and your friends want some free multiplayer shennanigans for the weekend, please consider checking out the demo! store.steampowered.com/app/4390170/...

busy af on @usualjune.bsky.social and helping out w 868-BACK *however* you will be SHOCKED to learn i am also working on a new pico8 tentatively titled "masked wrestlers punch dungeon", its yet another entry in the overpopulated "anger management sokoban" genre FURY IS A RESOURCE. USE IT WISELY

The game is called SE!ZE, it's a two-player abstract blending ideas from chess, draughts, tafl and Mariokart, with powerup spaces on the board. It plays fast and strategic. Charles Leclerc was involved throughout the design process, and I am intensely proud of the end result. A career high-point.

High speed score chaser action! 🚙 💨 Charge the nitro, dodge the cars and aim for the highest score ever! www.youtube.com/watch?v=Cknb... #pico8 #indiegames #indiegaming

Look I’m no military expert, but I’m not sure they’ll really work that well underwater…

Did you know? the targeting reticle in Memory's Reach is placed about 5% off the screen center. Watch to find out why! #puzzlegame #gamedev #indiegame #metroidvania

#pico8 arcade game is almost done now. My main aim now is some audiovisual polish and a few design tweaks to handle to better manage enemy spawning and overall game difficulty. I've been calling it Border Bounce but tempted to find a "real" name

As you all know myself and 33 others were fired from Rockstar Games in what we believe was a ruthless and illegal act of Union Busting. We're fighting this tooth and nail. If you are able, please consider donating to our fighting fund so we can hold them to account!! 🌱✊ tinyurl.com/rockstarwork...

I had a such a great time doing death quips for the awful nobles in my game, I have now decided to let those nobles quip BEFORE EVERY TURN. Annoying? Absolutely, and that's the point! #pico8

making an echolocation game for ludum dare #ldjam #gamedev #pico8

Working on polishing up the intro cutscene for the boss, Still super Wok in progress and it probably needs to be a bit longer than it is, but I think its a good start! #pico8 #gamedev #indiegamedev #indiegame #pixelart #umbragame

Announcing: Freeplay is here to stay. Parallels 2026 is coming and we're advocating for games to be funded as art. Read more and get involved: freeplay.net.au/posts/freepl...

Not shared anything from the game for a while (the whole not having time to work it stunts that), but got some neat things in which add character - slipstreaming and spinning out. #gamedev #indiegames #indiedev #godot #godotengine.

Welcome to the first first-person mutator, Godzone 6. Brought to you by the creators of Void Bastards and Wild Bastards (and Card Hunter). Coming in something less than 10,000 years "Be all you probably shouldn't be" Please spread the word of Godzone 6. 💀

Doom is a form of mum game. Any game in which you clean the level meticulously and thoroughly before moving on and then the next time you return its a mess again is a mum game

If I had one piece of advice for new solo devs it would be this: find a good game like yours and copy their UI. don't design your own UI. you are not as good at UI design as you think you are. in fact you are much worse

Very happy to have something underway in #pico8. I spent my time this evening setting up colours and trails in service of player movement feel.

Teaser trailer is on yt if you prefer youtu.be/CmUqJI7bfv0?...

Just chiptune (commission) thingz 🎹🎶

"Sort It Out", the plush girls' new block-matching #pico8 game, is now out not-articulated.itch.io/sort-it-out

Sometimes* your game is about 5 or 6 things and it only needs to be about 2 or 3. *nearly always

With the core mechanics sorted "Oh Nobles!" needed a bit more character, so I created an "old stuffy place name" generator so I could randomly name the battles, and had all the nobles make a little quip when they get defeated. #pico8

You don't need AI generated assets for placeholders or to explore the mood and tone of a scene. At all.

oh, my slopes? yeah they're pretty precise

It's been a while, but my #pico8 project "Oh Nobles!"(the turn-based game where your units are overseen by awful aristocrats that make things worse for you) continues! Along with basic sounds and anims, I've gotten an early pass at a random map generator in, making each battle a little different

I've been working on my next thing for #playdate and maybe even for Steam. Still pretty early. But having fun with this.

🎉 picoCAD 2 is out! 🥳 Model, texture, and animate - in a single lo-fi, easy to use package.  GIF, GLTF, OBJ, and sprite sheet export.  Available now on Steam and Itch! Check it out! picocad.net Thanks for boosting! ❤️ 🙏

With my current contract coming to an end, I'm looking for new 3D animation opportunities. I specialise in stylised gameplay animation, but also have experience with cinematic acting shots. Let me bring your characters to life! :D Reel: vimeo.com/1069486054 #animation #gamedev #3danimation

My most vivid memory from working on this project was an absolutely fantastic bug where a combination of janky physics, under-trained driver AI, and a VERY short and nearly circular track resulted in a literal 50 metre high, swirling vortex of cars that the team immediately dubbed the “Car-nado”

The fact AI is doing more harm to games by increasing the cost of PCs & consoles than AI actually being able to 'make' anything worth playing is certainly a fun little thing to think about whilst I start planning to optimise everything I make to run on a potato.

Goes hard. I can still feel the beige computer I played this on.

I'm going to call this done. Was fun to dive back into doing Creature Animation. If anyone wants their dragons animated, or anything animated for that matter, I'm currently looking for new work :) #3Danimation #animation #dragon #animator

Are the games industry jobs in the room with us now Mark

Take me down to the Parallax city where the far moves slow and the near moves quickly

Got an incredible comment from a player over on @itch.io who not only really liked the game, but also invented their own custom mode/challenge where they only allow two of their gunners to actually fire the cannons (forcing the third to never leave the back line)

it's out now!!! store.steampowered.com/app/3811020/... #BLASTERMANCER

I'm In This Photo and I Don't Like It.

Hi all! 🦝 I'm looking for a new position as a game design lead / director! I've been designing games for almost 15 years now (😳) with 6 of those as a lead, on anything from AAA transmedia worlds to experimental indie projects. My website: robin-v.net Please share! (and friends, say hi!) 💜

An update: Unfortunately Freeplay didn’t secure multi-year funding and is potentially looking at its last year of operation. We’re exploring what comes next & want your input. Read our full statement here: www.freeplay.net.au/survey2026 Help us decide our next step here: forms.gle/W4ZSns1bGCX1...

Would love to speak to any regular international GDC attendees who are skipping this year's show (or were going to attend and have now cancelled) due to the current political climate. DMs here or [email protected], thank you!
