Giving this a go again

BUY INDIE GAMES. PIRATE AAA. BUY INDIE MEDIA. don't have money? PIRATE INDIE MEDIA AND TELL YOUR ONLINE FRIENDS TO BUY IT. I can't speak for everyone, but I imagine many creators would rather have you play their game or read their comic or watch their show, than the $6 a your copy woulda cost you

Mannn why do people care about reviews when watching a movie with friends?? Like I don't care if it's mid AF movie, we're gonna have a blast either way!

Y'know there's nothing stopping us from singing sea shanties at work. Instead we're just out here opening Jira tickets.

They could make a million Minecraft movies but the true Minecraft master piece for me will always be 1000 Players Simulate Civilization: Rich vs Poor.

My phone having an IR remote for all TVs and air-conditioning is still one of the coolest things about it and I'm so bummed for when I have to switch phones since for some reason this isn't a thing in newer phones??

its gotten to the point where I can judge the quality of a discord based on the amount of Mr.Beast crypto scams that go undeleted there. honestly though when are we getting a good app to switch to?!

Vibe coder?? Nah that sounds too fancy I propose the term "Cuck Coder" Oh you like to sit and watch while Claude goes nasty on your codebase huh?

Do other gamers feel an odd sense of familiarity on foggy mornings?

I had to put together a collage recently of all the public projects I've worked on. Feels kinda nice looking at all of them together.

I'm the least capitalistic person in this office and I've gotten atleast 4 people to start saving and investing.... Mission failed?

Happy There Is A Circulatory System Walking Through The Kitchen Day to all who celebrate.

Can't wait till I can sustain myself off of my own game dev because omg would I wanna spill so much about how horrible game dev companies are.

its crazy that in such an interconnected world, we still prefer hiring in the same country/city. Born in the wrong location? Well looks like some industries are just locked for you.

Airports are funny If I'm on time I judge people for being late. If I'm late I judge those that were on time. I must be the coolest person here no matter.

steam is down, quick post your games here instead!

the weekend update for shel is that I've been having fun moving stuff around and not organizing at all

I absolutely hate English proficiency test requirements, the fact that they expire and also the fact that my country was colonized for hundreds of years so I absolutely had to adopt English but for some reason I have to prove that to you??

Do y'all go and refactor code to make things more generic ever? It's a relatively new thing for me but I'm trying to make things more reusable for future projects and it's proving to be quite fruitful.

If you like what we've been doing with shel, contact protocol is another game in the same genre and y'all should go show them love!

It's been a long time coming but @teamgramps.bsky.social is finally prepping for our first commercial release! Shel: The Cure is available to wishlist on steam now, please go wishlist and spread the word!

being at game devs of color this year has made me want to meet more devs from the sub continent, we get a lot of love for pakistan and india but I'd like to meet devs from bangladesh, srilanka, the maldives and obviously the glorious nepal too! send me starter packs if you got them!

whenever I look deeper into someone claiming to be "innovative" why do I find the most uninspiring copy paste crap, or that they just acquired something else that may have been innovative and encrapified it?

🎉 3 DAYS!! 🎉 We've got some exciting news on the way :) keep your eyes peeled on our bsky for more info!

I wonder how many of my posts have been screenshot and posted to random Facebook groups.

Petition to refer to all job roles that deal with data pipelines as Data Mario from henceforth.

Im like inches away from 1k, if the bsky gods could bless me before our next big game at gramps it would be amazing!

The hottest silksong take I keep seeing pertaining to the actual game is literally "enemies and bosses in this area are hard" People! It's a Metroidvania, go a different direction! You'll get something that makes the place you're struggling with easier!

So its been a few years, but what's everyone's go to first wordle guess?

oh hey, thats me.

discord needs to make it easier to search for a server I know I can ctrl+k but also like I wanna be able to search for this specific server that I know is owned by my friend but I dont remember what goofy name they gave it.

I need a friend who sits in voice and tells me about their day while I clean

Happy silksong day everyone!

is it just me or has agile just become a way to make sure things get rushed in 2 days or less noo matter how complex something may be?

Discord can we please do something about all the freaking impersonators??? Like seriously it's at a point where joining any large server just means you get bombarded with DMs that are trying to scam.

launching minecraft in 2025 feels so magical. I think I'm finally ready for a forever save

So team cherry could just delay silk song by another like 7 days and make history....

YO! I am playing peak tonight on my twitch with a bunch of cool streamers and yall should follow and tune in! the twitch is: twitch.tv/myshiogg

jorts are back?! you're telling me I went through tween years peril for nothing?!!?

Something actually being employed and doing game dev every single day has helped me with is: now I'm actually faster when it comes to building systems I have an idea about, like I can just brrrrr and throw a UI together whereas that would take me a few days before.

I get so giddy when I get to use actual math in my programming! Need to compare two differences? Use a square magnitude instead of a full magnitude because we're still comparing two numbers and we don't need to do an expensive square root! Math y'all!

90% of cool games are cancelled before you even hear about them.

WHY IS THERE A LOGIN BUTTON IN NOTPAD NOW?!?! ITS NOTEPAD!!!

figured out how to handle random events in my roguelike sideproject. I wonder if anyone recognizes this reference 🤔

Everything is a weapon in the hands of a capitalist.

I don't really get the hype around games conferences anymore. I'm okay with the part about attending and meeting people. The part where we just see a bunch of things get announced one after the other, yeah that feels weird now.

feast your eyes on the worst team selection screen ever! well atleast it works hehe

This is quite possibly the greatest YouTube video ever made.

So umm are there any bsky feeds or follow packs for content creators?
